This Jewellery Styling Guide includes our best tips for making jewellery styling easy! Learn how to layer and mix your jewellery collection to look your best.
1 – Make sure your jewellery & clothing compliment each other.
First decide on the focus – do you want to wear a specific piece of jewellery OR do your clothes need to reflect your plans for the day? Once you have decided the focus plan your style according.
Top tip for necklaces is to match them to the neckline of your clothes.
2 – Create layers with rings, necklaces & bracelets!
Experiment with contrasting lengths, shapes and colours to make appealing layers.
Simply gather together a collection of your jewellery pieces of different metals, textures and designs and try them on in different combinations to see what works.
3 – Decide the focal point of your jewellery!
If you want to catch the eye you can focus on one area. To not take the attention away the rest of your jewellery should stay more minimal or should compliment your statement pieces.

4 – Know when to stop!
What do you want to show off? Decide this before you plan your styling!
For example bold earrings may need to be paired back with simple necklaces. Delicate rings look good when worn as a jewellery set matched back with a bracelet.

5 – Remember to change your earrings!
We are also guilty of this and wearing the same earrings day in and out.
As your ears are always in the eyeline of those you meet use them as a canvas to show off your fantastic earring collection. It also gives you a chance to clean up those ever faithful everyday earrings.
We have a wide range of silver & gold plated earrings for you to choice from.
Earrings are also a subtle way to change your look – a simple work outfit paired with statement hoops can change your look from subtle to stylish.
6 – Mix your metals.
You can either buy pieces made from 2 different metals or you can mix metals across different pieces.
The main tip to remember when mixing metals is to blend them. For example wear different metal across your earrings, necklaces and rings and don’t separate the metals to different areas.
Our hammered metal jewellery is perfect for mixing and adding subtle shimmer to your look.
7 – Don’t feel pressure to follow trends
You can use trends to inspire your jewellery styling but don’t follow them tirelessly. Jewellery should be an extension of your style and is there to make you feel confident and beautiful!
Instead experiment with trends to evolve your own style. Always think about what jewellery suits your colouring, face shape and style.
