This past weekend, I got to lunch with the fabulous Bessie of Bravoe Runway! We were ladies who lunch, or LWL as my friend A* calls it! It’s funny because we were both wearing leopard print! Great minds think alike! Where’s the pic? Great question. We were so engrossed with our conversation that we never got a picture. Bad bloggers, I know!

Luckily, Bessie warned me about the weather in Chicago – cool and wet. Mr. S had a conference there so I tagged along. {Background: I can jet set everywhere is because my little brother works for the airlines. He isn’t married so I’m the lucky one listed as his companion! Sometimes, I get stuck because I’m booked as a standby passenger. But no complaints here!}
The cashmere sweater is thin, but still keeps me warm – perfect for layering. I had a jacket on for strolling outside. And I didn’t want to wear too much black so I opted for brown boots. If my pooch can wear a brown and black combo, then I can too! These were my $40 Dillards find! FYI: Dillards has great after season shoe sales. I’ve gotten wonderful leather heels for $20 and boots for $40!
I’m actually wearing two longer necklaces! It’s really easy to layer necklaces!
First, take two long necklaces of similar length.
Second, loop them together. Keep the clasp section on the sides (they will be hidden in back).
Third, use a necklace clip to grab one side. You can also use a pretty ribbon or scarf as shown here!
Fourth, grab the other side and clip (or use the ribbon/scarf and tie it in a bow)! Voila! You’ve layered two necklaces!
Have a fabulous Wednesday!
