How to Style Luxury Jewelry for Everyday

Posted by Skeie's Jewelers on

You've seen the "Wearing vs. Styling" trend, right? You start with some everyday basics - jeans, a shirt, some sneakers - and add layers and accessories to turn a basic home look into going-out-ready, everyday street style. 


The best part of that trend? How jewelry takes any look to the next level. Sweats and a white tee? Add gold hoops to instantly elevate your wardrobe. Everyday jeans and a sweater? A killer ring stack will make you feel ready for anything. 


Jewelry is the ultimate everyday styling hack, and we're going to give you the rundown on exactly where to start. Jewelry trends last much longer than clothing trends; whereas clothes come in and out of style, wear out with years of washing and drying, and don't fit as well over the years, fine jewelry always fits (or can always be adjusted to fit) and never goes out of style. 


So how do you incorporate jewelry into your everyday style? 

Simple Everyday Favorites

The best place to start an everyday collection is with something simple and comfortable. The more detailed or occasion specific a piece is, the harder it will be to style for everyday wear. By starting with a necklace that's light and casual, you can add on later with more event-specific styles and don't have to worry about if it matches or coordinates... classic gold chains are like your favorite pair of jeans - they go with everything!


If you're new to wearing jewelry, start with one of our layering chains, like the Cable and Bar Layering Chain, or the Roberto Coin 18kt Gold Station Necklace.

Effortless Everyday Layering

Once you have an easy-to-wear everyday necklace as your base, you can easily add in layers. For everyday wear, make your second piece just a little thicker, and a slightly different length, to help prevent the two chains from tangling. 


For example, if you went with our favorite Cable and Bar Layering Chain in an 18", mix in a 16" paperclip link chain. The great thing with paperclip style chains is you can almost always put the clasp at a shorter link, so the length is easily customizable. 

Favorite Stacking Rings

One of the most timeless ways to add a touch of personalization to your jewelry collection is mixing different types of metal and metal colors. Stack your favorite sterling silver rings with yellow gold for a blend of color and texture. 


Our favorite way to start playing with stacker rings and mixed metals? The Lika Behar Stockton ring collection - it's a broad range of stackable rings with a hand-hammered finish and tons of gorgeous variety (not to mention totally customizable!)

Elevated Statement Jewelry

Once you've built a collection of simple, light chains, change it up with a piece that's made to be noticed. Statement jewelry is a fabulous way to elevate your casual, everyday street wear. Think black jeans, boots, and a casual sweater paired with chunky, unique chain designs and statement pendants. 


We have so many favorites in this category, but our go-to statement pieces are Roberto Coin pendants, like the Diamond Dog-Tag Pendant and Chain.

Here is what everyday jewelry comes down to... you!
