If there’s one colour that’s dominating this season, it’s baby blue. It’s on the runways, stealing the spotlight on the red carpet and making waves in jewellery—specifically in the form of aquamarine, the ultimate spring gemstone. Soft yet striking, fresh yet timeless, this dreamy blue beauty is more than just a pretty colour. As the March birthstone, it’s linked to clarity, calm and new beginnings—aka the perfect post-winter refresh. And when it comes to styling? Whether you love dainty layers, bold statement pieces or a little mix of both, aquamarine plays well with everything. Here’s how to wear it your way.
4 Easy Ways to Style Aquamarine Jewellery This Spring
1. Keep It Subtle, But Make It Chic
Minimalists, this one’s for you. Aquamarine’s delicate blue is made for everyday wear—just enough colour to catch the light, but never so much that it clashes with anything. For a laid-back yet put-together style, pairing aquamarine jewellery with neutral tones like white, beige or soft greys creates a relaxed, airy aesthetic.
A simple aquamarine pendant is classic, while tiny studs are an easy everyday staple. And slim, stackable rings add just the right amount of sparkle. Wear them solo for a clean, polished vibe or mix them into your daily rotation. Either way, it’s going to give an effortlessly put-together vibe.

2. Go Big or Go Home
Aquamarine may be soft, but don’t mistake that for subtle. When Meghan Markle stepped out in Princess Diana’s iconic aquamarine cocktail ring, it was the fashion moment. That cool blue against her crisp white gown is the definition of quiet luxury. If you want to channel that same energy, an aquamarine cocktail ring is the way to go.
If you’re not a ring person, aquamarine drop earrings bring the same level of drama, just with a little more movement. They look incredible with an off-the-shoulder dress or a slicked-back bun, giving you that old-money aesthetic.
And if you’re really leaning into the aquamarine trend, an oversized pendant is the pièce de résistance. Wear it over a breezy sundress for a look that’s equal parts laid-back and luxe.

3. Layer It Like a Pro
Why settle for one aquamarine jewellery piece when you can double (or triple) the impact? The trick to layering is all in the balance—pair two minimalistic aquamarine necklaces at different lengths to create a look that’s effortless, not overdone.
Stacking doesn’t stop at your neckline. Slip a thin aquamarine ring between your everyday bands for a subtle pop of colour, or mix dainty aquamarine bracelets for a wrist stack that feels fresh and put-together.

4. Play with Colour
Soft blues and spring shades are a match made in heaven and aquamarine is proof. Its airy, tranquil hue plays beautifully such as morganite, amethyst and peridot for a delicate, dreamy aesthetic.
But if pastels feel a little too predictable, just look at the way it pairs with sapphires. The cool tones of aquamarine meeting the deep blues of sapphire—it’s the kind of tonal layering that spells luxury. And if you want something bolder, emeralds are the perfect partner.
And for those who prefer a more understated approach, pairing aquamarine with neutral gemstones like opals or diamonds keeps things crisp and classic.
