Real Girls wear armor and pearls!
I know chain mail has this reputation for being kind of goth these days. I don't think anyone who knows me would consider me even remotely goth, even in their wildest imagination. But chain mail makes you appreciate the creativity and ingenuity of those armorers who first wove it to protect themselves or their nobles in battle. Generally in those days, the mail was probably not made of sterling silver, or embellished with pearls, as this collar is. I love the intricate look of a classic flat chain mail and I enjoy the irony of mixing something so conceptually masculine as armor with something so traditionally feminine as pearls. There, I gave the secret away. Anyway, check my website www.kissingdog.com for more entries in the Pearls and Armor collection.
