A turtleneck is perhaps the best blank canvas for a necklace. Think about it: there’s no v-neck or crew neck neckline to navigate around. You’re not concerned that the necklace is going to disappear behind a cardigan or button-up shirt. A necklace won’t overlap with your decolletage and shirt. Instead, it’s just one sleek backdrop for the necklace to drape perfectly over. 

Ready to shift into fall mode and choose just the right turtlenecks and necklaces to create your fall wardrobe? Here are five necklaces to pair with turtlenecks all season long.

A Long Pendant Necklace

The look of a long pendant necklace is just the right antidote to the high neckline of a turtleneck. A pendant necklace with a large pendant, especially an open one like the wake necklace, adds both a bold effect and lightness to your favorite fall sweaters. Add it to any turtleneck, from a sleek, fitted cotton turtleneck to a chunky knit.

A Smooth, Shimmering Necklace

A smooth, shimmering pendant hanging from a delicate chain lends a feminine, soft look to a turtleneck. The silver medium pebble necklace from the Creek Collection would be a pretty addition to a cashmere turtleneck in a lovely fall hue.

An Elegant Dangling Necklace

If you have a turtleneck dress that’s begging to be taken out for a formal occasion (or at least a date night!), then dressing it up with a sparkling necklace is the move. A necklace full of facets and dangling diamonds, like the diamond gold borealis necklace, pops over a sleek black turtleneck. Make sure the turtleneck has a slim fit to show off all the shimmering surfaces of a statement necklace.

A Curved Gold Necklace

For a turtleneck and necklace combination that’s a little bit edgier, try a gold necklace that has a striking silhouette, like the curved gold bar of the gold and diamond icarus necklace. When it’s layered over a turtleneck and paired with trendy jeans, this has a look that is right at home at a concert or a night out with your friends or looks crisp and slightly unexpected under a blazer for a big meeting.

A Nostalgic Charm Necklace

There’s nothing sweeter than a pretty gold and diamond charm set against a classic turtleneck. This is the kind of look that is absolutely timeless. You can’t pin it to a certain time or era. You can even wear it with a chunky turtleneck and let it effortlessly hang over the top for a retro throwback style.
