What she's wearing: color

I really needed to wear color on this day just to thumb my nose at the gray skies. I was heading out and about the International District for the afternoon, so I needed to be warm and have shoes that were comfortable and wouldn't be ruined by the pouring rain. The necklace has a really large beveled ebony stone. Since I am not petite in stature, I like to wear jewelry that has a little more heft to it; I feel like it balances my size better. When I found this necklace, the mega-stone kind of cracked me up.
Note: The gift shop at the Wing Luke Asian museum is awesome. I'm going to write a separate blog about it soon.
