No matter how perfect your clothes are a great outfit just isn’t the same without some trendy jewelry to add that finishing touch. This holiday season big and bold necklaces are the hot ticket item and we’re showing you what they are and how to get them.

Simple Yet Elegant Necklaces

During the holiday season we often like to fight off the winter blahs by wearing bold colors. While bright and multi-colored clothes are a fabulous way to make a statement it can make finding suitable jewelry a bit tricky.

The clear beaded necklace from Mika is the perfect solution. It’s big and chunky beads are right in line with this season’s trendy jewelry but the absence of color means it won’t clash with multi-colored or “busy” holiday attire. The lack of color also means this beaded necklace can do double duty as day wear without looking too over the top. Pair it with a bold colored blouse or jacket and let the clear beads pick up their color—no worries about clashing colors!

Sometimes a chunky necklace is simple in color or design but yet comes across so bold it makes a fashion statement all on its own. This amber beaded necklace is the perfect example. With its unique “scarf” design it’s the perfect accent to a strapless or off the shoulder dress.

When Trendy Jewelry Gets Funky

Sometimes you just have to go bold with your holiday jewelry. Bold and colorful necklaces look best when paired with simple attire. This funky circle outline necklace is perfect for when time is of the essence and you have to take work attire out for the evening. Simply keep this baby in your handbag and its ready to dress up a simple black dress in a flash.

Celebrity Inspired Vintage Necklaces

When the event calls for the upmost in elegance you can’t go wrong with these divine celebrity inspired vintage necklaces. While they are perfect examples of today’s trendy jewelry these pieces also transcend fads and time due to their classic style.

Elizabeth Taylor’s Peregrina necklace has a love story attached to it as beautiful as the piece itself. Worn by Spanish, French and English royalty this breathtaking necklace was later gifted to Elizabeth Taylor by her twice husband Richard Burton. The replica shown here is a stunning piece to be worn with pride and treasured for years to come.
