How can you use a limited jewellery collection and avoid boredom - as if anyone could honestly be bored with fine jewellery! We are looking here at some solutions that are not immediately obvious. Here are our top 5 jewellery style tips to make sure that you look your best and always stylish!
Is this your story? You feel that you're not making the most of your jewellery collection, no matter how many pieces you own. What's worse, you have jewellery that never seems to get a day in the sun!
Perhaps more often true - do you lack the confidence to decide which pieces work for each occasion, so you stick with the familiar?
Whatever is the case, you're not alone!
We have had a brainstorm here in the office to come up with ways to help you get the most out of your jewellery collection. We wanted to help you blend your costume, fashion and fine jewellery with your sense of style.
Go For A Layered Look With Bangles, Necklaces and Rings
Layering is always fun. You can experiment with contrasting shapes, textures, lengths and colours. Use your bracelets, bangles, rings, necklaces; even your earrings can be part of the game.
Necklaces are an obvious target for layering with their range of lengths. A selection of differing lengths of necklaces will draw people's eyes up toward your face. Don't stick to one colour. Mix different metal colours - silver, yellow gold, rose gold. Look at textures. Mix and match delicate chains with chunky, heavier links. Rings are an excellent choice for layering. They can be stacked in all sorts of combinations, running the variety over several fingers. Have a dance party on your arms with your collection of bracelets and bangles. Don't be too afraid of the delicate jangle of metal on metal and embrace the flash of reflected light!

If you have more than one ear piercing, you can even try to mix and match your earrings. Perhaps a solitaire with a pendant on each ear, experiment with hoops.
Layering is easy to do. Gather up the contents of your jewellery box and start the process of mixing and matching.
Important! Record the successful experiments so that you can return to combinations that work. There's no need for last-minute experiments that just don't work out!
The First Rule Of Good Taste: Always Know When Enough Is Enough!
You've seen it on other women. Sometimes they've just got too much, gone too far. Don't be that person!
Think about what you're trying to achieve. If you're wearing several bangles and bracelets and you're featuring your arms and wrists, then don't try to use necklaces to draw attention to your face at the same time. Tell only one story at a time.
Likewise, it might be good to dial back the earring situation if you wear an attention-grabbing necklace. Of course, every rule has exceptions. Sometimes, a chunky necklace can work very well with a bold pair of earrings - but not always, not every combination.

Try an experiment when you have a complete set of jewellery items; perhaps there's some layering going on. Before you leave the house, check yourself in the mirror and remove just one thing. Just one. Often, that item removed makes the ensemble perfect.
Check Your Earring Game!
Earrings are easily taken for granted, but that's always a mistake. Everybody sees your earrings. Anyone who talks to you is going to see them, right in their line of sight. They are too important to ignore. If your hair is long, choose a colour that contrasts with your hair colour, making the jewellery visible.
Look out for earrings that frame your face that complement your skin or eye colour.
Don't be that woman who never changes her earrings! We've all done it, but please don't fall into the trap of wearing the same pair of earrings day in day out. Ring the changes. Let your earrings match your mood and the occasion.
Ringing the changes with your earrings will add style to your daily look. People notice details. They'll notice your efforts. And, a significant benefit of changing your earrings - you get a chance to clean them. Keep them pristine, sparkling clean.
You can play a subtle game of earring style. Just alternate several sets of stud earrings, or maybe go large and use pendants and hoops to add some movement, flash and sparkle to your face and outfits.
Try Modern Alchemy - Mix Up Your Metals
Only a few years ago, mixing metals was a fashion faux pas, seen as trashy - but all those haters were wrong.
The fashion police have been given new instructions—no more fines for mixed metals. The days of wearing only yellow gold or silver are over. But there are still some guidelines (let's not call them rules) to follow.
Of course, you can choose items of a different colour. A rose gold necklace stacked with a silver one. The same goes for stacked rings, maybe several colours on one finger or perhaps spread across both hands. But you can be more granular than that if you choose. How about a pendant that contrasts with the chain on which it is suspended?
Not Just Precious Metals – It's About Gemstones Too
We have concentrated on the metals in your jewellery. The same ideas apply to the gemstones in your jewellery.
Try mixing solitaires with cluster pieces.
Look at the colours. How would a pink sapphire pendant match with a yellow gold chain? What about a blue sapphire ring on one finger with an amber ring on another?
How can you manage texture and size across your entire look? It is much the same as with metals. Of course, our jewellery is very often already has gemstones, even if it is costume jewellery. So, consideration of the gems is part of the entire process. But that does not mean you cannot let the gemstones, the diamonds, rubies, emeralds and sapphires take centre stage because, of course, that's where they should be.
The precious metal settings, the textures of the metal, the design details of the settings all have just one function – to make the gemstones look as good as they possibly can.
Because no jewellery collection is ever complete, because there is always something new to be added, a gap to be filled, take a look at our collections of fine diamond jewellery. We are sure that you will see something, perhaps several that inspire you, give you ideas about how to wear what you already have. You will find something to make your upgraded jewellery style game just that little more perfect!
