The neck and décolletage has long been considered alluring and nothing draws attention to the area better than a striking necklace. That’s why we’re loving the chunky necklace trend this season that’s seen everyone from Heidi Klum to Kelis rocking the look.
 
Bejewelled, beaded or gilt, big necklaces are this season’s must-have accessory. Layered over a sheer blouse, or flat against a bare neckline, they bring instant style to your outfit and are an easy way to update your wardrobe. Best of all, these beauties don’t have to cost the earth! In fact, it’s easy to pack a punch with a relatively cheap piece from high street stores. This bronzed version I’m wearing was just £4 from Primark at the weekend and it’s changed a simple jeans and silk blouse combo into a bang-on-trend outfit.
 
Easy to wear, the main rule for chunky statement necklaces is – keep your outfit simple. Big gold, multi-coloured gems, metallic, pearls and everything in between is the focus of your outfit so be sure not to go crazy with some paisley prints too!
Remember, the chunkier, the funkier so add this accessory …
