You guys, chokers are back!

They’re so tacky! You can look like a Civil War-era madame!

Or a saloon singer, draped over the PIE-ANAH crooning a tune while the menfolk grunt atcha:

You can layer them for a Coachella vibe:

This leather lariat style is pretty okay, except that these give me the eerie feeling that they’re holding the wearer’s head on her neck:

Beaded!

Lacy and kinda bridal!

This works as hipster style. You have to commit to a whole look.

In short, PeaceBang thinks that chokers are mostly dated, tacky, and have limited appeal. If you lean slightly Gothward or Boho, I bet you can rock them. If you wear clericals, you don’t even need to think about them. Isn’t that convenient? A trend you can TOTALLY IGNORE with an even freer conscience than usual!

  1. Agree totally, except that the saloon singer one is SO PRETTY. PINK AND GREEN. Nope, a no go zone, but that one is hard.

    [If I had a swan-like neck, I think I would also be tempted to make that one work. – PB]

  2. I wear one every day. Of course, it’s always solid white, made of linen (never that icky plastic which is never cool no matter what they call it), and well over an inch wide. [Exactly. Classic and timeless. – PB]
