Necklaces That Make A BOLD Statement

Big, long, fringy, feathery, and beaded necklaces are making bold statements in the fashion world.


This Urban Renewal Chain necklace from Urban Outfitters is made from vintage fabric and chains. Notice how it brings out what would be considered an otherwise plain sheer black top.


This Jersey Tassel necklace, also from Urban Outfitters can add character to something as simple as a plain white tee.


This feather and chain necklace from Urban Outfitters adds flair to a basic tank top.


This multi-beaded bib necklace can be used to dress up a plain tee or add a sense of elegance to an evening dress. I love the intricate beading and detailing of this piece.


And last but not least, my favorite "It Girl" Rihanna (*warning: you will be seeing a lot of her in my posts as she spells out fashion in my opinion) rocking this dramatic spiked necklace by Burberry on the red carpet. Look at how it adds a ton of spunk to basic black jumpsuit. Loves it!



And here she is on the red carpet again at the London premiere of Inglourious Basterds using several long strands of white and off-white pearls to dress up all-black attire. The pearls definitely give off an elegant look. Simply gorgeous!

And I recently added a few necklaces to my collection. I don't own a lot of necklaces, but I plan to start building up a collection real soon:



I absolutely LOVE this flower layered chain necklace. I knew I HAD to have it the moment I saw it.



I also like this silver filigree bib necklace I recently purchased.




This bead cluster necklace is another one of my new faves.

All 3 of these necklaces can be found at Charlotte Russe
