Cute Ways to Wear a Chunky Necklace

Overview

Need to amp up the wow factor in your wardrobe? Drape your neck in beautiful baubles. When your necklace is big, chunky and colorful, it makes a serious fashion statement that never goes out of style. To give your outfit personality and flair, dress up your wardrobe favorites with a fabulous piece of statement jewelry that is splashy, fabulous and fierce.

With a V-Neck Dress

A statement chunky bauble worn around the neck gives a simple V-neck dress a little attitude. Take a cue from the runway and pair your black or blue dress with a red, white or gold chunky necklace. To keep the fashion police away from your closet, don’t wear your big and fabulous baubles with patterns or prints. Keep sparkle and prints in your wardrobe; just don’t wear them all at once.

For Evening

To dress up a strapless evening gown, adorn your neck with a sparkling and chunky necklace that will make your outfit pop. Whether you are wearing a strapless floor-grazing gown, or a black silk or satin pantsuit, cast a flattering glow on your face with a clear crystal or white sapphire-encrusted chunky choker. To ensure that your earrings don’t compete with your neck bling, wear diamond or cubic zirconium studs in your ears.

For Daytime

Planning a special shopping trip to your mall with your girlfriends? Dress up a classic and casual white t-shirt with a multi-colored chunky necklace. Balance your vibrantly colored purple, pink and blue necklace with a pair of dark navy blue jeans and a white cotton tailored blazer. With a solid navy blue and white outfit as your canvas, pile on the extras such as a hot handbag and a cute pair of shoes. Complete the look with navy leather ballet flats and a pink, blue or purple leather clutch purse.

As a Bracelet

A cool bracelet or an interesting necklace can really elevate your basic workplace or casual look. If you are wearing a blouse with a high neck, wrap a chunky bracelet around your wrist for added sparkle. Or, to dress up your summer sleeveless frock, wrap your bracelet three times around your wrist for an unexpected accent that is fashion-forward and fun.
