not your average neck decor

I have been blown away lately by the beautiful necklaces I have stumbled into on etsy.  I am not quite sure I have anything to wear with them, but I want them regardless.  They are works of art for your neck...deserving of an occasion or outfit all their own...

I've loved bluemoss, and I'm excited to go check out muntedkowhai! Something about those romantic top two just took my breath away. Makes me want to throw on a champagne colored chemise, don one of those wild and exquisite necklaces and go romping in a meadow barefoot. Did I just say that publicly in your comment section? I think my head must be in the clouds today. Great neck-ware, my dear:)
hugs,
