Overview:
Layered Necklaces
Wearing multiple necklaces is a trend that anyone and their dog can get involved with. No matter your style or preferences, you can customise and personalise your look. One of our favourite things about layering necklaces is you get to not only adorn one of your favourite necklaces but up to three pieces to create a unique and beautiful look. You can layer anywhere between 3-4 different necklaces depending on the style that you are trying to achieve.
Choose necklaces of different lengths such as a choker, a 45cm chain and a 55cm chain. This means that each of the pieces has room to showcase their own features. Another top tip for layering necklaces is to choose chains of varying gauges. Dainty chains paired with chunkier chains work so well together because they give the layer depth, dimension and an interesting edge.
You can choose between picking one metal such as silver, rose gold or yellow gold. Alternatively, you can choose to mix and match metals for a real contemporary and modern take.
