Post by Jessie »

Has any one every used a choker (a short length of cloth or ribbon, or a short necklace, that fastens closely around the neck and is worn as an ornament) to maybe hide the other side. I have today been contact with someone who makes them and sells them on ebay am thinking of buying a velvet one. What do you think?

Hi all,

Jessie,

Yes, I have, but only rarely (when trying for a Goth look). I consider myself fortunate, in that my Adam's apple is not very prominent.

Love,
CJ

Hi Jessie,
Of course it necessarily goes with certain styles of dress. I have no cloth chokers, but I do have several necklaces that would qualify as "chokers." One is about seven stands of pearls, one is about three stands of pearls. and the other is a white, single stand of "stones." Like CJ said they will hide the "adams apple" but you have to be fairly style conscious to know what goes with what. You do not want to attract too much attention to your neck area as on us ours tend to be thicker. Anyway you may want to try a nice scarf tied loosely around the neck and draped over the shoulder, Just a thought!
Love,
Virginia

I've one on in my avatar. I don't usually wear it unless I'm wearing something special.

This is just a follow up. I was wonderin what you would suggest as to how much I should go on bidding for this item. It is starting at $8 w/ $3 shipping. I was thinking of going no higher than $10. I just hope that I am not giving it up to any one else.
