Fall Accessories Report ‘08: Statement Necklaces
Bigger is definitely better, this year, when it comes to your neck jewelry. New shapes, gorgeous colors, and complicated hardware have been pulled together to create this fall’s powerhouse pieces.
*Tip:: Rock your statement necklace with a simple top, or dress. That’s the point of ’statement jewelry’ — to make a statement. A sheath [dress] would look great with one of these! See below pics of Blake Lively, Fergie, and Sarah Jessica Parker sporting the complete trend…

idk about this trend.
can you wear casual everyday colors with it? (polos, button ups, tees)

Lex - i love it too!
Jas - it’s possible! a plain tee can go great with shorter versions, like #2 in the last group; and 2 and 4 in the 3rd group. a button-up would be real stylish with a longer version, like Blake Lively’s, but only if you left a few buttons unbuttoned - no bra! I’ve seen Beyonce pull it off. LOL.
** Styles like the ones in the 1st group are very luxe, so they’d go best with a dressier outfit. You could definitely pull some of them off with just a plain tee, skinnies, and high-heel pumps! That’s cute too!
