Rachelle D Giveaway

Update: this giveaway is now closed. Thanks for participating!

Happy Monday! I'm thrilled to offer you a beautiful giveaway from Rachelle D.  I contacted her about hosting a giveaway for you all because I bought a necklace from her for each of my bridesmaids when we got married. You can see a few of them on my friends here!. I have never forgotten how beautiful those necklaces were, and I knew that you would love them, too!

Rachelle was generous enough to provide this gorgeous necklace and matching earrings to one of my readers. When I asked her about her creative process, she said simply "I enjoy creating pieces that are romantic and vintage inspired and am inspired by eras of the past." How lovely.

Here, I paired this incredible necklace with a casual outfit to show how it can really dress up anything. Many of you ask me about how to dress up a really casual look, and here's how! For a truly casual look, like this neutral top with skinny jeans, I love to use colors that are similar to those in the necklace or scarf that I'm wearing. It helps make the look more intentional, don't you think?

I also like to echo the shape of the necklace with the shape of the shirt that I choose. Here, both have a pretty, feminine curve. The drape of the cardigan is also feminine, calling on the femininity of the flower.

For a work outfit, I stuck with the gray on gray theme. Thanks to my husband for the early morning picture-taking! Although I'm not sure why you got my shirt winging out like that...

Or, this necklace also really pops with a dark top. Here, I put it with a wool sweater dress with a deep V.  While the neutral on neutral above is sweet and soft, I love this necklace against something dark, too. For a darker shirt, I'd love to pair this with gray or a dusty rose pink skinny jean.
