  1. I layer t-shirts! I would love to have these pearls…I JUST got the same tiny letters necklace from you today!

  2. I would LOVE to layer those pearls with my layered t-shirts. I JUST received that same silver tag necklace today in the mail! How cool is that?

  3. Ooooooh! I love to layer! Spring and Fall are my most favorite seasons and I think that layering a short sleeve over a long sleeve shirt is perfect for the crisp Michigan weather. I just discovered your blog and I think that your jewelry is truly wonderful!!! (Yay for Mother’s Day coming up! 🙂 )

  4. I LOVE to layer. Besides the obvious ways of shirts over other shirts, (which I sometimes often do “backwards” and wear short over long) I also love dresses over pants, AND my absolute fav is when you see that skirt in the store that is way to cool/cute/beautiful to pass up, but way to short to get away with, I layer over jeans! I also layer longer sheer skirts, or vintage skirts that are a little run down (it prevents wear and tear a little bit)

    And of course I top ALL my outfits with the Open circle necklace. I love that necklace!

  5. I like to layer my clothing, jewelry, and sheets on my bed.

    I love to layer my favorite dessert! Lemon Blueberry Bundt cake with cinnamon sugar, glaze fresh whipped cream and fresh cut strawberries! De-lish!

  6. I love to layer my workout clothes! A tight sport bra cami in a fun color and a customized t-shirt that I cut the collar off.

    I like to layer my jewelry too! Necklaces of same colors. Bracelets, love to layer them! The more sparkly the better. I cannot wait until I get paid this week. I am going to go online and buy myself two of your rings! Thank you for your creativity and talents.

  7. Lately the most frequent way I layers is with children! One on each hip, or my 3 year old loves to climb on my back while I hold the baby! I’m sure one day I will get back to the fashion side of layering. 🙂

  8. I love the layered look too, but for me it has a purpose. I am 5’11” and many of todays tshirts and sweaters are not long enough for me, so i will throw on one of my longer tanks or tee’s underneath it, and I am fully covered!

  9. I use layers in my artwork to create lots of yummy texture. I like to layer bracelets and love your idea of wearing pearls and your newest design with the single pearl accent!

  10. I think I layer a tank top under everything!! I also likt to layer cheese on most things and i am known to layer on the sarcasm a little (all in good fun!).

    Love the necklabe by the way!

  11. i love layering! clothes especially, but what i REALLY love to layer are ingredients in cooking…just layering different herbs or spices, certain pastas, or sauces can change the flavor in a meal!

  12. My plain white tank top is my favorite piece of clothing because I layer it underneath everything: tanks, dresses, sweaters, cardigans. I love the look of it peaking out underneath a shorter shirt or sweater.

    love the pearls!

  13. I love layering, I’m glad it has come back into style again. So many cute tank tops with little bits of lace or beads, then long sleeve shirt with sleeves rolled & cuffed. Love it. Even see the men doing that with the tank tops & sleeves actually rolled under. Especially this time of year with all the spring colors. Love your jewelry, thanks for sharing your talent. Kathy

  14. Oh boy I love love love layering, My favorite is a tee shirt and then a sweatshirt, I love layering jewelry too.

  15. Best Recipe for Layers – Passed down.

    Ingredients – Fall/Cool nights/Winter Pajamas/Hand knitted socks/BIG SMOOSHY LOUNGE/My name being called/2 kids/2 cats/One Husband and 1 Beagle

    Method – take all ingredients and layer in whatever fashion, mix with Popcorn and a favourite movie, and spoon on a soft squashy blanket to cover all and sundry.

  16. i love to layer smells….vanilla and coconut scrub in the shower followed by the same lotion after….my third grade students always ask if I had baked cookies that morning….:) jamie

  17. I love to layer shirts also. My favorites are shade clothing. Great for layering.
    Love your jewelery! Thanks!

  18. I love to layer, espacially in sport cloths. When I’m in the mountains skiing, I use to wear up to five layers of shirts and jackets, but only two layersn of trousers…is this weired? I never thought about that before…

  19. Oh I love that look! I don’t think I ever wear just one shirt! Layering shirts is fabulous…

  20. I love to layer prayers at bedtime, John and I start followed by three kids thoughts and even Josianne, 15 mos. puts in her “A-MEN !” 🙂

    This is so pretty, what are the lengths of the necklaces? Perfect together.

  21. I love layering anything with lace, whether its a lace tank over a cami, or a cami with lace edging that peeks out from the bottom of your shirt.
    -Jaci

  22. I mostly layer clothing. My favorite is long tanks under everything so as not to expose myself. 🙂

    Lately though, since our weather can’t decide on spring or winter, I’ve been loving my pashmina wrap to keep me warm when the weather turns without making me too hot.

    Your layered necklace look is very cute!

  23. layering for me means…many bracelets, lots of little kids hugs all at once, toe socks with sandals on a cold sunny day, t-shirts and camisoles, and a cherry on top.

  24. oh..I love to layer and so does my 7 year old daughter..For me, I like to wear a t-shirt..tank and then a cami..for Kylie..she puts on a t shirt, vest then a skirt and capris underneath..I love how she just throws it ALL together!!!

