Working on My Jewelry Wardrobe

I only just began to wear gold.  Up until last year I thought I only looked good in silver jewelry, but it turns out I was wrong. While fantasizing about having a few hundred dollars to snap up a rare pair of Ted Muehling earrings on ebay (right), I found the online shop of Peggi Li, a jewelry designer who's work has been featured in TV shows such as Grey's Anatomy, Without A Trace and Buffy, the Vampire Slayer.  She has created a very affordable version of the Ted earrings that you can find here

 I was thrilled to find them and I love to wear them--but as all my other jewelry is silver (and I don't enjoy the look of mixing silver and gold) I never had anything to wear with them. 

Until now!

Many of you know that I love Etsy.  I have dreams of operating my own Etsy shop--but about zero time to feed that dream, so my little (well designed, thanks Ocean Front Studio!) shop lays empty.  But everyone has time to shop on Etsy, so last week that is what I did.

I picked up three "layering" necklaces from Edor's Etsy shop--all for under $20 a pop!  In the picture above I'm wearing all three necklaces, but I think that I'm going to save the little "Fleur" charm to wear alone because I think it makes things look too cluttered.  

The two round ones look perfect layered, I think, and they're the perfect balance to my earrings.  Yeah Etsy!
