Jewellery and your face shape | Round Shape Face  *Full-looking face with fullness at or below the cheeks, a round chin and hairline. Widest point is at the cheeks and ears. A round face has a full appearance with the width of the face being about the same as the length. *A round face needs a necklace that adds length to your look. A longer or T-style necklace flatters a round face. Long necklaces will give the illusion of length. Try to find necklaces that are 28"-32", or that have the focus well below your neckline. Avoid chokers or short necklaces, & also avoid large stones or pearls. These styles add a visual thickness to the neck. Perfect for a round face is a deep plunging neckline, try a necklace with one strong focal element a little above the bust line it will look great on you. *For earrings you are the lucky one! Almost all earring types look good on this face shape. You might want to try angular shapes such as squares or rectangles, but really you can get away with anything! Round face celebrities: Kate Winslett, Drew Barrymore, Charlotte Church Square Shape Face 
*A strong, square jawline & usually an equally square hairline. The width of your cheeks & forehead will be similar, with your face appearing longer than it is wide.
*The square face needs length & softness. A T-style or a simple strand necklace that hang a little longer would be perfect.
Square face celebrities: Demi Moore, Hilary Swank, Katie Holmes, Sandra Bullock
Diamond Shape Face 
*Widest at the cheekbones, & narrow equally at the forehead & jaw line.
*A diamond shape can carry any style.
*Drop earrings especially look beautiful with a diamond face. Diamond face celebrities: Sophia Loren, Linda Evangilista, Katherine Hepburn Heart Shape Face
*Your face is fuller & wider at the temples & hairline, tapering at the cheeks, down to a small delicate chin.
*A heart shape face looks lovely with a choker, or a double or triple strand necklace. By creating fullness at the neck with the right necklace, you can balance the wider eye & cheekbone area with the delicate chin of the heart shaped face. If you like the look of a longer necklace consider getting a long wrap necklace that will circle the neck twice, once at 16" or 17" and again at a longer 26"-30" length.
*Dangle earrings will be a good choice for you. Try earrings that dangle into a triangular shape to even out and lengthen your face.

*Long & slender, about the same width at the forehead & just below the cheekbones. Narrow chin or forehead.
*A rectangle face needs softening & width. Shorter necklaces work nicely. Rectangular face celebrities: Oblong Shape Face *An oblong face is enhanced by a choker style necklace. A choker helps to soften the ‘vertical line’ that can occur, especially if you also have a long neck. Look for bold necklaces in the 16" length. Another option for this face shape is a rounded longer necklace. Look for a necklace that keeps a round shape, like one made from memory wire.
*Earrings should be short and bold. Lots of drama and colour will look great on you. Oblong face celebrities: Sarah Jessica Parker, Terri Hatcher, Janet Jackson, Stephanie Seymour Triangular Shape Face  *A dominant jawline that tapers or narrows toward the cheekbones & temples.
A triangle face is similar to a heart shape, but with corners & angles. You can match the angles of your face for impact or counterbalance them for softness. *Avoid necklaces that end with a point. Triangle face celebrities: Victoria Beckham, Kathy Ireland, Martine McCutcheon
