Layering Necklaces

Vary lengths: Create visual interest with different chain lengths.

Mix textures: Different chain styles prevent tangling and add dimension.

Include a focal point: One pendant or statement piece anchors the look.

Odd numbers: Three or five pieces usually look more balanced than even numbers.

Match metals or don't: Coordinated metals look polished. Mixed metals look intentional and trendy.

Anti-tangle tips: Different textures help. Necklace detanglers exist. Store hanging.
