A long gold necklace adds a touch of glamour to your look. Choose intricate chains, chunky links, or pendant designs featuring precious stones like diamonds, emeralds, or sapphires. Or opt for a minimalist approach by adding a single delicate gold necklace to your look.

Select silver for a contemporary and sophisticated feel that complements your skin tone. Explore long, layered necklaces with solitaire pendants, rope chains with geometric shapes, or an adjustable box chain with clean lines. 

how to wear long necklaces

Ultimately, the best length for you depends on your personal style and body type. Experiment with different lengths to find what flatters you most. Want to incorporate a long statement necklace or chain into your style rotation? Here are a few ways to wear them: 

• Pair a long necklace with a V-neck sweater or crew neck blouse. The length visually elongates both your neck and torso. 
• Layers strands of necklaces in varying lengths and with various textures for a trendy, modern look. 
• Let your outfit help you find some balance. If you’re wearing a simple, solid-colored look to the office, choose a long-length necklace with a pendant or gemstones to embellish it. Pair more delicate necklaces or simple chains with everything from a graphic tee to a floral dress. 
• Experiment with necklace finishes, lengths, and styles to find looks you love for all occasions. 

how long should a long necklace be?

While choker necklaces range from 14 to 16 inches, long necklaces come in a variety of lengths, and each length creates a distinct silhouette. Here’s a quick guide on necklace lengths: 

• Matinee-length necklaces are 20 to 24 inches and fall just below the collarbone. They’re perfect for highlighting necklines. 
• Opera-length long necklaces are 28 to 36 inches long and hit around the bust line, making them great layering lengths. 
• A lariat or rope length reaches 38 to 42 inches, right around the midriff or navel area, creating a statement-making drape. Some of these long necklaces feature tassels or knots to add extra visual interest.
