You know when you go to the museum and go to the part where they show the earliest evidence of human life…What do you find?

You find some basic pots and pans…AND…jewellery.

Yes, while the men entertain themselves with cooking, we women concentrate on the more important aspects of life, beautification.

I suggest we go back to basics. The basics which are chunky necklaces, or as they are so very loosely termed:

The Statement Necklace

.

.

My personal rules for them
1. Always wear with a colour block top/dress. Sometimes too much is just too much.
2. Choose quirky necklaces made from unconventional materials and components. Have some fun!
3. Try combining more than one necklace.( I’ve seen it done so many times and it works so well.)
4. Wearing it under a collar is so chic
5. 3D is better than 2D
