Fashion Trend: The Statement Necklace

May 20, 2008 06:00 PM

Recently we reported on the charm necklace -- you know, sweet, pretty, delicate -- and this week, the necklace trend? The bold, flashy, splashy statement necklace. Which could either be a major contradiction or just an indication that, style wise, this season you have plenty of freedom of expression. We’re going with the latter . . . Just remember, it’s all in the name. The necklace makes the statement, so the rest of the ensemble should provide a simple, chic backdrop. And make sure the size of the necklace is in proportion to the rest of you, so as not to get overwhelmed by the hardware around your neck.

Pieces we like:

Triple Strand Leopard Beaded Necklace, $19.99, JC Penney (pictured above)

Subversive for Target Cameo Multi-Row Necklace, $59.99, Target

Ribbon Necklace with Block Stones, $12, Twelve by Twelve

I LOVE this!!  I started getting back into necklaces a couple of years ago and this one would definitely go well with my collection!

I do love statement necklaces, but that one isn’t exactly right for me! One of the more beautiful ones I’ve ever come across isn’t exactly budget but it’s so beautiful- it’s handmade by French designer Aris Geldis. You can see it on The Talk Market!

I definitely would buy this necklace. I have a piece that’s a little similar but in pinks/purples.
