Things To Keep In Mind While Choosing Necklaces To Layer Together:

• Check the

neckline of your blouse

whether it’s open or deep cut, embroidered or plain. It’s best to avoid layering too much with the heavily embroidered neckline to avoid making the look too busy.

• Pick

colour tones

from your lehenga or saree and use those colours in different jewellery layers for a fun yet super coordinated and pretty look.

• Layering Pearls, diamonds and polki with pastels is a great look

for a bride who doesn’t like going heavy

• Play with different shapes and sizes of gemstones, textures and styles of necklaces to create your very own

unique look

• Confused about layering? Satlada necklaces, pearl, emerald and ruby strings are

simple yet safe pieces of layering

with which you can almost never go wrong.
