Lele Sadoughi Style Guide

BLUSH OLEANDER NECKLACE

The Blush Oleander Collar Necklace is a romantic, hand-knotted statement piece that sits at the collarbone with soft blush button beads and a delicate floral center. It is designed to be the focal point of any look, balancing vintage femininity with modern polish, and pairs beautifully with both minimalist and layered styling.

10 Ways to Wear It

1. Wear the Blush Oleander collar with a crisp white poplin blouse and let it rest just above the neckline. Add oversized cat-eye sunglasses pushed up into tousled hair and skip earrings entirely so the floral center reads from across the room.
2. Layer the Oleander collar over a soft cashmere crewneck in oat or ivory, then add two dainty gold chain necklaces of varying lengths underneath. Pair with small pearl huggie earrings to keep the eye traveling down toward the necklace.
3. Style the collar over a black slip dress for evening, then add a printed silk scarf tied at the wrist (not the neck) and sleek gold bangles. Big sculptural gold earrings and an embellished clutch finish the after-dark mood.
4. Pair with a structured camel blazer over a simple ribbed tank, oversized tortoise sunglasses, and a silk foulard scarf tied as a headband. Add a thin leather belt with a small gold buckle to define the waist without competing with the necklace.
5. Layer the collar over a cream cable-knit sweater with the sleeves pushed up, and add a long strand of pearls underneath that falls below the Oleander. Keep earrings to tiny diamond studs and finish with a tortoiseshell hair claw for an off-duty look.
6. Wear with a butter-yellow sundress and a raffia tote for daytime. Add a wide-brim straw hat, round acetate sunglasses, and a stack of thin bangles. Skip earrings so the floral center remains the hero.
7. Style under a sharp tuxedo jacket in midnight with a barely-there satin cami, then add the Oleander collar and statement chandelier earrings. The contrast of masculine tailoring and romantic jewelry is peak evening polish.
8. Layer the collar over a fine-gauge black turtleneck with high-waisted tailored trousers. Add a printed silk pocket square, small gold huggie earrings, and oversized tortoiseshell sunglasses for an art-gallery opening.
9. Pair with a pale blue chambray shirtdress, sleeves rolled, and a thin blush belt that echoes the beads. Add small gold button earrings, stacked thin bangles, and a raffia handbag for a Sunday stroll.
10. Wear the Oleander with an embellished cardigan in soft white, a silk midi skirt, and pointed slingbacks. Add small floral drop earrings that nod to the necklace motif, plus a beaded clutch for a garden-party mood.

Styling Tips

• Let the Oleander be the focal point: when you layer other necklaces underneath, switch to small studs or huggie earrings so the eye lands on the floral center.
• The 16" length is designed to sit right at the collarbone, so pair it with open necklines, crewnecks, or unbuttoned blouses rather than high, fussy collars.
• Echo the blush tone elsewhere in your look, a soft belt, a silk scarf, or a handbag, to create a cohesive, pulled-together palette.
• Store flat in the signature striped pouch to protect the hand-knotted cord and prevent the gold-plated hardware from tarnishing.
• Treat this piece as your anchor and build around it: keep other jewelry minimal in scale so the romantic floral beadwork can speak.
