How to Layer Necklaces

We’re sure you’ve seen layered necklaces everywhere lately! A surefire way to a good necklace stack is to put dainty necklaces of varying lengths together, around an inch apart from each other.
For a more subtle look, ensure that only one of the chains has a pendant/heavy charm and keep the rest simple. If you want to go all out, layer chunkier necklaces with thinner ones and make a bold statement!
Bracelet Stacks For The Win

It’s hard to go wrong with a bracelet stack, but a good tip to keep in mind is to try and layer thin bracelets with chunkier bangles that balance each other out nicely. For a clean and formal look, pair bracelets with smooth and polished finishes. If you’re looking to jazz things up, pairing beaded bracelets and chunkier shapes with thinner delicate pieces is the way to go.

When stacking rings, a rule of thumb is to stack multiple on a finger or two and leave the rest bare for an eye-catching but balanced look. Keep things interesting by playing with gemstone colours and by using different textures and thicknesses.
Another fun ring stack idea is choosing a focal statement piece and layering or placing more delicate pieces around it.

More earrings = more fun! You can opt to go dainty all the way by stacking small studs all along your ear. For a bold look, start with bigger pieces like hoops or huggies on the bottom lobes and go smaller as you move upwards. Also, throw caution to the winds and mix and match both ears, who said your stacks have to match?
With this guide in hand for reference, keep in mind that you can rarely go wrong with jewellery stacking as long as you’re loving the look! So, break out all your beloved pieces and until next time, keep STAC-ing!
