These necklaces come in a variety of stunning designs that rest below the neckline for an elongating effect.

 Whether you like the look of shimmering chains, clustered beads, or statement pendants, Paparazzi Accessories has long necklaces that match your unique style! If you’re not sure where to start when it comes to wearing long necklaces, we’ve put together some styling tips to help you look and feel your best!

PAIRING LONG NECKLACES WITH YOUR STYLE

If you’ve found a long necklace that you love, it’s time to figure out how to match the necklace to your wardrobe to build a cohesive, creative, or carefree-chic look! Whether your style is more Western, romantic, professional, or eclectic, long necklaces are the perfect finishing touch! 

Necklines

Consider how the necklines of your clothing will frame the long chains or beaded strands of your new favorite necklaces. V-neck or scoop-neck tops add extra depth, dimension, and contrast to lengthy necklaces for a standout ensemble. Mock-neck blouses and crew-neck sweaters provide an even backdrop where elongated necklaces stand out with a showcasing effect.

Colors

If you love neutral, coordinated looks, reach for a simple pendant necklace with earthy tones that match your favorite shades of white, black, and brown. 

For fashionistas who embrace colorful combinations, try matching the beads or stones in your long necklace with one or more elements of your outfit. Pairing a colorful long-line necklace with complementary shades is another unique way to highlight your favorite hues.

Prints and Patterns

For a fierce fashion statement, pair your long accessories with bold prints and patterns—think animal prints, lace details, or floral motifs. Layering loud necklaces over bold wardrobe pieces amps up the drama of your look, leaving a lasting impression on everyone you pass by.  

If you prefer a more subtle splash of style, incorporate prints and patterns into your pants, shoes, or handbags—this allows your long necklace to shine without competing for attention on your neckline.
