how do I love thee: bubble necklace

Franziska and Whitney are hosting a 5 days, 5 ways remixing get together this week, and for today, the theme is accessories. Which seems like the perfect time for an ode to my favorite necklace.

They're not very original by now, I know - you can get versions everywhere, from Etsy and Ebay to JCrew and Baublebar - but this bubble necklace was a big purchase last summer after I coveted one for a while... and it has seriously been worth it. The color is gorgeous, it goes with nearly all of my wardrobe, and it adds a fun twist to almost any outfit. Plus this necklace never fails to garner a compliment or two, which really makes an outfit feel awesome.

I easily came up with way more than 5 examples of how I've worn it:

And I should give credit to Peter: while I heavily hinted that I would like a bubble necklace, he bypassed the knockoff versions I conveniently left up on the computer and birthday splurge gifted the "real thing" to me. Clearly, I love it.

p.s. my version is from JCrew Factory - slightly smaller than most versions, which is much better on short people like me.

Sharing on 5 days, 5 ways, WIWW, and Friday's Fancies (since this necklace never fails to make me feel just that!)

  1. I absolutely love all of the ways that you've chosen to wear your necklace! I have one in navy and in red. I haven't been wearing it as much though because my baby grabs at it! LOL.

  6. YAY for being twins! I really can't believe how versatile this necklace is. Now that I have it, and wear it all the time, I probably would have been willing to spend more for it. It's so fun to see all of your looks. I'll probably be stealing ideas!

  7. Beautiful! I have a cream colored one (a knock-off but my friend made it so...) and I do get a little discouraged when I see it everywhere, but I can't deny that it's an awesome piece.

  8. I love my bubble necklace too :) Your styling ideas with it are great, filing them away.

    I really enjoy reading your blog! I always love your outfits, and I like your blog format (very clean, simple, and classy). I'm a pretty new blogger and would love if you shared some blogging tips, ie on taking outfit pictures and also what program you use to make your collages and photo clip art!

  12. Cute! I really like the color of your necklace! I like how different the necklace looks in every outfit. It adds a focal point to a plain black maxi dress and a pop of color to a layered outfit with neutral colors and prints. Very nice!!
