How to Layer Jewelry Like A Fashionista
You’ve seen all the celebrities and fashion influencers showing off their layered looks and you are now ready to style a layered look of your own. You might be wondering, “How do I select jewelry pieces to layer? Where do I begin when it comes to layering jewelry?”
In this post, we are sharing our tips on how to layer your jewelry like a fashionista.
Whether it be necklaces, bracelets, or an ear stack, layering is a great way to add a customized element to your overall look.
Traditional vs. Non-Traditional Layering
Traditional layering often focuses on evenly spaced necklaces, whereas, non-traditional lets the layers fall where they may.
So now let’s get into the various ways you can layer and stack your jewelry.
Mix Chunky with Dainty Pieces
Mixing dainty and chunky pieces is one of our favorite ways to layer necklaces and stack bracelets. It breaks things up nicely to highlight each piece.
