It’s hard for me to imagine a time where I didn’t love wishbones. Every year at Thanksgiving, I was (and still am) eager to battle it out with one of my family members for the bigger side of the wishbone so I can make a wish. Sure, this might seem silly to some, but I always believe that a little wish can go a long way.
So, it’s really no surprise that in my adult years that I’ve grown to love basically anything with a wishbone symbol on it. My sister even found and bought me a vintage wishbone brooch for my wedding day, which I had secured to the ribbon on the stem of my bouquet. I especially love wishbone necklaces because they are delicate and can be worn with practically anything, including the softest of sweaters and leather leggings.

I also happen to love online shopping and finding new retailers that sell affordable fashion, accessories and home decor, such as The Shopping Bag. They even send your merchandise in a cute, canvas shopping bag so you still receive the experience of shopping in-person at a boutique all from the comfort of your home!
And, guess what?! The Shopping Bag is offering 25% off orders to all Miss in the Midwest readers. Simply use the code MISSINTHEMIDWEST at checkout, and be sure to use #theshoppingbag on Instagram to share your purchases!

Girl, you are the absolute sweetest! Luckily, Ryan and I shot these on one of the "warmer" days last weekend, so I actually wasn't too cold. That sweater combined with the leather leggings actually is a very warm outfit! The wishbone necklace totally seems like your style – I've been laying mine with other necklaces, too, but I always love it best just on its own.
I just double-checked all the links in my post, and they all seem to be working on my computer. If you continue to have a problem, just email me and I can send you a link directly!

Oh my goodness you look so stunning in these photos! It must have been chilly but I think it was worth it! I've been looking for some more delicate necklaces recently, since most of mine are either long chains or statement pieces. A wishbone sounds like it would be perfect!
I have been wearing the necklace on repeat and layered with other necklaces, too. It literally can go with anything. The Shopping Bag is definitely a great new online discovery – you should check it out!
Awe, thanks lady! Luckily, we shot this look on one of the warmer days last weekend so I didn't freeze. π I definitely plan to layer this necklace with others in my collection.
Love your outfit! You look beautiful as always and that background is pretty. I just hope that you didn't get too cold out there! π I also love delicate jewelry, and sometimes I layer my necklaces. I hope that you are having a good day so far too!
Thank you! Wish bones pretty much have been with me my whole life, so I just have a sentimental attachment to them. π
Lol, yeah – he's pretty cute. π
Thank you!
Thanks, girl!
