Heavy Issues



Shirt, Necklace & Tights (The Limited); Skirt (Gap); Shoes (Kohls); Watch (Fossil )

This necklace literally weighs five pounds!  Not only is it heavy, but the stones clang against each other when I walk... which is basically the equivalent of me wearing a cow bell in the office.  This was especially unfortunate since someone put a bag of Hershey's Kisses at a table near my desk - so every one of the seven times I got up to grab one it was quite obvious.  Good thing the printer is also close by... After the third drive by, I took a few extra steps and grabbed a piece of blank paper to try and save face :)

Loving all our accessories! And yes, sometimes when I wear big bell bottoms I have the same issue when I move (just swishing instead of clanking)

That necklace is awesome and totally worth the noise. I have a necklace that's a little noisy and, of course, my office is far away from everything...printer, bathroom, candy dish.

I love that necklace! I have one that makes a lot of noise when I walk, so I can relate. I always feel weird wearing it because everyone can hear me wherever I go hahaha. :)

I love the stipes with the dotted tights. A statement necklace like yours always finishes an outfit (even if it sounds like a cowbell). You know you are truly woman if chocolate can distract you! Happens to me all the time! ~ RHoda

it must have sucked carrying around a 5 pound necklace around your neck but at least you look like a tall glass of water!
