I have a friend who always looks put together, with jewelry that looks chic yet effortless. The secret: create bundles of complementary necklaces in various lengths to suit any neckline. I call these "necklace capsules."
What is a necklace capsule? Think of it as a capsule wardrobe, but for jewelry. I started putting "necklace capsules" together for myself years ago, long before capsule wardrobes were a thing. I would group up necklaces that worked well layered together and hang them on S hooks in my closet. When it came time to travel, I would simply grab an entire necklace capsule, roll up the necklaces into a small towel, and presto: a lifesaver for business travel.
Ready accessories on the go. Even when I'm not traveling, necklace capsules make it fast and easy for me to pick out few necklaces to glam up an outfit. I rotate necklace capsules in / out every month or so for a fresh look.
The key to necklace capsules is to have a variety of necklace lengths. You want to have necklaces that work with any neckline and give you lots of options for layering necklaces together.
Something New - For the past month I've been trying out something new: selling some of my necklace capsules on Poshmark. The pieces work individually and layered. I'm going to be listing more of my necklace capsules soon. In the meantime, I'm sharing some here. Parting with these has been harder than I thought it would be, and I'm grateful for the Love Notes I've been receiving from Poshers about these necklace capsules.
June 2019 update: all of my necklace capsules on Poshmark are sold.
