This is definitely an art worth mastering, it can lend a great relaxed luxe edge to an outfit, and looks great with simple pieces like a plain black sheath dress. It is also a great way to add a new look to a much worn outfit without having to spend any money. Just have a good rummage around your jewelry drawer and then start seeing which ones look good together. With clothing it has taken me ages to learn to layer effectively and I still doubt that I get it right all the time. With jewelry it is a bit easier, for every rule, I can find an example of it being broken and still looking great. Here is my attempt at trying to bring some order to the chaos.
- Try use complementary hues - by this I mean go pastel, or go bright. You could go shades of blue or pinks (think ombre)
- Mix larger more statement pieces with dainty smaller pieces.
- I say mix metals, my personal everyday bevy of bracelets is predominately white metal, but I have no qualms with bringing some gold to the table.
- Throw in a pop of colour, Find something that works with your outfit and your colouring, it could either matchs or contrast. I like my bracelt stack to complement my nail varnish.
- Try to keep other accessories to minimum.
- Layer just use one arm, double wrist layering is very hard to pull off
- Feel free to add your watch, This is a great chance to get those watches you don't usually wear out of the drawer and get an airing.
