"Thanks!" to Marietta who shared the email Madewell sent yesterday.
The email features the Cascade Stone Necklace which is described as "swingy, sparkly and impossibly stylish: it's the necklace of the season".
I rarely say this (when it comes to Madewell, let alone their jewelry), but love, love, love the necklace! Although I would not pile on a thousand necklaces like their stylist does, I think two strands of the Cascade Stone Necklace would look absolutely lovely with any outfit.
If I am not mistaken, I also believe this is the necklace that J.Crew's Jenna Lyons wore while on the Martha Stewart Show last week (refer to the "J.Crew's Jenna Lyons to Appear with Martha Stewart..." post).
What are your thoughts on the Cascade Stone Necklace? Do you like or dislike the style? Are you a fan of Madewell's jewelry? :)

That's so funny you posted this, because I just wrote about this necklace in your last Madewell post. I just purchased today! This photo is somewhat deceiving, there are a couple necklaces piled on in this photo. The actual cascade necklace (priced at $98) looks like the photo bellow from the previous post. It's really pretty in person. Another tip, I was looking online, and if you go to SHOPBOP, they have some Madewell pieces for sale online. I saw the exact same necklace for $68 (when I just bought it for $98). The only difference being the ribbon is pink, which I liked. So I ordered the one on SHOPBOP, and if it is indeed the same, I will return my $98 one.
ReplyDeleteShopbop also has a Madewell Opera necklace- very pretty and reasonably priced. Just wish it had a clasp or a ribbon closure- I think the rhinestones would catch on my hair!
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty but is it heavy, Heidi? After my BR multi-strand stone necklace a few years ago, I always check the weight of stone necklaces. The BR one was so heavy that it hurt my neck and eventually broke the cute crocheted "clasp." The stones were beautiful, though. I used them to make several necklaces and I still have some left over.
ReplyDeleteOkay, that's weird, i just checked SHOPBOP and the necklace has vanished. I don't know if it sold out, or they pulled it since it was $30 cheaper then the same one at the store.
ReplyDeleteJeanne - I don't think the necklace is heavy at all, there isn't a clasp, the ribbon ties all the way around, so you slip it over your head.
The necklace is actually very different from what is pictured in the e-mail. It is multiple strands, but all of them are chains, save just one rhinestone necklace. You can see it on Madewell's website, number 4 of 4 in jewelry.
ReplyDeleteI was told that the round, clear-stone necklace Jenna was wearing on the MS show (the one that is close to her neck) is part of her private collection and will not be available for sale. Darn it!
Heidi - Thank you so much for the Shopbop.com tip. I couldn't decide between the necklace you ordered- the grosgrain and rhinestone necklace - and the the rhinestone Opera necklace. I just ordered the Opera and received free shipping. This blog and it's members have saved me a ton and introduced me to some really great items that I may have never purchased and helped me to pass on others due to fit and quality. I look forward to reading this blog every morning.
ReplyDeleteCorry, that's a bummer about Jenna's necklace!!!
ReplyDeleteI see the cascade necklace is back on shop bop. It's a little confusing because they don't call it the cascade necklace on the shop bop site. And there are 2 kinds. The rhinestone cascade necklace (shown on the model) and the cascade necklace that has only 1 strand of rhinestones and the rest chains. In any case, you can see them all on shopbop, and they seem to automatically give free shipping on all orders.
