We all know about Sarah Jessica Parker’s infamous “Carrie” necklace from Sex And The City. I can recall begging my mom for my nameplate necklace back in middle school circa ’96-’98. And for the love of gold jewelry, I even saved all of my allowance in high school to pay the layaway every week for my oversized bamboo earrings with my name in the middle. In a nutshell, that pretty much makes this “trend” BC (before Carrie ha!).
Mostly popular in the urban community, until Carrie sent fashionistas into a customized frenzy, turning this jewelry piece into a chic staple piece…now everyone has to have one! I can’t post a picture or come in contact with someone without them asking “oohhh, where’d you get your necklace from?!”
My “Mia Ray” necklace was a gift from my boyfriend, almost 4 years ago. I randomly told him one day how bad I wanted a nameplate necklace (since I lost the one I had in 1997) and for my birthday that year, this was my gift. I absolutely adore it, which is why I’ve probably only taken it off about 3 times since the day he placed it around my neck. I usually only remove it if it’s conflicting with another necklace that I decide to wear.
My Glam-Aholics know that I’m all about branding, which is why I had to have a “Glam-Aholic” nameplate as well! Yes, just call me 2 Chains Ray! LOL Since I’m all about sharing my goodies with you guys, I have a great deal involving the company that made my “Glam-Aholic” necklace…

I think I’m gonna go ahead and grab another necklace, y’all know how hard it is for me to pass up a good sale 🙂
My mom bought me one for my 8th grade graduation in ’94. I wore it all the time. The day I took it off to wear something else they broken in and stole it during a home invasion. I replaced some of the pieces lost but I haven’t been able to find one to match the type or sentiment I felt about that one.
Guess I’ll get out on the hunt soon for it!
I’ll order one when I get my refund check in the fall, lol.
