stack attack - starring the neck

i am a stacker. i am not sure where it comes from, perhaps from my weird emotional attachment to pretty things, breeding a desire to pile them all upon myself until i collapse in a heap of beauty... dunno. i stack my rings, my bracelets and my necklaces. because i love them.

today i'm feelin' neck-y, so we will go there. this is my latest pile of passion. (it will vary depending on mood, and the mood can last for varying amounts of time. there may well be future neck-y stack posts)
it stars Me&Ro, Tiffany, and a sweet little flower from Fragments. this is just my own personal neck - i strongly urge ye gals to stack away out there with what lovely things you have in your own jewelry box. it's fun and pretty and an easy way to make a plain outfit look dressed up boho style. (a running theme in my life)

i was wearing three of these little lovelies when i purchased the fourth, and the woman at Tiffany said "i love the texture you're creating with them". i'm not entirely sure what she meant with the texture, but hey, a compliment is a compliment so i said thank you and check please.

the teeny flower pendant is from Fragments. i'm not sure of the designer (sorry designer - i love your flower!! it was just a long time ago!!) but it's a lovely store to wander around with loads of beautiful sparkly things to make a girl feel giddy... and pretty.

the two bezel set stone necklaces are Tiffany... from the "diamonds by the yard" collection. they have just added sterling silver to the mix - which makes it far easier on the old wallet! online they only show diamonds, but in the store they also sell the collection with aquamarines, which takes down the price even further - and it's really pretty. good + good = "super fantastic"

the longest necklace is from Me&Ro. i am OBSESSED with their jewelry. i have a couple of pieces, (can't go too nuts with collecting, as i'm not raking in a ton of money at the mo, and it's a bit pricey...but god is it gorgeous and worth it.) including a ring giftie from the bf. and i plan on adding bits and bobs as i can afford. it is beautiful, bohemian-tastic, and i love it. in the show Weeds, Mary Louise Parker's character Nancy Botwin wears PILES of this stuff, and it always makes my eyes go wide and my heart pulse with envy. in case you didn't get the point, i like the stuff.

phew. that was a bit long. sorry my dears. the point of the matter is - PILE IT ON. collect things that you love, and don't be afraid to wear them together. mix and match, have fun and look beautiful doing it!
