Layering initial necklaces is a personal way to add a playful dimension to your style. Creatively playing with the jewelry you already own is a great way to create a fresh new look every time you dress up. For most style connoisseurs, layering is a favorite way to style and wear jewelry. In fact, layering initial necklaces has become so much more than just a trending look. It is now a skillful art that every fashionista needs to master!

With so many online images to reference and ubiquitous social media, striking the right look can seem daunting. Are you wondering how to layer initial necklaces to achieve a well-curated, yet effortless look? Here are some simple tips to create your own perfect initial necklace stack with beautiful pieces from Gabriel & Co.!

Decoding the Best Ways to Layer Necklaces

Layering initial necklaces isn’t cookie-cutter styling. Bring your creative juices to the fore and experiment. One of the chicest ways is to mix and match the varied necklace styles that you own.

Start with putting on a primary initial necklace that you want as the focal point of your look, like this beautiful and classic white gold and diamond initial pendant. Then work your way down from top to bottom.

Different Lengths of Necklace Styles

Choker: 14–16 inches

Princess: 18 inches

Matinee: 20–24 inches

Opera: 30 inches

Ropes & Lariats: 35 inches or more

Have two initial necklaces you love, that are both the same length? Many Gabriel & Co. necklaces come with a 3 jump-ring feature, which allows for layering the necklaces in the following lengths: 15.5″, 16.5″, and 17.5″! It’s amazing how a few extra inches added to a chain can make all the difference to how the layered stack looks!

Another best practice is to use contrasting metals. Once considered taboo, mixing metals is a trend that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere! By combining different metals, you can create a look that pops and allows each piece to stand out easily.

It’s exciting how much one can play with initial necklaces to add meaning to a stacked combination. Madly in love with your partner, fiance, or husband? Why not layer both your initials? A doting mother? Add your kids’ initials to your stack and flaunt your motherly pride around your neck. The only point to remember when layering initial necklaces is to consider the length. Initial necklaces should be well-spaced out, so they don’t look too cluttered.
