When picking out a statement necklace to wear, pick a color that complements you, whether it’s your skin tone, your style or just your favorite color, your overall look will make you feel your best when it reflects who you personally are. Since this Fashionsta chose a bold teal necklace, she decided that complementing it with a neutral top would make her outfit look clean without having it distract from the necklace or be overwhelming.
