The Boat Neck:
The boat neckline can be quite a tricky one to accessorize. This neckline accentuates and enhances the shoulders and collarbones. Wearing short necklaces with it is a big NO NO, as would interfere with the neckline and thus create chaos, so it is best to wear long necklaces. Anything which is more than 25” long would suit it best. See how the celebs are doing it.

The V Neck:
One must be very careful while adorning a V neckline. It is always best to go with accessories which follow the V shape . Long Necklaces of minimum 18 inches in length will be the safest bet for the V.  You could also try a short necklace only if it also follows the v shape and sits on the neck in harmony with the neckline.
