I love the dramatic accessories, especially the necklaces and belts. The minimal outfits really form a backdrop for the accessories. I love the large necklaces. I'm large (not only tall), so I can wear all of this crazy stuff. I turned a belt composed of different pierced oval pieces with long tassels into a necklace last winter. No one has ever figured out that my "necklace" is really a belt. I wear it with a simple black sheath dress. I can see that I'm right in style. :-) Who would have thunk it? I certainly don't follow trends much anymore. I guess my personal style and the style zeitgeist coincided for one brief shining moment. I wonder when it will happen again?
