She wears and layers these bold (and costly) jewelry pieces like they’re no big deal. A couple of days ago, Zoe was spotted spending some quality time with her husband, Rodger Berman, and their two beautiful boys.

Walking the streets of New York, Rachel donned a long black off-shoulder dress that she accessorized with glam gold chains. The shorter necklace with a bold pendant looks like a vintage Givenchy piece, and the longer one is a vintage Chanel coin necklace.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Rachel rocking gold chains. A few months ago, she attended a charity event wearing a strapless bohemian-inspired maxi dress punctuated with a chunky gold chain.

How does this style maven keep her look glamorous with these bold jewelry pieces? She pairs it with sophisticated dresses and other glamorous accessories.

These chunky accessories can appear tacky and cheap when worn with casual outfits. However, when paired with glamorous attire, they look luxurious and effortlessly elevate dressy ensembles.
