 1. All About The Details

The first tip to building that beautiful stack is: pay attention to the details! How long are your necklaces? What do the chains look like? Are they dainty chains, chunky chains, or somewhere in between? Are there pendants, charms, or beads?

Lots of questions but all important when it comes to layering. Seeing all these details will help you choose the best pieces for your look!

If you’re looking for something more minimal, you’ll probably only want 2 or 3 layers of dainty pieces. Look for thin chains with no or only little pendants that are different lengths. This keeps the look simple and clean! If this sounds a little plain, try finding chains that look very different from each other, say a snake chain and rope chain, to make things little more interesting.

If you’re looking to make a statement with your necklaces, make them big and bold. Find pieces with chunky chains, large pendants, a lot of charms, or even completely beaded! Now, you don’t necessarily need a lot of layers; sometimes even just two pieces can totally do the trick. If you want to take up another notch, mix gold and silver for a stack that’s sure to catch eyes.

All the Layers

This is for those who aren’t into chunky pieces, but want to make just as much of a statement! With this look, it’s about adding sparkle through volume. You'd want at least four layers but really, the more the merrier. Try to keep some pieces different lengths but it’s ok if a few fall on top of each other. Layers that double up to help create that chunky effect without being chunky pieces.

3. Layers, Assemble!

When layering, it can be important to think about how you want to stack your pieces. Do any chains overlap? Will anything be covered like little charms or a pendant? You want to make sure the pieces you’d really like to showcase are on top so they don’t get covered by other necklaces. It’s also good to have the longest necklace on the bottom. This helps frame everything above it! Keep in mind your pieces might get a little mixed up during the day but that’s ok. Take a quick peek in the mirror to straighten everything out or just roll with the new look!
