The best necklace for your neckline

Necklaces help create balance and proportion. Use your necklace(s) to fill up the space at the neckline in a way that works in sync with the shape of your clothing - the necklace is there to enhance rather than compete.
Think about length, layers, shape and balance. Also think about the overall style of your outfit - are you going for an edgy vibe, boho babe, formal work attire or effortlessly casual? It’s another tool to express your personality and have fun!
V-neck
Mimic the shape of the V with a pendant or make the most of the space with a chunky statement necklace. Think about symmetry when deciding the length of your necklace; space them evenly on your chest.
Scoop
There are so many options with this. To draw attention to your neckline, choose a collar necklace or choker. To elongate your torso, opt for a longer necklace. The simplicity of the scoop, and the space it creates, allows for creativity with your necklaces, so go ahead and mix and match different textures and materials. If you choose one necklace, aim for it to sit equidistant between the collarbone and the scoop of the clothing.
High
With turtlenecks and roll necks, look for necklaces that hang below the collarbone, to provide balance. Wearing a combination of long chains and pendants together will elongate your silhouette and create an eye-catching, bold look.
Crew
This simple style allows for various different necklace pairings. Mirror the shape of the neckline with a choker, or draw the eye downwards with a long pendant.
Square
Continue the angular look with a bold geometric necklace. Choker or collar lengths work well to balance the horizontal neckline.
Boat
Long necklaces work best with a boat neckline. Whether you choose a chunky statement or layer a few more delicate pieces, the key is to draw the eye down the torso and add interest.
Sweetheart
Accentuate this soft, open neckline with a pretty pendant. Don’t choose one that’s too large or chunky though; instead opt for soft, curved shapes on a delicate chain. Toolally’s Daisy Pendants are ideal to build a feminine look.
Strapless
Keep the look clean and simple with a choker or mid-length chain that sits just above the collarbone. A single gemstone pendant will add a touch of sparkle and shine to an elegant strapless outfit. The Diana Choker is a timeless choice.
Off-the-shoulder
Short and simple is key with this style. Choose a choker or short pendant that sits just above your collarbone. Use colour and dainty details to add interest; this will reflect your personality without competing with the striking off-the-shoulder statement.
One-shoulder
No necklace required! Let the glamorous neckline be the focus. Instead, add some statement earrings and bracelets.
