Bold Necklaces Work for Fall

It might be hard to believe that fall is already here, especially in parts of the country where the temperatures are still as hot as summer. So you might have a hard time getting in the mindset of sweaters, boots and coats. However, you can start to amp up your inner fall fashionista with accessories that will go the distance. Bold statement necklaces have made their mark on the style scene but if you’ve been holding off on this trend, now’s a great time to pick one of these necklaces up.

When you look at what’s coming down the runway and being shown splashed across the pages of major fashion magazines, there’s a lot of big bold necklaces. Some of these pieces might be a little over the top, but a lot of them can be translated to everyday wear. We love the use of bright color in deep hues like ruby red, cobalt blue and royal purple. Statement necklaces using these tones are great for adding a little life to darker colored fabrics in browns, grays and blacks. Look for necklaces with bubble gum size beads and stones. Set in yellow gold, these make a winning combination for fall.

Besides colored necklaces, those that are pure metal are just as favorable. These pieces are versatile enough to go from day to night and will pair well with many selections from your wardrobe. Look for thick settings in yellow gold, rose gold or silver. You don’t have to get the real thing; necklaces that are silver or gold tone look the part and cost a lot less. For more variation, try necklaces that utilize brushed metal, a muted finish or special details like engraving. These small touches can add interest and personality to what might otherwise be a boring outfit.