  25. Your jewelry is adorable. You are absolutely a gifted artist. I love the My Heart Necklace and will definitely be ordering one soon – I’m expecting my first child this fall and would love one of your pieces as my mother’s gift.
    Oh and Baby’s first spoon is another favorite, must have, will order!
    Everyday is about layering for me. I live in South Texas so it’s humid and horribly hot in the summer, but I can’t wear just one shirt. I have to have at least two on! I love layering simple jewelry as well – adds a unique touch.
    I look forward to ordering some of your designs soon! Thank you!

  26. Small mens wifebeaters.. a must have to add that extra inch to the bottom of shirts that you wish were a bit longer. A somewhat boring yet very practical way to layer~ love them!

    Jen Peet

  27. Love…love your necklaces!

    Right now since spring is so chilly and damp here in Oregon…I layer by wearing a long sleeve shirt, followed by a short sleeve shirt and wrap it up with a snuggly sweatshirt…then unfortunately it will ultimately be covered by a rain coat and umbrella!

    Blessings,

    Helen

  28. I have to wear a shirt at work that’s the same as everybody else’s. It’s short-sleeved, and the only way I can kind of assert my individuality is by choosing long-sleeved tees to wear underneath it that show off some personality.

  29. I do enjoy layering my clothes, but I especially love to layer clothes on my 1 year old daughter Bronwynn! I love seeing her chunky little legs in her striped leggings, polka-dot onsie and jean mini-skirt!
    The one piece of jewellery that I layer with a boy and girl birthstone pendants along with a diamond and cherish immensely fell victim to my baby daughters tugging hands yesterday…one day it will be repaired!

    I love your designs and hope to order one, one day soon!

  30. i love to layer my scents…
    from soaps, to lotions and perfumes
    and also i love doing candles and diffusers all the matching scents

    love your work lisa…hugs
    michele

  31. My favorite layering is on the cards I make! I layer paper, ribbon, embellishments, ink. . . whatever works at the time! It’s fun and addicting! 🙂 Thanks for the fun chance to win!

  32. i’m always jealous of those who can layer.. i feel like i can’t pull it off! i do love when people layer colors that you usually wouldn’t put together. fingers crossed

  33. We layer our cereals. One of my sons is very specific about this: first uncooked quick oatmeal, then Multigrain Cheerios, then Life (it’s called “cookie cereal” in our house), then toasted wheat germ, then finally in goes the milk!

  34. I think I might be a chronic layer’er! 🙂 Tshirts/everyday shirts are biggie for me, layered jewelry, and I absolutely LOVE dresses with jeans!! Yay u too!? As always your jewelry is lovely.

  35. I love to layer with my “Blush Topless Undershirts”. Highly recommended. A great way to hid your post-baby belly.

  36. I layer 2 different lipstick colors to get the color I want or lipstick with lip gloss.

    Remember layering two different colored socks in the 80’s?? LOL!!!

    Please sign me up for the contest, Lisa. Thanks a bunch!!

  37. before i mention my favorite layer…i just want to tell you how inspiring you are…imperfect, beautiful, wonderful …mother, wife, friend, sister…creator & blogger…thanks for that!

    i love to layer just about anything…but, picking just one…patterned paper on my cards and scrap book pages…

    thanks for all the beauty you add to this world!

  38. my favorite layer this week: a cami, under a 3/4 sleeve tunic, on top of ruffle pants from matilda jane clothing.

  39. hee hee! I immediately thought of layering on my scrapbook pages when you were probably thinking fashion. I like the texture that layering gives to design of all kinds.

    -Jen

  40. I like to layer my nachos… oh wait, maybe that’s not what you meant! 😉
    I am always wearing a short sleeve shirt and a sweater or sweatshirt. ‘cuz I have a very sensitive body thermostat so I need to be able to peel a layer or add one if I go in to or out of a cold/hot building!

  41. I love to layer a long with a short necklace ;} I wear that almost everyday (and usually one of the two are yours!) I also love to layer a clean sheet with a blanket – so cozy but not too heavy!! (and a good movie helps!)

  42. I have to say, my favorite way to layer is while reading books with my kids and they all pile on top of me. Now that’s a good way to layer! 🙂

  43. I love to layer tanks and tees, I think it’s a cute young look and I need all the help I can get (I’m in my forties) !!!! I love the dress over the pants thing, but I’m too short to do that….LOL, hey, maybe I need a shorter dress !!

  44. I love to layer tshirts and necklaces. Especially your neckalces with beads. My girls love to layer everything, dresses with jeans, leggings, they love to layer bracelets!!! Love your designs!!! Thank you for sharing your incredible gift

  45. In Girl Scouts, we were always told to dress in layers. You can always take something off…sometimes, you can’t change completely. LOL Like in the car, on the mountain trail or even, in the mall. So, I’d have to say dressing in layers is my favorite way. However, the pearls and silver necklace may make me change my mind!

