How to Achieve the Perfect Necklace Stack

Believe it or not, jewelry has become an integral part of my self care. To be honest, I don’t quite feel complete without it. It’s kind of become part of my identity!

Just like my signature ring stack, I’ve been working to curate my necklace stack for quite some time now, and I have to say, I think I’ve nailed it. There’s something to be said for everyday staples that are super basic, but in my opinion, you also need to mix in some personality to achieve the “effortless” stack.

Treat your décolleté like a gallery wall

If you’re starting with a blank gallery wall, think to yourself: what style are you going for? What colours and tones do you gravitate towards? Start with your basic pieces (think standard pendants, everyday chains, etc.), and work your way into the other, more personal pieces. Don’t forget to sprinkle in some unexpected elements (shapes, finishes, different chain styles) for interest.

Choose custom pieces

Just like a gallery wall, to add personality to your stack, you have to include some custom pieces. That’s where companies like Onecklace come to the rescue. They have every custom necklace you could possibly think of. From name plates to initials, zodiacs and beyond, they’ll definitely have what you need.

On Onecklace, you can also choose your chain type (boxchain or rolo chain), necklace length, closure type and material (they even have solid gold)!

My favourite stack as of late includes my Gemini zodiac sign, an “L” inital pendant, and an Arabic name necklace with the word “strength”. I chose a mix of chains (both rolo chains and box chains), and made sure the lengths were staggered. The shortest one is 16”, middle is 18” and finally, 20” for the big pendant. With the scattered lengths and custom pendants, you’re sure to achieve the ideal “effortless” stack you’re going for.

What will you be adding to your collection? I’d love to know in the comments below. Happy necklace-stacking!

Vanity Favourites

Oh, hello friends! It’s been a minute... and I’ve gotta say, between school, work, homework and workouts (with a few gatherings sprinkled in), the burnout has been REAL! The reality is, I wake up, workout (if I can’t in the evening), go to work, then head to school, and come home basically just to sleep... then rinse and repeat!! So it’s safe to say I barely have any energy these days. I’m trying to keep up, but I’m not gonna lie... the 14-16 hour days and tedious homework have been eating up a lot of my energy. Nevertheless, there are a few things keeping me sane these days, including fresh blooms and some new additions to my vanity! From decor to skincare, candles and everything in between, these are my current obsessions. Hope you enjoy!

My Signature Stack

I've been trying to create my “signature ring stack” for what feels like years, so when I finally found what I was looking for, I was over the moon! I’m a big believer in investing in everyday jewelry that will last, and I used to be a huge silver-lover, but I’ve been over it for a while. Let’s face it: gold is the new black. GLDN, to be exact. When they came into my life, my ring stack dreams literally came true. All of their pieces are hand-crafted and engraved in La Conner, Washington, which is so crazy because I used to visit La Conner all the time as a kid! I have so many great childhood memories there… and the GLDN team is beyond sweet. Just genuinely good people… people I absolutely love working with!

If you haven’t heard of them before, they literally have soo many options, from simple stacking rings to engraved, personalized pieces, so you’re sure to find something you love. A signature stack allows you to dress up your everyday look, all while shining a little bit of that personality you have with how you style your rings. Plus, you get to mix and match in so many ways, so you’ll never get bored. I knew I wanted simple, everyday rings that could be worn together, and so far, I’m thrilled with the progress of my stack!

First up, the classic, elegant Kenai Stacking Ring. It’s the perfect polished gold, so comfortable to wear, and ideal to buy in multiples! If you don’t love solid 14K gold (but I mean, who doesn’t), they have other material options available at different price ranges, so you can choose exactly what you want.

One of my favourite rings from my stack is my Marcie Small Oval Ring. I knew I wanted a personal touch of some sort, and because I’m a gemini through and through, my zodiac sign made the cut. I luuuurve it.

Last but certainly not least is my Personalized Rhone Band. The width of the band is just right - not too skinny, and not too thick. And to personalize it, I had to put my one and only’s name down, duhh! Absolutely love how it turned out.

And that, my friends, is my signature stack so far. Next on the list? Probably a thick pinky ring - just need to decide what kind. What are your go-to places to buy your everyday jewelry? Let me know in the comments below!
