Every necklace has its own charm and beauty that adds to the elegance or style of the wearer. With a wide assortment of designer modern and contemporary necklaces , you can choose what suits your personal tastes. To ensure you have something for every occasion here are 5 necklaces that are a must-have in your jewellery collection.

Choker Necklace

Making a comeback from the 90's, Choker Necklace is the style of the season. We saw Olivia Wilde sizzling on the red carpet wearing Neil Lane choker and pearl earrings. Usually 14 to 16 inches long, a choker matches perfectly with a formal white shirt or a beautiful strapless gown. They are ideal for an elegant look that stands out.

Bib Necklaces

Bib necklaces are bold and busy. They are designed with dazzling beads with layers of bling that prep up any boring outfit instantly! Ideal for enhancing a simple neckline they drape down in a cascading effect while complimenting your entire look. You match an interesting bib necklace with a flowing strapless dress or a dress with a deep neckline with simple studs. Avoid large chunky or statement earrings of any kind while pairing this neckpiece. A Bib Necklace with a simple white crisp shirt and blue jeans with stylish wedges make a killer summer look too!

Pendant Necklaces are a timeless beauty which makes them a must-have for your jewellery collection. Simple Petite designs to bold statement ones, they give your attire a cool and classy edge.

Multi Layered Chain Necklace

Multi Layered Chain Necklaces add a cool and funky look to your outfit. They are chunky necklaces with layers of chains that give a glamorous effect to your attire. Multi chain necklaces come in various forms such as mixed metals, simple chains or multiple pendants. Whatever the design, they are always successful in making a strong statement when paired with a plain outfit.

Pairing the right necklaces with the proper outfit are a wonderful way to bring the 'oomph factor' into a simple look. What is important is making the right choice while doing so. Always remember bold chunky neckpieces look best when you keep other accessories minimalistic. So, go ahead and add the above-mentioned designs to your collection if you don't have it already.