  46. I love to layer too. Jewelry, jacket/coats (oh how I love a cute coat/jacket. Swing coats, a-line, princess coats, etc). A good jacket or coat totally ups the mommy wardrobe ante—it takes a tee and jeans to a semi-chic level if you wear the right jacket! (and accessories, especially if it is a Lisa Leonard necklace 😉 )

    I also “layer” by wearing my daughter (and a few years ago my son) in slings, pouches, and my Ergo baby carrier. A warm body next to you is the best layer of all!

  47. i love that necklace combo!

    i layer my clothes pretty much daily – long sleeved t shirt with short sleeved shirts – cami’s/tanks with anything. I like the dress with jeans look too :o)

    There is a company out here called Layers (website is layers.com) – their speciality is…. layering. They have the softest tshirts and cami’s!

  48. Hmmm, pretty sure this isn’t quite the answer you were looking for but my favorite way to layer is in my Adobe Photoshop as I digiscrap! LOL

  49. dresses and jeans is probably my favorite layering, but since that’s been said…

    i love layering fragrance…matching bodywash/lotion/spray of a gentle scent is just fantastic!

  50. i love to layer bracelets, photos on my scrapbook pages, and my newest layering object is my “mama” necklace I just got from you under so many of my other necklaces (w/ bright colors)! It is darling!!:)
    Jodi E.

  51. I love to layer RINGS…and I love to layer tank tops and long sleeve shirts with short sleeves shirts! 🙂 The more the merrier…
    LOVE the layered look of your latest creation…beautiful as always…it’s layer-ific!! 😀 Have a great day!

  52. I love layering cakes with deep chocolate, raspberry or lemon filling. I also am constantly advising my children to “Wear layers!”

  53. I love to layer a t-shirt over a long sleeve long john shirt!! I seem to always be cold so this is my way of not only staying warm but also being fashionable!

  54. In Minnesota, sometimes layering is a necessity, due to unpredicatable weather. I spent the day working outside yesterday, and this Spring has been rather cool. I had a tank, two long-sleeve tees, a short-sleeve tee and a fleece jacket on! The weather got warm enough to lose a layer! Yay!

  55. I love to layer tissue t-shirts! a short sleeve under a long sleeved one is my favorite. Comfy, casual, and cute!

    Anne

  56. OK, your lovely layers just inspired me to buy another one of your adorable necklaces. Love your jewelry, love your blog….you are a very lucky lady!!
    Vicki

  57. My two year old just learned that little game where you layer hands then move the bottom hand to the top…I love to play it with him because it always leads to lots of giggles and tickles!!

  58. layering clothes is the best. Today I have on a tank, button-down shirt, jacket – and necklace! Layering on scrapbook pages is also very good!

  59. Love to layer, clothing, jewelry etc.
    I think your jewelry really lends itself to layering. so yahoo for that 🙂

  60. I love to layer a vest, then a shirt then a zip up top and then a big cardigan or sweater just so i don’t have to wear a coat! Find that sometimes i am warmer this way.

  61. It’s to hot here most of the time, to layer clothing…so I don’t layer often..just in the winter (unless a bra under a shirt counts as layers! haha)
    I’ve never tried layering my necklaces, but I love the picture of your necklaces together. That is so cute! You’ve inspired me, and now I’m going to have to give it a try! 🙂

  62. Layers=da bomb! 😉 my gulity unnecessary layering pleasure would be decorative pillows..I’m addicted to them! On the couch, chairs, beds…everywhere!

    And I also love layering jewelry and always always always layer shirts!

    What about cheeses on grilled cheese sandwiches… mmmmmmmmm.

  63. OOh, I love to layer as well. Cute cami’s under low-cut tees, sweaters.etc.

    Just started layering jewelry and love it. It’s something that I’ve always liked, but been “afraid” to do myself. So glad I’ve tried it.

  64. Every time I pick my favorite of your necklaces you come out with a new one! 🙂

    I love wearing the little short bolero type sweaters over t-shirts.

  65. I am such a cold person, that I am always layering up my clothes for warmth … I love the look too though! I love long sleeve tees with short sleeve over the top (plus a vest underneath for that added layer!!) I love the look of your necklaces layered though … I will definately be trying that out. 🙂

  66. I like to “layer” my food…chocolate over ice cream, cool whip over fresh strawberries, ranch dressing and melted cheese over crispy french fries – YUMMY!!! 🙂

  67. I am with the cold bunch. I have to layer tshirts, sweatshirts and jackets in the winter.

    I love layered (stackable) rings and have a set of three stamped with hearts that I wear every day.

    I “borrowed” my moms pearls to wear for my wedding. I have wished I had my own since then!

  68. Since I’m 8 months pregnant and live in humid Virginia I’m not layering much these days. But I like to put a camisole or tank top under a cute top Or put a cardigan over a dress.

  69. I don’t do too much for myself because I have 4 kids but I love to layer their shirts. 3 boys so I am always layering their t-shirts and long sleeve collared shirts.

  70. I love to layer dresses with jeans, or skirts, and add t’s, tanks,sweaters whatever!!! Anything goes!!!! I even layer clothes on my one year old..As for jewelry, I love to layer chains with anything beaded, long necklaces with shorter versions… it’s so fun!!!

