Big, bold and beautiful, the chunky chain is the must-have accessory emerging from the new collections for 2014. Couture houses from Chanel to Lanvin even allowed them to overshadow clothes on the runway. The big-link necklaces range from punk rock chokers to works of art like this elegant brushed 18K yellow gold Jaipur Link chain by Marco Bicego. Wear it at the office, to a ladies’ lunch or a night on the town. Oversized chains are now as chic and sophisticated with evening gowns as with tees and jeans. $19,360 at Tilden Ross Jewelers, 410 St. Armands Circle, (941) 388-3338.
