Welcome to another installment of the “How to Wear” series. This time we’re talking about the ever (and perhaps over) popular bubble necklace. I’ll admit this style has become a little overdone in the fashion and style blogosphere. HOWEVER, in my everyday life, I’ve yet to run into anyone else wearing one. Not that I’ve noticed, anyway. This leads me to believe that – at least in Indianapolis – the bubble necklace is not a huge mainstream trend, and people might still have at least a tiny bit of interest in seeing my thoughts on what to wear with one. If you’re sick and tired of seeing these damn necklaces, feel free to leave now (but come back soon…pretty please).
So without further ado, here are 5 ways I have styled my neon green bubble necklace:
1. Make something bold even bolder by putting your statement necklace over a bright print
2. Jazz up a casual top like chambray (this might be my favorite combo)
3. Make the necklace the center of attention by adding it to a monochrome outfit
4. Play with the color wheel and put your necklace against its color opposite (red/green, blue/orange, yellow/violet)
5. Wear it to work with a shift dress and jacket
Find your own bubble necklace in a range of colors and prices!
- J. Crew, $150 (it’s real gold, that’s why)
- Last Call, $44 (this one’s a little different but I love it!)
- Francesca’s, $38 (mint)
- Max & Chloe, $32 (cream)
- JC Penny, $20
Time to pick your favorite! And tell me if there’s a way you wore your bubble necklace that I didn’t cover here. See the original posts: 1 / 2 / 3 and 4 / 5
Don’t forget to follow me on Bloglovin’, even if you hate bubble necklaces. I promise I wear other jewelry.
Lots of teachers at school wear bubble necklaces.
Wellll perhaps you should see if they like my blog 🙂 TELL YOUR FRIENDS, PEOPLE! Please and thank you.
Haha, that is exactly what I thought when I saw this post! Teachers are a little limited in what they can wear, so they need to have some fun with accessories (and also shoes, I’ve found). This past week my supervising teacher rocked her turquoise bubble necklace with a white button down, much like your third look.
I like the contrast of it with the chambray as well. I do not have the bubble, and will not. Though to be fair I have not seen them too much around town, mostly in the blogs I read. It is more necklace than I think I can handle.
This is the most versatile neckpiece I’ve seen around….I love all your look but it’s the chambray & the office look that win for me!!

I love the third and fifth looks. I need to get a bubble necklace. I’ve never in the real world either, but man, the blog world loves them!

I’m so over these necklaces on blogs but, now that you mention it, I haven’t seen them in real life really. So this hopefully does help someone who wants to try it out in their wardrobe!
That’s what I’m hoping! And it’s OK if you’re tired of bubble necklaces…you can just replace it with any bib or statement necklace in your mind 🙂
I love this post! I have 2 (bought one, then won one a day later haha) and I don’t ever wear them – I need to!
I really like that necklace, I´ll probably use another color. And really ike the outfits!!
XOXO
