The ramblings and obsessions of a longtime Avon lady

I banged out Monday in Avon’s Modern Woodlands Earrings.  These (lucky?) horseshoe shaped earrings are a medium weight – not as heavy as I anticipated, but not light either. Definitely pretty and interesting. The hanging part moves freely and sometimes slips so it gets hung up with the ball near the post. However, it only happened twice during the entire day I wore them, so it wasn’t a never ending annoyance.

Those who know me know I have a serious necklace habit with a tremendous lack of impulse control when it comes to chokers. There is rarely a choker I’ve met that I didn’t then covet or own. My love of chokers began when I was a preteen. I was drawn to the Victorian era ladies who wore chokers and I thought they were beautiful and elegant. I figured I could achieve a bit of their elegance by crafting my own choker with ribbon. Thus, my love affair with chokers was born.
