The idea with a black cord is a good one - I'll have a look if I have a pendant I could see working with this kind of style. Craft fairs and so on are a good idea in general, but I don't have time to visit one in the next two weeks. This was just an idea I had after I bought the black sandals and started thinking about my travel capsule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-722084 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 18:55:03 +0000 Kari 722084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Honestly, most of my jewelry is from swaps, consignment stores, or local jewelers. I'm not a good thrifter and jewelry is probably the one thing that I'm patient enough to find!</p> <p>Ideas:<br /> * Look for pendants on a black cord. Or use a pendant that you already have, and buy some cord at a craft store to hang it on. This is one of my favorites that I got at Nordstrom - I like the way it's knotted on to the cord: <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/nordstrom-thin-line-oval-pendant-long-necklace/3161363" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/no.....ce/3161363</a> (It's no longer available but could be an example for a DIY project.)<br /> * Etsy, which others mentioned, is a great idea.<br /> * Check out farmer's markets, craft fairs, etc. for local jewelry makers selling their products.<br /> * Bead/craft stores sometimes also employ jewelry artists who teach classes where you can learn how to make them yourself, which isn't cheaper (the supplies can be costly) but is a lot of fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-722037 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 17:55:17 +0000 Astrid 722037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everybody. I had a look at Etsy, but haven't found anything I really loved. I also looked at Dawanda (same as Etsy only for Germany), because it would have been easier with shipping and so on, but I didn't found anything there either.</p> <p>@Debbie<br /> Thanks for the link, but they don't ship internationally.</p> <p>@Diana<br /> We don't have Ann Taylor here, it's too bad. I've seen some nice AT things here on the forum!</p> <p>I think I'll go have a look at the local cheap jewelry stores and see if I can find something that doesn't look too plastic-y. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-721294 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 16:29:19 +0000 Diana 721294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Astrid, do you have Ann Taylor stores? I like their jewelry a lot - it's very nice quality for costume jewelry. </p> <p>They have several necklaces with black on their website. </p> <p><a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/ann/product/AT-Accessories/AT-View-All/Pearlized-Charm-Necklace/294138?colorExplode=false&#038;skuId=12219445&#038;catid=cata000021&#038;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&#038;defaultColor=6001" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/ann/p.....Color=6001</a><br /> <a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/ann/product/AT-Accessories/AT-View-All/Double-Strand-Delicate-Necklace/294137?colorExplode=false&#038;skuId=12219421&#038;catid=cata000021&#038;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&#038;defaultColor=6001" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/ann/p.....Color=6001</a><br /> <a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/ann/product/AT-Accessories/AT-View-All/Spotted-Haircalf-Pendant-Necklace/290845?colorExplode=false&#038;skuId=12050901&#038;catid=cata000021&#038;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&#038;defaultColor=6600" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/ann/p.....Color=6600</a></p> <p>Otherwise, I think Etsy is always a good place to look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-721293 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 16:25:04 +0000 fern 721293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a very casual pendant that has a fossil (ammonite) on a black leather cord. It doesn't seem like much black, but it is enough to tie together with whatever else I'm wearing.<br /> Here are the first 2 that caught my eye when I put "fossil leather" into Etsy jewelry.<br /> <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/103255557/orthoceras-fossil-pendant-on-leather" rel="nofollow">http://www.etsy.com/listing/10.....on-leather</a><br /> <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/92851784/fossil-coral-necklace-on-leather-cord" rel="nofollow">http://www.etsy.com/listing/92.....ather-cord</a></p> <p>OK, the second one is brown leather - but you can find the one you like best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-721264 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:48:51 +0000 Debby 721264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know if any of these are your style, but I love 1928.com. I searched for "black necklace" and there are a couple of pages of options:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.1928.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=black+necklace" rel="nofollow">http://shop.1928.com/catalogse.....k+necklace</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-721185 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:17:41 +0000 texstyle 721185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Asrid, I'd try Etsy. I just searched and saw quite a few options for very reasonable prices. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-721147 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 13:36:57 +0000 Astrid 721147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! I'll have a look there, although It didn't see something that fit the bill in their online stores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-721069 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 11:04:28 +0000 rute 721069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love Zara or H&amp;M jewelery, it's not expensive and the quality is lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/searching-for-a-black-necklace#post-721050 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 08:31:50 +0000 Astrid 721050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm searching for a short necklace with black in it (but not solid black!). I thought I could wear the necklace on my upcoming holiday with tops and shirts to bookend my black sandals a bit. It's true that I have two scarves with black in the pattern, but I'm not sure I want to wear these every time I wear the sandals, even more so when it's warm. </p> <p>(I replaced my black Birks with the same sandals one size up btw. I also tried the Gizeh and some other styles in the store, but these were still the most comfortable. Only available in black though.)</p> <p>Where would you look for necklaces/costume jewelry? Etsy? Do you have any favourite sellers for colorful stuff? Or have you seen something somewhere recently? </p>
