Anthropologie and Accessories

It's no secret, I love Anthropologie; it's my happy place. We all have one, and mine happens to be in the sweet smelling, "enchanted forest" of clothing, accessories and housewares. If you think I'm kidding, I'm not. I am happy, giddy, and light on my feet as I flounce around, taking in all that is pretty.   OK, I don't actually "flounce", but that's what comes to mind when I think of myself shopping at Anthro.
Although I usually focus on clothing, Anthro's accessories are not to be missed. I am a big fan of not over-accessorizing, so when I do wear a piece of jewelry, I want it to make a statement...not one strand of pearls but ten, and then I usually leave the earrings and bracelets for another day.
I tend to gravitate to necklaces because, well, I do. I like em' big and chunky, and over-the-top (I was going to say like me, but I refuse to use "big and chunky" as self descriptors).   Right now, over-the-top necklaces are all the rage, but unfortunately, so are the prices. At Anthro, you can most certainly spend hundreds on one necklace, but they also have pieces that are more than reasonably priced and super unique.
Have a peek at the jewelry below. If you are stressing about gift ideas, a beautiful necklace from Anthropologie would make a fantastic present ...or a purse, or a belt, or a blouse, or a skirt...
