Hopelessly Heather

I had Monday off, so I gallivanted around town to drop off customer orders in Avon’s Pearly Hoop Earrings!

These are so much prettier in person–and incredibly lightweight!  I dig the fresh take on hoops manufactured out of a string of pearls, or the fresh take on pearls by stringing them into hoops…however you want to look at it.  ::wink::  If you’re one of my longtime blog followers, you already know that I rarely meet pearls I don’t like, and this was no rarity!  Beauty, beauty, beauty!

On Thursday, I laid it on thick in Avon’s Guiding Stars 4 in 1 Layered Necklace!

While I appreciate the intended look of this piece, but I struggled with it from the word go.  First, after unboxing it, I spent some precious morning minutes untangling the layers.  Once I got it on, it was selfie time, but every time I moved, the bar necklace layer shifted to hang askew.  After finally catching an acceptable selfie, it was time for the close up…so there was a whole ‘nother round of trying to get a shot of it hanging straight.  The shot posted below was the closest I got…and I left the house for work more than a little late.  Luckily, I was slammed at work all day, so when I did pop into the restroom, I didn’t have the time (or wherewithal) to check myself out in the mirror to see if the necklace needed to be futzed with, so I didn’t even think about it again until I took it off at the end of the day–and I managed to drop the dang thing on the floor after unhooking it…so I spent more precious minutes untangling it before I hung it up.  ::exasperated eye roll::

Those are all of the past week’s selfies! What was your favorite and how would you have worn it?!
