FASHION BY THE RULES: Focus, The Neck

This week, I thought that necklaces should be the center of attention, as last week’s featured Kenneth Lane torsade garnered so many comments. When I was Vice president of Miriam Haskell, during the 1990’s, it was always a pleasure to start a new collection or grouping, as inevitably, that always started with a necklace. This accessory can be the one stop finishing touch to so many outfits and now that spring is finally arriving, I thought this is the right time for this particular feature.

With my usual researching, I was able to find so many alternatives, but I just wanted to highlight the most special pieces. The torsade, which is a multi strand twist necklace, seems to be one of the most popular styles as it says the most, without a lot of effort. Even in the Spring 2010 collections, this closer to the neck design, remains an important accessory. Always keep in mind that when you stick to the metallics, such as gold. Silver, gunmetal or pearls they are seasonless and always in style.

In the category of accessories, it is easy to find a lot of bang for your buck and no better place than here in this selection. It doesn’t matter if you are a Saks shopper, or a habitué of QVC or even a regular at The Limited, there is ample selection everywhere and a more than ample amount of price points. Spend some time finding what suits you best, as with the warmer weather upon us, there is no easier finish than this. Whether you wear shirts, tank tops, tube tops, tee shirts, sleeved or sleeveless, this is the accessory to own.
