How to Style Jewelry With Bulky Winter Clothes
Wearing jewelry in the winter requires some outfit planning, and our goal is to help make choosing your jewelry options much easier. It’s about selecting the right jewelry for the right sweater, or coat, or scarf.
In this post, we’re guiding you through how to pair those winter clothing staples with your favorite freshwater pearls starting with the turtleneck.
How do I accessorize a turtleneck?
Turtlenecks have long been associated with being timeless and classic. It should come as no surprise they pair perfectly with equally classic pearls. When it comes to freshwater pearl necklaces, the trick is to pick the right chain length.
A common mistake we see is pairing a turtleneck with a short necklace that sits too high above the collarbone. Instead we recommend looking into the 19-24” length range, or something with layers to fill in the empty space between the collar and bottom of the necklace.
For styling earrings with a turtleneck, we recommend a dangle to add a neck-lengthening effect.

What jewelry can I wear with a scarf?
When you’re wrapped up in your stylish scarf there are two rules to be mindful of. Avoid getting your earrings caught on your scarf by opting for studs and a long necklace that can be seen beneath the scarf.
