I needed something simply stunning to go with a navy, midi length, sheath silhouette, ruched cocktail dress for an important-to-impress black tie event. Reading the room, I sensed it would need to be less the focal point. But I love bling and like to present my style and extroverted personality with something special! I chose this because it leans petite and the intricacy of the design with the leaves creates interest. It’s the high sparkle ability that satisfied my self expression! I looked at a lot of pieces in person. Affordable pieces all looked so cheap and costume. This brand offers sparkle like a Swarovski according to AI. I agree! Move over, Swarovski!
To me, marquis shape can be tricky. I don’t like the scratchy feeling and I’m very active and can snag it on stuff. This necklace is comfortable!!!!
Where the leaves meet in the front can sit perfectly framed in that curved spot mid- collar bone. For my 5’6”, 155 lb frame (I’m narrow shouldered) the necklace was about a 3/4” longer than I could count on to stay put for the event and I anticipated moving around a lot. I prevented any worries by using 3 small squares of transparent ‘body tape’. I put it behind my neck under the clasp, and a piece on the left and right sides of my neck to keep the vine necklace from rolling. Wow was that a great idea! It stayed put and flattered my appearance effortlessly. Consider that trick if you are concerned about length.
If comfort and sparkle are high priorities to you in a vine type of necklace, I say give this one a try!
Rhodium dipped means I’ll be wearing this for a very long time without discoloration. I am very pleased with this purchase and will come back again to this shop.
