Like it or not, big chunky jewelry (namely necklaces and chokers) are IN for Fall.

Chunky Necklaces And Chokers for Fall

Mrs. T

Personally, I tend to feel like these chokers are about to come alive, grow limbs, and start swatting the pretty girl in the face.  That’s honestly what I think about when I see a woman walking down the street with a necklace on that looks as though she needed the assistance of a man… with a forklift… to put it on and clasp it.  But that’s just me.  I’ll accept the trend like a good little penguin and keep my mouth somewhat shut to any designer friends who may be jumping on the chunka-chunka choochoo train with their accessories this season, as long as they stay away from too much gold.  Girls, realize that you can stay on trend here without “icing” out your collarbone until your friends feel the need to give you a rapper name and you join the likes of ‘Lil Romeo’ or ‘Weezy’.  Or until you’re forced to buy a cargo van and start the next A-Team, Mr. T.  Go easy at first and see what’s comfortable for you… and start with browns, earth tones, and soft colors – not metallics.  Also, keep your size and shape in mind.  We don’t want any of you 5’1″, 98 pound, tiny tots developing back problems because of a Fall 2009 fashion trend.  If that should happen – send your chiropractor bills to Sandra Bullock, she wore just under 1 ton of necklace to the premiere of ‘The Proposal’ and got people buzzing early on.