  71. Layering in lasagna! Everytime I make it, I try different layers of different ingredients. When people then ask for a recipe, I have to remember what I did!!!

  72. I love to layer clothes too – I pretty much (with the exception of weddings) always wear dresses over my cuffed jeans – and now my daughter Sam does the sam thing! I am layering 2 of your necklaces these days as well – the sam one and the “breathe one.” Have a great day!

  73. It’s fun to read all these comments!

    I like to layer a close-fitting tank over a flowing, peasant-y top that has a lower neckline, so the tank peeks through at the top.

    And I love what Christina says above about layering chocolate. That might be best of all ;-).

  74. I love layering long t-shirts with jeans on my girls. For me, I usually have a stretchy cami under all my tops on colder days. Not very sexy but it is quite snuggly since no breeze sneak sin under my clothes

  75. I love to layer, my favourite is a dress over a pair of bootleg jeans with a cardigan, There is a shop in South Africa called Honey Child and I find the most awesome pieces there to layer. I also like layering my sandwich, cream cheese, salmon, watercress, sprouts and sprinkles of onions, does that count. But my favourite layering is warm pajama’s, warm winter blanket, warm duvet and a book … layering never felt so good. Love your Blog Lisa!

  76. I feel like I am always layering…my latest layering “fashion” is layering my kids! The 2 year old on my back and the 4 month old in the sling. Hey- the housework needs to get done somehow!

  77. i *love* to layer on my scrapbook pages and the cards i make 🙂
    i also like to layer my clothes at work…long sleeve {t} under my work polo 🙂
    have a great day!! 🙂

  78. I almost always wear two ribbed tank tops… whether they are showing or not. It is a comfort thing. I also love to wear dark jeans under dresses. Sassy, comfy and a bit different.

  79. Layering is also great for the nursing mom. A tank top or something like a Belly Band underneathe can make any t-shirt as discreet as a nursing top.

  80. I also LOVE to layer my jewelry. I usually wear a long necklace (really long, down to just above my waist) with a not-so-long necklace. I also like to wear a watch with a bracelet. I think it adds interest. The new pearl necklace is so cute!

  81. when i’m not layering beads on a cross…i’m layering paint on something and usually myself included. jeans, tees and denim or my hubby’s oxford buttondowns. i just told my daughter this evening that i never ever want to be too old to wear my bluejeans.
    pearls look pretty with jeans…right? =)

  82. I layer tanks with shirts and sweatshirts. I also like to layer vests with t-shirts. My bracelets are always layered because life is too short to wear just one.

    One of my hobbies is rubber stamping. I frequently layer decorative papers and cardstock when making cards.

    Pam

  83. I love to layer vanilla bean ice cream, whipped cream, and juicy red strawberies.

    Yay for summer coming!!

  84. I have to layer tees…no ifs, ands, or buts! Love your jewelry…saw the necklace offered in Victoria and found your website. Beautiful! I’m keeping my fingers crossed for one of these!

  85. love layering-

    1. undershirts and tshirts. especially the ones from smart set! SO YUMMY!

    2. a cute pair of jeans and a dress. esp. with a cardy on top. oh soooo cute!

    3. hairbands and hair elastics too! cuuuttte.
    Hope you’re having a fabulous day. I love love love your blog and am inspired daily by you!

  86. I love to layer, usually beaded necklaces with a simple necklace on a chain. I also love pairing jeans with a tutu on my girls.

  87. oh layers how fun!! I’m definitely a layer-er when it comes to the tank issue. Here in FL the temp can change a lot in a day so it’s great to have a tank under anything…just in case.

  88. I love to layer ANYTHing. Layering is how I dress & am starting to dress my 2 year old that way–heheh
    I also layer jewelry of all types. I sold jewlery for years & layer all the pieces I accumulated. Anyway love to layer!!

  89. Honesty, I don’t wear layer in clothing so often. I am a simple person except if you don’t count wearing earrings or necklaces.

    Except,there is one thing I always carry my three very special layers that cannot replace,change, or take away from me. It is in my love for my two sons and a dear husband.

  90. Layers – you gotta be an expert on that living in the north. Besides layering clothing, I love layers on my bed, and on my scrapbook pages. (and in my hair!!)

  91. Layering rocks my world! I love to layer shorter dresses over jeans….necklaces with simple charms (ahem…yours will do nice :D), a tank layered under a tee…pretty much every thing I can layer I will 🙂

    love your stuff…as always!

  92. My kids brought home a book from school the other day entitled Fancy Nancy…she would have a fancy word for layering….accesorizing! (I don’t even know how to spell it)

    I am not so good at layering unless it comes to wearing a longer camisole under shirts (so my butt won’t hang out) or making a chocolate cake (the reason my butt hangs out)

    Oh, but I would love a necklace, even though I know I won’t win.

  93. wow! #116.
    first i have to tell you i was at a women’s retreat this weekend, wearing my favorite l.l. necklace, i got soooo many compliments, and many requests for your websight.

    how do i layer, hmmm…. i am layer-challenged. i’m a layering copycat, and i’m okay with that.

