Love it when I can find something simple and easy and chic… Its a fool-proof fashion find. Cue the collar. Its one of these easy peasy lovely items that can transform even your basic crew neck tee-shirt.
The collar below was a recent find from my local H&M store. For a mere $25 I snagged this beautifully embroidered collar full of sequins and pearls. Completely gorgeous. A thousand images of how to wear this danced around my head while in the check-out line.
The collar can go with….
*Any basic tee-shirt. Even your boyfriend/husbands.
*A printed dress/shirt – yes, we’re mix-mastering it up. Prints and textures. Love.
*A cozy crewneck sweater for the fall – instant fall glam.
*Your LBD (or for this season, your Little BRIGHT dress)
* In place of a scarf
Really, there are a dozen or more ideas of where we can showcase this collar.
And really… lets be honest, fashionistas. This decorated collar isn’t anything new. Here is an image from Vogue, 1946.
And I can top that – Lets go back to 1615. Check out Frances Howard, Countess of Somerset. Super gorgeous. She knows it. She is rockin’ that collar.
Yes, fashion goes in cycles. So glad it does because I am in-love-with the decorated collar.
And no need to even leave your house to get an amazing collar necklace – I am obsessed with etsy. I mean, just look at this pretty-pretty-pretty collar necklace from seller Breeze Giannasio:
How will YOU wear it?
