What Is a Lariat Necklace?<\/h2>\n

A lariat necklace is characterized by its linear, vertical design. Unlike a standard pendant that hangs from a loop on a chain, a lariat features a “junction” where the chain drops down into a decorative ta<\/span><\/span>il,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>often ending in a bar, <\/span>gemstone<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>or decorative charm<\/span>.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, lariat necklaces\u00a0<\/span><\/span>remain<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a mainstay in modern fashion because they offer a unique architectural element that standard circular necklaces lack. Currently, they are trending as the “finishing piece” in layered looks, providing a vertical focal point that helps elongate the torso and break up the horizontal lines of sweaters, blazers and high-neck tops.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Because lariats have a vertical drop, they occupy more space on your chest than a standard circular necklace. Here\u2019s how to choose:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

16-18-inch Lariat Necklace<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

The clasp sits at the collarbone, and the drop falls just a few inches. This is perfect for layering with shorter chokers or<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>filling the open space of<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>various necklines.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This length is designed to highlight the<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>d\u00e9colletage<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>The drop usually ends at the center of the chest, making it the ideal partner for V-neck tops or wrap dresses.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When choosing a length, think about how\u00a0<\/span><\/span>you\u2019ll<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>wear it most often. Consider your height, the necklines in your wardrobe<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a<\/span>nd<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>where you want the focal point of the jewelry to rest.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How to\u00a0<\/span><\/span>W<\/span>ear a\u00a0<\/span><\/span>L<\/span>ariat\u00a0<\/span><\/span>N<\/span>ecklace<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

Styling a lariat necklace is refreshingly simple.\u00a0<\/span>Because\u00a0the design\u00a0bridges the gap between the neck and the waist, it\u00a0acts as a visual centerpiece that pulls together separate elements of your ensemble.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lariats shine with V-neck tops, plunging necklines and open collars, where the drop can follow the natural line of the neckline, but they also add interest to higher necklines when worn long and loose. If you love layering, try pairing your lariat with a shorter chain or choker\u2014just keep the lariat as the longest piece so it can do its thing.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While standard lengths are perfect for traditional styling, the\u00a0<\/span>lariat\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0versatility<\/span>\u00a0truly comes to life<\/span>\u00a0when you play with its proportions to create\u00a0<\/span>an entirely<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>new<\/span>\u00a0look<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0For example:<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • If you have a long lariat necklace (30 inches or more), wrap it around your neck twice. Let one loop sit snugly against your throat like a <\/span>choker and<\/span>\u00a0let the remaining ends hang long.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • If\u00a0<\/span>you\u2019re<\/span>\u00a0wearing a backless dress, t<\/span>urn the lariat\u00a0<\/span>around and<\/span>\u00a0l<\/span>et the long decorative ends drape down your spine for an unexpected<\/span>, show-stopping\u00a0<\/span>moment that feels tailor-made<\/span>\u00a0for the grandest of occasions.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    When to Wear a Lariat Necklace<\/h2>\n

    Modern lariats feel just as\u00a0<\/span><\/span>appropriate for<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>daytime wear as they do for evenings out.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Here<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>are a few ways to explore the limitless styling potential of this design<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>throughout your day<\/span>:<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • In a\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>professional setting<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, jewelry should be polished but never distracting. A lariat is the perfect alternative to a traditional strand of pearls or a heavy statement necklace.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • In a\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>casual\u00a0<\/span>environment<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, jewelry should feel approachable but never look like an afterthought.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>By breaking up the horizontal line of a simple tee or a cozy sweater, the lariat adds a deliberate layer of style that makes your most comfortable basics feel curated and “put together.”<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
    • When dressing for a\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>gala or wedding<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, jewelry should be a focal point but never compete with the architecture of your gown. Whether it is following the plunge of a deep neckline or highlighting the sweep of a backless dress, the lariat acts as a fluid extension of your garment.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
    • During the\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>shift between seasons<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, jewelry should be bold enough to stand out against heavier fabrics without getting lost in the layers. A lariat is the perfect alternative to a delicate chain that tends to disappear under a coat or a chunky necklace that feels too heavy for a light knit.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
