Chunky Necklace
Perhaps this is part of my thoughts about jewelry, or it's just another blogpost about one of my necklaces. The thing here is really that this necklace is so out of character. I usually go with subtle smaller pieces, from time to time when the trend brings me something a little bit more of a statement it's usually happening with the choice of a pair of earrings or the bracelets.
