When choosing a necklace to wear
with a small pendant, make sure that the size of the necklace is in proportion
to the pendant. Also you will find that a plain gold necklace
will allow the pendant to be the feature, rather than the chain itself. You
will notice how the necklace worn with the v-neck is in great proportion to the
clustered diamond pendant and the pendant is the feature of this combination.
Hello I'm Rachel
and I'm going to be giving you guys a little bit of advice about something that I've
definitely had a few questions about over time which is what necklaces go well
with what necklines.
So let's get started. All right
let's start off with a crewneck top which is the one I'm wearing currently. It
is a neckline that is curved and isn't like your higher neck stuff. When you
have a crewneck or a curved neckline on your top you need to make sure that
your necklace actually follows that line as well so I wouldn't have a v-shaped
necklace. As you can see with this necklace it lays really nicely it's not up
here looking a little bit awkward how the tassels are and stuff like that. You
need to keep in mind as well also about how your necklace lays.
The next really simple neckline is
the ‘V’ neck which is pretty self-explanatory it is a neckline in the shape of
a V. What I was talking about with the crewneck and following the shape with
the round neckline with a v-neck you also need to have a necklace that follows
the V shape. So this is a perfect opportunity to wear a really simple necklace
and it'll look really cute
.
Another thing you could do if you
want something a bit more ‘statementy’ and less simple is you could wear a
necklace like this. It also shows the v-shape and looks incredibly cute. Next
is the high neckline like this top here. Now a high neckline is the perfect
opportunity to be wearing a statement necklace. Statement necklaces are
definitely one of my favourite things right now and they definitely add
something a bit extra to the outfit.
The next one that I know a lot of
people struggle with is the one-shoulder. Now for the one shoulder I'm going to
tell you right now do not wear a necklace. Honestly it's just going to look
awkward and adding a pair of statement earrings instead is so much more worthwhile.
Now one thing I really want you guys to take away from this today is only have
one statement accessory whether it's your neck lace, your earrings or a ring or
even a headband. Only have one thing, I mean honestly even though I’m talking
about necklaces in particular today, you don't have to have your necklace as
your statement piece. So I have my statement earrings and I have a really
simple bracelet and a ring instead of the necklace.
Next is the sweetheart neckline
and in are you guys right now module at whoa that's not a sweetheart neckline.
Okay it's the exact same rules as if you have straps or if you don’t. Have your
sweetheart neckline is exactly the same as having a v-neck, the same rules
apply to that, because there's still got the tiny little v-shape. I have once
again have a very simple little necklace.
So with the roll neck I like to
wear longer necklaces because I feel like if you wear shorter necklaces it's
just going to look chunky and bulky because you've already got a lot going on
up here so I would say definitely stick to longer necklaces. Next is the
strapless neckline which is self-explanatory there's no straps going on here.
So my favourite thing with a strapless is to wear a statement necklace with it
with a rounded shape. When you've got a strapless neckline it's really
important to know you have a decent gap between your necklace and your neckline
so it's not looking awkward. Like what I talked about with like the tassels are
making sure it lays flat and doesn't look awkward.
My other recommendation with a
strapless neckline is; a longer style necklace because it always looked really
really cute it's obviously not going to have any awkward situations and
actually I'm going to have another recommendation as well. When you have a
strapless dress make sure that you actually feel comfortable in it, it's not
falling down you're not pulling it up all the time because it's not going to
look really pretty. So when you wear a strapless dress make sure you feel
comfortable in it you can absolutely just rock that dress.
Okay, second last is my favourite
thing coloured button up shirts, so my favourite thing to do with them is
definitely to have a cute little pendant peeking out through the collar.
Another recommendation that I have is when you have silver buttons or trims or
things like that on whatever it is you're wearing. Make sure that your
accessories actually match because it's going to look awkward if you have gold
buttons or something going down your shirt and then you have all silver
accessories.
You want everything to match and
for it to just look incredible. Last but certainly not least is the cut-out
neckline. Now a cut-out neckline is definitely part of the statement of your
outfit so there's no point in putting a necklace right next to it. It's not
going to look very good. So like what I said with the one-shoulder dress wear
maybe some statement earrings instead.
With this dress though it's
definitely an incredibly bright colour it is the statement of my outfit so with
this I am going to go with some really simple earrings and with the collared
dress it's really important to think about also contrasting, like what I've
done with this bracelet here. I hope this video has been helpful for maybe at
least one of you guys and if you want me to do more videos like this in the
