How to Style a Double herringbone necklace with Different Necklines
A herringbone necklace can bring a little polish to even the simplest outfit. The trick is to consider how the neckline frames the chains, rather than treating the necklace as an afterthought.
Our Double Herringbone Necklace combines two layers with heart charms, making it a lovely starting point for an outfit. Here’s how we like to wear it.

Style a herringbone necklace with V-necks and open collars
Use the open shape of the neckline to frame the two layers.
A V-neck creates a natural frame for the Double Herringbone. Try it with a softly draped blouse and tailored trousers for an outfit that feels considered without being too formal. Let the necklace sit naturally and check how the neckline looks around it before heading out.
An open-collar shirt offers another easy option. Leave the collar relaxed and experiment with the buttons until you like the balance between fabric and jewellery. A crisp shirt gives the gold-tone finish a clean backdrop, while a softer shirt makes the look feel more relaxed.
For an evening outfit, try an open-neck blouse with a blazer. Wear the necklace on its own and let the heart charms add a softer detail to the tailoring. If the collar covers part of the design, simply open it a little more or fold it back.
Pair it with round and square necklines
Choose a neckline that gives the chains and charms their own space.
A round-neck T-shirt makes a simple setting for the necklace. Try a plain tee with jeans and a blazer, then look at where the neckline meets the layers. You might prefer the jewellery against your skin, or enjoy the contrast of part of it resting against the fabric.
With a square neck, the straighter edge brings a different shape to the look. A square-neck top and wide-leg trousers make an easy pairing; the heart charms add detail without needing another necklace. Keep the rest of your jewellery simple if you want the layered design to lead.
If the neckline and chains meet in a way you don’t love, try a different top rather than forcing the arrangement. The most useful styling check is in the mirror: look at the whole outfit, then decide whether you want the necklace or the neckline to be the focus.
Try high necks and occasionwear
Let the necklace bring contrast to a high neckline or a simple dress.
A high-neck top creates a backdrop for the gold-tone finish. Try the Double Herringbone over a fine-knit jumper, with tailored trousers or a skirt. Smooth the fabric first, then place the necklace over it and arrange the layers so you can see the shape you like.
For a more relaxed look, wear it with a plain high-neck top and an open cardigan. The cardigan frames the jewellery without adding another detail at the neck. You can personalise the outfit with earrings or a bracelet rather than adding more chains.
For an occasion, a simple dress lets the two-layer design and heart charms have their moment. Try the matching Herringbone Bracelet if you’d like a coordinated finish. Whether the dress has a high or open neckline, check that the necklace sits where you want it before adding other accessories.
Get to know the design and care
The necklace is waterproof and can be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth.
The Double Herringbone is made from gold-tone 316L stainless steel and weighs 11.8g. Its two-layer design combines a high-shine finish with heart charms, so it already gives you a layered look. Wear it alone when you want those details to stand out.
The necklace is waterproof, and our product guidance says it can be worn in the shower or at the beach. To clean it, simply wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. That straightforward care makes it easy to return to when you’re planning your next outfit.
When choosing what else to wear, think about balance rather than matching every detail. A pair of understated earrings keeps attention near the neckline, while the Herringbone Bracelet makes a coordinated pairing. You can also let the necklace be your only piece of jewellery.
Is it worth it?
The Double Herringbone is a lovely choice if you want a layered look with heart details, without styling separate necklaces. Its waterproof, gold-tone 316L stainless steel design works with everything from an open shirt to a simple high neck.
