While keeping up with the latest trends can be fun and make us feel good sometimes, everybody knows that fashions eventually change. By chasing trends we end up with items we may never wear again, but we need more space to replace them with the next items that come into fashion.
This is true for many things that we wear, including jewellery. But there are also some classic items which have stood the test of time. This article will reveal these versatile and timeless items and explore how to incorporate them into a fresh and modern look.
1. Pearls:
Class and elegance tend to be the words that come to mind when people think about pearls. These bright white gems have fascinated people for thousands of years, and that is no less true today. Pearl jewellers typically offer a range of options, including bracelets, necklaces, and earrings which help make any outfit look sophisticated.
Pearls are extremely versatile and can be a part of almost any outfit. For a modern look, instead of the classic pearl necklace which has a strand with many pearls, opt for something that mixes pearls with other materials, such as silver.
2. Hoop earrings:
Another must-have accessory with endless versatility, a good pair of gold or silver hoop earrings can upgrade any outfit. They have to be styled well, though. Otherwise, they can come off as trashy.
To make them look good, match your other jewellery to them. If you are wearing big, thick hoops, wear a minimum of other jewellery. If you are choosing small or thin hoops, keep your other jewellery slender too.
3. Chain necklace:
A classic design that should be a staple of every wardrobe, a simple chain necklace can be worn every day in a way that can be edgy or elegant.
A popular modern look is to use the necklace for “power dressing.” That is basically adding a bold or chunky chain to an otherwise neutral or formal outfit. They are also great for layering on top of one another, as long as you go for several different lengths. Or, you can personalise them with pendants or medallions.
4. Diamond solitaire:
Single diamond pieces do not only come in the form of engagement rings. They can be earrings, necklaces, or other types of ring, and what they all have in common is that they are a subtle and understated way to elevate your look.
The consensus today is that diamonds can be worn every day. They are no longer reserved for special occasions. One fresh way to style them is by layering a solitaire pendant on top of gold or silver chains, and you can create a similar effect with a diamond bracelet too.
It is okay to buy jewellery that is trendy sometimes, but you can be more certain that you are making a good investment by sticking to classic styles. We can be more confident about things which all kinds of different people have agreed on over many years.
For example, the history of wearing and growing pearls stretches all the way back to ancient times. People have found them beautiful across all of that time, so it is reasonable to think that people will continue to do so.
