how to update a vintage necklace

Outfit Details: 
Skirt: Mother's
Denim Shirt: Joe Fresh
Shirt: Urban Outfitters
Belt: Thrifted
Scarf: Vintage
Necklace: Gift, Vintage 1940's
I love this beautiful necklace. It was a gift for christmas from my boyfriend. It's a real 1940's (?) vintage necklace. It's absolutly so beautiful. It's hard to know how to wear this beautiful piece of jewelry without looking dated, so you throw on some modern clothes, denim shirts work awesome, patterned tops are another great item. As always a belt helps over top of your tucked in denim shirt. A pair of jeans would have worked well with this vintage necklace to update it as well. 

This past weekend I went to the best pot luck I have ever been to! All the food was amazing. I guess you can tell we're getting a little older and learning to cook, everyone brought gourmet pot luck items instead of buying a vegetable platter from the grocery store. We also went to a London Lightening basketball game. It was our first one and it was neat. We're both not huge fans of basketball, but we went with 10 other people and the tickets were free so of course it was a hoot. 
How was your weekend? I'm in Toronto for a few days having a little adventure with my sistercuz. Hope your week is going well!

  5. What a great necklace! That was so nice of your boyfriend, it looks like he really knows your taste! Also, I'm totally loving your skirt, it is very causal but yet elegant, if that makes sense. :)
