This Fall’s trend back to the pendant necklaces of the
‘70’s swings both ways…long and short. I
set out last week to design a trio in assorted lengths to go with my personal
go-to Fall colors – darkest blues and browns.
My shortest pendant necklace, at 18” pairs this season’s
trendy olive with richly hued brass. I’m so happy this often-neglected metal is
making a comeback, too!
Kyanite, pearls, a sapphire teardrop and some of my favorite
Afghan and Thai silver finds from last February’s trip to the Tucson Bead Show
combine in this 30” slip-on necklace. Oh, but this looks so good with dark-washed jeans!
At 46”, my final lariat can be worn long or short, with its
pendant dangles of African opal, Swarovski crystal, labradorite and pink dotted
quartz. And it’s in my favorite color combination from Pantone’s Fall Color
Report.
Are pendants making a comeback in your Fall wardrobe?
