Which pendant should I get?
Choose your pendants according to your fancy. For a singular style, it is good to wear pendants that reflect your passions and personality. After all, what you desire is what you should wear! Nevertheless, the following points may help in picking the right pendant necklace for you.
• Firstly, ensure that the chain used does not overpower your pendant. At the same time, it is important that the chain is strong enough to carry the pendant safely. Use delicate chains for small pendants and for comfortable continuous wear.
• Long pendant necklaces pair well with high necklines and turtlenecks. Wide necklines look fine with a short pendant necklace hugging the base of the neck. Plunging necklines call for pendants that lay against the bare skin on medium-length chains. Layering pendant necklaces creates a unique effect as well.
• Additional accessories
When flaunting your favourite pendant, make sure that the other pieces of jewellery used do not clash with or draw away attention from the former. A large pendant looks best when paired with small earrings and dainty bracelets.
