Hi Everyone!
First, my heart, prayers, and thoughts go out to the families who are directly affected by the tragedy in CT. My post is really an attempt to think about something else. I am SO darn tired of seeing/hearing these stories about mass shootings. My heart is so heavy right now.
Before I heard this news, I stopped by the J. Crew retail store. I’ve been eyeing the following jewelry pieces, so I decided to grab them during the 30% off promotion.
The Flower Lattice Necklace in Crystal:

The Crystal Color Statement Necklace:
I’ll post an IRL picture of the Crystal Color Statement Necklace this weekend.
And, finally, Lisa_Groves pointed out in a previous post that Elizabeth from “The View” was wearing the Scattered Sequin Sweater on Wednesday. Thanks, Lisa!!! Here are pictures of her outfit:
What do you think of these jewelry pieces? Do tell!
Thanks for stopping by!
Yep. I hear ya. Disgust. horror. disbelief.I love the dark blue 'sapphire' as the main colour in the statement necklace- really beautiful and surprising. Thanks for posting something pretty to look at.
thatdamngreendress: I totally agree with you, disgust, horror, and complete disbelief. My heart just aches. I love the dark blue sapphire in this necklace too! And, you're welcome. I needed something pretty to look at as well.Thanks SO much for being here!
Oh I love both especially the crystal color statement necklace. It would go with so many outfit colors. I too am so saddened by the tragedy. I was at the mall all day yesterday with my mom Christmas shopping and heard the news on the radio on my drive home. I can't imagine the sorrow. I feel so frivolous reading blogs and shopping but it is just sosad to watch it all on tv. I need a diversion. I guess.
Shopping Celle:I'm with you, the Crystal Color Statement Necklace will match a variety of outfits. Like you, I am so saddened. I keep trying to think about other things because my heart is really aching.Thanks SO much for being here!
Horrible, horrible news, and to hear that everyone thought of this guy as a genius and extremely intelligent turns my stomach!I would wear the first necklace to an evening soiree with a black dress for maximum effect. :DWhat is THAT on Elizabeth's head? Plus I think she needs a root touch-up very soon.
Rose: I totally agree with you–this is horrible news.OOOOOO, great styling idea for the Flower Lattice Necklace!!!And, LOL about Elizabeth's hair. I can't stop laughing!!!! You're SO right.Thanks SO much for being here!
My heart is broken by yet another preventable tragedy; just the thought of those helpless children… Something has to be done to stop these horrific events from happening. Part of it, I think, is to stop making macabre celebrities of these criminals. On a brighter note (and thank you for this!): Both necklaces are beautiful, and the flower lattice one is absolutely stunning. You could wear that baby with a ripped t-shirt, and still look rockin'!
Rynetta, thanks for the reviews! I was wondering which necklace you like better–flower lattice necklace in crystal or crystal cluster necklace? I ordered the flower lattice necklace but can't decide!
