Title: Trendy Question
Post by: Wanda V on January 20, 2015, 03:55:33 am
Which would you prefer?  A scarf or a necklace?

 :D 

(I have a bet with a co-worker, so please at least a few people respond!)

Scarf.  Jewelry is personal to me.

Honestly neither from a coworker.

But if I had to choose, probably jewelry.

Necklace - I have about 30 scarfs in my dresser that I never wear.

Thanks!  I actually meant to wear, not to get as a gift.

Depends on the outfit, if I have a suit with a matching scarf  I will wear it.

My jewelry is low key classic, pearls, small gemstone necklaces (birthstones or sapphires).  Those "statement" necklaces look gaudy to me and ones I have tried on feel very uncomfortable, plus I'm not willing to pay $$ for a necklace that only goes with a few outfits.

I have been trying to add a few more scarves into the wardrobe as I like the look and warmth.  Finding what I consider pretty prints is the issue. Plus I tend to fidget with it too much during the day.

Oh... well just for a general question as far as wearing...

It depends. LOL ROFL

I wear a few pieces of jewelry - mostly handcrafted necklaces made by a friend. I find rights and bracelets to be irritating when I type.

I wear scarves on occasion, but not all that often.

Whether I wear a scarf or a necklace depends upon the outfit.   I wear suits or dresses to work.  Necklaces go very well with the latter.  I tend to choose classic pieces, such as a string of pearls, or very modern almost industrial-looking pieces.  The odd bit of sparkle is fine, but I wouldn't wear anything too sparkly during the daytime.  I prefer a minimal amount of jewellery and absolutely no jangly bracelets.  Ideally, jewellery should complement and enhance an outfit, rather than preceding it into a room, and is an expression of the wearer's personality. 

At my business college, which I attended about a hundred years ago, we had a strong "finishing-school" element.  We had classes on personal presentation - clothes, makeup, deportment, business etiquette and so on.   I still maintain some of the principles we were taught, hence the "ban" on jangly bracelets.
