How To Wear A Gold Chain Necklace So It Looks Amazing Every Time

Gold chain necklaces are a staple in everyone’s jewellery box.

But as with all classics, there comes a time when you run out of styling ideas. So consider this your quick guide to making your favourite gold chain necklace look fresh again.

Easy to layer, eye-catching and mega chic, you’ll find that it doesn’t need much to stand out, apart from a keen eye for detail. Let’s jump right in!

Let It Shine All By Itself

The first option is to wear it all by itself.

While this one is a no-brainer, it’s also the one that puts all the attention on the design of the necklace.

So make sure you choose a piece with some visual impact, like a pop of colour or an intricate pendant.

For extra styling points, wear your gold chain necklace with a contrasting neckline:

Three’s A Party!

Going all out in the necklace department? Opt for a set of gold pieces similar in shape and size and wear them all at once.

The key here is to make sure each necklace is of a slightly different length, so that, when you put them on, each one is visible.

This type of necklace styling looks best with V-necks and low cut tops in general, as it helps fill them visually. But of course, you can also wear them with a bathing suit when lounging poolside. Just remember to properly care for your jewellery, as we’ve shown you here.

If you want to up your styling game, feel free to add another necklace to the mix, but don’t go overboard: the simpler, the better.

Finally, you can add more flair to your look with an attention-grabbing pendant. Pick one you absolutely love and make it your signature piece: the more you’ll wear it, the easier to style it’ll become. Good luck and happy shopping!
