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?

[quote Nayday]Tiffany necklace, worn daily for about the last 10 years. Still absolutely lovely and looks brand new.

I second this one! I have it in rose gold and it’s beautiful.

Jewellery tastes are so different. I could only ever wear a single round diamond on a single chain if I had to wear it every day.

FranklyMyBeer · 04/01/2022 16:07

Like the tiffanu above (bit bigger diamond!)

I have a simple silver pendant that is made from a mould of a stone from my favourite beach. Simple, very nice for fiddling with and meaningful. I love it.

I've got an old diamond gold Tiffany necklace (don't think on their website anymore) which I used to wear most days but prefer to wear with diamond studs and I don't tend to wear diamonds much now.

Otherwise I don't really wear a necklace every day but have also been wearing a Tiffany silver lariat hearts necklace too which I'd forgotten I had.

when I was a teenager - I wore a silver floral (engraved) fairly large Victorian cross on a chain - almost every day - unless I wore that (not sure about that really now) now I'd quite like to update to something else. No idea what.

Current boyfriend is Cypriot though and they do some lovely silver jewellery from Cyprus if he was ever to buy me something.

There's so many on the John Lewis website I can't link them all but I have now added loads to my mental wish list

I have many lovely necklaces from Alyssa Smith Jewellery/House of Alyssa Smith.
She makes many different styles, definitely my favourite jeweller.

Another vote for Tiffany here! Their pieces are beautifully designed, and their silver bits are (relatively) affordable for how wearable they are.

MinesaBottle · 04/01/2022 21:01

I wear this one most days, my Chinese zodiac animal is the tiger (and in the Western zodiac I’m Pisces but I like tigers!)

They have some beautiful pieces in silver as well.

[quote RemorselessNorsemen]DH: "What do you want for Christmas?"
Me: "I'd like a silver necklace in the shape of the Zandevoort circuit please with a diamond at the start line"
DH: "Ok...."

I do love my motorsport jewellery though.

Oooh I want a Monza pendant now after McLaren won there last season!

@Cheeringmeup

www.tiffany.co.uk/jewelry/necklaces-pendants/elsa-peretti-bean-design-pendant-GRP11429/ Got this for my daughter's 18th. It's simple, modern but classic, and she's my wee bean. She wears it a lot.
Damn! I had that on my list but I've realised it's only a 16" chain and I prefer 18"

like a PP I find Sheila Fleet jewellry stunning sheilafleet.com/

Sadly they are out of my price range now but I have 3-4 old pieces that are just marvels.

I have one almost identical to this and have worn it almost every day sine DH gave it to me about 7 year ago. Mine was made by the same person, but i dont have a stone in the middle, it has a little having stone www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1109352292/sterling-silver-blue-diamond-tiny-sand?click_key=9a8db88d0eaa371d52e89ecad805face327af4a8%3A1109352292&click_sum=a59c39bc&ref=shop_home_active_22&pro=1&sts=1
