Special Occasion Dress Accessory

What do you think of Back Necklaces that are worn with special occasion dresses or other apparel?

 

These are 14K gold plated and are priced at $68 each from BHLDN.

I think they look wonderful with these dresses!  A beautiful and unexpected little treat!

I love them.  

 

I have several -- gold, silver, chipped gemstones, and  a fashion paperclip style.  They weren't sold as back necklaces, but I knew the style would make them versatile so I could wear them front or back.  Basically, they are just long necklaces with no discernible clasp.  Either open-ended, or one is a 36" necklace that I loop through and wear lasso style with it hanging down in the back.  

 

I wear very few dresses.  I love tops with a V in the back for these necklaces.

I really like them too, esp. as shown on these models.

 

I have an ugly back.  I wouldn't want to draw any attention to it whatsoever.  I admire those that can wear this accessory and look so nice.  Cat Sad

They look pretty, but I don't think I'd ever do it. I don't have formal events and need to dress up like this, but the feeling of a dangling necklace on my back would probably drive me crazy.

They look lovely with the right dress, I would wear one for the right occasion.
