Statement jewelry is more popular than ever. Loud statement pieces dominated New York Fashion Week for 2017 - That's all well and good for models...But how do WE pull off one of the hottest looks of the season?

Watch our short 4 minute video on how to wear statement necklaces (like a real person).

 

 

We've summarized the tips below: 

1. Select the Right Neckline: Generally speaking, necklines should be higher to showcase the statement. If you're going to wear a v-neck wear a smaller statement necklace.

2. Watch your Proportions: Don't wear a large statement necklace on your bare skin. Ensure there is a good skin to necklace ratio :)

3. Wear Stud Earrings: Don't allow your jewelry to compete - Wear one statement piece only.

4.  Unbuttoned Shirts = Small Statement: Always wear a smaller statement under an unbuttoned shirt. 

5. Buttoned Shirts = Large Statement: Opt for a larger, v-shaped statement necklace when you rock a buttoned up shirt. 

6. Add a Pop of Color: Add a contrasting color pop to your look. Use the color wheel to find two opposite colors and pair accordingly. Want more pop inspiration? Read our pop of color blog.
