Generally, I don't subscribe to the 'less is more' adage. I'd rather add a bauble (or five) than remove an accessory before I leave the house, contrary to Coco Chanel's famous advice. That's why I was positively thrilled about the bag charm trend and why I'm all in when it comes to charm-laden necklaces.
The look is anything but dainty; think heavy-duty chains strung with an array of eye-catching charms, from vintage talismans to precious gemstones. You probably already own a few errant pendants and that's the beauty of this trend (which is so timeless it oughtn't be called one, though it does feel particularly zeitgeisty right now) – it utilises pieces you already have, with the option to add a new chain or charm to the mix.
