Oh, I covet this...

Last night I ran into a girl named Alicia and she was wearing this beautiful necklace.  The picture doesn’t do the piece justice.  It was bold, had an amazing sparkle when the light hit it, and fell at a perfect length on her neck.  It was a gift from her friend Karen, who proceeded to tell me she purchased it at Nordstrom Rack.  Alas, this was a disappointment – any of you who have been to that store knows it is hit or miss and the “good stuff” isn’t there long.  I will just have to admire the necklace from afar instead of adding it to my collection.
