This collar-length soft choker was made last night with someone of my mum's age in mind, but it turned out that I might just make one for myself and my mum. I just loved it more and more as it evolved bit by bit!!!
This is a truly elegant colour combination - beige Mother-of-Pearl with lots of sheen, and 3 types of pearls including the petal-like Keishi pearls. Subtlity is key here, because I assume older women do not like to wear too exciting or girlish colours.
My recommendation: wear this loosely as a necklace rather than a choker, AND wear it with some simple, plain-colour top such as a well-cut tee or blouse. It has a delicate, lacy contour and it is able to dress up something simple. I tested out with my wardrobe and I especially like it when I wore it with anything with a boat-neck or round neck top. It goes well with even working shirts with collars.
And it is a very versatile piece for its colour. It goes very very well with red, brown, navy blue, green, beige or cream, and my favourite white!
