HOW TO WEAR JEWELLERY - NECKLACES

Jewellery always fits, and is the true finishing touch to any look. Whether you prefer fine layered chains or a bold statement necklace there is nothing like a piece of jewellery to add character and interest to an outfit. Don't be afraid to amp it up like Iris Apfel who is not afraid to wear bright colours, oversize glasses and jewellery together. Wearing jewellery should be a pleasure, choose things that you love and wear them with confidence.
