Spring Trend - Now & Later Bonus Round

makethemost

A lot of you really liked the Spring Trend Now and Later Series of posts over the past few days. So, I thought I would do a couple more to share over the next week or so (I have lots of other fun posts to share too!).

Today's item, the Statement Necklace, isn't a new trend, but it is one that is definitely sticking around for a while. Personally this makes me very happy as I think Statement Necklaces are a great way to add some va-va-voom to even the most simple outfits.

Glitter Lucite Bib Necklace - Charlotte Russe, $12.50

The Looks:

Necklace-Now

Get glammed up for a night out on the town with this wrap dress, necklace and a fab pair of shoes. Also, layer a pair of metallic fishnets over a pair of tights - you will be sparkly and warm!

Basic Tights - Charlotte Russe, $4.99

In the spring, you can easily shed the tights and still wear the great dress, necklace and heels!

I adore your Spring look. I immediately went to look for the shoes and the jeans. I'm sad that they don't have the shoes. in my size.

Ooh, good call! I love the idea of a big blinged out necklace with worn-in jeans for spring! I'm so gonna try this!
