Fashion Tips for Wearing Necklace with 2 Initials
Looking to add a personalised touch to your outfit? A necklace with 2 initials, also called a double-initial necklace is a dainty, meaningful piece that blends everyday style with sentiment. Ours are crafted in solid 18 and 14k gold for durability and a luxe finish.
What is a Double Initial Necklace?
A Double Initial Necklace or a necklace with 2 initials features two letters often yours or a loved one’s on a chain. Fonts and finishes vary, so it’s easy to match your style. While many versions are gold-plated, Argent & Asher pieces are solid 14k and 18k gold, giving you the best balance of beauty and durability.
Although a necklace with 2 initials is he most popular choice, you can in fact, choose more letters. We also offer the option of adding a heart or a spiritual symbol to your solid gold initial necklace to make it even more personalised.
How to Style Your Double-Initial Necklace
Now that we have a better understanding of a double initial necklace, let's dive into some fashion tips on how to wear it.

1. Keep it simple
The beauty of a gold double initial necklace is its simplicity. It's a small yet impactful piece of jewellery, so you don't want to overwhelm it by wearing other pieces of chunky jewellery. Instead, keep it simple and let the necklace be the focal point of your outfit.
2. Layer it up
If you're feeling a little more adventurous, try layering your double initial necklace with other dainty necklaces. This will add depth and texture to your overall look. Just make sure to stick to a similar colour scheme and keep the other necklaces minimal to avoid looking too busy.
3. Mix and match
Who says your double initial necklace has to feature your own initials? Get creative and mix and match with your significant other's or your children’s initials. This is a great way to show your bond and add a fun twist to the necklace.
4. Dress it up or down
A necklace with 2 initials is a versatile accessory that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. For a more formal event, style your gold double initial necklace with a tennis necklace or other diamond heavy necklace. For a more casual look, go easier on the diamonds, and add in some more gold heavy pieces and wear it with a t-shirt and jeans for a cool and casual vibe. At Argent & Asher we always have something personalised on and wear them daily.

Master the Art of Layering Your Double-Initial Necklace
Layering is the key to creating a chic and sophisticated look. And the same applies when it comes to styling your initial necklace. There are a few ways you can layer your double initial necklace to add depth and dimension to your outfit:
- Pairing Necklaces with 2 Initials with Other Jewellery Pieces: You can layer your double initial necklace with other delicate pieces such as a simple gold chain or a dainty charm necklace for a more subtle and classy look.
- Mixing Metals for a Modern Look: Don't be afraid to mix and match metals when layering your necklaces. You can pair your gold double initial necklace with a silver or rose gold necklace for a modern and edgy vibe.
- Creating Visual Interest with Different Lengths: To create interest and balance in your layered look, opt for necklaces of different lengths. You can pair your double initial necklace with a longer chain to add a unique look to your outfit.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different layering techniques and outfits to find what works best for you. And most importantly, wear it with confidence, that’s the most authentic way to create your own personal style.
