When it comes to making updates to your wardrobe, adding new accessories is an easy and cost-effective place to start. Cheaper than a new pair of high-end booties or a designer bag, chokers are fun and funky Fall accessory trend.
The look is a mix of bold and feminine. The use of heavier-weight materials or a wider necklace takes a girly item and give it a touch of edginess. Some of the choker designs include multi-strand chains, beading – glass or metal, assorted baubles, and gemstones. Take a look at Rihanna below for an example.
I found some cute chokers in the Leaf Lee shopat Etsy. My favorite is this one, the Gold Mesopotamian Style Wire Wrapped Necklace. The use of varying sizes of metallic beads draws your eye all over the necklace. It’s an interesting piece – on trend and very reasonably priced at $28.
The Red Oriental Wire Wrapped Necklace adds a burst of color at the neckline. It’s made of flexible wire with a mixture of beads – glass, plastic, and pearl. It’s a bold color choice for only $28.
Leaf Lee’s Chain Necklace is made from dangling bits of chain. The links are of a large diameter. This choker sells for $34.
