my styling dilemma

Friends, I’m in a panic this morning! I’m having my photo taken by the lovely Melissa at Soulmates Photo, and the styling decisions are torture! Straight hair or wavy? Jacket or blouse? Chunky necklace or classic chain? Agh! Styling brain overload.

All I know so far is that I’ll be wearing this gorgeous silk shirt by Equipment:

The color should really pop in a photo, and the fabric skims over imperfections I might not be looking to memorialize on film. I’m thinking I’ll pair it with a pair of black skinny jeans and my coral patent leather Prada flats (colorblocking!).

But, the jewelry/scarf situation has me stumped. Should I go simple, layering a long rose gold chain with maybe this House of Harlow necklace? Or should I go more Man Repeller and wear my grandmother’s vintage squash blossom necklace?

Then we come to bracelets…I’m thinking of my Hermes double tour watch with its pretty new blue strap:

But should I pair with a bevy of gold Gorjana bangles, or keep it simple with a single enamel bangle? Or I could go with my new favorite – my Kara Ackerman rose gold diamond bangle.

So many decisions, friends…and so little time! I’m due at the studio in an hour. Any suggestions?

    I think your outfit will be gorgeous! As a Zonie and lover of all things Nana, I vote for Nana’s necklace. Plus I love in magazines when they list an item someone is wearing as her own vintage (insert cool item I don’t have here). Have fun!

    Hi Theresa,

    Thanks so much for your comment 🙂 The bracelet is Hermes…amazing, but pricey. A couple of alternatives for you:
