See It On The Evening News


While my husband is gnashing his teeth over our falling stock, I'm distracting myself by checking out the anchor's necklace...Katie Couric's of course, not Tom Brokaw's. Anchorwomen and news talk show hosts are very astute at selecting a necklace or earrings to enhance their looks. Have you ever noticed how some of their guests never quite achieve the same polished look as their host? TV regulars are usually great at jewelry accessorizing since you only see them from the waist up. In the 80's the popular heavy chained choker was actually called the "anchor" necklace. So when you get up to get your husband some aspirin, double-check the women on the news. Take a second look at Hilary's or Rep. Nancy Pelosi's necklace, Gov. Palin's brooch, and Condaleeza's pearls while you pity those poor guys who only get to wear ties. At least we can wear some jewelry to cheer us up!
