CHUNKY STYLE (necklaces, that is!)


Behold Summer’s Best Necklaces!

A splendiferous way to take your plain white tee from drab to daring... Or pair these outsize collars with a dainty dress for an edgy look.


They are bigger, bolder and frankly, better! And fortunately, we can all afford them!


Paste and plastic baubles are no longer unsightly. Go ahead, dolls: raid grandma’s jewelry box! Hit up that estate sale down the block. Stock up on faux pearls and un-precious gems. Oversize stones will do nicely as well.


I love Lee Angel’s chunky red stone piece (at top right, available at shopbop.com). The complimentary green bits really throw it into high relief, non?

Or try Subversive's new line for Target, with amazing finds like this multistrand turquoise and amber necklace, with gold leaf (literally!) and red stone bauble. And, in true Tar-jay style, all styles are well under a hundred bucks! Go to target.com immediately, lovelies!

Even J. Crew has some rather splendid offerings, such as this coral-tone bubble necklace (at right), which is also available in turquoise at jcrew.com.
Finally - chunky is good! Enjoy . . .
