Statement Necklaces, sharing my favorite thrift shopping secret!

...rediscovering some of my favorite thrifted statement necklaces.

I love to hunt in thrift stores for treasures, but it's not for everyone. If you're someone who would like to  do more of it but are uneasy or overwhelmed by the massive racks of things or piles of old stuff, start with the jewelry counter. It's an easy and gratifying way to discover the joy of the hunt!

When I get in a "I can't figure out what to wear" rut, especially at those weird in between season times, my statement necklaces are always an easy solution. Dress them up or down with your favorite basics and you're done! This also comes in handy when your traveling and want to maximize your looks. I had one of those days lately and it cause me to rediscover my growing collection of statement necklaces. I also love that every necklace has a story behind it. I thought I'd share a few of my favorites with you! And the best part, these are all high quality, sturdy necklaces and none of them were over $5!

I'm not that "edgy" as a person, but I love statement jewelry that's a little edgy.This chain necklace is a little bold but can be chic too, as demonstrated by Rita Ora above. I picked up this one while on a break from Jury duty, one of the better memories from that week! 

I purchased all three of these necklaces while I was living in Sandpoint Idaho. I had many great times while living there, and I now these remind me of some of those times. 

This one, also a little edgy, is special because I found it in my hometown of Thibodaux while shopping with me mom. I then wore it to my friend Ali's wedding while I was there. I love that it has those memories!

Fun times at Ali's wedding in my spiky necklace!

 Thanks for following along. It's been a fun distraction, now I must get back to organizing the workshop and my materials! Hope you're having a great week and happy shopping!
