The Art of Layering Jewelry

Layering Jewelry
Let your pearl set drop and drape down your back!

Layering is a popular asset when it comes to personal style. Layering jewelry is a great way to make your own unique fashion statement to any outfit! So here are a few ways to inspire and cultivate your current jewelry wardrobe.

Madame Coco Chanel did it best with her pearl layering technique. It was simple and chic and inspired women to think outside the box when it comes to accessories. Chanel created this eclectic look and to this day it still wears strong. So if you are looking for something quick and easy, layered pearls should be the first to come to mind but these days pearls come in a variety of lengths and even colors thus adding some modernity to the look!

Be subtle or Be bold with this look!

Chain layering is where you can get really creative. You can add varying link sizes and lengths, pops of color with plastic chain links, a locket, a semi-precious stone, or a novelty style necklace. So if you are a trend setter this is a perfect way to style your jewelry.

Add texture with fabric such as leather cuffs,
glamorous rhinestones, wood beads or statement cuffs!

Bracelets pair great with so much including a nice watch- so your always chic and on time! Layer your bracelets DIY style by creating your own beaded look-just go to any arts and craft store, like Micheals, and create your own eclectic design. You can mix cuffs, bangles, and chains  but we do recommend layering only about  5 to 6 inches up your forearm so you will stay dramatic but not over the top. For an even more fashionable statement turn a small scarf into a bracelet-wrap it or tie it, just mix it in for a pop of color! These looks will dress up any casual outfit too!
