Discover the different types of necklaces and pendants to choose from

Necklaces and pendants are a part of daily and occasional wear. They can easily enhance your personal style. These pieces of jewellery can also be the perfect gift for your loved ones. While some women prefer wearing necklaces or elaborate neckpieces, others like to keep it simple and settle for a beautiful simple pendant. 

Necklaces are available in diverse forms, shapes, and lengths. White gold necklaces are a classic style and never go out of fashion. Platinum and sterling silver necklaces have also become popular over the years. Necklaces with gemstones and diamonds are elegant and classy. One can also choose pearl necklaces available in different lengths, colours and styles from simple to elaborate. When looking to buy necklaces, you also need to determine the length you are comfortable wearing them.

Necklaces

Types of Necklaces Depends on Their Length

16-inch Necklace

This length is also known as Choker length. These remain just above the collarbone and highlight the neckline of the person wearing it. These kinds of necklaces are good to go with shirts and tops that have high necklines.

17-19 inch Necklace

Also known as the Princess length. It is possibly the most widely worn necklace and is commonly around 18 inches long and suspends over the neckline. 

24 inch Necklace

It is also known as Opera length. Necklaces of this length generally work well with dresses or blouses. Though the length of the neckpiece can be anywhere between 20 inches and 30 inches, the 24 inch pieces are most commonly available. 

Pendants

A pendant can also be known as a necklace pendant, and in this case, the entire focus is on the gemstone, pearl, or diamond that remains suspended from a long chain. But one cannot forget the all-time favourite gold pendants that never go out of fashion. 

Gold Pendants

What’s behind the popularity of Gold Pendants?

Gold pendants can be worn anywhere and at any time. A minimal gold pendant can be a good option for any occasion, formal or informal. These jewellery pieces are also easily paired with other necklaces. The glimmer of gold is hard to miss and takes the appearance of your attire and style element a notch higher. Be it vintage, contemporary, or modern, gold pendants go well with all kinds of necklaces and chains. 

Solitaire Pendants

In a solitaire pendant-style neckpiece, a precious gemstone is held by an expensive metal chain. There are a whole lot of designs to choose from. One can choose either natural diamonds or lab diamonds. Solitaires are available in different gemstone shapes like princess, round, oval, and cushion. Other gemstones can also be worn as pendants, and some of them add beautiful sparkle and colour to your look. 

So, what are you waiting for? Go ahead and buy a necklace of your preference and pair it up with a beautiful and classy pendant to complete your look.
