Getting More Use Out of Pendants

You found the perfect pendant. It incorporates your favorite colors, is neither too large nor too small, and really lets your personal sense of style shine. Best of all, you just know you are going to wear it all the time, but then you don’t.

You may put it on often, intending to wear it with many different outfits, but then it’s back to the jewelry box for your favorite pendant before you even leave the room. It just doesn’t look right.

Rather than the actual pendant not working with your outfits, it may be necklace it is on. Different shirts have different necklines, and different necklines call for different necklace lengths. For example, a scoop neck may look best with a 16” or 18” chain while a turtleneck may require a 20” chain or longer.

To get more mileage out of your favorite pendant, consider picking up sterling silver chains in varying lengths. Now that your pendant can be worn with multiple outfits in your wardrobe, your pendant may just spend more time on your neck than in your jewelry box!