  94. I am also into layers, and I really love to layer tanks under t-shirts with a suit for work, it’s such a fun and funky look especially with a few different pendents and bangles.

    Kimberly Marcus

  95. I layer my clothing, my mats for framing art, and even my dishes-layer sizes and colors!

  96. I have a long torso, so the layering of a tank under many of my tees is a must if I don’t want the B. button hanging out in the breeze! 🙂

  97. I live in a ski town where it always seems cold in the evenings no matter what time of year it may be. I always leave the house wearing layers– usually a light sweater or jacket.

  98. Like many that have posted, I love a white T under most anything. With my fav worn & softly faded long-sleeve jean shirt is my most comfortable just about year round uniform.

  99. I feel nothing is better than a plain white tee under anything! It feels so crisp and clean. Very classic although still modern. I also love how you layer.I am always pleased when you list a web site to check out! You have such style! Love your stuff and your sensiblity!

  100. I layer compulsively:

    A camisole underneath a dress underneath a sweater over bluejeans.

    (And hello, I am a lurker, your blog is lovely.)

  101. Hmmm…I have probably 30 tank tops – what does that say?! 🙂 I love to wear tanks under everything – t-shirts, dresses, sweaters, whatever! Beautiful necklace!

  102. My current fave way to layer is on my little boys. I love putting long-sleeve button down shirts on the with a shirt-sleeve 3-button sweater over it.

    I LOVE your jewelry by the way! So delicate and beautiful!

  103. Right now, I’m 18 weeks pregnant, so my layer is “one baby on the inside and one baby on the outside” as my 2 1/2 year old likes to say! I must say the dessert suggestions sound fantastic as well. Looking forward to adding a new circle to my mommy necklace in the fall!

  104. I love to wear a white t-shirt under just about anything. I also love to layer flannel quilts on my bed. My mother makes the most beautiful quilts and everyone in our family has at least one but most of us have many…we love to layer. They are oh so cozy!

  105. Having just had a baby…okay, it was almost 8 months ago, I still look four months pregnant. I like to layer my spanx under a pair of jeans or a skirt. It makes me look thin and feel more confident. I also like to layer angel food cake, whip cream and strawberries, perhaps a major contributer to the need of spanx. 😉

  106. Love to layer clothes and so glad that now it’s hip! :)Because as you go through your day, you don’t have to worry about too hot, too cold temps. I also love stacking bracelets, beaded ones, bangles, what have you. If ya can’t decide which one to wear, where them all! Yesterday I saw a sweet lil’ tot with stripedy tights on with a striped jumper and yet another striped top underneath. Her mama saw me smile at her and she said apologetically, “She dressed herself.” I said, “Well, mom, layers are in, so I think you have quite a little fashion maven there!” The mom rolled her eyes but the wee girl smiled ear to ear!

  107. i love to layer…babies!! i have twins that are 20 months old and one of my favorite things is when they both lay on my lap, overlapping. a “layering” of sorts!!

  108. I have to layer a tshirt with either a tank or a jacket(hoodie). I love layering my 3 year old daughter’s wardrobe even more. A tshirt with a cute tank dress and a pair of jeans.

  109. I am still layering hats, scarves, mittens, sweaters, vests, sweatshirts, coats and boots! It is still cold here, but when the weather gets warm, I will take it all off! Love your blog and your jewlery!

  110. my fave way to layer:
    one mom relaxing on the sofa (who happens to be styling a tee shirt/mens sweater combo)-
    add: one tall 16 year old that still loves to snuggle sometimes and comes and flops on the mom-
    then add: one big dog who still thinks she’s a puppy who flops on the 16 year old and the mom
    = layered goodness

  111. Another layerer (is that even a word) here! I layer tank tops under sweaters, leggings under skirts, and multiple layers of jewelry…

    but, my favorite way to layer is cream cheese, refried beans, salsa, and cheese all warmed up and served with chips… yummy!

  112. I’m the layer queen! My office is usually about 55 degrees, all year long. This spring I do a long sleeve t-shirt, a dress shirt and then a sweater. In the summer, its a short sleeve t-shirt and in the winter its thermals! I always wear a necklace to make my t-shirts a little bit more girly, a little bling takes away from the underclothing so to speak!

  113. I live in the desert..but i still love to layer. I have found a new cropped layering tee, that I wear from Mia Bellina when I don’t want to feel too hot in the summer…I love a cap sleeved tee that goes great with strappy dresses! Which would look stunning with those beautiful pearls.
    xoxo

  114. winter time is the best for layering- coats, scarves, sweaters, shirts, tees, socks, etc.
    Can’t do that is hot West Texas…ugh!

  115. i like to layer as i scrapbook. lots of different paper and embellishments.

    what a beautiful necklace! 🙂

  116. Very pretty!I often wear a sleeveless top under a t-shirt under a sweater so I can peel layers off as the day warms up!

  117. I layer from necessity – always cold!! I layer short sleeved t’s over long sleeved t’s and sometimes I even need to layer a cardigan over that.

