Wear It Now: Statement Making Collar Necklaces

Beaded, bejeweled, and structured collar neck pieces have been spotted all over the runways at this year’s Spring 2012 Fashion Week. Designers chose to continue the current Fall trend of collared jewelry and add an elegant touch for next Spring.

The detachable neck pieces are structured just like shirt collars and are the perfect way to add a little pizazz to your cardigan, patterned blouse, or basic t-shirt. Spotted in shows like Lanvin, Isaac Mizrahi, Louis Vuitton, and Chanel this accessory can be even be worn alone as a statement necklace.

You can keep it simple letting the collar speak for itself paired with small stud earrings and a classic watch, or pile mixed textures of bangles on your wrist to compliment for a dramatic feel. Keep your ensemble basic, because with these pieces, it’s all about the little extras that make all the difference.

We rounded up some lavish options to splurge and choices that won’t quite break the bank. –mckenzie harris
