Every Woman's Must Have Fashion Accessory - A Personalized Necklace

Carrie Bradshaw on Sex in the City is a style icon for many women. If you have watched the show, you know her famous Carrie necklace and how much it means to her. Many women have tried to duplicate that special feeling she portrays on the show. I feel that every woman needs to have a necklace or piece similar to her Carrie necklace. It's a simple statement of who you are. If you don't like the idea of having your name around your neck, becoming even more popular is wearing a necklace with your initial. This is my must have fashion accessory. If you choose the right one, it is simple, classic and will withstand ever-changing fashion trends. I wear mine as a simple statement to a new trendy outfit, and yet a classic piece to wear to work. I actually have two, and my friends and family know that the only reason I take mine off is to switch to the other one.

The first one I purchased was a college graduation gift to myself. I chose a necklace that is white gold with small diamonds in the L. This necklace is simple enough to wear with jeans and a T-shirt yet nice enough to wear with a little black dress. I also love how the small diamonds sparkle when it catches light. It's just enough to make it awesome. The best part is that I purchased it on sale for under $90. Unfortunately, the chain- jewelry store that I purchased it at is no longer in business. However, since I chose quality material, it's never needed to be replaced. Everyone loves this piece and I am often asked where I purchased it.

The second initial necklace I have is a simpler necklace. It's sterling silver and the pendant is also a simple silver cursive lowercase L. The cursive of the necklace gives it a fancy enough design, but again is versatile to wear with jeans and a tank, or with a suit to work. I found this necklace at Tiffany's and it runs about $150. You can find yours at www.tiffanys.com. Tiffany's offers many different styles of initial necklaces in varying price ranges. They offer quality pieces at reasonable prices.

Once you find yourself wearing your necklace, it will become a special piece of who you are, and a staple in your wardrobe. Many people will ask you where you found it and next thing you know, you'll be the trendsetter in your group!
