A basic look can be transformed with the right accessories. You can accent an outfit with a statement necklace. When adorning a bold necklace, it is important to keep the rest of your look simple.

Layer it:

Where you don’t have a chunky statement necklace, you can create you own by working with what you’ve got. You can layer tiny necklaces to form a pile enough to make that statement.

Wear with a collared shirt

If you have to wear with a collard shirt, button your blouse all the way up then wear your necklace under the collar like Yemi Alade has done here. That way, the necklace just peeks out from underneath your collar.

Show some skin

Not everyone likes to go strapless but you can at least show some skin.
