Layering necklaces
Fashion is all about what makes you feel amazing, layering necklaces can give you an effortless but chic look with minimal effort.
Achieving a on point look by layering your necklaces is easy once you know what works for you.
It's a way to have fun and create a different look over and over.
I personally like to put something simple on each chain and work with two necklaces to three necklaces.
The first step is to buy a layering clasp, this will stop your necklaces from getting tangled and keep everything sitting where you want.
Two to five layers is best, I personally prefer two to three.
You want a focal point, the star of your pieces. This is your starting point; the remainder necklaces should showcase or complement this piece.
Next up is choosing your pieces, are you looking for a fun look, sultry, relaxed, on trend, colorful etc. When you look at a piece of art you will see layers, complexity, complementary elements and that could be a way to look at layering pieces.
Adding a gemstone piece, a chain without a pendant and a beaded necklace might be the balance you're after.
Pay attention to your outfit and the other pieces of jewellery you are wearing.
The best tops with layered necklaces are V-neck, scoopneck, strapless, spaghetti straps. If your necklaces are the focal point, then keep loud prints to a minimum.
Keep other pieces of jewellery simple such as stud earrings and a cocktail ring.
Jewellery should complement you so have fun with layering.
