This is the ultimate how-to necklace layer guide! We know it can be overwhelming so we’ve broken it down for you to make is simple.

Be sure to check out our large range of gold plated pendant necklaces to kick start your necklace styling.

While you can layer with just 2 necklaces atleast 3 is recommended.

This allows you to play with colour, texture, length. Make sure your necklaces are different lengths – this way you can ensure everyone can see all your beautiful jewellery.

We recommend a choker (16″), mid length chains (18 or 20″) and longer chain (22″ or 24″).

Monotone or Colourful – Which is best?

You can keep the look monotone and stick to one metal to allow a cleaner, minimalist look. Or try adding a pop of colour with a coloured pendant necklace or mix up your metals and rock silver and gold necklace chains.

Combine different chain width/weights.

We recommend if you go with a chunky gold chain to wear this as your choker and then lighten the chains as you go down to draw the eye up.

Try different necklace chains & textures as this gives your necklace layering more depth and interest. We believe a variety of necklace designs is best necklaces for layering.

Where to layer a bold pendant!

If you want to wear a bold pendant necklace we advise to wear this as the longest chain as the weight of the pendant will make the chain sit lower.

Top tip: Be careful when putting on your chains to not get them tangled! Chains of different widths will help to avoid tangling.
