Best Bet: Morse Code Necklace

Though “more is more” becomes something of a styling philosophy around Fashion Week — we spotted kitschy bauble bibs out in full force — sometimes an outfit calls for something less flashy. These Morse Code necklaces by Portland-based label Coatt offer a delicate accent to play off wild prints or basic black and white. Fourteen-karat gold or gold-fill beads are strung on a twisted silk thread, spelling out a word, phrase, or personalized message. The cord comes various lengths and hues, and the weight of the dots and dashes hold the necklace’s rounded shape without weighing you down.

Morse Code bracelets and necklaces, $40 to $160 online.
