How to Stack Necklaces
The art of layering necklaces is all about finding necklaces with lengths that complement each other. You want to build out different styles of necklaces with varying lengths so none overlap. Typical necklace stacks start with a necklace close to the neck, such as a collar, and then have longer necklaces that cascade down on the décolletage. We outline the lengths for all of our necklaces in the product measurements.

How do You Layer Necklaces Without Having Them Tangle?
