Ever wondered what necklace to wear with an outfit? It all depends on the cut but then the rules can also change depending on the style of the jewellery. This week I will talk you through varying necklines and the perfect jewellery length and style of jewellery to wear with them. The right necklace can enhance the overall appearance of an outfit.
Turtleneck
Boat Neck
These work well with long necklaces. You can use long layered necklaces too that are beaded or chunky. A necklace like this 2 row silver and rose metal necklace with crystal studded balls.
This 2 line silver necklace would also flatter a top with this style neckline.
Scoop
This could be combined with long chain and also rounded necklaces.
Off the shoulder
Strapless
The above 3 necklines look great with a range of styles. A thin chained necklace with a pendant that doesn’t reach the neckline would be well suited for each and the bottom 2 would look lovely with this thick, short chunky piece that is nice and shiny.
Rounded necklaces also work well with these necklines like this cute sparkly silver tone necklace with crystals.
V Neck
Halter Neck
These necklines look super with a medium necklace and pendant. They can also look great with a pendant that is narrow with a sharper end or that matches the shape of the V. Not all halter neck tops have a V shape so look at the style and use the shapes and examples given above as a guide.
Some halter neck tops have a hole at the bust or spacing in the fabric. If you wear one of these don’t wear a necklace instead style with some lovely sparkle earrings and a bracelet.

I love turtlenecks and I’m loving the crystal ball necklaces!
They are great and perfect for that kind of necklace.
I simply don’t wear necklaces because I don’t know which would go better with the outfit. I can’t tell you the last time I wore one LOL. This post is very helpful.
Thanks for sharing

Always struggle to pick necklaces to go with my outfits
This is great
Thanks
Glad you found the post useful. Thanks so much for your comment.
You are right in saying that different necklines match different necklaces. For example chokers work really well with off the shoulders and strapless whereas pendants or statement necklaces look great with both scoop and turtleneck x
I am very picky about my neckline since I dont like anything tight around my neck. I always choose a v neck or a scoop. Good to know what is flattering. 🙂
Good to know. Glad I came across this post as I just bought a lot of necklaces for gifting purposes. A lot of my friends birthdays are coming up. So know the style of clothes they wear I can gift them appropriate ones.
I never thought about necklaces and how they work with differnt necklines. But now that you get me to think about it I can see how important it is. Great insights here.
I’ve always wondered what the best necklaces would be for my outfits. I wear scoops a lot and am glad my thin necklace with the pendant my husband gave me is the right choice!
Ooh this is so helpful! I am useless with knowing what jewellery to wear with each outfit, I will take this advice on board!
