As I mentioned earlier today, I keep a well edited wardrobe mainly due to space reasons. Although, more and more I've started to realize that clothing-wise you really don't need much. I'd say on the whole - I probably spend 30% of my wardrobe budget on clothes and 70% on accessories - shoes, handbags and let's not forget the power of gorgeous jewelry!
One necklace can totally make an outfit - it always fits - and can provide limitless outfit options. (and lucky for me - and for all other small closet owners - it takes up far less real estate than say a new dress, skirt or blouse.)
Let's take for instance the gorgeous Ivy necklace from my fabulous sponsor Charles Emerson Designs.
