Between 2018 and 2019, American spending on jewelry rose by 7%. While accessorizing has always been a fun and important part of self-expression, people are becoming more willing to make the investment in themselves so that they can look and feel their best.
If you love to accessorize, you may be wondering how to coordinate jewelry with each and every outfit in your wardrobe. That’s what we’re going to take a look at here today! Read on to learn how to coordinate necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and more with all your favorite clothing items.
Know Some Awesome Jewelry Trends
Before you can start to coordinate jewelry with your favorite outfits, you’ll need to know some of 2020’s biggest trends in accessories. This will allow you to maintain a modern and youthful appearance no matter what your true age is. Read on to learn some styles that you need to coordinate with your wardrobe!
Handmade Items
One of the biggest trends in 2020 is wearing handmade jewelry items. This is awesome for a lot of reasons.
First, handmade jewelry ensures that each piece is one-of-a-kind. This is a great way to show off your individualism since your favorite necklace or bracelet will be unlike anything that those around you have.
Handmade jewelry also tends to be of a higher quality than mass-produced accessories are. Because each piece is made with care, there’s no room for machine error or low-quality materials. This ensures durable, well-made pieces that will last you a long time.
Charm Bracelets and Necklaces
You likely remember charm bracelets from the early 2000s, and we’re happy to say that this trend has returned! You can tote a gorgeous handmade metal charm around your neck and look great doing it.
A thin chain with a tiny charm is the perfect accessory to go with any outfit because it’s subtle, small, and provides an accent to the outfit that you’re wearing. People have begun to realize that this is a great way to draw an outfit together while not being too gaudy, so you need to get in on this trend!
Asymmetry
Since asymmetrical clothing is so popular, asymmetrical jewelry has become a really common phenomenon in 2020. People have been wearing mismatched earrings, often showing off one stud and one hoop or dangling charm. Single earrings have also become popular.
If you’re wearing a dress that’s shorter on one side than the other or a blouse that has one single over-the-shoulder strap, you might want to balance things out a bit with jewelry. Consider wearing a single hoop earring or an arm full of bangle bracelets on the short or strapless side.
Consider the Occasion
The next thing that you’ll need to look into is the occasion that you’re preparing for. The jewelry that you match with a black-tie cocktail dress is much different than what you’d wear for a night out with the girls. Read on to learn some fashion jewelry tips for each occasion!
Casual Outings
For casual outings, you can wear pretty much any kind of jewelry you like. However, if you wear something featuring real stones or pearls, you may draw odd glances since those pieces don’t go with a t-shirt and jeans.
Casual jewelry includes metal earrings and charms on sterling chains. It also can include the beaded items that may be too casual for business settings. A beaded necklace or bracelet made from stones or sea glass may be just the thing to bring out your fun-loving and unpretentious side.
Professional Business
When it comes to professional outfits for the workplace, a simple and no-nonsense look is in order. A power suit or pencil skirt looks best with clean single-colored metal earrings and plain metal bracelet bands.
Make sure that all of your workplace accessories are made from simple lines and have no additional features adorning them. The metals also need to be the same color as each other so that your necklace doesn’t clash oddly with your hoops. Not only would clashing be an eyesore, but it would also make you look careless and unprofessional.
Formal Social Events
Formal events like weddings and cocktail parties are some of the most fun events to dress up for. Cocktail dress jewelry consists of a blend between casual and businesswear, meaning that it should be really elegant but also fresh and fun.
These occasions are perfect for showing off glimmering stones and gorgeous pearls. Simply put, you want to look sophisticated and classy, so experiment with different styles before the event and ask a friend what looks best with your dress.
Match Your Colors
When you think of coordinating jewelry and outfits, color is likely the first thing that comes to mind. Read on for some tips on how you can match the colors of your favorite outfits to those of your accessories!
Choose Colors You Love
When you’re accessorizing, choose the colors that you love most to adorn your outfits! After all, jewelry is a major form of self-expression. You want to feel good in your wardrobe combinations, so you need to enjoy everything you wear.
You can also use color psychology to choose the hues for your jewelry. What sorts of vibes do you want to give off? If you want to be a cool and calming presence, some blue bangles might be for you. If you want to appear friendly, approachable, and energetic, consider a yellow or orange accent.
Color Coordination: The Basics
Color coordination is crucial when choosing jewelry to go with your favorite outfits.
To decide whether or not two or more colors work well together, you’re going to need to look at something called the color wheel. This wheel is divided into two sections: warm colors like red, yellow, and orange, and cool colors, which include blues, greens, and purples.
Generally, in fashion, you don’t want to mix and match warm colors with cool tones. A red dress, therefore, goes best with a rose-gold or yellow-gold chain. It also looks good with orange, yellow, or red beaded jewelry. These outfits are ones that you may want to think of as firey.
On the other hand, cool colors go best with silver chains and charms. They also look awesome with blue or green beads and stones. When selecting jewelry to go with a blue or green blouse, think about the colors that invoke a beachy feel.
Train Your Eye
After a while of assembling outfits, you’ll start to have an eye for what colors look best together. You’ll automatically know what complementary colors are and when they should or shouldn’t be used together.
Once you have a trained eye for fashion, you can start experimenting more. Maybe you should try purple jewelry out with an orange dress for the purposes of looking funky on a first date. This isn’t something that everyone likes to do, but some people really enjoy throwing together interesting combinations.
Shapes and Styles
Matching isn’t all about color- it’s about shapes and styles, too. Outfits with circular patterns look best with spherical jewelry, and geometric shapes go well with pointed necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. Read on for more information on this phenomenon!
Spheres and Orbs
If you didn’t know, polka dots are really en vogue this year. Dressed, shirts, skirts, and more are printed in these adorable styles. This might be why people are wearing more spherical jewelry in 2020 than in previous years.
Spherical, orblike charms go with any outfit that’s printed with dots. They complement these shapes well. Hoop earrings or ring necklaces also work well with these styles, so feel free to mix and match!
Natural and Organic Shapes
When you wear rounded shapes (or otherwise organic print) on your blouse or dress, you can also use organically-shaped stones on bracelets and necklaces. This will give you an all-natural look that people will envy at casual and professional events alike.
Beaded Beauties
Beaded necklaces and bracelets go well with just about any outfit as long as your colors don’t clash. However, when it comes to beads, size does matter.
Small, subtle beads can be worn just about anywhere. However, large beads are exclusively a casual accessory. While they’re an awesome fashion statement at parties or on dates, at professional or corporate events they simply look gaudy.
