If you're feeling more low-key on a given day, or even inspired to be extravagant at other times, you need to strategize and accessorize with the right necklace. You can choose among a vast variety of styles, including elegant and classy pearl necklaces, colorful and lively gemstone necklaces, and stunning diamond necklaces that will make you look like a billion bucks in a matter of seconds. So, let's do it in steps. Get ready and dive in!

Step 1: Let's begin with the necklace fit

As you read this post, you may think that it takes some major skill to find the right necklace for the right occasion. But that's why we put together this guide, to make this as easy as it gets for you. Let’s start with the fit of the necklace, that is, the length of its chains.
 
Necklaces come in several different lengths, and that's precisely why they're able to fit any style, taste, and personality whatsoever. In that sense, the design of a necklace says a lot about its wearer. It sends a clear message regarding their personality and personal style.

Here are some general guidelines to follow when choosing the length of a necklace. For a bolder look suited to those with a more daring fashion sense, go with a shorter length necklace. Medium-sized chains, on the other hand, are a great match for people that prefer to go for classic and traditional styles, whereas casual, laid back personalities usually go for longer necklaces that make a perfect complement to boho, hippie styles.
 
If you're looking for a necklace to wear on an everyday basis that is able to suit any occasion, opt for a mid-size necklace, as you can never go wrong with it. When you stick to a rather classic look, that's when you know that you'll always get it right. With mid-size necklaces, you can step up your game instantly, keeping it classy yet without being too over the top if you accessorize with a perfect pendant.

For guidance on how to accessorize smart with pendants, speak to one of our experts at Cellini Design Jewelers. They will make sure you find the right pendant to meet your needs. That way, you can dress up in no time as you go about your work day, then attend a happy hour showing off a beautiful pendant that takes your necklace to the next level. That upgrade can be easily achieved with our selection of stunning diamond pendants, or even gemstone pendants if you prefer to play with the vast color palette they offer.

Step 2: Decide on your necklace's metal type  

Some people have a preference for a particular kind of metal, either because they simply prefer that metal tone or because it naturally suits their skin color perfectly. Yellow gold necklaces, for one, bring out the natural glow found in warmer, tanner skin tones. In a similar fashion, rose gold necklaces also work wonders for this same skin tone, but with an added touch of embracing romance.

On the other hand, white gold is the safest metal to go for, given that they make the perfect match for virtually any complexion. Not to mention that gold is timeless, hence the reason white gold necklaces are such a popular choice among so many people. On a related note, sterling silver necklaces can be a very good alternative given its high-quality and the fact that it comes at a more affordable price, when compared to gold.
