Top 10 Lariat Necklaces

BEST FOR: If you're a diamond necklace devotee, try switching things up with this solitaire lariat. With two cushion-cut crystals and 18-karat gold vermeil, it has just as much sparkle but feels a little trendier.

STYLE WITH: The shorter length (16.25 to 17 inches) makes this style ideal for everyday wear. Pair it with wardrobe staples like plain white tees and basic blouses to give them a luxe touch.

WHY YOU NEED IT: Meet 2020's version of the coin necklace trend. Just like the OG styles, you can wear this vintage-inspired piece everywhere and with everything—it's seriously versatile.

STYLE WITH: Amp up the vintage vibes by layering this with other chains of varying widths and weights.

LOVED FOR: A little more minimal than Kendra Scott's typical designs, this lariat necklace features faceted spike accents on a long metallic chain that give it just a touch of edge.

AS SEEN ON: Hailey Baldwin wore a Vivian Necklace with an LBD, so we'll be wearing the Vivian Necklace with an LBD.

BEST FOR: The extra-long length makes this lariat the ideal accent for extra-low necklines.

USERS SAID: "I wanted a simple gold necklace that I could wear with anything, and this necklace is exactly that. I've purchased other pieces of jewelry from this brand and the quality has been great, so I'm expecting the same from this necklace. I'm planning to purchase the rose gold as well!"

LOVED FOR: Made entirely of freshwater pearls, this pretty piece offers a more feminine take on the lariat necklace trend.

USERS SAID: "This is a charming necklace! I got many compliments on it from the get-go. Not too big and not too small—it makes a nice statement without going overboard. Love it!"

WHY YOU NEED IT: Complete with hammered beads and glinting chains, you can wear this beauty as a lariat, choker, or pendant. Talk about versatility.

WHERE TO WEAR: Statement-making without steering too costumey, this lariat necklace is perfect for dressy occasions—think weddings, weekend date nights, and beyond.

WHAT IT DOES: Thanks to that pretty adjustable bead, you can slide this dainty lariat to your preferred length. And don't worry—once you adjust it, it won't budge throughout the day.

WHY YOU NEED IT: Just like most of Mejuri's styles, this piece features gold vermeil (which is much thicker than gold plating), so at $60, it's a total steal. 

BEST FOR: Maximalists, meet your match. With its vintage-inspired coin, eye-catching chain, and slightly oversized style, this is your best option for making a statement.

USERS SAID: "I am a big fan of coin necklaces, and this one is really nice. It is not at all heavy in weight, but it has an expensive look to it. The color is bright shiny gold, and the length is adjustable so depending on your clothing neckline, you can adjust accordingly. I have not worn it yet, but I expect that I will receive many compliments when I do!"

LOVED FOR: With its slender, flexible chain and majestic tassels, this versatile necklace comes with multiple styling options. Double it up for a choker effect, tie it in a knot, let it hang loose—you can do your thing with this one.

STYLE WITH: This is the perfect piece to complement all your pretty floral frocks this season.

WHY YOU NEED IT: Not only is it ranked #1 on the list, but it's also the cheapest and boasts tons of rave reviews. You can also wear it as a lariat style or as a long pendant, so you've got options here.

USERS SAID: "Love love this necklace! I bought it in the silver color, and I am absolutely thrilled with it. I am a goldsmith so I rarely buy jewelry I didn't make myself, but I had to have this piece—it's versatile, timeless, and a really great price too.
