(and she looks great in them)
I thought that I would post my work wardrobe today.
It won't be a surprise to anyone who reads BHB and who knows my uber thrifty ways
that I spend the minimum on my clothing
and on the kind of trendy accessories that will either wear out and/or go out of style in a matter of months.
Since simplicity is the key to my work wardrobe, I tend to wear only gray, navy and black clothes at the office and accent those clothes with scarves and jewelry.
a charcoal gray suit by Calvin Klein ($39 at Ross), a purple t-shirt by Anne Klein ($12 at Marshalls) and a purple floral scarf by Mango ($29 at JC Penny).
But I do invest in things that are durable and that have actual intrinsic value, such as estate jewelry.
(Costume jewelry may be on trend but it has zero intrinsic value, trust me on this)
I love purple and gray as a color combination so I tend to pair amethysts with my gray wardrobe.
And, does your work wardrobe tend to have a different color palate than the rest of your clothes?

That amethyst ring is a really unique and nice looking piece! One could definitely wear that for every day.
Well hello! And thank you. I like the idea of different ways to wear estate jewelry...
It looks smashing...but then you always do!
