Some chains can simply make you stand
out from the crowd – Miami Cuban link chains are one of them. They
are thicker than standard chains, and are made of substantial pieces
of gold that are interlocked in a unique pattern that almost
resembles herringbone. The style was popularized by Miami-area
rappers (hence the name of the chain style and pattern) but it can be
worn by just about anyone, as long as you style it correctly.
Various Lengths of Miami Cuban Link
Chains
Unlike some necklaces that only come in
standard 18-inch and 20-inch lengths, Miami Cuban link chains are
available in a variety of them. You have your choice of 16, 18, 20,
22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, and 40-inch chains. This means
that no matter how big your neck is, or how far down you want your
chain to hang, there is one available for you. Some of the longer
lengths can even be doubled up for maximum impact.
Pick Your Favorite Style
Do you prefer white gold or yellow gold? Maybe rose gold? How about encrusted in tiny pave’ diamonds?
Miami Cuban link chains are available in all of these, from 10K to
14K gold. While most of the thicker widths (those 3 millimeters and
up) are marketed towards men, this does not mean that women are
limited to only the 2.5 millimeter ones. Anyone can pull them off –
all that you need is a little confidence – so feel free to choose
the best ones that suit your personal taste and style.
How to Style Your Miami Cuban Link
Chain
Due to the thickness of the metal,
Miami Cuban link chains can make many other pieces of jewelry look
insubstantial. This means that you should either wear it alone around
your neck, or looped alongside several other similar chains. Earrings
may get lost in the “shuffle,” unless they are large as well.
However, you can get away with wearing rings, bracelets, and other
pieces of jewelry, whether or not the metal matches. (The rule on
wearing only yellow gold with other yellow gold items – and so on –
went out the window a long time ago.)
As far as clothing is concerned, you
can wear a Miami Cuban link chain with just about anything. It will
look nice with a tailored suit for men, or a skirt suit for women.
You can wear one with your club gear, that designer sweat suit that
you lounge around in, your casual outfits and, really, anything else
that you can think of. The outfits that you can wear a Miami Cuban
link chain with are as versatile as the style of the chains
themselves.
Miami Cuban link chains are guaranteed
to turn heads, so be prepared for some attention when you’re
wearing them, no matter what you’ve chosen to wear with one. Their
versatility makes the price well worth it, and you should find
yourself reaching for your chain on a daily basis. Your biggest
problem may be choosing just which one(s) to buy!
