Yes, She Has No Bananas!

June 5, 2011 by WendyB

Gorgeous blogger Susan of Style Made by Hand recently acquired my silver and sapphire lotus necklace.

$215. Click to shop.

Then she drew herself wearing it!

Susan's self-portrait with lotus necklace.

Susan says she much prefers the delicate lotus necklace to something chunky — like a collar of bananas.

Susan says "no" to bananas.

These lovely drawings illustrate a very thoughtful post on discovering one’s style. See what Susan has to say about that here.

    Wendy, thank you so much for featuring my drawings. I know who to talk to when it’s time for a little levity. The idea of a collar of bananas cracks me up every time I think of it!

    That Aimee Mullins video was unbelievably inspiring. I am talking to some girls about self-esteem and body image next week and I’m going to incorporate this somehow!
