Matching Jewellery to Your Neckline

Boat necks want studs, deep Vs want pendants — a short rule set that stops an outfit competing with itself.
The neckline decides the jewellery, not the other way round.
- Boat neck — studs or small hoops. A necklace fights the line.
- Deep V — a pendant that sits above the point.
- High neck — long chains or nothing at all; keep the interest in the earrings.
- Sweetheart — a choker follows the curve well.
- Saree blouse with a wide back — a back chain, and keep the front clear.
One statement piece per outfit. If the earrings are heavy, the neck stays bare.
