I’ve never considered myself to be super trendy. I more or less follow what’s going on around me, trying to bring at least a little individuality and personal style to the mix. My “goal” is not to be trendy, but just to be put together. As a working mom of three, that is ambitious enough! However, this VV Boutique adventure has helped me to be more aware of what’s going on in the greater style community and maybe just maybe get to the game a little sooner than before.
For example, I’ve been seeing statement necklaces with button-up tops here and there, alerting my attention to something that might actually work in my world. Then a recent email from J. Crew piqued my interest and I had to try this trend! Here was the inspiration:
And here is my take on it:
I got a lot of compliments on my blouse and necklace, and of course I was more than pleased to share that my top cost “a latte” and my necklace is one-of-a-kind! I liked this trend so much that I will be trying it again with my other button-ups… once I extend some *good will* toward my sis and acquire some suitable necklaces! (You know the one. She and I have a date. If she’s not sold by you know when, she’s mine. Agreed?)
