Some people think that jewelry is something reserved only for big luxurious events.
Let me tell you, though, that this is old news! Jewelry can and should be worn anytime you feel like doing so.
If you choose well, your jewelry will reflect your personality and your character. Wearing Jewelry is also a great way to boost your self-confidence and elevate your look.
Ok, so, bracelets, necklaces, earrings… There are so many options. Are there rules? Are there some pieces I should not wear on some occasions?
Well, you can wear whatever you want, that’s for sure. But there are some things you should take into consideration, such as your routine, the places you go to on a daily basis, the people you’re going to meet, and so on.
So… what should you consider before wearing jewelry?
1. Choose your mood
Even though jewelry is not something that you wear only on formal occasions anymore, there are certainly some pieces that are a better match for a casual lunch with friends than for work.
So, first of all, consider the context
Where are you going? What’s the context of the occasion? Does it allow for something more extravagant, or should you tone it down a little bit?
Depending on your work environment, discreet pieces might be more advisable. On the other hand, if you’re going to a gathering with your friends, you don’t have to worry about being too out there.
2. Sometimes less is more
Don’t overdo it. Just because you have a jewelry box full of beautiful pieces, it doesn’t mean you have to wear them all at the same time. The great thing about having lots of options is wearing something different every day!
It’s also a nice way to have fun matching the same pieces with different outfits and seeing how they can completely change the mood of your look.
3. Match your personality
Sometimes you might look at a friend, a coworker, or even a celebrity and find their style gorgeous. But then, when you try it yourself, you don’t think it reflects who you are, and that’s ok.
If you’re just feeling insecure because you’re not used to wearing jewelry, or wearing a specific piece you just got, go slow. Try it with different outfits and in different contexts until you feel comfortable.
But if you truly don’t think that beautiful necklace is not your style, no problem, just go with what fancies you.
4. Timeless pieces never go out of style
Of course, there are some jewelry trends that are to die for and the pieces are on your wishlist.
That’s totally ok, get them and wear them proudly. But it’s always clever to have versatile pieces that are a perfect match for any outfit and occasion.
This way, if you want discreet, you have it, and if you want extravagant, you can just match them with other pieces of jewelry.
So, all in all, just remember that wearing jewelry is a way to let the world know who you are and how you’re feeling.
