Petite Women (5'4"ish and under):  For a more petite gal a collar length or a little longer necklace is a good choice.  If the necklace gets too long (like past the waist) it's a bad thing.  A longish necklace can elongate and hey..that's always a good thing right!?  From seeing a ton of women try on my necklaces I would also say that for the most part....smaller pendants look better on skinny petite women.

Average Women (5'4" to 5'7"):   The "average" woman can pretty much rock any necklace that she desires.  The only exception would be for the full busted woman.  For her a necklace that is a little higher on the neck around the collar bone is a good choice.

Tall Women(Over 5'7"):  My two closest girlfriends fall into this category.  They look fabulous in everything.  I especially like them in necklaces with huge pendants.  A woman that is tall and slim (lucky girl!) looks good in a choker too because it de-emphasizes height.
