This neutral color shirt has its own vertical lines. The short black necklace does not interfere with the stripes and maintains the very conservative color of the shirt.

Adding the long red seed beads creates a colorful focal point that interferes with the black stripes.

The short seed bead necklace is a better choice to add the same bright color. 

This bright red on red print looks fine with the long matching red necklace. The seed beads add a touch of sparkle without competing with the print.

The onyx and red necklace is still suitable because it incorporates the two colors in the print. The necklace becomes the focus.

The long black milfiori necklace with its multi color flowers competes for dominance. A plain black necklace would be a better choice.

The short red coral beads are also a good choice.

If you have a beautiful bright or multi-color necklace that you want to highlight, wear it with a neutral plain fabric. I consider black, white, beige, and gray to be neutral colors. You might also wear a very dark or very light shade of one of the colors in your necklace.

You can also look at your bead jewelry from a distance. A strand of beads that combines a bright color with a neutral one can be considered a single color necklace if your eye focuses on the bright color and ignores the neutral. The onyx in this photo blends with the black sweater. The colorful beads stand out, making a splash of color without overdoing it. On white, both the black and the colors would be seen.

This bright print dress has dominant pink and yellow flowers when viewed from a distance. I tried a pretty necklace that matches the pink perfectly. The details of the necklace get lost in the bright print.

Instead, plain yellow beads bring out the yellow in the print and I like them better.

A plain pink top lets the details of the pink necklace show.

I didn’t really like the sweater until I put a rhodonite necklace with it. The beads echo the dominant color of the skirt at the top of the image and draw the eye focus.

The aqua necklace looks better with my aqua and black top.

The peridot necklace blends with the lime color top and looks fine.

However, I prefer the faceted black onyx because it repeats the look of the black beaded flowers and adds emphasis to the top of my image.

 A shorter strand will be a better choice for a deep V neckline.

To keep the emphasis on the deep V, wear beads that will not compete with it for dominance.
