So this is one of those accessories that I am totally obsessed with but will not buy because:

a. hello, no necklace is worth 690 dollars unless there is ice involved.

b. i used to bead/make jewelry/whatever you want to call it, so when i see stone necklaces like this and i totally love them (my dad's family is from tejas, and women here wear BIG jewelry like this all year round, whether the global/ethnic trend is in or out.... holla to tejas), i have a moment of sticker shock because there is no way the stones in this necklace cost more than 200 bucks... hello, they aren't sapphires and emeralds here.

c. this is one of those things i think is really tight but i kind of have no idea what i would wear it with cause it is suuuuch a statement piece. like maybe just a black tshirt and frye boots and jeans? still, it is the cutest ethnic jewelry i've seen this season (besides the loads of bangles i will be buying soon enough), so i wanted to add it...

Draws attention to your neck.

What do you get when you combine black onyx, tiger's eye, red jasper, ceramic, and glass beads? A very busy, beautiful, loud necklace. Wear with a strapless dress to showcase this piece and be prepared for many compliments.
