LOL! But I bow down to the other aficionadas on this blog - FFM, slastena, vivian among others - they're awesome!<BR/><BR/>I was thinking of what I could do this fall with the bubble necklaces. The colors are a bit spring/summer-y, aren't they? (Turquoise and papaya, I mean.) 'Makes me think I need the black one as well! Oh noooo....<BR/><BR/>Maybe with brown jackets? They'll definitely work with grays and blacks. But probably more under button-downs. I do NOT see any problem with wearing them during the fall or winter though. They would add a punch in the somber that is fall and winter, I think.Drewablankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01055175676984815558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-15911621279929758882008-08-01T12:41:00.000-04:002008-08-01T12:41:00.000-04:00yes, that was my feeling about mr. seahorse, screa...yes, that was my feeling about mr. seahorse, screams summer. the other guys you can get more wear out of...do you plan on wearing the bubble necklaces through fall, even winter?
