A universal necklace you can always wear?

I have never been much of a jewelry person but I am slowly converting. I would love to pick out a delicate (timeless?) necklace I could wear everyday and with any outfit but I really don't know where to look for one.

I have a white gold engagement ring so would probably like to go along the lines of a similar metal to not contrast it too much. So silver or white gold probably.

Where does everyone go for their jewelry nowadays? Any good online retailers or high street stores worth looking into?
Or even better - considering my taste can be questionable - any actual pieces that are nice?

Lines & Current are brilliant, I love their earrings also. Anuka are another good website. I've not bought jewellery from Georg Jensen but I have some sterling silver Christmas decorations from them that I love.

A simple diamond pendant. Classic, elegant and timeless. I only take mine off when I am swapping it for something more dramatic for a specific outfit.
Came to say this. A classic diamond pendant you cannot go wrong with.

I wear a small coin with my birth year on it, made into a pendant.

MathsyUsernameGoesHere · 26/11/2021 22:58

I have this and wear it a lot. It's simple but I think quite modern.

Mine is a gold pendant with my initial. It was an impulse buy from Accessorise in Paddington station and I think it cost £40. I haven't taken it off since I bought it - it goes with everything and I love it.

dh bought it me around 15 years ago for a special birthday and I very rarely take it off. It goes with everything and is simple, elegant and timeless.

I alternate between a diamond daisy and a chunk of Opal for every day west

www.monicavinader.com/mixed-metal-beaded-choker-necklace-38-43cm-15-17/sterling-silver-mixed-metal-beaded-choker-necklace-38cm-43cm-15-17 Very simple, goes with everything and mixed metals aren't yucky anymore. I wear it layered with bigger pendants too.

I also have a thin chain with a sentimental ring on, it's easy to wear and nice to have it on me without wearing a ring all the time.
