Collar Necklace

by cheapchica11 on December 3, 2008

picture-31Layering has been a huge trend in jewelry for the last few seasons, but now designers are making it even easier to achieve that layered effect!  The collar necklace is like a necklace on steroids and it’s a super easy way to take any basic, like a tank top or a tee, and make it really sophisticated!

These necklaces are definitely a statement piece so keep the rest of your jewelry to a minimum and let this be the sole focus.  I also think these look best against bright solids, like this tank from Old Navy, to help pop the color and intricacy of the bead work.

For the upcoming Holiday season, these necklace are a great way to recycle a simple dress you might already have in your closet and make it new again!  Just remember that the line of the necklace should match the line of your dress/top for a seamless look.

There’s a lot of options out there for different sizes, stones and colors, but here are some of my favorites all under $80:

Rhinestone Bib Necklace $39

Black Glass Bead Necklace $49

Rhinestone and Gem Necklace $50

Circle Bib Necklace $79.95
