How to Style Jewellery: 10 Easy Ways to Look Stylish

 

1. Layer Like a Pro
Let’s kick things off with a bit of fun, shall we?

Layering isn’t just for cake, it is for jewellery too. You don’t believe us? Try mixing and matching your necklaces and you will know that we are not kidding. Mix and match varying lengths, textures, and colours to create a jewellery masterpiece that’s all your own.

Start with a delicate gold chain as the base. Next, pile on a chunkier necklace. Don’t stop there! Stack on rings and bangles. Remember, the more, the merrier! Mix in some contrasting styles and colours.

Try this: throw on a dainty pendant necklace with a bold statement piece such as this.

You can also stack a sleek gold bangle with a vintage charm bracelet. It’s all about creating a look that’s as unique and fabulous as you are.

2. Sometimes, More is More
Yes, layering is great, but sometimes less is more. If you’re sporting a statement necklace, maybe leave the armful of bangles at home. As a general rule, if something is drawing attention to your face or neckline, let that be the star of the show.

However, if you’re feeling extra fabulous, who says you have to stop at just one statement piece?

3. Show Your Earrings Some Love
Earrings can be the unsung heroes of your outfit. They frame your face, catch the light, and add that perfect finishing touch. Choose earrings that complement your hair, eyes, and skin tone. If you’ve got long hair, pick something that’ll stand out rather than get lost in the tresses. Learn with us how to choose earrings that flatter.

One can never go wrong with a pair of classic stud earrings for women.

4. Mix It Up with Metals
Once upon a time, mixing gold with silver was a fashion faux pas. But that’s old news! Go ahead and blend your metals. Whether it’s a gold pendant on a silver chain or stacking rings in different hues, mixing metals adds a dynamic edge to your look. Break the rules and mix it up—your jewellery box will thank you.

If it is too much of a hassle for you, you can also try mixed metal jewellery such as this gold bangle for women which features a mix of yellow, white, and rose gold.

Match other accessories accordingly and shine on.

If you feel that certain metals complement you better than others, that is because of your skin tone. Get help with finding the best jewellery for your skin tone.

5. Match Your Jewellery to Your Outfit
You wouldn’t wear flip-flops to a black-tie event, so why mismatch your jewellery? Decide whether your outfit or your jewellery is the star of the show, and style accordingly. Going for a statement necklace? Keep the outfit simple. Want your dress to do the talking? Opt for subtle jewellery. It’s all about balance.

6. Focus, Focus, Focus
Where do you want the attention? Your neck, your ears, your hands? Choose one area to highlight with your jewellery. For instance, if you’re flaunting a bold pair of earrings, such as these beautiful gold creoles, maybe skip the necklace or wear a thin chain.

Or, if your hands are decked out in rings, let them take centre stage. It’s all about directing the gaze.

7. Experiment and Extend Your Wardrobe
Here’s a fun idea: pick a basic outfit and see how different pieces of jewellery can completely change your look. Mix, match, and play around with combinations you wouldn’t normally consider. You’ll be surprised at how versatile your wardrobe becomes when you start experimenting with jewellery.

8. Dance to Your Own Beat, Not the Trend Drum
Trends come and go, but your personal style is forever. Sure, it’s fun to dip your toes into what’s hot this season, but don’t lose sight of what makes you, well, you. Wear jewellery that suits your personality and makes you feel confident. After all, nothing’s more stylish than being yourself.

And you will shine even brighter if you choose the right jewellery according to your face shape, especially if you are looking to buy a pair of earrings or necklaces.

9. Find the Perfect Necklace for Your Neckline
Unless you’re showcasing a sentimental piece you love hiding under layers, your necklace should be like a spotlight for your outfit—always visible and perfectly enhancing your look.

Why hide such as beautiful piece?

Got a daring V-neck? Let a pendant nestle perfectly in that V, drawing eyes in the best possible way. For those high-neck or crew-neck moments, a long necklace is your best friend, effortlessly draping over the top. And for those scoop or rounded necklines, a circular necklace will fit like a charm.

10. Clean Your Jewellery, Please!
Your jewellery does so much for you; the least you can do is keep it sparkling! Regular cleaning keeps your pieces looking their best and ensures they continue to dazzle. A quick polish here, a gentle scrub there, and your jewellery will shine as brightly as the day you bought it.
