Large neck decoration. Jewelry for the neck. Long thin neck

A well-chosen piece of jewelry can make your look complete, unique and memorable. How to choose jewelry that will be in harmony with your physical characteristics and clothing?

Short wide neck

The main task is to visually lengthen the neck. Long beads, pendants on a chain, necklaces that would be located 5 cm or more below the collarbone, and V-shaped jewelry will help you with this. One of the successful options would be a decoration with small links at the base of the neck and larger ones closer to the bottom. Try to avoid elements that are too large or round, short decorations, or stand-up decorations. They grow larger and shorten the neck. Small details are preferable.

Long thin neck

Here it's the other way around. Short beads, collars, chokers, stand-up jewelry, necklaces close to the neck. Beads or chains in several rows look great, the first row of which is very close to the neck. It is not recommended to wear long beads, pendants on a chain, or V-shaped jewelry if you have a very long neck. Such decorations will only enhance the effect.

General Constitution

It is best to choose jewelry in proportion to the size of the bone and your height.

Small jewelry suits petite women more. Statement necklaces are acceptable, but make sure they don't make you look like you're in chains or give the impression that you're bending under their weight.

Small pendants and other small jewelry can go unnoticed on a tall woman and increase the feeling of bulk on larger women.

Bust size

Large breasts- large elegant jewelry above the chest line will look great. The necklace should have flat parts so as not to add unnecessary volume. Beads, on the contrary, can be voluminous and located either above the chest or below, for example, beads to the waist. Very short jewelry and small pendants are not your option.

Small breasts- jewelry with a lot of bright details will distract attention and will not emphasize the size of the bust. Small pendants will look very delicate.

Decoration length

30-34 cm, Collar- a collar, collar, decoration that tightly clasps the neck or consists of several threads, where the top one is adjacent to the neck.

40 cm, Choker, located near the neck, but does not tighten it. Looks great with all types of necklines.

43-48 cm, Princess, is located on the collarbone and is ideal for necklaces and pendants.

51-61 cm, Matine. Those that are located below the collarbones (51 cm) are ideal for medallions and pendants; the longer ones already reach the chest. Matine is a beautiful length of beads and chains. The length of the decoration and the neckline should not be the same.

71-86 cm, Opera, jewelry located below the chest but above the waist. They can be wrapped around the neck to create a shorter layered necklace. Helps lengthen your figure.

114 cm +, Rope, Lariat, this decoration can be worn either full length or wrapped around the neck, symmetrically or not.

Height

For complete harmony of proportions, it is advisable to choose the length of the decoration according to your height.

< 165 см - jewelry up to 50cm long is more suitable. To elongate your figure, pair a necklace with a v-neck.
165-173 cm- can choose any length of decoration.
173 + cm- It is better to avoid wearing too short necklaces.

Age

For children It is better to wear shorter jewelry and with strong weaving, because... they may fiddle with them or tear them during play.

For girls Thin, short chains are more suitable, emphasizing the beauty of young skin.

Older women long, elegant jewelry or choker necklaces (if you have a slender neck), which help hide age-related changes.

Pendant + Chain

The pendant should not be heavier than the chain, otherwise it will break over time. The best weight ratio is 1:1. The pendant can be a maximum of two times lighter than the chain, but make sure that it looks harmonious in terms of size.
The longer the chain, the larger the pendant is appropriate due to its location on the body.

40-45 cm ideal for small pendants
50-55 cm- for medium-large pendants
60 + cm- for large pendants and crosses.

Style

I prefer not to wear ready-made sets and choose jewelry to pair myself. Whatever you choose, don't go overboard with the amount of decoration. You should not wear 3 or more elements of one set together. Do not place active products nearby. If you have active earrings, wear them with a bracelet or ring; if you have an elegant bracelet, do not wear a ring with it, earrings or a necklace are better. Small, unobtrusive decorations can be placed in any pair.

You can wear several necklaces together, but then make sure that they are made of the same metal, the decor is the same color, or different colors harmoniously combine with the outfit. You can read all about how to combine accent jewelry with clothes

Differences by type

Necklace (French collier, from the Latin collare - “neck chain, collar”) is a type of neck jewelry with a pronounced central part or decorative element, most often with an adjustable clasp. Usually, by the name “necklace” I mean products made of precious metals.

Plastron necklace (French plastron - “bib”) is the name of a massive neck decoration covering part of the décolleté area.

Riviera necklaces (French riviere - “river”) consist of “homogeneous” stones, connected in such a way that the attachment points are not visible. The French name very accurately conveys the idea of ​​​​decoration: sparkling precious stones form a single “river stream” and sparkle like sunlight on water. This necklace is considered an especially evening option.

Beads are a decoration made up of rounded decorative elements (beads) strung on a thread.

The necklace differs from the necklace by having the same or similar sized inserts - the central part does not stand out.

Monisto (according to different versions - from the Proto-Indo-European moni - “neck” and / or Latin monile - “necklace”) is the name of an oriental-style necklace, decorated with chains, coins or rounded metal plates.

A pendant (on a chain) is a piece of jewelry suspended from a cord, chain, or ribbon. In such a decoration, all decorative objects that have a hole or loop can be suspended. There are both simple pendant-decorations and themed pendants-talismans - with precious stones matching the horoscope or symbols of the zodiac sign. There are also pendants “with a secret” - with drop-down parts in the design, inside of which some decorative element is “hidden”.

The pendant, unlike the pendant, is attached only to the neck. The pendant can be attached - at the request of the owner - to earrings, bracelets, brooches, bags and hats.

