You could be wearing a white top and blue jeans, which is nothing special; however, the second you add a chunky hoop, rings and a layered necklace? Suddenly, your basic outfit looks 10 times better and not so basic anymore.
Bold jewelry is one of those trends that will never go out of style; it just shapeshifts. It can go from maximalist necklaces and earrings to sculptural and big, gold pieces that make an art statement. But, what exactly is the goal? To learn how to accentuate your outfit. If there is anything fashion loves right now, it is personality. Therefore, if you learn how to show your personality with the clothes you wear and how you style rhythm with your jewelry, purses and more, you will be the art.
It’s not about blending in and calling it a day; it’s about standing out in the most unique way possible. Big jewelry automatically demands attention, almost speaking before you do. They are like your outfit’s hype squad! Picture this: you don’t have to spend tons of money to pull it off. Let’s say you are wearing a sweatshirt and biker shorts; toss a thick vintage necklace in, pair it with drop earrings and two or three rings. BOOM. Just by picturing it, you’ve obtained the “off-duty model” look.
Jeweled Style
It’s one of the easiest ways to experiment with your style without fully committing. That is why it is important to have multiple pieces of jewelry, so you can mix pieces around and have tons of options to play with. At the end of the day, you know what fits you and your essence best.
You can have an edgy or a coquette-core style; despite this, let’s not forget that bold doesn’t always have to mean big. Just think asymmetry, color, texture. Even charm bracelets from the early 2000s can make it if you know how to style them; let’s not exclude certain jewelry pieces. Bold jewelry is flirty and kind of rebellious.
New Jewelry, New Look
So let’s get to the point: how do you style it? If your jewelry is doing the most, remember to keep your clothes simple, unless you disagree. The beauty of it is self-expression; therefore, you don’t need to follow a specific kind of rule, just your own and what you feel the most comfortable with.
Overall, if you’re bored of your outfits, you don’t have to buy a whole new wardrobe; experiment with what you have. Start shiny and bold. Sometimes all you need is a really good piece of jewelry to show the world and yourself that you’ve got taste—and you’re not afraid to show it.
