    I adore big, big, big necklaces! I have one really long and heavy in gold colour.
    My favourite : Rachel Leigh chunky necklace, and Lee Angel gold bead necklace.
    Thank you for comment, my weekend was excellent - first snow here.

    I love these bib-look necklaces. I also think the heavy necklines on the dresses are a beautiful touch. It's like the designer's vision extended into jewelry for a moment in time.

    Nice to hear from ya! :D

    I hope you enjoy Thanksgiving as well, and spending time with the relos and family.

    I'm in love with the fifth one, the Requiem neckelace - I believe? and the Valentino one. It looks gorgeous on the girl.

    You're right, it is nice eye candy for the hols. And a nice way to make a fashion statement.

    i love them. I made a fringe one and it's for sale in my etsy shop but I don't want to sell it because I love it so much. Working on a couple other pieces too. These will most likely go out of style quickly then come back with a vengeance in a couple years. just my theory though. Loving them!!!

    One retailer was trying to force me to do necklaces like this, so I'd fit in with the rest of their merchandise. My feeling was is if everyone else is doing it, why should I?
