I absolutely love these hand-embroidered necklaces by MOSS. They are so intricate and lovely…it’s like wearing a tiny piece of art around your neck. And you can’t beat the price either.

I think it calls up memories of heading back to school and chilly Friday evenings spent at high school football games. And just in time to make my [...]
