When choosing what to wear to an occasion, your choice of jewelry is just as important as the outfit itself. Jewelry can transform any outfit, enhance your beauty, and enable you to express yourself in different ways. Jewelry comes in a range of shapes, colors, and sizes, and all have an important role in fashion. Whether it is for a day at work, a first date, or a night out on the town, jewelry can make all the difference. Here are some top tips for choosing the right jewelry.
1. Color co-ordinate your jewelry
With any outfit, you must color coordinate with all features, including the clothes, shoes, bags, skin tone, and eye color. It may seem like a lot, but when you understand what jewelry and colors match, complement each other, and clash, it will become much easier when accessorizing your outfits. You can also make sure that you include jewelry with your favorite colors. Reds tend to go better with silver and yellow gold jewelry, blues go well with silver, yellow gold, and pearls, green goes well with silver, yellow gold, and white gold, pink goes well with yellow gold and white gold, while white, gray and blacks tend to go well with any color. Warmer skin tones go well with warm reds, greens, browns, and yellows. Cool skin tones tend to be the opposite, such as pinks, deep purples, and blues.
2. Make sure each piece sits well with your outfit
It’s not only the color you need to think about, but also the style. While layering fashion and jewelry is very trendy at the moment, it is extremely risky if you are unsure of how to pair items together. Some outfits go best with smaller, classic jewelry while others go well with big and bold pieces. For example, colorful, chunky statement piece jewelry is best paired with outfits that have less color and patterns to them, or if you are feeling brave, then you can pair it with a smaller patterned piece. For a more casual look, you may choose to have simple necklaces, earrings, and rings. Head to your local jewelry store to find what calls out to you.
3. Express yourself
Finding a balance is key. While it is important to find pieces of jewelry that style and color well with your outfit, it is also important to wear the jewelry that speaks to you, enables you to express yourself, and personalizes your outfit. Have some fun with different pieces, and while taking into consideration the tips above, see what you can mismatch and pair well together, as you may be pleasantly surprised. Items of jewelry are always coming back into style, so even if your preferred style is something from the ’70s, then you should go for it, you never know what trends might come back, or which new ones you may inspire.
Jewelry can enhance your beauty and transform your outfit, but it should also make you feel good and confident with what you’re wearing. Have a play with different styles until you find the ones you like.
