What time is it? Time to step up your jewelry game!
It is our accessory-loving duty to inform you on the sparkly essentials you need in your jewelry box. And while we encourage you to indulge in any jewel trend of the moment, we have made a list of the top 10 jewelry pieces every woman should own.
Must-haves:
1. STUDS (Gold, Silver and diamond/diamond looking)
A simple stud is essential to finish a look. A diamond stud, a domed ball, a heart, a star, a crescent etc. These little mettalic must haves are best worn when either your necklace or bracelets are making a statement. They are easy to mix and match with other earrings if you have multiple ear piercings.
2. THE GO-WITH-EVERYTHING NECKLACE
This easy to wear necklace is one you can wear all day, everyday. You can dress it up or dress it down. It adds the right amount of understated glamour to your ensemble.
3. PEARL NECKLACE
It should be neither too short or too long. Pearls have a way of making you look casual when they need to, but you can also use them to dress up. Especially if you match your pearl earrings to a string of pearls. This is almost as necessary to have as a little black dress. And the two match perfectly together by the way the contrast between black and white make those pearls pop. A pearl necklace is ideal for an interview, a graduation, and a dinner too. You can’t go wrong with one of these.
4. BANGLE BRACELETS
Bangle bracelets never seem to go out of style. Wear one alone of stacked with other bracelets. They are super easy to mix and match. They’ll make a great addition to your jewelry box because they can be worn from day to night.
5. A LONG CHAIN NECKLACE
Long necklaces are the perfect complement to tops with high necklines or generally simple outfits. They spice things up and is eye – catching without being over the top. Pair it with your favourite jeans and white t-shirt look or put this on top of a sweater. Either way you’re sure to look stunning.
6. A PAIR OF HOOPS (Gold and Silver)
Add an instant element of elegance and grace to a delicate dress or a smart blazer with a simple pair of hoop earrings to match your personal style. The ideal size is usually between 1 to 2 inches.
7. A STYLISH WATCH
Besides keeping you punctual. Watches make you look sophisticated, organised, and confident. Not to mention there are all kinds of women’s watch styles out there. personally recommend a great menswear – inspired watch, one with a slightly bigger face with either a mettalic or leather strap.
8. A RIGHT HAND RING
Since your left hand might be preoccupied with more serious jewelry (like wedding bands and engagement ring), think of your right hand as a place to play. Go for something stackable, colorful that can be easily worn on your pointer, thumb or middle finger for impact.
9. SIMPLE BRACELETS
It doesn’t hurt to add a few bracelets to your arm candy look. Some women have one or two bracelets they never take off, while others only wear them for special occasions.
10. A STATEMENT PIECE
You’re going to need a statement piece when you find the perfect outfit or when you want to switch things up. These are great for everyday outings or special events and they can really turn heads around when you wear them correctly. It could be a cocktail ring, a bold earring or an afrocentric necklace.
