Keep This in Mind When Learning How to Layer Necklaces

Necklace layering is the art of wearing multiple necklaces at once to create a chic, stylish look.

Mixing different necklace styles and lengths is key to successful necklace layering. Short necklace chokers can be layered with longer pendant necklaces, for example. Or, you could try layering multiple strands of beads or a pearl necklace.

The options are infinite! This allows you to experiment with combinations until you find a look you love.

Before you start layer necklaces, it is important to keep the following in mind:

Your necklace layer should always be visible. This is the whole point!

  • Pay attention to necklace lengths. You don’t want your necklaces to tangle.
  • Mixing metals can be a tricky option. We recommend you choose similar metals or colors for a cohesive look.
  • Avoid over-accessorizing. Sometimes less is more.

Now that you know the basics, let’s get layering!

Heidi Daus Top Tips for Layering Necklaces

Layer 1: The Statement Necklace Piece

Every great necklace layer starts with a statement piece. This is the star of the show, the necklace that will make people do a double-take.

It can be big and bold chain necklaces, or small and delicate rose gold layer. The key is to make sure it stands out.

Layer 2: The Layer of Contrast

The second layer is all about contrast. If your statement piece is a bold and thicker chain, layer a delicate necklace. If your statement piece is small and dainty, layer a chunkier necklace to add dimension.

Layer 3: The Layer of Color and Texture

The third layer is all about playing with texture and a pop of color.

Feel free to add some interest and dimension to your necklace layer. Choose a necklace with an interesting chain or pendant—this is a great opportunity to mix and match metals for a more eclectic look.

Layer 4: The Finishing Touch

The fourth layer is the finishing touch. This layer is all about adding a bit of personality to your necklace layer. Choose a necklace with a personal meaning or a fun and quirky pendant, which are currently popular necklace trends.

Now that you know how to layer necklaces, it’s time to put your new skills to the test. Grab your most outstanding jewelry pieces and start layering!
