Statement Makers: Necklaces
If you’ve never been much of an accessories kinda girl, I totally understand any hesitation towards statement necklaces. But here’s the thing, they actually can be super helpful. Statement necklaces have been a huge trend for a while now, and it doesn’t seem like they’re going anywhere any time soon. For good reason, too: the right statement necklace can bring any outfit to the next level. A really glam one can transform a plain outfit into something special, and a large one might be the only accessory you need with a certain dress They can transform a boring outfit into something a little more interesting, or add that touch of girly to your usual tomboy style. Once you see how useful statement necklaces truly are to amplifying your wardrobe, I think you might change your mind :).
So here’s my confession: i have a huge collection of statement necklaces but never wear them. These tips I am about to bestow on you are tips I plan on taking into account as well so rest assured I will be practicing what I preach when it comes to this post. More months if not years my necklaces have just been sitting there gathering dust. I like many of you I’m guessing, used to think that I could only wear my statement pieces on special occasions but that not true. As the weather tends to cool off and our outfits tend to get bulkier it is important to keep the spice 😉 in our wardrobe.
Here are a few ways I plan on keep that “Spice this winter”…
TO MAKE A SIMPLE OUTFIT MORE INTERESTING:
Whether it’s jeans and a t-shirt or black trousers and a classic white top, a simple outfit can often look boring. Adding a statement necklace is a great way to make the outfit look complete.
TO MAKE A TOMBOY LOOK MORE FEMININE:
To avoid looking completely like a boy in your sweatshirt and ripped jeans, throw on a statement necklace for that touch of feminine flare. Note: It is ok to look like a complete tomboy just remember to be you.
TO COMPLETE A BOLD LOOK:
If you’re going bold with prints and pops of color, tie the look together with a statement necklace.
KEEP IT COLLARED:
Update your oxford by buttoning your blouse all the way up. Then layer your look-at-me necklace under the collar so it is just peeking out from underneath the collar.
MONO-CHROME:
A statement necklace is a great way to add depth to a otherwise boring and one tone outfit. Try pairing bright colors or all diamond/crystal with a outfit that only has one color.
