Paperclip Necklaces GLAMOUR's Edit Of The Coolest Jewellery Around

The jewellery you choose is such an expression of your personal taste, although there’s one jewellery trend that seems to unite every style tribe right now - and that’s paperclip necklaces. We’re spotting the traditional stationery staple’s glow-up adorning the neck of every influencer around. Beyond whether you’re a fan of gold or silver, if you're a minimalist or love to layer, paperclip necklaces are a versatile addition to anyone’s accessory arsenal.

You might be browsing for gift ideas for your mum, sister, bestie or girlfriend… or you might just be searching for a lil something to adorn your own festive lewks. Paperclip necklaces will do all the above. We know you don’t need us to spell it out, but based on the humble paperclip, these chains have a quirky vibe while also looking tough… although they can be equally dainty.

Former accessory designer of the year Katie Hillier was one of the first to spot the actual paperclip’s potential, bending gold jewellery into cult buys in the Naughties and today, some of our favourite jewellery destinations are focusing on paperclip necklaces. Missoma’s Coterie Chain Necklace, £198, is one of our favourites (and fan of the brand EmRata has been spotted in Missoma’s paperclip necklaces too.)

If you’ve an investment-sized amount to spend, Zoe Chicco’s Double Chain Paperclip Necklace would be a style you’d never take off, although we also spotted a cute necklace from Accessorize that rings in at just £10.50.

If you’re as in love with paperclip necklaces as us (and EmRata, Naomie Harris, Daisy Edgar Jones and Phoebe Dynevor - who have all worn Missoma's versions on repeat…) take your obsession one step further and layer up a collection. Mixing one gold and one silver style in two different lengths (say, one 16inch and one 24inch) is an easy way to start. Move on to a collection of three chains of differing weights (try a tiny chain, a chunky style then something in between) for a curated look. But once you’ve worn one, we guarantee you’ll be hooked.
