My colleague Sara sashayed into my office this morning in a black, draped cotton top with an oversized turquoise-colored beaded bracelet. The dark, demure top was the perfect backdrop for the exuberant bracelet. I complimented her on the bracelet, and Sara mentioned that it was a gift from a friend, and she often receives compliments on it… so she wears the bracelet when she’s with her friend, so her friend can hear the compliments, too. Which I found even more elegant than her lovely outfit!
