It’s no secret that style-watchers are focusing in on collars. It’s a trend that’s relatively easy to pull off. There are tons of options out there: the removable collar, the collar necklace, and (please, don’t laugh) the dickey. For those of you who do not know, the dickey is basically a collar that is attached to a “bib” and gives the illusion you are wearing a shirt. Dickies can change the look of a sweater or shell without any bulk or pesky bunching and twisting. They are especially handy to a Texan (like me) who appreciates the layered look, but rarely sees the opportunity, what with the heat soaring well through fall!
Here are a few Style Therapy favorites:
I’ve found some beautiful handmade collars and collar-style necklaces for sale on Etsy. Or, if you prefer a little DIY collar project, here are a few I have stumbled upon:
- Refinery29 shows you how to make 4 different collars
- Fashion a pretty eyelet collar with P.S.-I made this…
- Create a chain collar necklace at Hello Whimsy
- Get a pattern from The Maker’s Journal and whip one up from scratch!
