If you have an overflowing jewelry collection loaded with things you love (or have forgotten you love), but you’re not getting the most out of it and don’t know where to begin, or maybe you’re just unsure about which things to buy that will complement each other and work for you, worry not. We will tell you some fun and creative ways in which you can reuse your old pieces and make the most out of them.
Experimentation Is Key
Try different lengths, styles, materials and colors to create eye-catching layers using rings, necklaces and even earrings. If you’re stacking necklaces, use varying lengths to bring the eye up. Check out this website to purchase gold chains and expand your collection. Create a unique look on your arm with bangles and bracelets that flash and jangle as you move. Check out some stacking rings and cocktail rings for ideas on how to mix and match rings. If you have numerous ear piercings or wish to combine ear cuffs with other earrings, you can easily do so with cohesive looking jewelry items. Opt for some dangling, drop, and stud earrings and mix and match.
Don’t Overdo It
If you’re bringing attention to your face and neckline with layered necklaces or a statement necklace, perhaps an armful of bangles isn’t necessary. If you’re wearing a bold or statement set of earrings, keep your necklace a little more understated or perhaps skip it entirely (on the other hand, a bold pair of earrings with a matching necklace can sometimes work beautifully, depending on the occasion). If you’ve accessorized with many pieces, try following expert advice and keep it minimal. Sometimes, it is very important to know when to stop with accessorizing.
Pair Mismatched Earrings
If your old earrings are kept in a box and you haven’t gotten much use out of them lately, try mixing and matching a pair of different earrings and wear different earrings for a statement look. Earrings are one of the first things people notice as they are always in the line of vision, so make sure that you grab that opportunity and get creative with it. However, remembering to replace your earrings on a daily basis is a terrific way to add interest and flair to your ensemble. It’s also an excellent time to clean your favorite pair of earrings!
Have A Focal Point In Your Jewelry Ensemble
Jewelry is a great way to draw attention to certain parts of your body. You can stack and layer your jewelry in such a way that whichever body part you want to accentuate, shines through. For instance, if you have prominent collar bones, wearing a dainty chain will give you a more feminine look. Or if you have thin wrists, a cuff would make them appear fuller and healthier.
Draw Inspiration From Trends
You can style the older jewelry pieces that you have by what is currently in trend. Although trends are a great way of buying jewelry, they change pretty often and buying jewelry JUST looking at trends would be a rookie mistake. Instead, buy and style jewelry according to what you resonate with and would like to wear, making sure it aligns with your personal style statement. You can also experiment with different types of jewelry to figure out what you like best.
Using old jewelry on a day to day basis is a good way of getting maximum use out of it. Get into the habit of planning your outfit the night before so you can also put your jewelry to use.
