Look Fashionable in Mix ‘n’ Match Jewelry

Jewelry is inspiration and a way of expression. The right kind of jewelry can add to the beauty of any outfit. Mix and match jewelry can offer you unique options and each time you can wear a different look.

Here are some tips on how to mix and match jewelry to make a fashion statement.

Mix Metals

The best style is to select one metal to avoid appearing cluttered. You can pair two-toned jewelry with jewelry pieces of either a single metal or that have the same combination of metals in the correct proportions. If the jewelry has different hues of brass or bronze then you can play with the metals that match these shades. There should be a pattern that needs to be followed when mixing metals. Instead of stacking gold and silver bangles alternatively, you can wear them in sets of two or three bangles for a more elegant look. We find jewelry in a variety of precious metals like gold, platinum, silver, etc. For some fun and those who are the adventurous kind, try mixing all types of metals to make a fashion statement.

Color Matters

An easy way to mix and match jewelry is to do it based on the color. Color plays a major role in how the jewelry pieces coordinate. Also the skin tone of a person needs to be considered when selecting the colors. The key is to balance bold colors with lighter complementary colors. For example, red and turquoise jewelry look great together. Black and silver jewelry go well with any color jewelry so make sure you own some pieces in these two colors.

Layering

Layering is the current trend. It is a way of expressing one’s unique sense of style. The personalized look that one can create with this style is making it a popular option. You can layer bracelets and necklaces. But it can be a little hard to get the look right. Avoid wearing too many bulky jewelry pieces that can make you appear overdone.

When it comes to necklaces, if you are wearing a statement necklace, then pair it with dainty chains. You can also layer necklaces of varying lengths that have similar design and style.

Layering bracelets is also a cool way to accessorize your arm. Gold bracelets look great when worn with complimenting silver bracelets.

When layering jewelry, you want the focus to be on the jewelry so avoid wearing outfits in vivid colors and bold prints that can offset the look. Wear outfits in solid materials that highlight your layered jewelry.

Less Is More

The rule is to keep it simple. You don’t want to look as if you are asking for attention. If you are wearing a heavy necklace avoid those bold earrings that can outshine the necklace. Instead pair your statement necklace with simple rings that will add to the beauty. Heavy and flashy jewelry with loud clothes can make you look awkward. When it comes to mixing and matching jewelry, less is more.

Consider Your Personality

When selecting jewelry make sure that it suits your body type. An average sized woman will look good with heavy jewelry that go well with her physical features. Whereas a petite woman must keep away from big accessories and go for the delicate and simple designs that will accentuate her features.
