But how should you wear a long necklace to show it in its best light? How can you really make this accessory work its magic? Long necklaces always look very chic, accessorising any outfit and adding a certain touch of femininity that never goes out of fashion. Coco Chanel was already sporting this look back in the 1930s, and it&#8217;s still celebrated in fashion shows everywhere today. <strong>So which type of long necklace should you opt for, and what clothes will it work best with? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Whether you opt for an ethnic style or a simpler look, retro shapes or a graphic-design piece; the long necklace is a statement piece in its own right. For truly irrefutable style, simply pair this accessory with basics: a turtleneck sweater or t-shirt, trousers and pumps and you&#8217;re good to go! Remember to adapt the length of the necklace to suit your figure, though. <strong>It should sit somewhere between your chest and your stomach button<\/strong>: any longer and it will just get in the way. If it is too long, simply tie a knot in the necklace, or pass it through a stylish buckle.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_155\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-155\" style=\"width: 653px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.buttonsparadise.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/07\/Looks_colliers_longs_2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-155 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.buttonsparadise.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/07\/Looks_colliers_longs_2.png\" alt=\"SS2015 Delpozo \u00a9 Bazaar SS 2015 Celine \u00a9 Cline HIPPIE SHAKE, SS2015 Edun \u00a9 IMAXTREE\" width=\"653\" height=\"463\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.buttonsparadise.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/07\/Looks_colliers_longs_2.png 653w, https:\/\/www.buttonsparadise.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/07\/Looks_colliers_longs_2-300x213.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 653px) 100vw, 653px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-155\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">SS2015 Delpozo \u00a9 Bazaar<br \/> SS 2015 Celine \u00a9 Cline<br \/> HIPPIE SHAKE, SS2015 Edun \u00a9 IMAXTREE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">So how should you be wearing a long necklace?<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Rule N\u00b01: match a long necklace with basics<\/span>. <\/strong>Go for a blouse, a plain vest-top, a dress or tunic, or an understated t-shirt or jumper.