    In terms of jewelry – I love the look of layered charm bracelets with solid bands. Thanks for offering the give-away – I love all of your designs and stop by your blog each day to get a glimpse of life for you. You are inspiring in your honesty. Thanks for sharing!! joyce

  118. Layering is my middle name! I love to layer – clothes, jewelry, food and my two girls love to layer too – we have to here in Minnesota! The pearl necklace would would look oh so darling with my new necklace you just made for me – I haven’t taken it off since it arrived. It’s gotten rave reviews… that was for my birthday…now what should I pick for Mother’s Day???

    Therese T.

  119. I love the necklace it looks so classy and I wouldn’t have thought of layering pearls with regular jewelry! I myself layer blankies, nice soft vintage blankies, when I am on the couch, in bed or on a picnic…

  120. Layering… I wear at least 4 bracelets every day! That’s a lot of layering! I love the little clinking sounds they make together.

  121. I love to layer and so does my 4 year old – she MUST have layered shirts (fortunately it’s super cute!) and jeans under dresses! So much fun!

    And those necklaces are darling – so perfect!

    mamaredhead (at gmail dot com)

  122. i love to layer!! layer dresses with jeans, tshirts with jeans (anything to help enlongate my tummy and take away attention from my post baby belly!) i layer my wedding rings, my daughter layers…i LOVE that layers are a style and hope it never goes out! i’m learning to layer jewelry (c/o you!!) you’re jewelry has taught me to layer. : )

  123. I layer tanks under t-shirts but more often than not I am layering a sweater over a short sleeved shirt. It starts out cool in the morning then hot during the day then back to cool in the evening.

  124. I would love to layer MYSELF between the covers of a nice comfy BED! Hubby and I have been sleeping on opposite ends of the couch (since DECEMBER!!) while we remodel. (Doing the work ouselves to save $.) I don’t like to complain but I sure do miss our bedroom, and sleeping in a real bed. But still, count my other blessings…
    ANSWER B: I luv to layer hugs ‘n’ kisses on my two little girls 🙂

  125. i like layering dark chocolate frosting on a cupcake, or layering lingonberry preserves from Ikea on top of peanut butter toast!

    i’d love to win this necklace so that i could give it to a friend!

  126. Favorite way to layer: Food comes to mind (can you tell a diet is in hand…) Mashed Potatoes layered with gravy…vanilla ice-cream layered with chocolate…chicken layered with goat cheese and sundried tomatoes…

    Dinner time!

    Seriously, t-shirt that fits, jeans and a button up cardigan sweater (favorite is 2 years ago Lands End version)

  127. Layering is my favorite t-shirt with ocean city sweatshirt. My new favorite would be the pearl necklace (my favorite gemstone) with the true heart necklace I got for my birthday! Too beautiful. My wishlist is a mile long.

  128. I love a long sleeved t-shirt under a short sleeved one. . .it’s a way to keep wearing my favorite t’s here in the cold Maine winter!!

    I love your blog!

  129. I love to layer long sleeve shirts under short sleeve shirts! Love the dress with jeans look, but I can’t pull that one off, so I admire others! 🙂

  130. i love to layer my hair. there’s too much of it, and it’s too thick. i also love wearing a zippy over everything. i dress my kids the same way. LOVE LOVE LOVE the necklace!

  131. I love to layer long sleeve t’s & short sleeve t’s. In TX you never know when a cold day will turn into a warm one. I also layer my sterling necklace with my leather neclaces. I’d love to add one of your designs to the layer!

  132. I love to get my hair layered! 😉

    But what I really love is being in New York in the winter, layering leggings under my jeans and shirts under sweaters under a cozy jacket with a scarf and a beanie!

    The necklaces are just adorable – I love them all!

  133. I love how layers look, it just adds a whole new dimension to pretty much anything. Probably my favorite thing to layer is food, though. Like s’mores. Those are a great example of layering!

  134. I’m a big fan of a longer tank top under a shorter shirt. Sadly, my favorite tanks are Hanes Men’s Tanks – which are totally wife beaters 🙂

  135. I love to layer me and then my daughter in a mei tai or sling. We are two layers that go together great and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Those pearls would look great with my necklace you made with my daughters name on it.

  136. I would love to layer but I’m always so hot that I just wilt faster. Love the look, though. One of these days I will get to layer again (haven’t since High School!). I bought one of the Inspired necklaces you created and love it! I would love to have another one of your designs but it is so hard to choose and with twins it is imperative that the charms match! LOL! Keeping my fingers crossed!-Katherine

  137. I love to layer my cloths when its cold, lots of tanks, long sleeve shirts and sweatshirts…….not always cute but always warm 🙂

  138. Loving layering here too. Tanks, under tees, under jackets. Then I’m warm and I look of the moment. I layer leggings a lot too.

  139. I am 35 weeks pregnant so right now my favorite way to layer is a tight t-shirt under a regular t-shirt so that everything stays covered but I don’t have to wear maternity everyday!

  140. I love the whole bright tank or tee under a fun stripey cardigan look. Something about it screams young! but not too young to me. Now that I’m in my thirties, dressing like that makes me feel like I’m an adult, but a really cool hip adult!

