STATEMENT NECKLACES ARE THE ANSWER TO ALLLLL OF THE ABOVE
*phew* If only CXC or a thesis were so easy lol but
seriously, statement necklaces solve every outfit's problems I swear!!!! Of
course there are specific pieces that work better with certain necklines but
we'd venture into that another day for today we celebrate the
#statementnecklacewhore hidden in all of us
Tribal
Metal
Ornate
Pearls
Chokers
TRUST ME There's something for all of us in a statement
necklace! now don't be afraid I'm not sending you into the world looking like a
Masai priestess or worst yet an escapee from the Nina, Pinta and the
Santa Maria (don't go straining your neck and blaming it on me!!!)
if this trend is new to you start slowly
My favourite for newbies are pearls double a strand n turn
it into a choker, add another layer and you're on your way to a full statement
necklace diva but if you're not sure test the waters a bit first...
Tribal pieces have recently become the rage these thankfully
come in amazing colours and require little to no Kelly's or Michelle's for
support
Here are my statement necklace rules to LIVE BY
- Pair
with a simple button earring you don't want to take away from your neck
piece by confusing it with an over-sized over done earring
- Your
only other accessory should be your clutch and either bangles or an
amazing ring
- Create
a clean canvas i.e. Exposed skin or a flat coloured top or dress
- Bigger
is better!!!!!
Statement necklaces are the easiest, fastest and most
economical way to spruce up an otherwise boring outfit... Speaking of
economical I have a store to introduce you'll too but shhhh that's another post
for another time
