Human civilisation has drawn inspiration from star charts and constellations for thousands of years. In fact, most people want jewellery representing their sentiments; in the same way, looking up at the night sky gives them inspiration, meaning, and purpose.
However, with various options available, choosing the ideal gold and diamond necklace can be intimidating. But don’t worry. You can make the process easier by considering certain factors.
This article will delve deeper into these factors to equip you with the knowledge to confidently pick a piece that mirrors your style.
Choose a necklace that will highlight your best features
The most crucial tip when purchasing a gold and diamond celestial necklace is to consider your facial features. Our bodies, with their variations in skin tone, bone structure, and birthmarks, are a canvas of both perfection and defects.
Depending on the shapes, sizes, and necklace designs we pair with them, our unique characteristics can either draw attention to them or hide them.
Necklaces are more visually striking in the places where they fall, such as this Arabian Nights 18K Gold and Diamonds necklace, which features six beautiful diamond-encrusted star motifs as well as a larger diamond-encrusted moon.
Many consumers succumb to the misconception that when buying a new necklace, only the face and chest should be considered, focusing on the neckline and breasts.
However, your overall structure and shape, including your height and figure, may greatly impact which styles suit you the best.
Measure your neck to ensure the ideal fit
Before making a purchase, it’s important to consider your neck size and how it will complement the style and design of the gold and diamond celestial necklace, especially if you want to go with fine pendants or gold chains.
Measure from your throat to your nape, carefully circling the tape to obtain an exact measurement for the ideal fit. If the pendant falls from the neck to the chest, you might need to add an extra 4–5 inches for a fitting pendant.
When choosing your design, remember that longer designs reflect the wearer’s perception of neck length, while shorter chains, such as this Little Star Trilogy Pearls Choker, create the illusion of a more charming, smaller silhouette.
Use your neck size to determine your optimal dimension and get the most complementary patterns.
Measure the necklace length based on your height
When looking for the perfect diamond necklace, height matters—from your neck to your toes. This is especially true if you are a petite 5’4 (inches) or a tall 5’7 (inches).
Longer styles that rest awkwardly below the chest and stretch towards the stomach tend to overpower smaller forms. Instead, adorn your neck with chokers and princess-length designs to give the impression that you are taller than you actually are.
Longer necklaces like this Moonlight Necklace are gorgeous on women over 5’7”, especially when paired with gold and diamond celestial pendants that drop gracefully for a polished look.
Choose complementary styles based on your body shape
Necklaces come in various shapes and sizes, which can greatly impact how jewellery feels and looks on your body. Bust size is an important factor to consider when picking gold and diamond celestial necklace designs because they sit near or over the chest.
Longer chains over 24 inches can be uncomfortable for people with larger bust sizes. On the other hand, necklaces in the 18–24″ range can draw attention to the upper body and balance the shoulders and waist, enhancing the appearance of voluptuous hips and breasts in curvy women.
Anyone with an hourglass or pear-shaped form can relate to this. Inverted triangles or athletic body shapes with smaller waists can be used to experiment with various designs.
If you have an athletic body, you should exercise caution when wearing longer necklaces, as they can make the body appear longer.
Choose patterns that draw the eye to the tummy, such as this delicate and elegant Mini Moon and Stars Necklace. This will emphasise the tiniest part of the body and hide wider shoulders.
Select patterns that accentuate your facial features
The face, the most prominent part of the human body, is highly valued for its attractiveness and influences most fashion and accessory decisions.
In addition to highlighting desirable traits like eye colour and bone structure, matching gold and diamond celestial necklace patterns to facial features can change how certain body parts achieve a faultless finish.
Chokers and other shorter necklaces like this Odyssey Super Nova Choker draw attention to the neck and soften facial angles, making them ideal for square or heart-shaped faces. Necklaces should be 16 to 18 inches long.
However, styles that frame the face, highlight length, and form a “V” between the jaw and eyes will work best on rounder faces.
While shorter necklines may crowd your greatest features, longer chains, ranging from 20 to 24 inches, can help elongate and shape the face.
Evaluate the metal’s quality
The choice of high-quality precious metals determines your celestial necklace’s overall design and durability. To select the ideal match for your intended look and lifestyle, assess the quality and brilliance of metals such as rose gold, white gold, and yellow gold.
Gold is a natural option for celestial jewellery because of its warm, bright tint and historical associations with the sun and celestial bodies. However, the purity and colour richness of various karats (10k, 14k, and 18k) vary.
Rose gold, such as this Neptune Necklace, lends a romantic, blush-toned warmth, while platinum offers a cool, silvery brilliance that evokes the ethereal splendour of the moon and stars.
To ensure your celestial necklace matches your overall design and lasts over time, consider how you’ll maintain it, the durability of each metal, and your particular preferences and skin tone.
Compare various designs before buying
A wide range of gold and diamond celestial necklaces are available in all sizes and forms. This allows you to explore new ideas and take chances with classic pieces and up-and-coming trends.
But before buying any, analyse the pros and cons of classic and trendy necklace designs to ensure that you make an informed decision.
For instance, a diamond necklace has always been a girl’s greatest friend, and the traditional pearl necklace is still quite popular.
These classic styles, which you can buy straight from jewellery stores such as this Super Nova Enlight and pass down as family heirlooms, have maintained their dominant positions in the market for many years.
Conversely, old celestial designs, which peaked in the 1980s, have returned, mainly because of influencers and celebrities who have helped finance their appeal and spark a positive resurgence.
You should consider the necklace’s durability before settling on the newest, “trendiest” designs. Safer purchases will not keep you trendy but will have a longer lifespan.
Consider the occasion
Choose a celestial gold and diamond necklace with the appropriate style and design for your event. Weddings and anniversaries are special occasions that typically require more beautiful and lavish jewellery.
Balance design and sturdy material to extend the life of your new necklace. Gold and diamond celestial necklaces made with quality materials will last a lifetime, but you need a style you can wear with many outfits.
As a bride, you might choose to spend more money on a more eye-catching statement piece for your wedding day. But don’t sacrifice the quality.
This means that when making your purchase, you should definitely consider the gold and diamond celestial necklace’s continuing function in addition to its original purpose. During the Ramadan celebration, you can also get a timeless piece like this Ramadan Necklace.
Embrace versatility
While many celestial necklaces are only appropriate for special events, the real beauty is discovering a piece that can be worn day or night. Add a little celestial charm to your regular outfit.
When choosing your necklace, consider wearing a versatile style that can be dressed up or down depending on the situation.
A diamond pendant with a crescent moon, tiny star, or zodiac sign, such as this Helios Necklace, can add a delicate celestial touch to your everyday attire while adding just the right amount of refinement to your evening ensembles.
Another option to consider is purchasing a celestial necklace that can be layered with other items to create different outfits for different occasions.
A delicate celestial charm can be worn alone for a more modest elegance or combined with longer strands or hefty chains for a strong, statement-making style.
Consider versatility when selecting precious metals and gemstones, as well. A necklace with a cosmic design made of a metal like platinum or 14k gold can blend well with formal and casual outfits.
Furthermore, gemstones like diamonds can spice up formal occasions while lending a modest sparkle to your everyday outfits because of their classic appeal.
