When I was little, I would spend hours playing dress up with my moms 80's style clip on pearl earrings a la madonna, and my grandma's 'vintage' accessories. Everything from novelty hair clips to brooches and fanc(a)y rings that my grandfather bought my grandma, Abba, for anniversaries and just because.
Over the years, I've collected accessories from both Abba and in my travels, flea market style. Some have come my way thanks to boyfriends (dun dun dun), and others from best friends, charm bracelet style. Each piece telling a story, marking a memory, serving as a reminder.
My latest craze, consists of
midi rings and
hand chains. I don't know if I'd ever turn down a massive statement necklace - after all, the bigger
the better?…. - but for day-to-day, I gravitate towards subtle, more delicate pieces. Details that are the perfect match for barely there summer tanks and short-shorts.
