Chunky necklaces okay to wear with business suits?
Yes.
You’re not talking about crazy large necklaces that fluff up around your neck right? Okay good. I’d try experimenting with a couple of styles with a business suit.
Keeping it too delicate (for me), is a bit too boring and conservative.
I like the look of a bright, bold necklace with a conservative suit. But then again, I’m more of an accessories girl than anything.
I would however, refrain from anything too bright, too colourful (I’m talking a rainbow in a necklace made out of huge chunks of papier-mache), or anything that overpowers the entire outfit.
Instead of a a classic chunky pearl necklace with a suit, you can see that the shape of the chunky necklace works, so why not try it in a set of bright thick stones? Or something more elaborate?
You want to keep it in line with the suit’s curves, slightly conservative (stick to a colour or a shade of colours in the same family), and to not have the necklace enter the room before you.

It’s a great way to add some personal character to a business suit as long as you are under 50, which you are so go for it!
I gonna agree. There are really no rules anymore when it comes to fashion. As long as a person can pull it off, it’ll be a “DO”.
Cute blog title 🙂
I love the look. Fun heavy metal with a nice suit is cute to me.
My SO gave me a beautiful string of pearls for Christmas and I’m very attached to them; that’s what I wear to work. I like the alternative idea, though.
I think the photos presented look fab with a chunky necklace. I think it depends on the suit cut, and shirt underneath. I tend towards smaller necklaces though…the chunky ones feel uncomfortable around my neck. 🙂
Chunky necklaces are fab with business suits they excude status and femininity at the same time!
Love the name of your blog. It make me laugh!
