And here she is:
While these pants are the most flattering I own... they make my tiny feet disappear!
I broke one of my usual fashion rules, which is "no necklaces over turtlenecks". The last time I did it, it got pretty good reviews. But this time, I feel like it's ageing me. Your thoughts?
A quick closeup of the necklace to refresh your memory (or to show the newbies!):
I finally remembered what the stones are: fossilized coral.
And the coordinating earrings (the set was made by me at the local bead shop one day when I got bored):
The fuzzy jacket paired with a sweater is, at the least, pleasantly warm.

Maybe put the back of the necklace under the turtleneck fold-over?
ReplyDeleteExplain to me, in detail, why you feel those pants are flattering.
I didn't say they were flattering... I said they are the most flattering I own (that currenly fit). All my pants suck.
ReplyDeleteHey, this isn't fair... I tried a necklace over a turtleneck recently and it was so awful I vowed never to do it again. But on you, it works. Can someone explain that to me?!
ReplyDeleteFair enough, sis. Have you set a point (weight or time) when you're going to brave pants-shopping?
ReplyDeleteShy, maybe it's the monochromatic trick she used? Did yours contrast?
Ok, the title of your post made me laugh.
ReplyDeleteI don't think the necklace-with-turtleneck is ageing at all. But agree that maybe you need to tuck it under the fold.
Freeda- I have picked a point at which I'll go shopping... just not quite there yet. Soon....
ReplyDeleteI love necklaces over turtlenecks!
ReplyDeleteMay I add to the mix and say I hate turtlenecks period? They always give the impression that one has no neck. That said, I do like the jacket!
