In summer, I usually default to easy and effortless elevated basics—a pair of breezy white linen pants, a tank top, and thong sandals tends to be my go-to. But the warm-weather season also provides us with the perfect opportunity to have some fun with our style choices, especially when it comes to accessories. This summer, I’m particularly homing in on bold necklaces—the most dominant summer jewelry trend that I’m spotting on fashion people everywhere—and it’s the absolute perfect option to amp up a basic tank or tee.
Luckily, there are some incredible summer necklaces to choose from for all budgets. Whether you opt for a long tassel necklace, a bold and colorful beaded choker, or layered strands with plenty of charms, below, I’m sharing some of my favorites of the season that will unquestionably elevate your look in an instant.
