The Charm of Chains

,

Forget the dainty charm bracelets and pendant necklaces of your childhood. It's oversized, pile-them-on-thick chains that make a statement, resulting in a look that's unabashedly sophisticated. I love the plethora of styles that have been available lately. Metallic links, colourful loops, chain-mail mesh. There's definitely a number to suit every style, and now's a good time to add a bracelet or necklace to your wardrobe. Another plus: chain links are a relatively classic motif, so chances are you won't look démodée a couple years down the road.

    Love them chain necklaces! I've been looking to get one cause there are days that I don't want to wear pearls but neither do I want a gemstone kind of a necklace. A chain necklace would be perfect especially with my plain tees.

    Your post makes me want to go thrift store/vintage jewelry shopping to see if I can find some retro chain pieces!

    These are all really pretty Lisa. But, I love Assad Mounser's spikey dangles.

    My neck can stand carrying thick chains for necklaces, as much as I so love them, but I do love a chunky chain bracelet. I love that Gorjana one!

    All of these are great but my favorite is the Vita Fede 'Anneli' bracelet because it's rose gold.

    I adore the Marc by Marc Jacobs! Statement necklaces are the perfect addition to a minimalist outfit. Love.
