I'm reading the current issue of New York Mag ... on page 23 there's a single column article entitled "Stying Tips I Borrowed From the Rock" by Sarah Spellings.
I'm always on the lookout for styling tips.
She has three tips: "The Tony Soprano" - "The Ladies Who Lunch" - and "The Belt."
All three are rather doable for me.
The Tony Soprano is a black turtleneck, black leather jacket and gold chain. Already one of my looks .... now it has a name. My black turtleneck collection takes up about 4' of the closet rod!
The Ladies Who Lunch is a camel turtleneck and single or multiple pearl necklaces. I have a camel - never considered pearls - but I'm wearing the look (some real and some faux) to my meeting next Tuesday. I'm thinking some creamy and some gray faux on the camel shirt - with dark gray pants. Sarah writes: "a single string of pearls will make you look like a chic granny. To make even more of an impact, layer multiple pearl necklaces on top of one another."
The Belt - don't know about this look. Sarah writes "If a choker-length chain isn't enough, try a belt. You can use anything that has hardwar - all you have to do is believe."

Vintage chain belts as necklaces? They are some of my faves!

@ALRATIBA IMHO, strands of pearls, even different colors, tend to read matronly or too expected, formal. I like to mix one strand with a few fine chains, maybe a small pendant hanging from one. I also don't follow "looks". I make my own.

I have never liked necklaces on a turtleneck. Instead do earrings and chunky bracelet.

My usual look is (a) some sort of long scarf or (b) handmade vest or sweater or (c) multiple long gold chains - or (d) some combination of those three. Depends on my mood.
Definitely going with the multiple pearls for Tuesday meeting. What other people think about how I look is their problem, not mine.

We had some knockout turtlenecks this year! A scotch plaid in navy and blue, and a multi colored plaid as wear as a poka dot I never wore mine!!! (Although, I wore the heck out of my black or navy and bought backups!).
There's always next year

@ALRATIBA When I checked out the Coldwater creek website to see what they had to offer I found a few turtlenecks on sale. One was a Supima blend and another was actually a turtleneck T-shirt. Lots of colors!

Turtleneck with some jewelry always looks nice to me.

The only time I wear my herringbone is with a turtleneck. It lays perfectly.
I love black black BLACK turtlenecks. Have 5 and backups with tags. Same for navy, like true midnight navy.
No leather jackets for me, but many nice black quilted vests and outerwear waist length jackets-same effect.
Alas, too warm now for turtlenecks, and that's fine with me!
