Chunky gold necklace

luppy

I going to a wedding over Xmas and have a plain enough black dress so want to jazz it up a bit. Was thinking something lie this http://www.etsy.com/listing/99290967/egyptian-necklace-cleopatra-necklaces?ref=sr_gallery_26&ga_search_query=cleopatra+jewelry&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=IE&ga_ref=auto8&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet=cleopatra+jewelry

But do u think it might be a bit cheap looking? Or am I better introducing a bit of colour? Any suggestions welcome!

Personally I think that looks a bit cheap. Maybe it's just the photo but it looks flimsy and if you have long hair I imagine it will get caught up in the links of the necklace.

If you really want to wear gold/silver jewellery, you could still make a statement by wearing a few finer pieces together:



A colour could be nice and would help 'lift' the outfit. What colour are your shoes/bag etc?

I love turquoise and I think this is a pretty example of it with a black dress:



I think pearls look great with a black dress too, but you have to be careful they aren't too 'bridal', if that makes sense!
