How I Wear MY PEACE of jewelry - Necklace layering options

Image
Just made MY (new) PEACE of jewelry  It's a necklace set mixing a multi-strand link chains  and one other necklace that features an awesome antique African brass ring from Nigeria. Each PEACE can be worn alone  Made of bronze and brass, these type of rings were used as fare tokens for transport in Nigeria. I don't know how old are these rings I have, but I fell in love with their simplicity and sturdiness. . As for the multi-strand link chain necklace, it's made of variety of chains that I have.  I don't like MY PEACEs to look new.

But now that it's cooling down, I can pull out my ankle boots from the back of the closet. I love ankle boots. Not  brand new one,  but the used ones I find at thrift stores and/or online. You don't have to pay a lot for cool boots. I don't remember the last time I paid over $40 for boots.

But before I do that, I'd like to give a shout out to Shiela's blog. I came across her blog because of the post "I See Dead People" It's an awesome post. I thought I was the only one who liked cemetaries, but she shows I am not alone and how special they are. As for her blog, it centers around how to style second-hand clothes into fashionable outfits.
