Gone are the days when a simple chain necklace was the accessory of choice.  The trend in jewelry has shifted to “more is better” and “bigger is best”.  In 2013 it’s all about statement necklaces, bold bangles, multiple pieces and lots of layering.  Sound like an easy look to pull together?  Well, I’ve seen many a woman try to pull off this look with no luck.  There’s an art to layering all those beautiful necklaces and bracelets you’re seeing in stores and on-line and I’m here to share a few styling tips with you, so you can layer your jewelry with confidence.

With so many summer sales going on, now is the perfect time to pick up a few bold colored necklaces that can carry you into fall.  Be creative with mixing and matching your pieces and have fun creating looks that show off your personality.
