Bust Size and Necklace Length
By Calla Gold

Take a woman's age and body type into account when helping her find the right necklace./font>

Something just didn't look right in the photograph of my good friend. Everything was in focus, her smile was wonderful, but something was wrong. Her necklace threw me off – it didn't frame her face correctly. Choosing the right chain or necklace isn't hard. Several factors steer this decision, including age, body shape and body composition.

Short Neck Gauge by Age
Generally speaking, a woman's age plays a distinct role in determining the necklace she should choose. Younger women with youthful skin should wear necklaces closer to the throat to show off their smooth skin. The gauge or thickness of the necklace should be narrow. Smaller pearls show best on youthful necklines. Pendants and charms should be on the small side too. Younger women who wear bigger, wider and flashier necklaces can look like they're trying to play "dress up" with their mothers' jewelry.
