I am really enjoying wearing this different lengths, and layered with other pieces, so it peeks out from under thicker and bolder necklaces. I, for one, am not bothered that it doesn't have a huge bling factor. I like the shine of the gold on the very beautifully shaped contours of the bow. I also tightened it to choker length and put the bow on a 45 degree angle instead of letting it hang straight down.
