Necklaces

Women's necklaces: chains, chokers and pendants

A necklace fills the space a neckline leaves, which is why the right one changes how a top or dress reads. Forcast necklaces run from fine chains and pendants to chokers and statement pieces, in gold plated, silver, pearl, stone, resin and crystal styles. They are chosen to sit with our workwear, so a chain that looks right with a knit on Monday still works with a dress on Saturday.

Choosing a length

A choker, like the Clara Organic Pearl Choker or the Luna Statement Gold Choker, sits at the base of the neck and suits a crew neck, a strapless dress or an open collar. A short chain such as the Macie 16k Gold Plated Necklace or the Kaylee Silver Necklace lands at the collarbone and goes with almost everything. A long chain, like the Amara Long Chain Necklace, draws a line down a plain knit or a shirt dress and is the one to reach for with a high neckline.

Plain or statement

Fine chains are for every day; wear one on its own or layer two of different lengths in the same metal. Statement chokers and crystal chains, including the Amaris Crystal Chain Necklace and the Amara Statement Choker, want a plain neckline and small earrings so the necklace is the point. Pearl and stone necklaces sit in between and are the easiest way to make a black dress look dressed.

What to wear them with

A collarbone-length chain goes with a sleeveless top or a V-neck knit top. A long chain suits a shirt worn open or buttoned to the top. Match the metal to your earrings, or shop the pearl edit if you would rather not choose between gold and silver.
