Statement pieces often require you to break a piggy bank or two, but it’s hard to maintain the pow factor of a statement jewel when you wear it over and over again. To keep the momentum going, you really need to change your jewelry up, which is why I love CUCHARA. The line offers a mix of edgy, alt-rocker pieces at affordable price points. The chokers in particular caught my attention for their ever-so-subtle S&M feel, especially the Honey ($98). Just make sure you play that card well to get the right kind of attention! The Cleo in gold ($154) or silver ($148) utilizes the same metal choker, only accented in the front with a longer, thinner chain – a sort of choker/traditional necklace hybrid. The Echo stands out as a chain choker, also with a thinner, secondary chain dangling below. This is the kind of piece that can be worn on its own or layered. And if you take a minute to peruse the jeweler’s website, it’ll be no time at all before you find other necklaces to add to the mix! CUCHARA chokers available on CUCHARA.
