Make a Statement

Accessorize -- the most important fashion opportunity. Shoes, jewelry, and handbags can make or break an outfit. Necklaces are often the "cherry on top" finishing a perfect ensemble. Women of every age find statement necklaces especially stylish.

This simple gold necklace could be worn with a casual spring ensemble or cocktail attire. With a single moby pearl, this versatile piece would perfectly complete an outfit. Visit http://www.exvotovintage.com to see more of these wonderful creations by the Montgomery, Alabama jewelry designer, Elizabeth Adams.

This fashion forward creation with its antique jade and gold beads makes a bold statement. This Ex Voto design would pair perfectly with a scoop neck blouse or a simple dress. Whether attending a spring cookout or an upcoming interview, this combination equally enhances your favorite pair of jeans or a tailored blouse.

This necklace is an example of how a vintage piece can easily be transformed into modern fashion. My parents worked with Elizabeth Adams to design a modern necklace centered around this antique broach. The cream pearls and unique bee broach accompanied by the gold clasp make an exquisite statement. This piece would be perfect to wear to a church or synagogue service, a luncheon, or that special occasion.

What girl doesn't love a monogram? Monogrammed jewelry is one of this spring's biggest trends. This simple necklace is the perfect statement accessory, and it can be worn with practically any outfit. On a recent visit to Greenville, South Carolina, I found a resource that every girl dreams of -- the Pink Monogram. I have fallen in love with this cute monogram shop.

This spring remember to make a statement with your jewelry. Before heading to a gathering or dinner party be sure to complete your outfit with the perfect accessory.

Stay sweet and stylish!
