It's all in the wrist...

I studied abroad in Greece my last year in college and my biggest take away was not the amazing sites I got to visit, but instead it was the jewelry.

It wasn't just the amazing style and stones, but rather the amount everyone seemed to wear.  As a result, I have become obessed with over accessorizing.  I shushed the imprinted Coco Chanel rule of "all you have to do is subtract", and instead layered away, especially on my wrists.

All of the braclets and rings I wear all have a special meaning (even the one I stole from my mother, who I believe purchased the bracelet at a Papyrus).  I look at my wrist and can tell you about each piece and where it came from, which to me is the best part.

Current Obsession: Chanel pink and gold wrap chain braclet.  I have a little fund set aside for this purchase...It is TDF (to die for).


Current Inspiration: I stupidly have not saved any pictures of Greece on my new computer, so this one of me will have to suffice. I agree with Coco on everything, but her take one off rule.  Clearly...



(Rings-David Yurman, Maxfield's, Watch-Movado, Bracelets-David Yurman, J. Crew, BR, Papyrus :), Private Jeweler (Thank you G-MA).

Currently causing my temporary insanity: Layering on dogs?  Now this is just wrong...

BTW-I bought a jacket, and no it was not NEON.  Black, surprise surprise.
