Chunky Beaded Necklaces: How to Style a Clay Bead Necklace
Share
A chunky beaded necklace is one of the most versatile pieces you can own. It is bold enough to be the focus of an outfit, but relaxed enough to wear with jeans. Here is how to style a clay bead necklace through the seasons.
Why choose clay beads?
Big beads made from glass or stone can be heavy. Handmade clay beads give you the same chunky look at a fraction of the weight, so a beaded statement necklace stays comfortable all day.

Three ways to wear a chunky necklace
- Over a crew-neck sweater: the classic winter look. Choose a contrasting color.
- With a button-up shirt: button it to the top and let the necklace sit on the collar.
- With a simple dress: one bold necklace, no other accessories needed.
Softer beaded styles
If you prefer something quieter, try a pastel or earth-tone beaded necklace.
