5 Jewelry Styling Ideas You Need to Try Now
Level up your OOTDs with these exclusive stylist tricks for jewelry!
1. Try Color Blocking
Hear us out. There are several reasons why this is a good idea: Wearing gemstone jewelry in hues that contrast your outfit is guaranteed to make it pop and grab all the eyeballs. Plus, bright colors equate with happy mood and, therefore, a happy you. A total win-win, isn’t it?
If you’re new to color blocking, remember you want to pick complementary colors (lying at opposite places on the color wheel) to get a popping contrast. Think pairing red and green, yellow and purple, yellow and blue, orange and blue, pink and green, etc. Experiment with your clothing and jewels in different colors if you’re up for making bold fashion choices. But if you want to play it safe, you can wear a head-to-toe monotone ‘fit and then team it with accessories in contrasting colors.

2. Mix Up Your Gems
Just like there are no rules when it comes to mixing metals, there are no rules when it comes to wearing different gemstones together, especially when it comes to stacking your rings. In fact, if you have a gemstone engagement ring, we encourage it!
Our only tip? Limit yourself to 3 colored gemstones to prevent yourself from going overboard. However, don’t stop yourself from adding more thin metal rings or plain stackable bands to the mix if you want. You can also add gemstone rings in different shapes and sizes to give your stack an unexpected dimension.
Whatever gemstones you choose, they’re guaranteed to give you that forever-desired summery vibe.

You can team your LBDs with gemstones like sapphires, rubies, emeralds and pearls for a timeless, elegant look. Alternately, you can pair them with amethysts, aquamarines, opals and pink sapphires for a fun and flirty look.

5. Elevate Everyday With Pearls
Thanks to the pearlcore movement and trending period dramas, pearls have made their way back into our day-to-day looks rather than staying reserved for fancy events.
So, whether you want to add a dose of glam to your weekend coffee runs or style your OOTD for a casual brunch, you can definitely use some pearl jewelry styling ideas for every occasion.
Remember, a single- or double-strand pearl necklace or a pair of pearl studs are fail-safe classics apt for any moment. But if you want something more amenable to daily wear, go for pearl rings, bracelets or station-style necklaces. And of course, you can layer them with your diamond or gemstone pieces to look on-trend.
