      HOW TO PERFECT THE ART OF JEWELLERY LAYERING

      Some people just seem to nail the layered jewellery trend, while the rest of us battle - is it too OTT? How do we get different lengths to sit "just so"? With so many chains at our fingertips, it is about time we perfected the art. We chatted with one of our favourite local stylists Sarah Starkey, aka "Queen of the Layers." Her work is laden with new ways to wear our favourites - from all-over-the-head hair clips, to stacked up choker-style. 

      For anyone afraid of going a little OTT, how do you recommend layering up your chains? Do we need to mix and match with thickness, etc.?

      I think the whole fine jewellery look has passed. It is all about layering with different variations, the more the merrier. 
      Now that we are in the cooler months, wearing layered necklaces over rolled necklines and collared shirting.

      What pieces do you suggest layering with a classic style like the star sign necklace?

      The star sign necklace comes on a fine chain, so I would layer them with different lengths and widths. Like these -

      For those of us with multiple piercings, what kind of pieces do you recommend and how would you structure them?

      Wearing a combination of mismatched earrings. Staggering bigger hoops with small hoops, studs and huggies.
      1. If you have three holes I would start with this in one ear:

      And the opposite first hole:
      coralia hoops reliquia

      2. Second holes:

      3. Then the third I would put this in one side:

      And the opposite third hole:
