I am OK with it, but I like tongue-twisters. Note that "round" in this sense is rare in US English. We use "around".

Hi Tom,

I'm not sure what it would look like if a necklace was the wrong way (a)round.

Assume a necklace consists of a big diamond on a chain.

If she wore it wrong way (a)round, where would the diamond be?
