Jewelry Essentials: Classic Pieces for Everyday Style 

Think of the building blocks in your closet: your favorite “go-to” staple piece you wear every season, that top, or sweater, that you saw in store and just had to have, the piece that you were happy to pull the plastic card out of your wallet for, swipe, and invest in. In the off season’s you put the item(s) away with care. It’s your favorite signature piece, you wear it with confidence because it’s recognizably you. 

You should apply the same thought process to what’s in your jewelry box. The beauty is all in the details. While most mornings, rushing out of the door leaves little to no time to struggle with the clasp of your favorite necklace; you should always have on some sort of signature accessory.

Find a necklace that you legitimately can’t live without. Every once in a blue moon you find the perfect necklace, so perfect in fact, that you never take it off. In part because it’s somewhat difficult to but, it also goes with a lot in your closet. It’s easily paired with other items from your jewelry box and it’s the perfect length to layer with other necklaces.

Not all chokers have to look “tweenish.” Before you go digging up your time capsule or rummaging through old boxes in your parent's attic you can find a more sophisticated version at most jewelry selling locations. Layering your new and old necklaces can create a unique look.   

The watch

Find a time piece that coincides with your style and vibes. Most time pieces say to the world, “I’m an adult, with a tight schedule” or “I have somewhere to go right after this.” A watch is the perfect accessory to convey sophistication. And there are thousands of options to choose from as far as materials and designs. A shiny bezel, or a leather strap can really tie together any outfit. Like most jewelry the price range for this kind of accessory is quite wide. Be realistic and pick one that suits your lifestyle.  

Earrings

A pair of simple diamond studs can draw more attention to your face. The glimmer adds to your style but with simplicity, make them work. Simple studs also nicely complement other piercing’s you may have. The concept of several “dainty ear piercings” are taking the aesthetic world by storm. So, find a nice pair of diamond studs that will complement the newest addition. If you are afraid of needles, consider a pair of clip-on earrings. They give you the desired look without permanence.  

Hoop earrings

Hoop earrings come in a variety of sizes. You can go for the playfully large statement hoops or for a subtle pair of earlobe hugging hoops. Regardless to personal preference this streamlined shape is an undying classic.

Nothing compliments a Pinterest inspired messy bun more than a pair of dangling earrings. Pick a fun, eye-catching pair and don’t be afraid to have fun with this accessory.  

Rings

Wear rings on several fingers at once, or even stacked on top of one another for a layered look. Consider mixing metals and other material types for a personal and creative look.  

Whatever jewelry pieces you select make them all your own. Consider what is most needed for the pieces in your closet and build from there. Some outfits will call for stacked accessories and others will need more subtle pieces. Prepare yourself for your best life and accessorize every day.
