To Stack or Not To Stack

I was always a purist: one necklace, only one necklace, don't do more than one necklace. Even during photo shoots I had a hard time placing multiple necklaces on the models. That was until one day I couldn't make up my mind which one I wanted to wear so I put on both: the Double Ring Necklace and a Seed Bead Necklace. And I never turned back. Now I wear three necklaces a day. 

So why did I have a problem with this? I think it's the minimalist in me and the 'keep it simple stupid' theory I go by. I also think I never felt I had the confidence to carry off the look. I wasn't hip, stylish or cute enough to get away with it. I'm glad I did it though. Wearing multiple necklaces has given me a degree of confidence I didn't have before. I know that sounds silly, but I still carry that little girl with me who never felt pretty or worthy. Proving to myself on a daily basis that I can take chances and feel good is a valuable lesson for that little girl. Now I encourage everyone to try it. If I was able to have the courage to, anyone can.