  141. I am a compulvise layer-er. I was doing laundry this weekend and realized that I seem to have a serious addiction to tank tops. I just feel like switching them around under my normal clothes helps them to not get old for me too fast… and it keeps things fresh 🙂

  142. I do like to layer. I rarely wear one necklace alone — usually several at a time. I love these pearls — I hope I win!

  143. I layer a hoodie over everything. Even in the summer when I am at home I throw on my hoodie.

    It’s an addiction.

    I’m wearing one right now.

    beautiful as always!

  144. this is my favorite necklace of yours!!
    oh, i am a big layer-er…primarily because in vermont the weather has no rhyme or reason, so you have to. i layer tanks, tees, dresses over jeans…
    love the layered look. my bedding is layered in whites!

  145. I live in northern cali where the weather is changeable, especially this time of year. I wear a short-sleeved T under a long-sleeved one, then a fleece vest, and finally, a waterproof jacket. I add or subtract layers as needed throughout the day. Great way to travel, too! DeborahW/Benicia, CA.

  146. I like layering long sleeve shirts under short sleeves. I also love cardigans on top of almost every outfit. Layering adds so much personality to clothes! Also just got my hair cut in more layers. 🙂

  147. My favorite way to layer? Cardstock on cards! =)But I also do jackets or sweaters over tanks or tops, especially if I am cold.

  148. I love to layer too! I wear a tank just about every day under something! And I love the layered-look of a dress with jeans!

  149. layering is the way to go: shirts under shirts, dresses over pants, quilts on quilts, eyeshadow over eyeshadow… the list never ends!

  150. i love to layer tanks with hoodies 🙂 or on the babes… a onesie under whatever they are wearing!! love your blog!!

  151. Love the necklace…love to layer! Be it a cami under a dress, skirt over leggings, long sleeved under short sleeve or long & short necklaces. I think it adds more character to the outfit = )

  152. Beautiful, classic pearls!

    I love to layer my “little black dress” with jeans, boots, a woven scarf or shrug and some vintage Indian jewelry.

    My son likes to layer Legos and is far better at it than I am!!

  153. i love to layer…blankets. Foolishly, I used to have only one jumbo duvet on the bed. Now it’s a bunch of thin blankets. Tougher to make the bed, yes, but somehow comforting.

  154. I love love love layers. I am especially fond of layering different types of bangles and bracelets with one another on my wrists. Two bangles with a chain or a watch all on one arm…it’s a lot, but I like it 🙂

  155. I love to layer the kids up with long sleeve under short sleeves. they look so cute. Especially my son with a dress shirt under the short sleeve. How adorable!!

  156. I am definitely a layered t-shirt girl. In fact I don’t know that I ever wear just one t-shirt or sweater, I usually have something underneath it. Love the layered jewelry idea!

  157. There are so many things I like to layer…I love jean jackets over khakis and button ups…I love short sleeves over long sleeves, I LOVE LOVE LOVE to put my boys in button up white shirts with cute logo t’s over the top of them…I love to layer myself with 4 children hugging me…that is my favorite layer…oh and I adore getting one more year out of my daughters dresses by putting them over jeans…what a cute look!!!

  158. I love to layer short sleeved t’s over a long sleeved t. Love your designs – thanks for sharing!

  159. I love to layer pillows. Fancy, plain frilly, all kinds. I layer them on our bed, on the couch and on our chair. I love this picture of you!

  160. I love to layer…dessert. My mother in law has a punch bowl cake that is layers of yellow cake, strawberries, pineapple, vanilla pudding, cool whip. It makes me happy because it is yummy and it reminds me of how the generations overlap or “layer” together. It is an old family recipe that has been passed on for years.

  161. Like everyone else, I love to layer my tees, tanks, and sweaters. My summer “mom-iform” consists of layered tanks with capris. On a special day, I might even trade in the capris for a peasant skirt (which is layered, of course!). I also love to layer pillows on the bed, much to my husband’s dismay. There are currently 12 on our bed!

    I love your jewelry and your blog!!

  162. My favourite way to layer is a tank top and my comfy “kangaroo jackets”. The ones with the pocket in front. So warm.

    My most recent layering was my sister’s wedding this weekend. For some reason the dress I have had for 4 months didn’t fit the morning of! It fit around the waist, but not the bust. It was too big! That’s odd for me. So… I layered. One strapless bra, one corset bra, and four socks later… it fit. Oh well!

  163. I am so addicted to layering clothes 🙂 And my favorite fragrance too! I start with the shower gel and continue the “layering” with the scented powder, the body lotion and then the perfume. Rather than being overpowering, the fragrance lingers gently all day long.

  164. Classic white tee’s with everything, sweaters, cardigans, sweatshirts… but I love how my husband layers more. He puts colors together like nothing I have ever seen and it he always looks brilliant! Your work is beautiful Lisa.

  165. I love all your jewelry! This newest one is beautiful. I love to layer tanks and t-shirts with sweatshirts or jackets. I will have to try it with necklaces. It looks great!

