{Weekly Wants} Bib Necklace + Sweater Dress

I'm feelin' a couple of different looks this week.

The more I look around, the more I know I need a sweater dress. I know we are getting closer to spring, but I'm positive I could get some serious wear out of it. Plus, my leggings miss me. I'm sure of it.

Also, I hope the redundancy of my pink + green in it's all its variation doesn't bore you. It wasn't intentional, I think promise. This dress is from top shop and it's not very expensive. I also have this bubble necklace and it happens to be this color. The bracelets are only a few dollars from Charlotte Russe. Let me summarize all of this, I need this dress. Don't you? (this bag is Kate Spade and I love!)

I had a special request from a friend to feature a Bib Necklace and how to style it. There are a few things to remember with a bib necklace. It is essentially taking the place of a collar. Therefore, you have to style it with a shirt that will feature it as a collar. 

In my opinion, go with a very plain top. The necklace is a statement necklace for a reason, no need for a busy top with the necklace. 

Next, Make sure the top has a high enough neckline that most of the necklace will be laying on the top, 

not on your bare chest. If you do this, it looks like a collar with the shirt.

Finally, if you want to add a little extra to the outfit, add it in with another accessory. Here, I've included leopard print flats.

The necklace featured here is $3 and I think it's great. The flats are also cheap because they are from K-Mart.
