Finding Your Balance Points for Necklaces and Necklines is a game-changer when it comes to choosing accessories that enhance your natural proportions. Moana Robinson, Personal Stylist at B Styled for Life, knows that the right choice of accessories and clothing can make a world of difference. One important yet often overlooked factor is the concept of balance points, which are specific areas on your upper body that guide where you should place a necklace or define a neckline to achieve a visually appealing and comfortable look. Knowing these points can enhance the natural proportions of your neck and overall appearance.
This point is determined by measuring from your hairline to your chin and then replicating that distance downward from your chin. This measurement indicates where a necklace or pendant should ideally rest to harmonize with your face and upper body. It’s a guideline that helps create balance and draws the eye to a comfortable and flattering spot.
This is found by measuring from the widest part of your face down to the chin. Then this measurement is replicated from the shoulder downwards. That point is where a necklace or pendant rests or the neckline looks the best.
The balance points provide another reference for placing necklaces, pendants, or necklines. Choosing this point ensures that your accessories complement your natural proportions, giving an elongating effect or balancing shorter necks.
Balance points help in making your attire visually appealing by aligning with your natural body structure. When your necklace, pendant, or neckline aligns with these points:
Women with shorter necks benefit greatly from aligning their necklaces or necklines with their balance points. This trick elongates the neck and creates a more graceful appearance. On the other hand, women with longer necks can use balance points to maintain proportion and avoid the overly elongated look that may come with certain necklace placements.
While it’s helpful to know these balance points, many women have an innate sense of what feels right when wearing a necklace or choosing a neckline. If a necklace feels uncomfortable or “off,” it could be because it’s not aligning with one of your balance points.

Just as balance points guide necklace and neckline placement to enhance proportions, making small adjustments to clothing—like raising a neckline—can make a significant difference in both comfort and style. Whether it’s tailoring a garment or aligning accessories with your balance points, these subtle tweaks ensure your look is uniquely flattering and authentically you.
Understanding and using your balance points is a subtle yet powerful way to refine your look and enhance your natural beauty. Whether you prefer bold, statement necklaces or delicate pendants, placing them according to your balance points will help you look and feel your best. The next time you’re accessorizing, remember that these points can guide you to make choices that bring balance and harmony to your style.
