7 Necklaces for Achieving That Perfected '90s Look
I once quite empathically wrote about my love for silver jewelry for Who What Wear, but I guess I'll be the very first to admit that people do change. I've crossed over to the gold side, and I even throw a pearl moment into the mix when I'm feeling wild. I just can't resist the super cute '90s look of layering different styles and lengths of gold chains and incorporating fun accents like pendants, pearls, and oversize clasps. Looking to achieve the perfect layered look? Keep scrolling.
Start things off with this simple and dainty gold chain and pendant, then seek out a chunky gold necklace that's just a bit shorter in length.
I cannot express how much I love this necklace. The wide-curb chain link gives me the edgy vibes that I love about silver jewelry.
Layering irregular pearls with gold chains is the key to the perfect '90s look.
The paperclip necklace is such a refreshing take on gold chains. I love wearing this alone or with pendant necklaces.
I once stole all the herringbone necklaces out of my grandma's jewelry box, and I'm so glad I did. They add such a unique touch to a necklace cluster.
Spaced ball chains are so delicate and pretty. I love how delicate the coin on this necklace is as well. It would look really good with the pearl or herringbone pieces above. Or both!
And the pièce de résistance: A paperclip chain with a pearl motif. Please layer this with other necklaces in the story, but know it will look divine on its own, too.
Aralyn Beaumont joinedBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing as the copy editor for branded content after a career in food media. Years of poring over intricate recipes with a fine-tooth comb and working with high-profile chefs has prepared her well for working with fashion's top brands while honoringBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing 's voice. Her background as a research editor makes her a finicky editor who will probably care too much about making sure all copy is as factually accurate and aligned with the house style guide as can be. Maybe it's because she's a Gemini, but her personal style is impossible to pin down: One day you'll see her in a turtleneck sweater tucked into a midi skirt with heeled boots, and the next, she'll be wearing mom jeans, a white Hanes tee, and classic Vans. At the end of the day, her style reflects her various moods. Sometimes it will be feminine and elegant, and others it will be grungy or androgynous. Certain things will always remain constant, though. She'll forever be on the hunt for the perfect pair of high-waisted jeans.
