Chokers & Bracelets - The Vintage Look

Chokers...                                             bracelets below....

 

I hope you enjoy the gallery below.  A choker (or bracelet) can make all the difference in the world to the look of your wardrobe.  Small and understated or large and lush.  Make that statement in a bridal gown or jeans.  I made these comfortable and easy to wear.  If there is a size adjustment needed I can accommodate, that, too.  These may be purchased as-is and very possibly won't need any alterations.

 

I do quite a lot of research on European fashion and the styles.  Ribbonwork was primarily used among the elite of every European country since the 1500's.  It was used primarly and first among the elite Spanish men in the 1500's and through time it has evolved and touched the lives of every generations "fashionistas."  Only falling or forced out of fashion by a falling economy of it's times and places-- but it continually regains interest among the general population more and more.  The Savvy and most sophisticated will always gravitate back to this unequalled form of feminity, style and grace.

The gold double-coiled flower above is attached to a clip.  The ivory flower is from my daughter's first communion dress and the pewter flower with the large glass button center are also fantastic ideas to use as a pin or a hair accessory.  To convert from one to the other is simple; slip a corsage pin into the back where the clip is attached and voila, repurposed and ready to go accessories.
(gold coil) Eden--- $10,  
(pewter) Neveah---- $5,
(ivory flower) Payton--- $15
