In the Countryside


Although I don't always appreciate it, I'm very lucky to live in an area surrounded by countryside! I think after a few years in the city, I'll start to miss the beautiful scenery and fresh air.

And what better a place to show off this horse-themed necklace - the last of my top picks from the Accessorize A/W collection.

The necklace itself is beautifully embellished with tiny beads, faux diamonds and red stitching, all mounted on leather for a luxurious feel. It would definitely work both during the day and in the evening, making it very versatile!

It is certainly very unique in design - at least, I've never seen anything like it! Which makes it all the more appealing - who wants to walk around with exactly the same necklace as everyone else?


I've paired it with yet another variant of the Breton top - I like how the striped horse reflects the pattern of the top! I'm slightly ashamed to admit that I have 8 different tops in this classic stripey design... eep! Need to break my Breton addiction!

I'll post a link to the necklace when it's up on their website!

P.S. I'll be back very soon with a sewing tutorial that I've been working on!

That necklace is fantastic! And don't worry, you can never have too many Breton tops (well, that's what I keep telling myself anyway haha)

Can't go wrong with a Breton top! I have 2, which are almost exactly the same... why oh why?

I was saying to Carrie the other day, that for ages I didn't really 'know' that we lived in the countryside, and just thought nothing happened around here by some strange streak of bad luck! What a fool. I think its only now that I've started to appreciate how petty it can be!

I have a bit of a stripe obsession myself....
I love the necklace, it's like a cute little zebra! I wish we still had accessorize here.
