I am deliberately not reading what anyone else said lest I lose confidence in my opinion (and jewelry is such a personal thing) but for me it's no contest: the second one, with the irregular shapes. </p> <p>The others are nice, but the unusual shapes of #2 makes it my favorite, whereas the identifiable geometric forms of the others makes them a bit more ordinary.</p> <p>Congratulations in advance on your upcoming graduation! It's been a long haul for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83874 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 05:08:33 +0000 Sihaya 83874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya - I've missed your presence on the forum. So nice to have you back - welcome! And almost congratulations. I haven't read others' comments but my far out favorite is number 2 with number 1 and number 5 as second and third but much further down the list. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83807 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 22:57:26 +0000 bella 83807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote #1, that's the larger one, right? The videos are really helpful, they give you a good sense of the size of the necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83792 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 21:53:39 +0000 elpgal 83792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2 as well.</p> <p> Will you be working at the same lab after graduation?<br /> Your new workplace and co-workers may afford to let you wear whatever jewelry you want without offering any odd comments. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83787 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 21:04:23 +0000 Tanya 83787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for the congrats, one more month an I should be there ( if my thesis would only write itself :)</p> <p>Thanks Lena, you are to sweet! I will most likely go with #2.</p> <p>I love those Elsa Perreti designs. I might get something like that latter ( I am libra) but for the graduation I am just looking for something more unique and more versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83785 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:57:48 +0000 Debora 83785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Number 2 gets my vote! They are all beautiful!</p> <p>Congratulations on your upcoming graduation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83784 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:52:45 +0000 Lena 83784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, it's SO GOOD to see you back! :)</p> <p>I like the second one. I also like the triangles. It's hard to tell without seeing them to scale. </p> <p>Laura makes a good point about polishing. It's not always easy to polish such intricate pieces. </p> <p>I also like Laura's Tiffany's suggestion. I don't know if they still have it, Elsa Peretti used to have a zodiac pendant collection. <a href="http://www.tiffany.com/Shopping/item.aspx?sku=GRP00147&#038;cid=287465&#038;search_params=s+5-p+4-c+287465-r+101323338-x+-n+6-ri+-ni+0-t&#038;selectedsku=18307286&#038;mcat=148204" rel="nofollow">http://www.tiffany.com/Shoppin.....cat=148204</a><br /> I have one and I love it to pieces. I call it my Mad Men inspired pendant But it's not as versatile as a chunky necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83774 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:32:57 +0000 Laura 83774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the triangles, but Joy makes a good point. Also, would these necklaces be hard to polish? Maybe not. I've polished a lot of silver though, and some is easier than others. </p> <p>If none of the above wind up working, take yourself straight to Tiffany! It's your graduation! :)</p> <p><a href="http://www.tiffany.com/shopping/Item.aspx?fromGrid=1&#038;sku=GRP02632&#038;mcat=&#038;cid=288158&#038;search_params=s+5-p+1-c+288158-r+101287465-x+-n+6-ri+-ni+0-t+" rel="nofollow">http://www.tiffany.com/shoppin.....i+-ni+0-t+</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83773 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:32:41 +0000 JewelryGirl 83773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The 1st &#38; 2nd are my favorites! CONGRATULATIONS to you!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83772 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:32:08 +0000 Tanya 83772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He he Angie, most of the people did indeed prefer #2, so that's what I will probably go with. And it also happens to be the most affordable one </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83768 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:29:01 +0000 Angie 83768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a marvelous idea, Tanya! Graduation congrats! </p> <p>Without looking at anyone's else’s comments, #2 is hands down best. #4 gets my next vote. Was there consensus? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83767 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:27:22 +0000 Ariadne 83767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely like the first or the second one the best. They are the most modern to me, and I think they fit best with your style. The other ones all seem a bit earthy and boho or else slightly dated to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83763 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:23:52 +0000 Tanya 83763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also really like the second one, and I was thinking about the triangle one too, but after reading Joy's comment I'll definitely skip the triangles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83762 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:22:44 +0000 Ele 83762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for the second one! It's so funky and unique- I love the organic, ice cube-like shapes. The smaller one (first) is nice too, but I really like how bold the larger one is. </p> <p>Are you leaning toward any particular one, Tanya? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83757 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:13:51 +0000 Anonymous 83757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, those are beautiful! For you I like the second one 030009. It is unusual with its organic shapes and can be worn casually. As someone who makes most of her jewelry, triangles are hard to wear and tend to turn ways you don't want them to so that you are always fussing with them. The spirals are nice but seem dressier and the spiral silver pieces are much more common. I did a necklace with them interspersing them with grey pearls a few years ago.<br /> You might also consider a string of round silver beads that resemble a string of pearls. I think I saw some at Macys and have been thinking of them myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83745 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 19:15:28 +0000 Maya 83745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had no reason for choosing the ones I did aside from personal preference, so Ana probably has the right idea.</p> <p>I doubt you'll be failing anything in this last month, so I think my well wishes are still justified </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83740 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 18:59:59 +0000 Tanya 83740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies.</p> <p>Maya, I haven't graduated yet, it will happen in about a month. I am just choosing my reward in advance so that I can get that extra motivation to work like crazy. So I will only be getting the necklace once I am done, but it's nice to look forward to that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83737 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 18:53:15 +0000 Maya 83737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy graduation! You finally made it :)</p> <p>I'm partial to the ones with the triangles and the spirals. All of them are interesting though. I haven't really seen anything like these before. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83736 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 18:52:56 +0000 Ana 83736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is tough. I think I like either the small geometric links necklace:</p> <p><a href="http://www.ice.com/necklaces/womens-silver-necklace-prd_nsw_030013.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.ice.com/necklaces/w.....030013.jsp</a></p> <p>Or the large:</p> <p><a href="http://www.ice.com/necklaces/womens-silver-necklace-prd_nsw_030009.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.ice.com/necklaces/w.....030009.jsp</a></p> <p>It's hard to tell which would be better without seeing them on you, but I'm leaning towards the large. It's still less than one inch, so not too overbearing, but has a nice presence. I think either of those could be casual or dressy very easily. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-silver-necklace#post-83735 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 18:49:30 +0000 Tanya 83735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been thinking about getting a signature chunky silver necklace for a while. I love my pearls but sometimes they draw out unwanted comments in my lab. Necklaces are my preferred piece of jewelry to wear. So I figured that a somewhat neutral piece that I wear very often would not draw so much attention yet still allow me to feel like me ( sometimes I feel somewhat 'naked' when I know the outfit would benefit from an accessory).</p> <p>So I am curious to know what you think about the idea in general as well as about these particular pieces - which one do you like the best. Many thanks!</p> <p><a href="http://www.ice.com/necklaces/womens-silver-necklace-prd_nsw_030013.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.ice.com/necklaces/w.....030013.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.ice.com/necklaces/womens-silver-necklace-prd_nsw_030009.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.ice.com/necklaces/w.....030009.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.ice.com/necklaces/womens-silver-necklace-prd_nsw_030011.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.ice.com/necklaces/w.....030011.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.ice.com/necklaces/womens-silver-necklace-prd_nsw_030012.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.ice.com/necklaces/w.....030012.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.ice.com/necklaces/womens-silver-necklace-prd_nsw_030008.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.ice.com/necklaces/w.....030008.jsp</a></p> <p>It is going to be a graduation present to myself from myself </p>
