Make A Statement Without Spending A Fortune

<p>I have been on Instagram over a year now and when I started, I began with canid pics of me going out, but I also have ones in which I post clothing and jewelry. One of the very first pics I uploaded exactly 54 weeks ago was one of some statement necklaces I had purchased at my job. The volunteer department has a sale twice a year and they have all kinds of costume jewelry that you find in Macys, Penneys, and Kohls. I have a thing for jewlery of all kinds. I often joke and tell my coworkers I will be ok at 98 in the nursing home as long as the nursing staff puts on my cheetah print earrings, necklaces and red lipstick. I can honestly say that this love of larger size necklaces came from my 88 year old Gamma (grandma). This lady to this day when going out has to put on her double strand pearls or big necklaces. And they always make a statement with her outfits.
So, statement necklaces, what are they? And, how are they to be worn? A statement piece as I call them is an article of clothing or jewlery that completes or just makes the overall ensemble stand out. You know, gives some moxie, or adds some panache to the outfit. I feel that you can wear them anyway you want. You can layer them with other necklaces or even on top of scarves. I am always constantly on the prowl for items to add to my wardrobe to accessorize my look. And now, I have noticed that statement pieces have taken over instagram, which is awesome. The power of social media has taken our fashion lives to a whole different level. It has opened up so many women to not being afraid to explore the possibilities with fashion. However, it can lure you into buying very expensive trendy items. So, buyer beware... Check on sites such as Etsy or Ebay or even go thrifting for these items if you don't want to spend $120 on the pricey name brands. After all, only you know how much you spent. Right?
