So when I'm having an episode I tend to wear a turtleneck to cover it up, though it irritates it even more! I like the feminine look of the rounded scoop as long as I'm not "exposed" too much! My next favorite is the open collared shirt look with one or two buttons undone. Love your many mirrors!Jacquelyn Stagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04051731884653793193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084627553585504389.post-4150990455504013152011-01-20T05:06:32.130-08:002011-01-20T05:06:32.130-08:00Darla, I don't have much luck with scarves eit...Darla, I don't have much luck with scarves either.

That type of scoop or a nice v-neck is my favorite. I have a pile of scarves but never really mastered the art of wearing them.

You do have a lovely collection of mirrors. Are you prepared for the snow we are expecting in the next 24 hours? Supposedly we will get 3-5 inches here.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328333345401673320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084627553585504389.post-17755734102947633442011-01-19T12:23:57.474-08:002011-01-19T12:23:57.474-08:00Hi my dear-that neckline is very stylish and flatt...Hi my dear-that neckline is very stylish and flattering, one of my favourites too!

Why on earth would you wish to conceal that area? This is an excellent neckline on you.<br /><br />I favour square necklines. Hard to find unfortunately. Polo or high necks I hate.
