even the word costume is fun. i was never a big fan of halloween (except for mine and mel's stellar, award winning turn as Lindsay and Sam last year) because, well, i get dressed up as something different every day. just to suit my mood. the daily costume, if you will.and as much as i love the good stuff - the real deal, the sparklers, i also greatly appreciate the costume jewels. for obvious reason. they are much easier to collect without guilt. ergo, one can have more, and one can, if one is like me, stack happily without feeling too badly...
one of the places i like to go to acquire said items (because even in costume, i like it to be good quality. honestly, what is the point of buying it if it falls to crap in one wear? honestly) is Banana Republic. they make nice costume jewelry, it's a simple truth. so as i do, i was cruisin for pretties. and i came upon this little doodle. i have never really grabbed on to the trend of the bib necklace - i like the way they look, and i kind of play with the Elizabethan era-ness of it all in my mind. but i never have been struck to the point of purchase. until now - this is just user friendly, you can wear it with a ton of different things kind of fun. t-shirt and jeans? yes. black turtleneck and skinny pants? yes. sheath dress? yes. (i could go on, but i am imagining you get the idea)
costume up and face the day!
