A Simple Way to Jazz Up a Simple Outfit: Wear a Collar Necklace

Sunday, July 1, 2012 • by Razielle

Are you looking for a way to jazz up a simple outfit? Elizabeth Banks has a great idea for us- wear a collar necklace. When Elizabeth Banks attended “Fox & Friends”, the actress wore a simple red dress and simply accessorized with a beautiful necklace by Dannijo.

The Stella Bow Collar by Dannijo is available at Ssense. It looks like a fun accessory that you could wear with many things.