  166. I live to layer-love it! I usually will have a long tank top on with another over it or a t shirt over it or a long sleeve over it….you get the idea-love tanks. I need to try the dress and jeans bit-it looks so cute. Also love the jewelry layering-I’ve tried it a few times but your picture is so cute I will have to give it a go again:)

  167. My favorite layer is when I’m all snuggled up on the couch with my two little girls watching a princess movie… legs all tangled up and warm snuggly blankets keeping us warm…. I just ordered my first necklace from you – I can’t wait to get it! Lisa

  168. OH THE SWEETNESS OF LAYERS!!! Jewelry is my favorite to layer. Especially when I’m so indecisive…the heck with it…wear them all I say! LOL!! Necklaces with charms, bracelets with a watch, rings upon rings, bangles on top of bangles. And it doesn’t stop there! Clothes are fun to layer and you can make like 10 outfits out of 5 pieces. Who wouldn’t adore that???? Then there’s food, but we won’t go into that one…once you get me started I don’t think I’ll ever stop!!….LOL!!!!

  169. I always layer my shirts, usually it is a cami under a tee. I like my camis to be a bright punch of color, so when they do show it is a bit of a surprise.
    I usually layer my jewelry also, rings, bracelets, necklaces.

  170. Beautiful necklace! I recently purchased my first necklace from you, and wouldn’t it look wonderful paired with the pearls? The layered look in jewelry is something I think looks terrific, yet I haven’t tried – yet. I do layer tanks and tees under sweaters. I start out cool, but warm up quick!

  171. i ALWAYS ALWAYS ALYWAYs layer my shirts. I wear a tank under everything and most usually have a sweater on top of my shirt! I would freeze to death without LAYERS!

  172. I love to layer cake with fruit…mmm…angel food cake with a layer of whipped cream and strawberries…yum….I love the look of that pearl necklace with the silver tags! I will have to keep that in mind.

  173. One thing that I really love to layer lately is a long sleeve t-shirt and a colorful scarf/pashmina. I wear these to dress up an outfit, to warme me up when it’s chilly, and to make any outfit look instantly chic!

    Your necklace is gorgeous!! I am thinking about buying 8 of them for my bridesmaid’s gifts for my upcoming wedding!

  174. Okay so as a hairstylist I love to layer hair products! Shamp & Cond to cleanse, body building or smoothing creme to set the foundation, styling product to shape the hair and some finishing spray for shine and hold!

    I also love to layer my kids with kisses!

  175. I love to layer…jewelery especially…I have a silver cross necklace that was my grandmother’s and I love to wear a longer necklace with it…whatever goes with the outfit I am wearing so sometimes its her long amber necklac…sometimes my mama necklace from you…grandma’s cross goes with everything!

  176. i love to layer black t’s with hot color tanks, especially in the summer when I can show off newly tanned skin….I really dont wear those bright colors any other time of the year.

  177. i have a short, dark garnet necklace, that I got while on a mission trip to the DR, that I love to layer with a longer silver cross pendant. I’m usually hot, so I don’t layer clothers. plus I’m not so tall, and I don’t think layers add inches so I dont layer my clothes. hugs amy

  178. I live in Wisconsin so I love to layer my bed with blankets, down covers and quilts. Even my reading chair has a layer of vintage quilts on the the back 🙂
    Also I make a mean death by chocolate trifle. It doesn’t get any better than layering chocolate 🙂
    Have a good day!

  179. Yes, I’m a layering fool. I usually layer tanks under most shirts. It’s hard with lower rise pants to be modest and keep your skin from showing just above your waist line. So I have tons of solids and patterned tanks to layer under my shirts to try to keep some modesty going. plus I’m pretty sure no one wants to see my booty hanging out when I bend over for something! I’ve never really layered my necklaces, but would love to try it! I really like your new website! It’s great! Oh, and I love those pearls! : )

  180. I have layers of love. As my relationship with my hubby has grown over the years, the love between us has been added to and changed and gotten more complex. And since our son was born, there is this incredible layer that surrounds all of us which is indescribable. These are the best layers of all.

  181. I love little sweaters or shrugs over tanks. I do it all the time and even have my 8 year old doing it too. It just looks so cute and spring-y! Thanks for the chance to win such a beautiful necklace!

  182. i love to layer clothes as well, since i seem to be the only person who is ever cold around here.

    lately i have been layering my wedding ring on a ball chain with the mama necklace. i love wearing the two necklaces close to my heart.

  183. Oh I love layering. In scrapbookpages. In digital designs. in clothes (dresses and jeans, mainly). In jewelry.

    And in cake 😉

  184. Layering is the way to go when you are always the one that is cold. I love wearing a tank under a t-shirt then putting a cardigan over for cold times then just tying it around my waist when I get too warm. Saves others from being too warm on my account.

    Love the website. How do you find the time – and come up with these adorable pieces?

    Stephanie M.

  185. i like dresses and jeans too. oh that is such a sweet combo, the freshwater pearl necklace with the silver tags. cute! and love that pic of you! looks so vintage!

  186. I love to layer too, especially t-shirts. Lately I have also been layering pendants on your necklaces. I bought a hand painted pendant from India recently and it looks great added to a necklace I bought from you earlier this year.
