I always thought that accessories are wiser purchase than clothing. A good accessory is one that could endure time and impulse and is best seen as the foundation of the outfit. Sometimes one necklace is all it takes to completely change the whole outfit and its atmosphere. Today I present five classical necklaces that can be matched with almost any piece of clothing you have in your wardrobe, resulting in a timeless collection that doesn’t need any updates.
However, always save this post, or simply follow our brand-m&f jewelry,so that we can curate your dream accessory wardrobe in no time at all. Let’s get started!
1.Pearl Necklace
First up, we have the classic: the pearl necklace. This is genuinely the epitome of an ageless piece of clothing – never needs updating, and can be matched with any item of clothing. This one is incredibly versatile, and suitable for absolutely everyday wear regardless of age or skin tone or the occasion, and layering it with others works really well too.
How to Choose the Perfect Pearl Necklace:
Simple design: Avoid designs that have many additional pendants, charms or metal decorations.
Size matters: The size of the pearl should be between 4mm and 6mm to give the pearl a perfect appearance. While anything larger can sometimes be overbearing and too much for daily use, anything of a smaller size may equally not be easily noticeable.
Go for natural pearls: Consider Saltwater pearls if you can. Compared to those coming from the freshwater, their shine and hue are much higher.
Length: Generally, the length should be 40-42 cm which will lay right at the upper chest area on the collarbone bone- good for any neckline.
2.Delicate Pendant Necklace
Moving to the next, no jewelry box is complete without this pretty pendant necklace. Basically, it is best for revealing your neckline, it creates an impression of a slimmer face and the piece is so versatile.
How to Choose the Right Pendant Necklace:
Simple pendant: As with the name, keep it simple, something small and clean, perhaps like a small circle or bar. These designs are simple and non-gaudy and will not be considered out of fashion anytime soon.
Finer chain: Chain has to be thin and unobtrusive, not cover the pendant and overshadowing it.
Material: K gold is the best choice. It is very strong and will not fade over time. If you want to reduce costs, you can choose a sterling silver necklace with 18k gold plating.
3.Bohemian Bead Necklace
For those that enjoy the whole free spirit look then the bohemian bead necklace is perfect for you. I used it for summer clothes, beach pictures, or to spice up my everyday looks a little bit. Obviously, the bohemian style is always popular, and it is incredibly comfortable to wear.
How to Choose the Right Bead Necklace:
Size of beads: For the first type the recommended size is moderate size beads, though round ones 3.5-6mm. Big ones can somehow spoil the overall appearance of the room while a small ones may not create the needed effect.
Color consistency: Use beads that are of a single shade preferably turquoise, coral, or any color that blends with the two. These are interchangeable and you can wear them with anything.
Length: Ideally between 30-45cm; this length falls right at the collarbone and is considered timeless and elegant.
4.Long chain necklace
A long chain necklace is a must-have. It’s best paired with a sweater when the weather is still cold, or with a plain t-shirt if you just want to liven up your look. It’s one of those accessories that you don’t realize how much it helps your outfit until you put it on.
How to choose the right long chain necklace:
Length: I find a 60-70cm chain ideal, which hits mid-chest.
Material: Gold or silver metal chains work well with all kinds of clothes. You can also pair it with a black leather or fabric rope if you prefer a casual look.
Pendant: Don’t make the pendant too big, and a solid pendant will look more textured.
5.Statement necklace of one’s choice
Every lady require a statement necklace according to her jewelry collection. Statement necklaces may be initials, symbols or a stone that carries some form of meaning or sentiment to the bearer.
How to Choose the Right Statement Necklace:
Design: Options with letters or symbols that have special meanings.
Material: Choose a durable metal.
