Layered necklaces are a growing trend this year, as everyone from celebs to socialites to rock stars have been spotted on the red carpets in fabulously fierce designs that steal the scene. Multi-strand necklaces can be for dressing up or dressing down, for work or for play. With so many styles, designs and settings to choose from, there's something for everyone. Here we take a look at how to wear this fashion forward trend and share some tips for pulling off a complete look seamlessly.
If you're going to rock a multi-strand necklace to dress up an evening ensemble, pearls are a great way to go. You can throw on a necklace with several strands of classic pearls. This is a more modern take on a fashion accessory staple. Natural pearls look great when set against an LBD. To mix it up a little, try a multi-strand necklace interwoven with black strands, a pendant or rhinestones. This creates a glamorous cluster effect that really makes the outfit.
You can also wear a multi-strand necklace during the day. Look for colorful beads that go with multiple outfits from your closet. Add color to plain white tank tops and t-shirts or a summer sundress. Alternatively, you can mix and match necklaces to create a unique look that is all your own. Try it out by starting with a long pendant necklace and then adding chains of varying length. Don't be afraid to mix metals like oxidized silver or hammered gold. It's these textures and patterns that make for an interesting combination. Play around with new designs until you find ones that work for you. Multi-strand necklaces are a great way to update an old favorite and keep up with of-the-moment fashion. Best of all, many of this season's designs are both extremely chic and affordable.
This Layered Necklaces measures 24 inches on the shortest strand and 32 inches on the longest strand with the tassel hanging down another 4 inches. I have hand crafted a unique wire worked hook clasp, because nothing else would have been as beautiful.
