Making Long Necklaces Work
Long necklaces have recently become quite fashionable. Available in so many different varieties that the only hard part is choosing what outfits to pair them with. Long necklaces look best with v-neck tops, whether it’s in t-shirts, long sleeved tops, dressy blouses, and even tank tops. However, they can be paired with any outfit, for easy, instant style. You can find long necklaces at virtually any store in the jewelry department. Regular long necklaces, such as those made of sterling silver or only coated with a gold color, can be found hanging usally on racks with rings and earrings. You can also find finer long necklaces in glass dislplay cases in most stores, such as target or wal-mart. Besides finding them in stores, you can find them online as well, either on amazon.com, ebay, or many other online retailers. There are even sites like etsy.com that feature handmade jewelry for a more edgy feel. As with most jewelry, long necklaces can vary from color to color. You can find gold, sterling silver, and some coated with other colors such as black or green to add some pop to an outfit. The styles can go from long necklaces of beads, to chain links, to being connected together with hoops that make up the chain of the necklace. Some even have small ribbons or feathers attached to the length of the chain. A necklace is usually considered a long necklace after it reaches a few inches past your collarbone. You can adjust the chain of a long necklace simply by putting the necklace on, twisting it, and then putting it over your head a second time, so it looks as if you have on a double chain. Long necklaces can be layered too, depending on how heavy you would like your chain jewelry to look. For example, a more “rock” look could have some silver long necklaces, coupled with a black long necklace, or a glittery one. Whereas pastel beaded long necklaces look great with classic white v-neck shirts. The great thing about them is you can adjust them by length, choose the color, and they add spice to any outfit. So many styles to try!
