LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!! Gorgeous selection Carrie! I love oversized necklaces, bracelets, rings and some earrings. I tend to stay away from oversized gold jewelry though because it can look very gaudy.
Thanks for your lovely comment darling! I think I may try a nice, sunny yellow nail polish like yours next!
Hi Carrie, thanks for visiting my blog!
I absolutely ADORE over-sized jewellery, especially chunky beads and big bangles. *sigh* role on payday...
Boe x
thank you so much, sweetie <3
and i love this latest post, so many gorgeous things!!
I'm in l-o-v-e with this post!! So great!! Totally smitten with the Dries bangle necklaces and the Lanvin ones too! I'm thinking of making my own necklace ala Dries soon with some of my chunky bangles!
Thanks, Gals!
D: totally agree on the gaudy gold, but think when worn in over-the-top amounts, it can be kind of ironic and therefore okay?
Boe - likewise!
FC: You are quite welcome!
Crave - excellent idea!!

I have been so into necklaces lately. OMG, we are totally on the same page. I love the Givenchy multi strand in gold. Just savvy!

So many amazing necklaces! I love the ones from Gucci, the are my favourites!

Trying to see how long it takes me to get into the chain mail look ;)
A wonderful post.
I most like the Lanvin pearls and organdy necklace - so classy.
Lovely chunky pieces like this really add drama to an outfit... Now to force myself to actually reach for jewellery when I get dressed...

Really love the oversized necklace, but it's quite difficult to find the cloth. But anyway the oversized necklace makes our fashion more outstanding and unique. Love it. http://pailinfashiondesign.blogspot.com/2009/12/do-we-need-oversized.html
