A huge trend for Spring/Summer 2009 is statement jewelry -- big, bold scene-stealing jewelry. But I'm sure there are many of you who, like me, don't need a fashion magazine to tell you when your favorite jewelry is in style. I've always loved wearing jewelry, especially earrings. In 6th grade I wore earrings that would make Salt-n-Pepa jealous (and maybe Spinderella, but who knows...). Hoops so big, I could (and did) fit my arm through them.
I got my ears pierced when I was 6 months old. Mom promises a doctor did it, but I was born in a third-world country (Panama City, Panama) so who knows...
This morning, I tried 4 different necklaces before opting on these shoulder-grazing earrings -- some would say it is "statement jewelry," but I've had them since before anyone coined that phrase. These earrings were a gift from my mother. She bought them for me in Paris, which automatically raises the chic factor. And if you think they look heavy, you are right.I think what makes fashion fun is pushing limits. And I like to push it, push it real good.


Ahahaha! I was just listening to that song yesterday while mowing the yard. :) You look amazing, my dear. Simply amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks Amy -- I listen to it on the iPod at the gym. Something about it gets me going. Our generation's hip hop was so much better than today's crap :-)
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! Seriously world-class, doll.
ReplyDelete...and don't underestimate that waist--that is certainly not just belts and photo magic dust!
ReplyDeleteMax -- I heart you deeply. And believe me, knowing how to turn in properly for a photo helps immensely -- I wish I could logically walk through life in that pose :-)
