While there are a variety of necklace styles in fashion, many styles can get visually lost in an outfit. Long necklaces often hang below the neckline of a top and tend to fall inside the shirt while thin, chain necklaces can disappear when surrounded by an overpowering outfit. However, if you wear a choker, you can avoid these fashion pitfalls. Because chokers are worn close to the neck, they avoid getting lost in the neckline of a top and their bold look ensures that they will be noticed.
Chokers can be very flattering and dramatic; sitting close to the face, they emphasize slim necks and gamine looks. Choker necklaces can be very flattering for people with short or cropped hair, or when hair is styled up, off the face: think Audrey Hepburn or Natalie Portman. Diamond, rhinestone and pearl chokers are often popular as wedding and prom jewelry for this reason, helping create a dramatic, yet very pretty look for a special occasion. Another common style of choker is crafted from leather. These choker styles are popular for anyone who wants to create a goth look or punk style. Leather chokers can come styled with metal studs or crystal beads. Chokers made from hemp and beads are another option, and they are a good way to complement the peasant tops and long, flowing skirts of boho chic fashion. A choker is an excellent addition to a jewelry collection, offering style and flair in a classic form.
