I’m the type of girl who thinks pairing the perfect accessories can make an outfit look amazing. But remember—be mindful that the wrong accessory may not compliment your look.
I have selected a few amazing neckpieces that are guaranteed NOT to make you feel bulky and also complete your winning look!

- Make a statement with your necklace. Style Note: You can always use a safety pin to adjust the height of where the necklace sits on your collarbone, décolletage, and beyond.

Style Note: Try layering chunkier pieces with long, streamlined chains. This will offset your breast–chest-waist ratio.
- Choose pendants and pieces you can layer. Bibs, lariats, collars, tassels, or singular strands necklaces all come in a facet of designs. Rose gold is super trendy right now. With this set of styles, like my tip above, try layering chunkier pieces with long streamlined chains.

Style Note: Be sure to try them on and make sure they sit firmly around the neck or right above the collarbone. Also practice head bobbing up and down. There is no need to suffocate for fashion!
