Mix, Match & Style Your Jewelry Like A Pro

Figuring out how to mix, match and style jewelry can seem difficult sometimes, but like all things- you simply need to know what to look for.
Here are a few areas you must pay attention to when deciding what pieces best compliment your outfits.
  • Choose a central theme or Piece.
A central theme here means identifying the look you’re trying to achieve. This could be bold and fabulous, or chic, understated and elegant. There are different pieces that’d appeal to each theme. Bold pieces tend to be bigger dainty pieces are best to help you achieve
A central piece is the jewelry around which you choose every other piece you wear. If you choose your necklace first, then the earrings, bracelet or rings you wear, must be chosen in line with what pairs well with your central piece.
What making either of these choices does is give you a starting point from where you go ahead to style.
Knowing where to start from is just as important as knowing what to wear.
  • Complimentary jewelry
Wear jewelry pieces that complement each other. This could be based on length or design.
Whatever pieces you decide to put on must look good together, before they can then look good on the outfit you intend to pair together with them.
Being able to identify complimentary pieces requires attention to details like the colors and shapes on the pieces.
All BAB necklaces with square pendants, will for instance, all pair well together for layering much in the same way the "Made In Heaven, Assembled In Africa" Earring would pair well with the "Made In Heaven Assembled In Africa" Bracelet.
  • Mix your jewelry Tones
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with wearing different jewelry tones. Wearing silver and gold jewelry is the best of both worlds, but you can also wear gold and rose gold, silver and rose gold, silver and black and so many other combinations.
Here the only true hack is not to be afraid to try.
What should fit on paper mag not work and some pieces may surprise you by pairing well together.
You’ll only know if you try.
Our pieces are, fortunately, available in Yellow gold, Rose gold, Silver and Black to provide you with variety for your mixing experiments.
  • Wear matching Jewelry Tones
Yes, yes I know what I just said. Here’s the thing though, it all boils down to #1, what type of look are you trying to bring to life?
Combining jewelry tones is often edgy or makes casual outfits more dressy.
A monotone jewelry tone is best when the vibe you’re aiming for simple and classy. Wearing jewelry with the same tone gives you more room to experiment with the colors of your outfit, and helps to balance it out. A feat that is more difficult to achieve when mixing tones with colorful outfits.
  • Know Your Style
There are good outfits and there are great outfits. Sometimes the only difference between both is how you feel in them. The goal of styling is not to only look good, but to feel good and boost confidence as well.
Wearing a great outfit which does not embody who you know yourself to be, will make you feel as though you your outfit is all wrong.Figure out what pieces make you feel like yourself and then wear those.
Large, small, bold, dainty, minimalist or maximalist, knowing this will up your styling game by a mile.
  • Be Open To Layering
Don't close your mind to the idea of wearing multiple pieces of the same jewelry. Wear a trio of necklaces, with rings on as many fingers as you want and your bracelets clacking against each other as you walk if that is what seems appealing to you. Of course this is not the only way to layer.
You can choose to layer on one area of your body, your neck, ears, wrist or fingers as the case may be.
When layering, the multiplicity of pieces means you can play around with shapes, tones and colors more.
There you go! Do all these and everyone will think you hired a stylist to pick out your every outfit. I believe the fashion guru in you has been born. Ready, set, style!
