Magnetic securing device assemblies and methods for securing a garment away from a breast. The magnetic securing device assembly includes a first and second magnetic element. At least one of the first and second magnetic elements is attached to a cord which is used to carry the magnetic securing device assembly as an ornamental piece of jewelry. In use, the magnetic securing device assembly is positioned around a lifted garment of the wearer. The first magnetic element is separated from the second magnetic element attached to the cord. The first magnetic element is then positioned on an opposite side of the garment, and in alignment with the position of the second magnetic element. The first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are then magnetically fastened to each other so that the garment is securely held away from the breast.
