Posted by gbnecklace on April 25th, 2016

In order to look good in a necklace and wear the suitable one, whether it is a bar necklace, a chain or a string of pearls, you need to take into account your purpose, neck, body type and face to get it to fit you right.

When you got to the jewelry shop or see a collection online, you always spot necklaces that you have never worn before, or you it has been rarely that you wore them. What could be the reason?

Usually, the reason would be that you got bored of that piece, or that it didn't fulfill its purpose before ending up looking funny on you, and you may not like it. Or for various other reasons, but mostly because it didn't work with your overall wardrobe or it doesn't flatter you.

To avoid making previous mistakes again and make sure to choose the right necklace, several criteria need to be considered.

The top criteria for choosing the right necklace

Men are different from women when it comes to wardrobe and body type, and these criteria work mostly for women. However, it is useful for men to know too since they might consider getting their women a necklace. So the criteria are:

Your neck

To know the necklace length in a super fast way, you need to use the necklace you usually wear and measure its extended length. That would be the most suitable length for you and would suit your wardrobe as well.

You can do it by starting with your neck. All bar necklaces touch your neck, so the neck's length and width are important too. Long necks can wear about anything, but short necks have some issues when it comes to choosing. However, there might  be some exceptions, so it doesn't hurt to try on the necklace to see, just keep in mind to consider your neck.

Your wardrobe

Your everyday clothes are also important when it comes to choosing the best bar necklace,  for example, a wardrobe that has turtlenecks will need different necklaces from the one with a different collar. And the bar necklace you choose must be appropriate for your clothes, for example, a gold bar necklace would suit some clothes better than a silver one.All in all, you have to ensure that the necklace length and type you pick makes a fine addition to your overall appearance and enhances your looks.

Your purpose

Consider your purpose when you're choosing a bar necklace. Whether getting one for casual daily wearing or for a special occasion. For really special occasions a personalized bar necklace would be a good choice due to the specialty of the event.
