If you love fashion, chances are you love accessories and jewelry too. Whether you have closets stuffed with the latest fashions or you work with a well-curated capsule wardrobe, how you assemble the finishing touches to your outfits will make or break the look you want to achieve.  

A good range of accessories includes scarves, belts, hats and a varied jewelry collection with a watch or two that can be mixed and matched to coordinate with a wide range of everyday outfits. Jewelry and watches should be a mix of everyday pieces,  timeless pieces, classic, inobtrusive and statement pieces. 

A jewelry box might contain diamond studs, hoop earrings, layered necklaces, cocktail rings, gold bracelets, pearl necklaces and the trick is to find tips and tricks that help you to wear them in such a way that emphasizes and celebrates your personal style.

Whether you are wearing classic pieces, everyday pieces or just a combination of your very favorite pieces,  experts can teach you how to best show off your touch of sparkle. So, here are some essential tips for getting the maximum impact when styling pieces of jewelry and watches for everyday wear.

How To Style Everyday Jewelry Pieces

Layering Necklaces 

 

 

Layering delicate necklaces of varying lengths is a popular trend. Start with a choker or short pendant and gradually add longer necklaces to create an elegant and personalized style. Consider mixing textures and pendants for added dimension.

Mix and Match Metals

Experiment with different metal tones like gold, white gold or silver, and rose gold to create a layered and versatile look. Don't be afraid to combine pieces with various metal finishes for a unique, eclectic style.

Balance Statement & Minimalist Pieces

Achieve a balanced look by mixing statement pieces with more delicate, everyday jewelry. For instance, pair a chunky cocktail ring with simple stud earrings for a harmonious contrast.

Ear Stack Elegance 

 

 

If you have multiple ear piercings, create an ear stack with small hoops, studs, and cuffs. Experiment with asymmetry by mixing and matching earrings on each ear or opt for a cohesive look with a single theme, such as all hoops or all studs.

Personalize with Charms

Add a touch of sentimentality by incorporating charms or pendants that hold personal significance. Whether it's a birthstone, initial, or symbol that represents something special to you, these pieces can make your everyday jewelry truly unique.

How To Style A Watch

Consider Your Style 

 

 

Choose a wristwatch that complements your personal style. If you prefer a classic look, opt for a timeless design with a leather or metal band. For a more casual or sporty vibe, a watch with a rubber or nylon strap might be a better fit.

Match Metals

Coordinate the metal of your watch with other jewelry you plan to wear. If you typically wear silver jewelry, go for a watch with a silver or stainless steel case and band. If you prefer gold accessories, choose a watch with a gold-tone finish.

Size Matters

Pay attention to the size of the watch face and strap. A larger watch face can make a bold statement, while a smaller, more dainty watch is often considered elegant and feminine. Make sure the watch's size is proportionate to your wrist for a balanced look. 

Dress for the Occasion 

 

 

Select a watch that suits the occasion. A sleek, minimalist watch is perfect for a formal event, while a colorful or patterned strap watch can add a fun touch to a casual outfit. If you want versatility, invest in a watch with interchangeable bands.

Layer with Bracelets

Consider pairing your wristwatch with bracelets or bangles. Stack bracelets on the same wrist as your watch to create a stylish arm party. Mix and match different materials and textures to add depth to your look, but avoid overloading your wrist to keep it comfortable and stylish.
