Red Statement Necklace for Valentine's Day

A statement necklace is a great way to instantly take a plain outfit to the next level. Back in my college days I was really obsessed with statement necklaces and bought a ton. Since I started “adulting” after college, I haven’t worn all the necklaces I’ve collected. It’s probably because of a lack of time to change in the morning and after work when I get home. Not that it’s that time consuming, I just decided to cut that step out of my routine. Now that I have my own place I’m staring at my necklaces more and want to start wearing them again. With Valentine’s Day right around the corner adding a red statement necklace is the perfect way to start incorporating them back into my outfits.

How to Wear a Red Statement Necklace this Valentine’s Day

There’s honestly not too many wrong ways to wear a statement necklace. For example, my only rule is I don’t wear a statement necklace with a statement collar. This can come off a little flashy and I’m not a fan of that. Other than that it doesn’t matter how you layer on a statement necklace. For Valentine’s day in particular a red statement necklace is perfect. A red statement necklace is especially great for Valentine’s Day when it’s paired with pink. Of course, this is not the be all end all to make a great Valentine’s Day outfit, it’s just my personal preference.

3 Ways to Style

Here are just 3 ways I’ve styled a statement necklace for Valentine’s Day this year.

My personal favorite way to wear a statement necklace is by carrying the color of the necklace throughout the rest of the outfit. Which combination is your favorite of the three?
