Buying a Necklace for Yourself
Choosing the perfect necklace for yourself from a variety of brands tends to be easier since you know your preferences and what styles you like best. However, consider the following factors to help you select a necklace that suits your needs and desires:Size
Necklaces come in different sizes, typically in 2-in. increments between 16 and 22 in. If you don’t have a necklace that you like the length of already, you can measure your neck ahead of time to help simplify the selection process. As a general guide, you can take your neck measurement and add 2 in. to that to get a comfortable length for chokers. For pendant or charm necklaces, add 4 in. to your neck size. The most popular stock size for a necklace is 18” but most can be lengthened or shortened to fit your preference.
Face Shape
If you're looking for a necklace to complement your face shape, go for one that will create a proper balance. For example, round faces should avoid short necklaces or chokers since they will accentuate the roundness of the face. Instead, search for longer necklaces with pendants. Conversely, people with longer faces who want to broaden and soften the shape of their faces should go for chokers and shorter necklaces.
