The Beauty Den: Stoked About Chokers

This 90’s chick is super excited about one of the hottest accessory trends for fall….Chokers!  When I was a senior in high school, working part time at Express in the mall, I amassed quite the collection! All at an employee discount, I might add.

If I had known they would be coming back around I might have put them all away in a shoe box, waiting for the day to break them out and string them across my neck again!

Among my favs… A black corded one with a Gothic cross on it, a white one with a fake cameo on it, a gun metal one with bars on it, and a dainty red beaded one with a pendant on it.

I was thrilled when I saw them popping up again. To be age appropriate, I think simple is best, so I picked up this little number at Charming Charlie. To be honest, now that I’ve opened this Pandora’s box, I might be filling it with chokers all year long! 🙂
