Summertime is finally here! Most of us will be having a casual summer and probably not too many occasions to get dressed up. That doesn’t mean your everyday outfits don’t need a little bling. A simple way to up the ante on a tank top and shorts is with some simple layered necklaces. Little gold necklaces are my go-to for summer and there are a lot of great options right now.
Necklace layering can be tricky. One way to take the thinking out of it is to buy a layered necklace set like these.
If you are up for trying to layer on your own here are a few tips to make it work
: : Layer different textures. // A chunky chain like some of these popular ones paired with a pendant on a simple chain work well together because the links are different sizes and shapes.
: : Look for different lengths. // Layering a variety of lengths is a great way to start. A choker, a 16-18″ length chain necklace, and a longer pendant are three lengths to look for.
: : Pair similar pendants and charms together. // There are so many ways to personalize your gold necklaces — larger pendants and smaller charms in the same style will add variety to the layered look while still complementing each other. These are a few of my favorites.
