OK, wake up and take notes, people. I’m about to let you in on the next big thing: whisper necklaces. It’s a term I made up that means the opposite of statement necklaces. Statement necklaces have been the trend for a while now, so we’re getting to the point where everyone will feel like “rebelling.” So the next time you see someone wearing a dainty necklace like this, compliment her on her whisper necklace. If you say it confidently enough, everyone will think it’s a real thing. If anyone is like, “Um…WTF? Whisper necklace?” just be like “duh, it’s all over the blogosphere and it’s so fetch.”

This was another one of my “networking” outfits, where I dressed like I was going to work so that I would blend in with the people I met with, who were (of course) wearing jeans.

I went kinda matchy matchy with the shoes, which isn’t usually my style. But when a dress already makes a big statement, I figure I don’t need to do a contrasting shoe. As long as I’m still living in the real world and not on Planet Fashun, this approach seems appropriate. But as you can see below, I can’t seem to NOT wear colorful accessories with this dress! Next time, I think I’ll wear it with a black leather jacket and black pumps.
