Memi Name Necklace:

Memi aims to create elegant jewellery pieces which celebrate your unique character and authentic style. The Memi name necklaces are the best way to be loud and proud about your individuality, heritage, and life story. You know how amazing you are, now show the world with your Memi name necklace.

Personalise your Name Necklace:

We want you to look at your Memi name necklace and smile brightly at this symbolic extension of who you are. This is why we love to incorporate you into the designing process. Let your creativity take control as you easily personalise any Memi name necklace.

1. Choose the Name: Memi name necklaces are all about showcasing your distinctive identity through embracing the power and value in your name. You can create a truly personalised necklace through the name you choose to use. You can keep it simple by just choosing your name, or you can showcase your heritage by choosing your surname, or you can demonstrate a personal aspect about yourself by choosing a nickname you go by.


2. Chose the Metal: The Memi name necklaces are available in yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, and sterling silver. You can personalise any of the Memi name necklaces by choosing the metal which best suits your personality and skin tone.


3. Chose the Style: Memi has a wide range of beautiful styles to choose from for the design of your Memi name necklace. The different font styles available are Classic, Initial, Mini, and Bold. You are also able to choose between different languages, such as Hebrew, Arabic, or a combination of English and either Hebrew or Arabic. With all the style varieties, Memi makes it easy for you to personalise your name necklaces.



4. Adjust the Length: All Memi name necklaces come with an adjustable clasp. This means that you can change the length of your necklace to suit any outfit, occasion, or selfie. This allows your Memi name necklace to become not just a necklace you wear to events, but a necklace that is an everyday staple.


Flaunt It:

Do you ever find yourself scrolling through social media and seeing an endless stream of flawless selfies? Then you grab your phone, take a snap (or a couple, because you always need options), and feel disheartened? Snapping a selfie is easy, but snapping the perfect selfie requires a bit more work. Learn how to take your selfies to the next level with these easy tips!

Strike a Pose:

Do not get us wrong, we still love the classic pouted lip selfie with a peace sign thrown in there for good measure. We have listed some fresh and fierce poses which will easily demonstrate your powerful individuality and are perfectly suited to showing off those beautiful Memi name necklaces.

1. Hand to Head: This pose is a great way to make your selfie look effortless. Lightly place your hand against your head, playing around with different positions, and allow your viewers to stop and stare.

2. Hand to Jaw: Play around with your selfies by placing your hand gently against your chin. This pose allows your hands to frame your face and make your selfie seem as if you quickly got the perfect snap (we will not say anything about the hundreds of photos on your camera roll if you do not).

3. Flick the Hair: Gently flick your hair away from your face as you take the shot to get your hair moving in action or have your hand poised mid hair toss to draw attention to your facial features. This pose adds movement to your selfie making it appear dynamic.

Get that Glow:

We all know that lighting plays an important part in snapping that perfect selfie. You want your face and Memi name necklace to be the star of the show, not hiding underneath unflattering shadows. Take your selfie from drab to fab with these different types of lighting.

1. Golden Rays: Get yourself outside or in front of a window and snap away as your face lights up under the natural light of the sun. The golden rays of a setting sun paired with a yellow gold name necklace will give your selfie overall warmer tones and allow your skin to glow.

2. LED Ring Light: If you are no novice to taking great selfies and are looking to take your lighting to the next level, then try out a LED Selfie Ring Light. The ring light spreads an even light across your face removing shadows, which often result in distortions of your facial features and ruin a great selfie. Plus, this is a great way to ensure you can always capture your stylish selfie no matter the weather.

3. Bright Lights: Whether it is the iridescent sheen of neon lights or the dazzle of a lively city at night, play around with different lighting types and colours to create unique and moody selfies. Just no fluorescent lighting unless you are aiming for a public-bathroom-themed selfie.

The Perfect Backdrop:

Curating the perfect backdrop can do wonders when it comes to capturing a selfie that is as unique and awesome as you are! There is always the white wall to fall back on, but let your imagination take the reigns when it comes to choosing what to pose in front of! We have a few suggestions listed paired with the ideal Memi name necklaces.

1. Textured Walls: Whether it is a wallpapered wall, a wooden wall, or a tiled wall, it is easy to find a wall with some form of texture to create an element of interest in your selfie. We are loving the pairing of an industrial-looking wall, such as raw concrete or brick, with the dainty Memi Mini name necklace to create a powerful and feminine tone to your selfie.



2. Flowery Fields: Take a walk around your neighbourhood to discover that there is a magnitude of ways to create a selfie with a natural backdrop. Find some luscious grass, a field of wildflowers, or some freshly fallen leaves to lay upon and take your selfie! To echo this natural themed backdrop, we suggest the Memi Your Handwriting name necklace to continue the authenticity of the selfie.

3. Up in the Clouds: As singer 24kgoldn rightly states, “everything looks better with a view”. Go on a hike or climb a hill and find a backdrop that extends as far as the eye can see to give your selfie that extra wow factor. Choose the Memi Bold name necklace to perfectly capture that bright and expansive space behind you.

Oh, High There:

When you are getting ready to take your selfie, play around by holding your phone at different angles. Photographers often use angles to create emotive impressions in their images. We have listed three easy-to-do angles paired with the overall theme they create in your selfie.

1. Down Low: Hold your phone lower down and take a selfie from what is known as a “worm’s-eye view”. This angle will give your selfie a powerful tone, which we love to see.

2. Straight On: Hold your phone at eye level and capture your entire face in this selfie angle. This type of selfie is direct and fresh.

3. Up High: Hold your phone high above your head in an angle known as the “bird’s-eye view” and snap a selfie that makes you look smaller and accentuates your facial features.

Up Close and Personal:

Holding your phone at different distances from your face can create different effects in your selfie. Experiment with these positions combined with different angles to capture that perfect selfie!

1. Extreme Close-Up: Bring your phone close to your face and select a section of your face you want to showcase. This can either be your favourite facial feature or your Memi name necklace hanging elegantly on your neck. The extreme close-up gives your selfie an intimate and personal effect.

2. Full Face: Hold your phone at a distance that allows your entire face to fill the screen. This position is what a true selfie is all about as the only focus is on you. Create a selfie that makes you appear friendly and engaging with your viewers.

3. Face and Background: Extend your arm to a full reach and snap away! This position incorporates elements of your background which is ideal if you are wanting to show off where you are.

Other Tips:

1. Make-Up: Social media is ablaze with make-up tutorials ranging from natural every-day looks to Van Gogh’s The Starry Night replicas on people’s cheeks. Let your creativity run wild with eyeshadow, and do not forget to take a selfie of that large lip-glossed smile!

2. Have Fun: Bring in some props, incorporate contrasting colours, or just stick out your tongue and cross your eyes. Whichever way you do it, bring in a spark of laughter and lightness into a selfie to show off your goofy side.

3. Mirror: Mirrors are great for snapping a quick shot in, but the last thing we want to see in the reflection is your unmade bed and dirty socks all over the floor. If you are taking a selfie in your bedroom, make sure your mom sees that all those years of moaning at you to tidy your room have paid off.

4. Keep it Clean: The Memi name necklaces are made with only the best quality metals, stunning Swarovski crystals, and genuine diamonds. Allow your Memi name necklace to shine to its full potential in your selfie by keeping it clean and polished.

5. Authentic: Keep it light, keep it unique, and keep it in line with your personality. The Memi name necklaces are aimed at celebrating how you are one-of-a-kind, so keep this trend going in your selfies.