A medallion is a pendant in the form of a small case, inside of which there may be some kind of attachment - for example, a miniature photograph. There are also aroma medallions - small containers for fragrant essential oils, attached to a cord. They are worn for both decorative and practical purposes: many oils have healing properties.

Cameo is a decoration with convex artistic carvings. Precious or semi-precious stones, as well as sea shells, can be used for bas-relief.

Length Differences

A collar (“collar”) is a tightly encircling neck decoration with a length of 30 cm to 32 cm. It is usually located exactly in the middle of the neck.

The choker popular today is slightly longer - from 35 to 40 cm; it is worn closer to the base of the neck.

The “Princess” necklace is the name of a classic necklace with a length of 42 to 48 cm. It is located on the collarbones and does not go below the upper part of the neckline.

The Matinet necklace, which measures from 50 to 60 cm in length, is often wrapped around the neck in such a way that one of its “semicircles” is located higher than the other. In most cases, “matine” is called a string of pearls.

The Opera necklace, up to 85 cm long, is located well below the chest, but does not reach the waist, and is made of pearl beads or a chain with decorative inserts.

“Sautoir”, or “Rope” is the name of the longest neck decoration: its length can exceed the canonical 112 cm for this product, sometimes reaching a record 1.8 m. This decoration, strictly marked “for the evening”, is sometimes assembled: different the parts are attached to each other with miniature invisible locks, and at the owner’s request they can be detached and become... short necklaces and even bracelets! Classic versions of the sautoir or “opera” can be seen in photographs of the legendary Coco Chanel - the brand named after her still produces these elegant jewelry.

Choosing jewelry for a woman is the most difficult, because a necklace on the neck can either create a beautiful image or ruin it. It all depends on the right choice.

What types of neck jewelry exist and how to choose them correctly?

The main criterion for selection is the neck. If your hair is short, then the main goal is visual lengthening. Long necklaces made of large beads, chains, and chokers that are placed below the collarbone but above the chest are ideal for this. V-shaped jewelry also looks great.

For a long neck, on the contrary, adjacent short beads or chokers are suitable.

General appearance

If you are short, small, non-distinguishing products are perfect. For example, a pendant above the chest, or a thin chain.

But on tall women, small jewelry is not noticeable, so you should use more massive necklaces, large pendants or chains with thick weaving.

Breast

If you have a large bust, you should only use short beads and necklaces that are located above the chest. Too small pendants or short necklaces will draw unnecessary attention to the chest, visually enlarging it further.

For small breasts, massive bright pendants are suitable, which will attract attention and take the eye away from the bust.

Dense short weaves are ideal for children, and long thin chains with a pendant are ideal for teenagers. They will emphasize the youth and beauty of the skin.

For older ladies, it is better to wear long beads; they will make you look elegant and hide the imperfections of age.

As for the pendant, it is important to select the size according to the length of the chain. The longer it is, the more massive the pendant should be.

Combination

It is equally important to combine them and not place bright elements next to each other. For example, if you have massive earrings, a bracelet will go well with them, but it’s better to remove the necklace. If you wear a bright necklace, it will be great to wear it with a ring, but with a massive bracelet, it will look out of place.

You can use several decorations at the same time, but you need to make sure that they look harmonious. Gold, silver and bright jewelry, of course, do not go together. It is best to combine jewelry of the same color scheme.

Budget jewelry

Unfortunately, the price of necklaces and necklaces is very high and this is not surprising, because look at the photos of necklaces, most of them are made by hand. Can a simple girl with no skills do something unusual?

There are many diagrams and instructions on how to make jewelry correctly. Accordingly, it is easy and at home. As we know, neck products are made from a wide variety of materials.

In classic versions it is gold, silver, copper alloy. In costume jewelry, this can be fabric, beads, beads, threads, chains and others. For example, textiles or leather are often used for chokers. For pendants, wire, chain, threads, beads and beads.

What can you make your own jewelry from? From any available means.

Let's consider the scheme for creating a choker. It would seem that you cut off a piece of lace fabric and you’re done, but this is the simplest and least attractive option.

Let's make it out of headphones. Weaving pattern - knots. We fix the two wires at the base to any hard surface (it’s most convenient to work with a tablet folder). And we tie knots on each side one by one, thus weaving the length you need, at the end we burn the wires (to secure them) and attach a carabiner or thread.

More recently, weaving with rubber bands has come into fashion. They are often used to make bracelets, but chokers are also not uncommon. There are various schemes, none of them are complicated. And the simplest ones include “fishtail” and “hearts”. Both romantic and beautiful. It is very important to make the length exactly according to the girth of the neck. If it is shorter, the elastic bands will be overtightened.

How to make a necklace

YouTube is full of various master classes on neck jewelry. They all differ from each other, but the effect is the same - beauty.

Let's consider what kind of decoration you can make with your own hands. Step-by-step instructions for creating a colorful necklace. If you have gel polishes and a lamp at home, then you are lucky. If not, you can use a hot gun.

You will need:

• The film is thick (you can use baking paper);
• Glue gun;
• Nail polish;
• Wire (you can use fishing line or thin thread).

First, let's make beads for our necklace. Apply glue to the film. The shape of the bead should be in the form of a droplet. Make the required number of droplets.

We make a through hole in the beads in the upper part and string them on a wire, secure them with a carabiner and our necklace is ready.

If you have a lamp for drying gel polish, the effect will be much better and the work will go faster. Apply a transparent base to the film in the form of the same drop. We use a kind of lamp and remove it from the film. We cover the gel polish and again with ours. We do this with all the beads. Further according to the standard scheme.

Let's sum it up

Properly selected neck jewelry adorns any girl. They can be simple and elegant. To be beautiful, you don’t have to spend millions; desire and imagination are enough.
