• 14 inches pearl strands: These pearl necklaces will fit tightly around your neck and will therefore suit V-necks, boat necks, off shoulders, scoop necks, and cowl necks.
• 16 to 18 inches pearl strands: These pearl necklaces will have their fall near the base of the neck and the collarbone respectively. These are ideal for almost all types of dresses and all kinds of necklines. This length offers the greatest utility.

Accessorise you Accessories

While the champagne pearl necklace may be your fashion accessory, there are so many ways through which you can accentuate the look of this accessory! Here are a few pointers to get you started:

• We cannot stress this enough but layer up! Layers of pearls not only look elegant but the layers of strands are also enchanting, to say the least.
• You may knot the bottom of your long pearl necklace strand. Form a loop and pull the pearl strand from the loop. Tie a gentle knot and you are all set to dazzle. Add twists to very long pearl necklaces.
• Use pearls strands of various sizes for a visually cascading effect. A short strand with large pearls can be the statement piece supported by longer but smaller pearls. If you wish to achieve this look for a casual event, you can try out different shades of pearls. Think of how stunning the champagne pearls will look when complemented by blue bead strands.
• Like we said before, stack your pearl necklaces with other gemstones. Pearls can soften the look of vibrant and bold gemstones like sapphire, diamond, or amethyst so you can complement the stones with the pearls. The stark contrast between the champagne pearl necklaces with the sparkling of diamonds and other gemstones would bedazzle your ensemble.
• Spice up your pearl necklace by adding diamante (or real diamond) brooches. You can use multiple brooches but do not go overboard and hide the pearls. Adding the pins will offer a distinct look to your pearl necklace without the involvement of any radical changes to the necklace.
• If you wish to have a perfectly edgy look, pair up your plain pearl necklace with a trendy spiked choker. Choose a length that allows your necklace to perfectly sit inside the choker. For a champagne pearl necklace, opt for a choker that is either silver (for contrast) or golden (for uniformity).
• For an absolutely classic old time look, you can decorate your pearl necklace with a corsage. In fact, you can pin your necklace to the dress with the corsage. It will keep the necklace in place.
