Well, the weather has certainly picked up a bit recently, so what better time to talk about the best jewellery pieces to wear with strapless clothing? When the weather is warmer, we think wearing items that really show off your shoulders and collarbones can be really elegant. To accentuate these areas, there’s nothing better than a pair of statement earrings or a delicate necklace. Here are some jewellery pieces we recommend wearing with a strapless dress!

Delicate necklaces

There’s nothing we love more than a delicate piece of jewellery, and we miss wearing them during the winter months (they can sometimes get lost paired with a chunky jumper, or multiple layers). So, when the warm weather finally does appear – however fleeting it may be in the UK – our favourite thing to do is to look through our forever-growing collection of jewellery and pick out some delicate necklaces to pair with my strapless dresses.

This 9ct gold & clear cz crystal shining star pendant on chain is such a gorgeous piece, and as it’s such a delicate necklace it really shines when it’s paired with a silk camisole or a strapless dress. You can get it at various lengths, but the 20 inch one is best as it will sit above the neckline of your strapless clothing.

Our other pick would be the 9ct gold interlocking hoop pendant 16 inch necklace, it’s a simple design of interlocking hoops but is perfect for wearing with a strapless dress to subtly accessorise. 

Pull through earrings

When it comes to earrings, pull through designs are the most elegant and as they sit just about your shoulders they’re the perfect piece to wear with a strapless dress. You can get quite a few variations – from simplistic single metal designs to more eye-catching designs with pearls and gems.

When it comes to a simplistic design, the sterling silver wavey bar long dangle pull through earrings are a great option. They’re a really pretty yet sophisticated design and will work really well for a multitude of outfits, especially for an evening event or a more formal occasion. This pair of 9ct gold & white freshwater pearl pull through threader earrings are a great choice for a timeless pair, and the pearls create a really classy feel.

Of course, when it comes to picking metal types and the colours incorporated in your jewellery, it is crucial to think about the colours that will go best with your outfit. If your dress or top is black then you’re lucky as pretty much everything will go!
