What I Wore Today: Layers Upon Layers






When it comes to clothing I am not much of a layerer unless functionality depends on it. But when it comes to jewelry I am a firm believer in the layered look. Coco always said take a piece off, and Rachel Zoe always says add one more piece. But I like to think I am somewhere in between.

When it came to these necklaces I determined the more, the merrier. I like how they all fell together so well. Two of these necklaces are actually belts, but I like long necklaces so I wear them as such. The gold rope chain is vintage, the silver and rhinestone gem is from Coach, and the pearls are ones my mother gave me.
I love this skirt too. Again, layers. Its the only Free People piece I own and I got it years ago. The tiering and mix of tecture is very cool. I love sitting in it because it spreads out all around me, like sitting in a sea of fabric. It's always nice when you start out the day not knowing what to wear and end up with something really cool and really you.
The skirt has a lot of cream and white shades and I wore a slip dress underneath (more white). So the necklaces and their shine were key in making this outfit non-blah. Throw on some Juicy wedges and this summer look is complete.
How do you like to layer?
