How to Choose the Right Necklace?

2026-03-02

Jewelry and accessories are the most important elements that complete our outfits. Therefore, for those who care about a stylish appearance, choosing jewelry and accessories is just as important as choosing clothing. In this article, we will examine necklaces, which are among the most frequently used accessories. When choosing the right necklace, attention should be paid to face shape, neck measurement, and neck structure.

 

Choosing Jewelry According to Neck Measurement:

First of all, measuring your neck is quite easy. You can easily take your neck measurement by wrapping a measuring tape around your neck.
For an average necklace, you can choose one that is 10 cm longer than your neck measurement. For shorter neck accessories such as chokers, you can prefer ones that are 5 cm longer than your neck measurement.

 

Choosing a Necklace According to Neck Structure:

Short-style chokers suit those with slim necks very well and are often recommended to emphasize the neck.

For those with long and slim necks, a necklace with a chain approximately 40 cm in length suits best, as this style draws attention to the swan-like neck.

For those with short or wide necks, necklaces that are approximately 50 cm longer than the neck measurement, which make the neck appear longer and more elegant, are more suitable.

 

Choosing Jewelry According to Face Shape:

If you have a round face, avoid short necklaces and instead choose longer ones to make your face appear longer and achieve a more elegant look. If you have a long face, a short chain around 40 cm in length will make your face appear more rounded and create a stylish look. If you have an oval face shape, generally any necklace length may suit you.
