This past weekend I was in Kansas City and the one place I had to visit was Halls. I love Halls, there is only 1 and it is in KC, it is technically a department store but to me it has more of a boutique feel. They carry some fabulous lines and would be my go to store if I was looking for something special (and lived in Kansas City)
While browsing the jewelry department I kept eyeing some beautiful beaded necklaces. I am really into the hand beaded look. It is reminiscent of the navajo necklaces and shoes I wore almost daily as a child, just the sight of the necklaces made me smile and take a little trip down memory lane...
Unfortunately my 9 year old was shopping with me and had had enough. All she wanted to do was get back to the hotel and swim. My thought was fine, I can always look on line. For being such a nice and beautiful shop, they have the WORST website. You cannot search for anything and what you do eventually find on their website is a fraction of what they have in the store.
I never found the exact necklace I saw at Halls, I did find some pretty amazing substitutes. I love this Fiona Paxton Coco necklace, it looks so fabulous on Drew...
and my gal Kate makes a great one too!
I had one of those necklaces when I was kid too. I loved it! I think I got it in Wisconsin Dells. I've never heard of Halls and I've never been to KC. It sounds like you had fun!
ReplyDeleteThe dept store/boutique vibe sounds pretty awesome. I love these necklaces too. They are probably somewhat easy to bead infu try to do a basic one. Drew looks great with hers!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend Jill! I love that necklace, both the one on Drew and the turquoise one! It's gorgeous!
