I know bib necklaces have been around for a few seasons, but I just got one- from the lovely Cath! She picked up this black bib necklace in Las Vegas. at a store for little girls (which usually means half price from the big girl stores- woohoo!), and I luuuurve it!
Here’s why: it’s yet another way to try to maintain a certain level of stylish creativity when it gets so hot and humid you can’t even be bothered to put on more than underwear. Instead of a drab ole tank and skirt or shorts, slap on a bib and voila! You look like you tried without breaking a sweat (even at 85% humidity)!
Tank and skirt (years and years old) from AA, shoes are Jeffery Campbell, bib is from Kitcath, cuff is from Evolve Boutique (made from reused/recycled metal).
Sharing the wealth, I put it on our resident Puck/Bacchus. He prefers to pair it with just a loosely wrapped loin cloth and pan pipe. To each their own. I’d suggest trying my skirt/tank combo first before trying it his way. Apparently it’s easier to get away with that sort of thing when you are immortal.
Oh! And don’t forget about our Shabby Apple dress contest! Read the post below and leave a comment. We’ll close the comments on Thursday at 11:59 p.m. and the announce the winner this weekend. Good luck, you wonderful people you!
What a great bib necklace! It looks more like a fancy collar than a necklace–I can see it being a great versatile piece to wear with tanks and tees all summer.
LOVE it! I’m a huge fan of bib necklaces and you’re totally right – they are a fab way to dress up lightweight ensembles.
ooh, that is a fabulous necklace. i haven’t been brave enough to try the bib necklace thing, but i love how it took a simple outfit and made it pop!
I’m a BIG BIG fan of bib necklaces and I think this one is probably the coolest I’ve ever seen.
I love that. I always assume those things are going to look horrid on me.
i like that necklace. its really cute. how far do you guys live apart now btw? do you often borrow each others clothes? it must be so much fun to do that. when youre the same size and all
have a wonderful midweek

I REALLY Love the bib necklace. Very Tres Chic !!
I love how it looks like it’s part of the shirt – what a neat way to spruce up your basics!
Whoa, I thought it was part of the shirt. Tricky, tricky85% humidity? Gross. At least we get a winter here for putting up with muggy summers. And look at you giving away awesome stuff. Magnanimity suits you two.
Ive wanted a bib necklace for a while now too bc it’s so versatile. Love that you’re dressing up your tank with it. Looove even more you’re sharing it with the local resident!!

I love the bib necklace!! You look gorgeous!
Love how you’re wearing it with a high-waisted skirt. I wonder how it would look with a pair of pants
SO PRETTY. Little girls do not need such prettiness as much as us big girls do. I agree jewlerey makes the outfit in these sweltering summer monthes.
