Any decoration should be perfect for a lady. To do this, you need to purchase things of the correct size. We will analyze in detail: how to choose chains on the neck.
How to determine the length?
Finding out the length of a chain you like is not easy. But this is necessary in order to choose the right outfit and pendant.
Each young lady should rely only on her own taste preferences. Someone loves products that are in close contact with the neck, while others prefer longer specimens. It all depends on the desires of the lady.
Most modern manufacturers make chains in accordance with a single standard. It is completely independent of the material.
According to the standard, the length should be a multiple of five.
Varieties
There are several varieties of length accessories. Let's consider them in more detail.
- 40 cm - a short chain. It is better to wear it for young women of fashion, teenage girls or fashionable young men.
- 45 cm - slightly longer products. They are also suitable for young girls and fit perfectly into romantic bows, especially if complemented with a charming heart pendant.
- 50 cm is the classic size that advises the standard. Such options go to almost all the ladies. Such items will be a great gift solution.
- 55 cm or more - chains with such a long are better to buy tall people with a dense physique. They are able to visually stretch the figure and make it more elegant.
- 60-70 cm - things of this length are rare. But if you still decide to decorate the image with such an accessory, it is recommended to purchase models made by your own order.
Of course, you can choose the perfect jewelry yourself. It does not take you too much time.
Before you go to the store, just wrap a thread around your neck. It must be fixed exactly at the length at which you would like to pick up the chain. Now the thread can be removed and measured.
Do not forget that the length of the accessory should be a multiple of five, so the resulting number must be rounded to five, in a larger direction.
Take the ruler with you. So you can measure the selected circuit if in doubt.
A chain is a great gift option. It is very easy and simple to choose:
- If you are choosing a present for a young fashionista, then you should turn to charming pieces of small length. Short accessories will look incomparably on the neck of a fashionable girl.
- Older young ladies are advised to present medium and long lengths as a gift.
When choosing the perfect decoration, lean on your wardrobe. The chain should be in harmony with the clothes. For example, with a sexy neckline, a shorter model will effectively look. But if this detail in clothes is more modest and is located higher, then you should turn to long copies.
Thickness
When choosing a suitable decoration, not only its length, but also its thickness plays an important role. It is measured in millimeters. Let us consider in more detail the table of these parameters.
- The thinnest and most accurate models do not exceed 2-3 mm in width. They very successfully emphasize the graceful female neck.
- The thickness standard does not exceed 4-5 mm. These chains are designed for charming pendants and other stylish additions.
- The thickest options are chains whose width exceeds 7 mm. As a rule, they are not complemented by decorative elements.
Finding the perfect thickness product is easy. The younger the young lady, the better the thin chain will look on her. Older ladies are better off wearing thicker accessories.
The chain should be suitable not only for the lady's age, but also for her figure.
For example, short and thin models visually make the neck shorter and fuller, therefore, it is recommended to use such thin ladies only for such options.
The opposite effect is long jewelry. They make their owner more slender, stretching the silhouette. Such instances should be addressed to people who are overweight.
How to care?
Each lady decides for herself how and when to wear the chain. Some remove it upon arrival home, others do not want to part with the decoration even at night. But the chain still needs to be removed, since without proper care it will lose its attractiveness.
A well-groomed product will last its owner for a very long time. You need to protect the chain from the effects of any chemicals. If your jewelry is made of gold or platinum, this does not mean that it can be exposed to the negative effects of chemistry.
These metals do not oxidize and do not enter into chemical reactions, but aggressive agents will definitely not benefit your favorite jewelry.
Try to protect the circuit from sudden temperature changes. This can lead to the formation of cracks on the metal and the loss of its original luster.
The accessory must be periodically cleaned. It is carried out using a normal soap solution, in which you can add a few drops of ammonia. Just dip the chain into this solution and then gently wipe with a dry cloth or a small towel.
What and how to wear?
The selection of a stylish ensemble depends on your tastes and the characteristics of the chain (length, thickness). Most models harmoniously look at various pendants. But do not forget that on excessively thin female chains such additions will look ridiculous.
Pendant dimensions play an important role in a stylish look. If it has a length and an elongated shape, then visually make the ladies silhouette more slender.
The color of this part should fit the chain. For example, if it is made of red or yellow gold, then it will be more difficult to find a suitable pendant. A more versatile metal is white gold. To him, like silver, there are a lot of different jewelry.
Women who prefer a permanent classic are advised to refer to sets that have one color palette. It is not worth this rule to adhere to creative young ladies who love bright and rich combinations.
Not the least role is played by how exactly you wear accessories complete with clothes. For example, short chains are universal, therefore they are combined with almost any thing. The exceptions are only outfits with a high neck.
The trend of recent seasons are thick and long models. They will look harmoniously with both office and evening ensembles. In a stylish decoration, you can well go to a noisy party, where you will surely attract attention.
You need to carefully select the pendant. It should fit in size and shape to your outfit and the event you plan to wear it on.
For an office suite, it is worth choosing a pendant in a classic version, especially if you are going to combine it with a formal suit. It should not be decorated with various inserts.
To chic outfits for an evening out come brighter models. But do not abandon the classics. Jewelry in this style is suitable for everything, and the evening ensemble is no exception.
You can choose a trendy pendant in retro style. She will give a lady's image a special charm and mystery.
If you are a creative fashionista who prefers avant-garde, then you can turn to more non-trivial products. For example, it can be charming models in the form of animals, dragons, insects, fish tails, etc. Such instances are able to emphasize the bright personality of their owner, so they are selected in accordance with the taste preferences of the lady.
It is recommended to hide the pectoral cross under clothes if you went to work or a fun party. This product is very personal. It should not be shown to others. You may well wear another piece of clothing over your clothes.
Accessories are recommended to be selected in a color scheme that would harmoniously look with clothes. For example, if your favorite jewelry has bright and saturated colors, then monophonic outfits in a restrained palette will be combined with it. Classic accessories can be worn with things of almost any color.
