Choosing The Right Necklace Length

by Andrew Wilson Online Jewelry Store

Necklaces bring with them beauty, elegance and grace. They enhance the glow of a lady and the calm of a man. But choosing the right length for a necklace that will enhance it just enough and create a perfect and unique image of his/her personality can be very tricky.

We often set our minds to finding the perfect neck piece for a dress, but while doing this, we must also keep the length, style and design of the necklace that will suit our face, neck and body the best. There are many types, ones with a religious affliction like the unique cross necklaces or the more funky ones that just portray your heart's joys. Here are a few aspects to keep in mind before buying that precious piece of jewelry.

· Swans and cuteness

The length of your neck matters the most while choosing jewelry. If you have a swan like neck, long and slender, then a choker of about 16inches would look beautiful. But if you have a chubby, cute little neck or even one that isn’t long, then you should go with a matinee of about 20-24 inches. Similarly, the width of your neck also creates a difference in how the re neck piece looks at you.

· Faces change

The shape of your face matters in choosing your necklaces as necklaces are meant to enhance your outer beauty. A choker on a round face makes it look rounder, whereas a long piece which cuts into a ‘V’ is bound to make your face slim away into elegance. At the same time, a heart shaped face will love a round choker or a princess which sits just right, on the collarbone. Oval shaped faces are known to go well with all types but you must keep your neck, body type and style in mind here.

· Dress up

Never forget the kind of dress you are wearing while choosing a necklace. A deep cut dress is always enhanced with a small princess cut, or a matinee that rides along to just above your bust. Contrastingly, if you are wearing a turtleneck or a high neck top, then an opera or long ropes would suit best.

If the length of the necklace is 14 inches, then the style which fits it best is the collar style, and it must be placed tightly around the neck. Such a cross pendant necklace goes well with open neck and clothing off the shoulder tops.

If the length of the necklace is 18 inches, then the style which fits it best is the princess style, and it must be placed almost on the collarbone. Such a cross pendant necklace goes well with almost all types of tops.

If the length of the necklace is 36 inches, then the style which fits it best is the rope style, and it must be placed to sit on the bust. Such a cross pendant necklace goes well with business and evening wears.

All said and worn, the neck pieces you choose bring out the brighter, more positive and a glowing version of you that is bound to attract all the best vibes. So wear it with pride and wear it for yourself.
