Twinkle lights. Joyful music. Delicious food.
It must be the holiday season!
With the holiday season, comes many reasons to celebrate! Whether you’re planning an intimate night with family or attending a fabulous gala, the right jewellery can truly go a long way. Complete your holiday outfit, in the best way possible, with the perfect pieces of jewellery!
In this article, we take a closer look at some of the best pieces of jewellery for your outfits this holiday season and beyond.
The Occasion
As with any outfit - you must first consider the occasion before putting your look together!
Throughout the holidays, chances are you will attend a variety of gatherings. And in between those gatherings, you will have a number of places to visit, errands to run and holiday joy to spread!
As always, the occasion will likely set the tone for your outfit. Smaller, more casual gatherings often call for a comfortable outfit with a little sparkle, while larger events can set the scene for a jaw-dropping look that lets your confidence shine!
Holiday Shopping
We believe that every occasion, no matter how large or small, deserves a little sparkle. While many dress for function, not fashion, when it comes to holiday shopping, there are many ways to elevate your outfit with a little glam!
The next time you head to the mall for a little holiday shopping, consider a pair of hoop earrings that truly sparkle or a dainty necklace that adds a subtle flair.
Quality Time
Whether you’re spending time with family, friends or a combination of the two, quality time is so important. Especially during the holiday season! Between shopping for gifts, preparing to host and accommodating a busier-than-usual schedule, taking time to ease stress with quality time is absolutely essential.
And what better way to add a dash of holiday magic, than with the right accessories?
The right rings, bracelet or necklace can really bring a casual outfit together. What’s better than feeling comfortable and looking fabulous at the same time, after all?
Joyful Celebrations
From holiday parties and mystical galas, to your traditional family dinner and New Year’s Eve, there are many upscale events that call for a truly breathtaking outfit. Complemented by the perfect accessories, of course!
These celebrations offer the perfect opportunity to showcase your most elaborate pieces of jewellery. Whether it be a gorgeous statement necklace or fantastic pair of chandelier or drop earrings, we encourage you to embrace your inner goddess and individuality by creating a look that is worthy of the Oscars.
The Colour Scheme
As you begin to plan a holiday outfit, you may want to take the colour scheme into consideration. Not only can the colour palette that you choose impact your outfit and make-up, but your jewellery as well!
Which Jewellery is Best for Me?
While the undertones of your skin and complexion can have the largest impact on the jewellery that you select, some outfits will call for a certain finish or kind of jewellery. Generally, we suggest opting for:
Gold if you have warmer undertones
Silver if you have cooler undertones
With rose gold, you can truly complement just about any skin tone. The copper-enhanced gold is one of the most versatile options you can ask for!
Complexion aside, our team of specialists at Linked By Brilla believe that you should always select a piece of jewellery that brings you joy. At the end of the day, it’s important that you find a piece that you truly love and will make the most of.
Colour Coordinating Your Outfit
With that being said, it’s time to colour coordinate your outfit as a whole! The colour of your outfit can help to direct which pieces of jewellery that you select. Your jewellery should always complement the outfit in question, acting as a true accessory.
Having trouble getting started? Use a colour wheel! This can help to provide you with direction in regards to complementary colours. It’s also important to balance your outfit, meaning that neutral colours can be balanced with a little more colour.
Does your outfit feature bold or colourful patterns? We always recommend achieving a balance with a simple piece of jewellery or ensemble.
The Outfit
Balance is incredibly important when planning your holiday outfit. It’s easy to get caught up in the finer details or a certain piece, especially while planning and shopping. But in the end, it really is the final look that you should have at the forefront. a
Here are five outfit and jewellery combinations that you may want to consider:
V-neck top, triangle pendant necklace and teardrop or pendant earrings.
Square neck dress, low profile pendant necklace and a simple bracelet
Turtleneck sweater, drop earrings and gemstone ring
Sweetheart neckline dress, mid-length pearl necklace and dangle earrings
Scoop neck blouse, princess or pendant necklace and stud earrings
Which outfit will inspire you for your next event?
Things to Keep in Mind
Now that we have covered some of the main factors that can have an impact on your next holiday outfit, here are some other things to keep in mind!
Choose one focal piece of jewellery! With a balanced outfit, less is often more when it comes to your jewellery. One focal piece of jewellery, highlighted and accentuated by complementary pieces, will absolutely bring your look together.
Match your bracelets to the length of your sleeve. The longer your sleeve, the fewer or daintier your bracelets should be.
When wearing a necklace, always pay attention to your neckline. The right necklace paired with your neckline can help to create a seamless, balanced look.
Trial and error is key! You won’t always find the perfect combination on the first try.
