Share
Jewellery is a fun and beautiful way to show your style. From shiny earrings to pretty bracelets, what you wear can help tell the world who you are. But with so many types of fashion and jewellery out there, how do you choose the right one?
Don’t worry—we’re here to help! This guide will show you how to pick the perfect jewellery for your fashion style. Whether you like simple clothes or bold patterns, there's jewellery out there just for you.
Understanding Fashion Styles and the Jewellery That Goes with Them
Everyone has their own style. Some people like bright colours and bold clothes. Others prefer soft colours and simple outfits. Your fashion style helps you decide what kind of jewellery fits you best.
-
Boho (Bohemian) style loves nature. If you like this look, try jewellery made with shells, feathers, beads, or natural stones. Layered necklaces and stacked rings look great too.
-
Classic style is neat and tidy. Think about wearing pearls, small gold hoops, or a thin silver chain. These pieces never go out of fashion and always look elegant.
-
Minimalist style is simple. One or two small pieces are best. Try wearing a small silver bracelet or a plain gold ring.
-
Trendy or modern style is cool and current. Try bold earrings, geometric shapes, or jewellery in bright colours and unique materials.
-
Glamorous style is fancy and sparkly. Go for big earrings with gems, shiny bangles, or necklaces with glitter and shimmer.
Tip: Look at your clothes and think, “What kind of jewellery would make this outfit even better?” That’s the best place to start!
Statement vs. Simple: Choosing the Right Size and Style
Some jewellery pieces are big and bold. These are called statement pieces. They stand out and get lots of attention. Others are small and quiet—these are simple or subtle pieces.
Both are great, but you shouldn’t wear too many big pieces at once. Here’s how to balance them:
-
If your outfit is busy with lots of colour or design, wear small jewellery.
-
If your outfit is plain, you can wear one big piece—like a chunky necklace or big earrings—to make it pop.
Example: If you wear a bright red dress, try small gold studs. If you wear a white t-shirt and jeans, add a big necklace to make the outfit more fun.
Picking the Right Metals and Stones
Jewellery is made from many materials. Some are shiny, some are colourful, and some are very fancy. Let’s break it down:
-
Gold is warm and yellow. It looks nice on warm skin tones.
-
Silver is cool and shiny. It works well with cooler skin tones.
-
Platinum is like silver, but more expensive and stronger.
-
Gemstones like diamonds, sapphires, or birthstones add sparkle and colour.
Some people’s skin can get itchy if they wear certain metals. If this happens to you, choose hypoallergenic jewellery. These are special pieces made to be gentle on your skin.
Tip: Pick jewellery that feels good on your skin and suits your favourite colours and clothes.
How to Layer and Stack Jewellery Like a Pro
Wearing one necklace is nice. Wearing two or three that go together? That’s called layering, and it looks great when done right!
-
Start with a short necklace (like a choker).
-
Add a medium one (with a charm or pendant).
-
Then wear a longer one (like a chain that reaches your chest).
You can do the same with bracelets (called stacking) or rings. Mix thick and thin pieces. Try different textures—like shiny metal with beads or leather.
Don’t wear too many big pieces at once. It’s best to mix small and large items to keep the look balanced.
Tip: If you’re not sure what goes together, stick to the same metal—like all gold or all silver—and add just one colourful item.
Matching Your Jewellery to the Occasion
Where you're going and what you're doing makes a big difference in the jewellery you should wear.
-
For school or work: Keep it simple. Stud earrings or a thin chain necklace are perfect.
-
For a party: Add sparkle! Try hoop earrings, bangles, or a shiny pendant.
-
For weddings or special days: Wear something elegant, like pearls or a gemstone bracelet.
-
For play or casual days: Try fun pieces with bright colours or shapes like hearts or stars.
Tip: Always take off your jewellery before swimming, sports, or bedtime to keep it safe and shiny.
