I've been having a bit of an obsession lately with big eye-catching statement necklaces. I'm especially fond of seeing them paired with a classic tee or tank top and some great shorts, jeans, or other suitably relaxed option. The perfect juxtaposition!

Below are a few of my current favorite picks in the wallet-friendly price range (most of them are from one source...sorry).

Top Row (left to right):

Multi Chains with Ribbon Necklace - $8.80
Braided Box Pendant Necklace - $34.50
Sophia Necklace - $19.90
Pleated Bead Trim Ribbon Necklace - $6.80

Bottom Row (left to right):

What mini obsession(s) are you having this week? xox Ez

Aren't these fashion illustrations by artist Jennifer Busking great?! I want to hang them all over my inspiration boards where I can stare at them every day. Gorgeous!
Jennifer's other artwork is just as fantastic. See more here on her website. xox Ez
