not your average collar

A basic shirt or dress can be taken to the next level with an interesting collar, and lately you can find this just about anywhere. Whether it’s a button down shirt with stud embellishments, lace, or Peter Pan, there are so many options, and I’m loving them all. I have countless basic collars residing in my closet right now, but as the days go by I’ll be adding more and more with a unique neckline. As much as I love necklaces and never leave home without one on, I may start forgoing this piece of jewelry because these collars seem to be doing all the talking.

    I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect collared shirt for a while now, but sadly, my wardrobe is still collar-less 🙁 I love the jeweled tank you picked!

  11. These are all so pretty Julie! I especially love #3 and #5! You’re right though, wearing a blouse with an embellished collar calls for a day without a necklace!
