Statement Necklaces

American Eagle Colourful Bead Bib Necklace

American Eagle Plum Statement Necklace

I love, love, love statement necklaces (I bought the two above yesterday at AE - all their jewelry is on buy one get one 50% off right now - how great is that!?) 

Stores are full of statement necklaces at the moment, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding one that suites you and your taste. Whether worn with a basic tee and jeans or a little black dress and the perfect pair of heels, statement necklaces are the perfect way to jazz up any outfit - for day or night! 

Since costume jewelry is very in at the moment, many designers are spinning the trend in various ways by adding turquoise stones, multi-color gemstones and swinging fringe. The trick is not going overboard; keep your necklace the focus of the outfit - otherwise, you'll have way too much going on. And despite the looming fall weather, a strong statement necklace will carry over into both the fall and winter season as long as you keep the rest of your wardrobe classic and chic.
