Statement Necklaces-- I think you either love them or hate them.

Hate them.

(On me, that is.)

It depends on the type of statement necklace & the outfit. If it's out of balance, it's not a good look. The necklaces from Graver & LOGO look like cheap imitations from mall shops like Icing by Claire's or Forever 21, at double or triple the price. Of Q's offerings, I like & own some of Joan Rivers' necklaces, but they come with high price points.

I tend to notice them on other people if paired with the right outfit. On me, I would likely feel I had too much going on.

I love them, most of them anyway. I've seen some that are just way too big and/or hang too long, or both!

Loving Susan Graver's candy color one today - so fun, so colorful. Would love to have it. I've seen a couple of great ones by Lori Goldstein too.

Depends- something like this, for me, is too much (and I LOVE color!).

I also don't like ribbons, tassels, nor leather-

Or things that look like plastic or bad enamel-

I think they look too heavy in most cases and I know they are hot ....when summer gets here and it's 107 degrees again the last thing I want is anything hanging around my neck....no scarf, no necklace, no nothing. I did see the candy colored SG and it is pretty but $42 is too much for base metal.

I like them.

I like them but can't wear them either because of the cheap alloy it's made from (breaks me out)... or the way it's made on the back itches me to death. I tried... it's a no.

Since I don't wear fashion jewelry, my statement necklaces tend to look like this:

Plastic junk especially Gravers.

LOVE the Silver necklaces... that's more like what I wear. And Ripka's statement necklaces and a couple of Michael Dawkins....

I totally agree with the OP. It's exactly how I feel.

Re: Statement Necklaces-- I think you either love them or hate them.

I like them and have several that I've had for years ... but not so glitzy ... mine look Egyptian. Sort of Cleopatra-ish.

I don't like the plastic-looking ones. Some are so heavy too.

I tend to wear longer necklaces anyway.

I'm wondering how much longer these statement necklaces will be in style.

I like bold, important jewelry........but I don't like every big necklace that might be called a "statement necklace". It totally depends on the style and workmanship. Some are just big and clunky or busy or even hokey. Some are sophisticated and interesting. I like the latter. In fact, I'm wearing one now!

Thanks for posting these, Lola. And I don't particularly like any of them.

I don't like statement necklaces at all, on me. They are usually too heavy. They look fine on others, sometimes, sometimes not.

I used to like them, several years ago. But, as others have said, it has to be the right necklace with the right outfit.

Now, I've gone back to small, simple gold or silver necklaces with small pendants. Sometimes I do wear two or three together, at different lengths.

Some I like, from Etsy.

Like one I'm wearing now.
