The face
While those with square or rectangular faces can easily soften their features with necklaces featuring rounded shapes and earrings with soft, voluptuous curves such as hoop earrings,
, round faces would be wise to avoid overly imposing styles and opt instead for more structured jewelry: V-shaped necklaces, geometric and sleek dangling earrings…The perfect way to frame your face without overwhelming it!
As for oval faces, they can wear any type of necklace, but should opt for earrings that don’t extend past the chin: small hoop earrings, stud earrings, dormer earrings...
Good news for those with heart-shaped faces: everything looks great on you, from dangling earrings to under-the-ear earrings, as well as choker necklaces and long necklaces!

The neck
Is your neck a little stiff?
Opt for dangling earrings to make your face look longer, but make sure they don’t extend past the angle of your jaw, or you’ll end up with the opposite effect!
If your neck is barely visible, choose longer necklaces, such as statement pieces, to make it look longer.
On the other hand, choker necklaces look especially good on women with long necks.

The silhouette
As a general rule, you should choose jewelry that complements your body type: the slimmer you are, the more delicate and understated your jewelry should be, to elongate your look and avoid overwhelming your figure.
You might want to opt for necklaces like the , chains, delicate rings such as the Mixy rings, and delicate bracelets made of chain, cord, or cuff.
This tip applies to petite women, too! In fact, long, delicate pieces of jewelry—such as long necklaces —lengthen your silhouette and will therefore be your best friends if you want to look more slender!
If you have a curvy figure, chunky jewelry will flatter your silhouette perfectly and draw attention away from your insecurities! Cuff bracelets and flat, bib-style necklaces that lie flat against the skin and end at the chest are made for you!
On the other hand, avoid long necklaces, especially if you want to hide a slightly rounded tummy. These will only draw attention to that area of your body.
For taller women, anything goes: your height allows you to wear chunky styles, such as chain bracelets, but you can also wear delicate, long styles—on their own or layered—if you’re confident about your height!
