Pair with casual attire
When wearing clothes with a high neckline, such as a turtleneck or boatneck, adding volume with a long necklace will elongate the eye and make you appear slimmer. Also, when wearing a cut-and-sew top with a wide neckline or a shirt with two or three buttons open, choose a shorter necklace that won't get in the way of the clothes.
If you want to add a touch of glamour to a dress or other item, it's a good idea to choose something with volume, regardless of its length. There are many necklaces on the market these days that have large components.
It would also be stylish to pair a voluminous necklace with a simple T-shirt or knitwear. A playful necklace with casual clothes will also create a cute impression.
Also, wearing a delicate necklace with a very thin chain that is just barely visible can be a little sexy.
Pair with a suit
If you wear a necklace when wearing a suit, you shouldn't wear one that looks long. Long necklaces make you look like you're just playing around, and they just don't go with a suit. If someone sees you wearing a long necklace, especially when you're serving customers, they might think you're not trustworthy.
If you choose to wear one, a short necklace is a safe bet. A short necklace is often seen as neat and tidy, and acts as a kind of accent. This creates a formal impression, and makes you appear more elegant. For this reason, it is better to wear something short. You should also be careful about the pattern of the necklace. It is best to avoid necklaces that don't go well with a suit, such as pearls, and to choose a slim type that goes well with a suit.
It's important to dress appropriately for the occasion
Have you ever had the frustrating experience of being too focused on how your outfit matches your outfit and ending up looking inappropriate for the occasion?
For example, when going out to a buffet, avoid wearing long necklaces. If you wear a large teardrop-shaped charm made of natural stone, it will make it difficult to eat.
Just like with clothes, choosing accessories that suit the occasion is also a key to being stylish.
Names by length
Necklaces are named according to their length.
From shortest to longest: Choker (approximately 35-40cm)
・Princess (approximately 40-45cm)
・Matinee (approx. 50-55cm)
・Opera (approximately 70-80cm)
・Rope (approximately 107cm or longer)
is.
The shorter the length, the neater the collar will look, and the longer the length, the more luxurious the collar will look.
Chokers are long enough to fit naturally around the neck, and many types do not have a pendant top, so they seem to be recognized as a category of accessory rather than just a type of necklace.
There are a wide variety of designs, and they are easy to match even for those who are new to necklaces.
A chain of about 40cm in length will come down to just above the collarbone. Solitary pearl or diamond pendant charms generally use chains of this length.
On the other hand, opera and rope necklaces may not be suitable for everyone. Necklaces that are 50cm or longer tend to sway, so adding a large pendant top will make them look more glamorous.
