Choose the Right Cheap Necklace Length

Nowadays many people especially young girls like wearing cheap jewelry.

A princess length necklace is 17″-19″ long. Everyone understands that this is the most popular length necklace. The only rule to follow with the princess necklace is keeping your collar lower than the necklace, so it will clear the necklace.

A matinee length necklace is 20″-24″ long. You'll want to wear a very high or a very low collar with this length of necklace. It will dress up your work and casual clothes. Wear clean line top with this style. You don't want to wear a decorative top that will fight for attention with the necklace.
