REVIEW: Pandora ME Link Chain Necklaces

“You can’t use up creativity, the more you use, the more you have.”

Shorten it, lengthen it, layer it… the possibilities are endless with the Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace!

The rebooted Pandora ME Collection was relaunched on the 30th September 2021 and I have been wearing the pieces every day since! Full of creativity, the new Pandora ME Collection is inspired by Gen Z and their fun energy.

The refreshed Pandora ME Collection features four new necklaces; the Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399685C00), Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399590C00), Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (389685C00) and the Pandora ME Freshwater Cultured Pearl Necklace (399658C01). This review will discuss the first three Pandora ME necklaces.

Dora Explores: Pandora ME Link Chain Necklaces

As an avid Pandora collector I have quite a big collection of Pandora bracelets but only a few necklaces and they are all lightweight chains. So when the Pandora ME Collection was relaunched I was delighted to see new necklace options with lots of styling potential!

The chunky sterling silver Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399590C00) chain necklace is 45cm long but with its removable links it can be easily adjusted. Add additional links to lengthen the necklace or remove a few to style as a choker.

The Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399590C00) features three openable connectors with grooved lines, two double links between each styling connector and a carabiner clasp closure. Swap the double links for four small interlocking links, a double link or one styling link. Style with mini dangles on the openable styling connectors and add medallions to either links or openable connectors.

The Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace separates into seven different elements. One chain with the carabiner clasp attached, one ordinary chain, three openable connectors and two double links. Each piece is engraved with ‘S925 ALE’, the normal Hallmark for Pandora silver jewellery. As my necklace originated from the UK it also stamped with the UK dealers mark.

Currently the Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (389685C00) is the only rose gold necklace in the Pandora ME collection. Although it is has a modern chunky style, the beautiful blush colour makes it a very feminine and pretty piece of jewellery. With a length of 50cm it is ideal for layering with other necklaces. Alternatively, links can be added or removed to make the necklace longer or cute a choker style.

The Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (389685C00) is plated with 14k Rose Gold over a unique metal blend.
There are 12 links between the carabiner clasp and two styling connectors, providing endless styling possibilities. Once you’ve decided on your necklace length, styling mini dangles on the openable styling connectors or add medallions on either the links or openable connectors. 

The Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace separates into five elements. One chain with the carabiner clasp attached, two ordinary chains (one long and one short) and two openable connectors. Every piece is engraved with ‘ALE MET’, the Pandora hallmark for 14k Rose gold-plated jewellery.

The Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399685C00) has the same design as the 14k Rose gold plated version. Design possibilities are endless with the 50cm long chain featuring two openable styling connectors with grooved surfaces and twelve links between each styling connector and the small carabiner clasp.

Remove links to wear the Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace as a choker, or switch around the middle 12 link chain to create a Y necklace! Once you have decided the necklace can be decorated with mini dangles on the openable styling connectors and Pandora ME medallions on any link or connector.

The Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace separates into five elements. One chain with the carabiner clasp attached, two ordinary chains (one long and one short) and two openable connectors.

The necklaces from the relaunched Pandora ME Collection offer so much styling potential. Style it the 1, 2, 3 Pandora ME way and create your own individual look and then mix it up again!

One, layer up the chunky chains for a chic contemporary style! I love the Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399590C00) and Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399685C00) layered with the 14k Rose gold-plated Link Chain Necklace (389685C00) for a cool two tone look.

Two, take out some of the links and swap with one of the new Pandora ME bracelets! I removed links in the Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399590C00) and added the pearl section of the Pandora ME Freshwater Cultured Pearl Bracelet to create my own version of the pearl Pandora ME necklace.

Three, mix with other Pandora jewellery and create your own special moment! I removed the short chain at the front of the 14k Rose Gold-plated Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (389685C00) and used one of the openable styling links to attach the 14k Rose gold-plated Pandora Moments Medium O Pendant (388256). Then I decorated the O Pendant with the pretty Openwork Pink Daisy Flower (788772C01) and Pink Daisy Flower (788775C01) charms and two Pink Peach Blossom Flower (788111ENMX) spacer charms. Finally I used the second openable styling link to hang the stunning Pandora ME Burning Wings Medallion (789672C01) from the O Pendant.

1, 2, 3, Pandora ME! My fourth styling is a unique styling combining the Pandora ME Link Chain Necklace (399685C00) with Pandora ME rings. I removed the short chain from the front of the necklace and used the two openable styling links to attach the Pandora ME Laser Green Ring (199655C03) and Pandora ME Shocking Purple Ring (199655C01). Two Pandora ME Styling Ring Connectors (199680C00) link to the silver Pandora ME Ring (199591C00) in the centre, creating a trinity of rings! Finally the Pandora ME The Eye Medallion (799668C01) hangs from the silver ring to complete the look. I love how the laser green and shocking purple enamel matches with the colours on the medallion.

My verdict on the Pandora ME Link Chain Necklaces?
