………………….The FALLING LEAVES & EARRING SET……..J325475, is coming at the end of the month, early Aug……With OLO [ on line only] items I never know for sure when they will be posted……….The Falling Leaves necklace and earring is a new direction I am taking in jewelry…..a more DELICATE direction. Does this make statement necklaces obsolete?…absolutely NOT……Do you wear one style top or T shirt or sweater…..I’m sure the answer is a resounding NO……”Variety is the spice of life”…..So why the new direction? I was feeling with the surge of more casual clothes there was going to be a need for a different type of jewelry…….something less serious, lighter, airier…..less of a statement….. I know many have gotten used to seeing or even wearing statement necklaces with causal clothes, but it definitely makes casual more dressy……This new direction in jewelry was meant to be comfortable worn both ways….casual and dressy…whichever you chose….When you are going out for errands, and just want something simple to wear without making such a major statement….this is the necklace to wear…..This is the necklace to wear with T’s, Hoodies etc……..Of all the colors this Leaf set is avail in the RUSSIAN GOLD is probably the dressiest. It takes on the look of something that may have been worn in ANCIENT ROME or GREECE. The leaves have a hand made ARTISAN look…..The necklace is approx. 40 inches long to 43 inches long with the extender. This length will give you many options on how you can wear it, as you can see from the photos above. It looks wonderful as a single strand worn long…..doubled around the neck….. cross body [this will only work for small women]…..or even as a belt [ but that will take a little manipulating]……..With a set of two….the look immediately becomes more dramatic. The photos on the left show two necklaces worn different ways…..two long, two doubled, two that are worn one long and one doubled…and cross body in different directions. The necklace and earring are SUPER LIGHT WEIGHT, so for those of you who take that into consideration…..these pieces are feather weight. The actual leaf itself has a wave effect so it catches the light, and has a wonderful gleam. You can see from the profile of the earring, which is the same component as the necklace, just how thin and delicate they look……However delicate they may look….they are strong pieces.The chain I chose for this necklace is delicate also…but not whimpy. I think the proportions are perfect…….It doesn’t matter what size or how tall you are…….this is a necklace that works for everyone…..I think you will have fun trying the necklace different ways and even combining it with pieces you already own……We are offering the EARRING as a set with the necklace because it was more cost efficient not to price the earring separately with separate boxes, and shipping. The Leaf is approx. 2 1/4 inches long and is pierced only. Again, it is the same component as the necklace and these are very very light weight….you won’t even know you are wearing them……not until someone says “what pretty earrings”. If the earring isn’t for you it will make a wonderful gift. I have many earring options that can be worn with this necklace….the Ball Stud [which comes in a set of the same four colors that the Leaf necklaces does] J317109…….the Demi Hoop, J279391 [avail in all 4 colors]………and the Bold Hoop, J288005 [avail in 3 colors]…….all wonderful choices with the Falling Leaves necklace……If my instincts are correct I am sure this necklace will be a popular as the multi crosses hanging from the long chain…..I am sure for those of you who are loving this new direction I am taking…..choosing colors will be difficult……………………….enjoy…………………………much Love………………………Louis
