General rules for choosing jewelry

To always look beautiful and stylish, when choosing jewelry you must adhere to the following rules:

• The outfit and accessories should be chosen according to the event that you are going to attend.
• The color of jewelry is selected according to the type of appearance. Before choosing jewelry, you need to decide who you are: autumn, summer, winter or spring.
• Do not forget about moderation. Even if you are going to a New Year's party, remember that you are not a “tree”.

Important! There is one rule: the older the woman, the less jewelry she is allowed to wear at the same time.

• For elegant, weightless dresses, it is best to choose fragile jewelry, and massive accessories are appropriate with outfits of their dense fabric.
• Materials must be combined. If earlier putting on silver and gold at the same time was undesirable, today this rule is often ignored. The main thing is that the image was designed in one particular style.
• To choose jewelry for a dress of a bright shade should be discreet, and vice versa.
• It is impossible to combine jewelry with jewelry. This is considered bad taste.
• Too close placement of jewelry spoils the whole image.
• It is undesirable to add accessories:
  1. Too shiny dresses.
  2. Outfits with ruffles, ruffles and puffs.
  3. Outfits with a drape or bow in the neck, an asymmetrical neckline, flowers, stones or embroidery on the bodice.

Important! Jewelry is designed to emphasize a particular part of your body. Therefore, the selected accessories can compliment you, or, on the contrary, ruin your entire look.

Selection of jewelry to cut the dress

Speaking about the dress, we mean all the options for outfits: with calm, with spectacular and with original necks. Therefore, our advice will be relevant for both everyday casual and office business style. The main thing in the question of how to choose accessories for the dress is to pay attention to the depth and shape of the neckline, and starting from this, to select jewelry, taking into account the above general rules.

The same difficulties can arise for the neckline of square and round solutions, unexpressed V-shaped and deep options, and even for a turtleneck. Each case is individual, but there are always general tips and principles!

Turtleneck

There are several options for choosing the right accessories for along with a high neck. Here are relevant:

• any long multi-layer jewelry;
• complex chains with pendants or massive pendants.

Important! Beads that are made of semiprecious stones also look good.

V neck

Here we are talking about a moderate depth of cut, which simplifies the task.It is considered ideal when the form is duplicated, namely for the V-shaped variant, a chain with a pendant is not too long. Then the decoration itself and the neckline will look like V, which is desirable according to the stylistic canons.

Shallow U-neck

When you need to decide how to choose jewelry for the cutout of a dress in the shape of U, you should adhere to the above standards, only here the jewelry should have a more rounded shape.

It can be:

• not a long string of pearls;
• complex necklaces;
• necklace with pendants.

Rounded small neckline

Often it causes difficulties when it is necessary to choose accessories for the neckline of the dress. But this problem is easily solved if you choose a massive necklace or a decorative collar that repeats the neckline shape. Long bead strands also look good if the neckline rises high to the collarbone.

Boat neckline

Here, the jewelry will always fall just below the neckline, so a string of pearls in several additions and a chain with a large pendant will look good.

Important! “Boat” is a self-contained neckline, so it’s quite possible to abandon jewelry on the neck and wear only large, spectacular earrings.

Shirt collar

It is very common in business style. This option requires the same specific conciseness. Thin chains that are complemented by small elegant pendants will be appropriate here. Everything is elegant and strict.

Without strapless

Choosing the right accessories for a strapless dress is very simple! Do not compete with the magnificent luxury of the dress itself. Here, concise solutions are great: an elegant necklace or a collar necklace.

Important! Examples of selection of accessories for the dress cutout indicate the need to maintain geometric balance, which should be guided when choosing jewelry for different outfits.

Neckline

A completely different task for someone who needs to choose jewelry for a dress with a neckline. Here it’s really difficult to figure out how to correctly choose jewelry, and it’s unlikely that you can do without the advice of professionals. Neckline refers to a deep neckline that covers the chest. It can take the following forms:

• V-shaped.
• Round off.
• "Heart".

Let's try to consider in detail each of the options:

1. Deep V-neckline - this requires a repetition of the contour. Therefore, you should pay attention to the chains, which are decorated with pendants of a triangular and diamond shape. The deeper the neckline, the clearer the shape of the decoration should be.
2. A square neckline - in its depth, is often close to the neckline, so let's look at it from this angle. An ideal option would be to find jewelry with a clear geometry of the square. But if this is not, then you can choose any other option - a necklace, a chain with a pendant, beads, but of moderate length, so that the decoration does not intersect the cut line.
3. “Heart” - looks good even without any additional accents, but with a great desire, a massive jewelry or multi-layer chains / beads will be appropriate.

Color harmony

In many ways, the color of the outfit determines the right choice of jewelry:

• Jewelry can be matched to the dress on the basis of contrast, but this contrast should not introduce disharmony into the image.
• Another option is the choice of jewelry to match the tone of the outfit. But here it is necessary to ensure that jewelry is not “lost” in the background of the dress.

Important! When choosing the color of jewelry, you should consider the type of your appearance. Dark-skinned girls are decorated with warm tones, but owners of fair skin are perfectly suited for cold shades.

Successful decisions

Let's take a closer look at several harmonious combinations so that you can more clearly imagine how to choose jewelry for the dress:

• It is best to choose accessories for the dress in blue made of silver. If you need to put a bright accent, then you should choose jewelry of a dark red color.
• Along with red, any additional decorations are not particularly needed, because this color is self-sufficient. But if you want to use jewelry, then you can select them, depending on the purpose of the toilet. Gold jewelry, as well as black color jewelry, are perfect for an evening out in red. White or red jewelry can be used for everyday wear.

Important! It is impossible that red matches the tone of the dress; it must be either darker or lighter.

• Burgundy along with a saturated shade requires gold jewelry. Also, “berry” shades — lingonberry, blackberry, and blueberry — are perfect for burgundy.
• It’s easy to choose jewelry for a beige dress, because this color combines well with almost all other colors.
• A yellow dress can be complemented with purple accessories. To create a romantic airy image, it is better to use light colors (violet, lilac).

Important! Aubergine and purple jewelry against a yellow outfit is a bolder option for girls.

• A bright fuchsia toilet should be complemented with silver or black jewelry.
• The green dress looks good with gold and silver. A bright accent can be set using coral shades.
• Black, gray or white jewelry will not suit gray. Here it is better to pick up bright products, for example, lilac or pistachio.
• A white dress looks great with colored decorations. Blue and red colors can add elegance to the image, and pastel colors are suitable for creating a romantic image.
• Black along with sophistication will add pearls. And for a casual look, any color jewelry is good.
• For outfits with floral prints, it is undesirable to choose multi-colored jewelry. It is better to choose one of the shades that is present in the colors of the dress, and choose the decoration of this particular color.
• It is quite difficult to choose accessories for the dress in the box. Decorating for a similar outfit should be as simple as possible with a minimum of decor. The color must be selected for one of the shades in the cells.
