Developing a style is all about showing people who you are. When you pick an outfit, it should be something that reflects your personality. But when it comes to accessorizing, people often forget this and end up picking things that don’t really go well with the rest of their outfit and don’t really say anything about who they are as a person. If you don’t really know where to start when picking jewellery, here are a few tips on choosing pieces that reflect your personality.
Think about your overall style
When you are picking jewellery, you need to think about what your overall style is. If you wear fairly plain clothes, you should choose jewellery that is understated and classy. But if you like to create outfits with bold colors and interesting textures, you’d be more at home with boho jewellery styles. It’s important that you think about your overall style and why you choose the clothes that you do. That will help you to use the same thinking when you buy your jewellery.
Engravings
One of the best ways to find jewellery that is personal to you is to get it engraved with a custom method. You will have a piece of jewellery that is completely unique and nobody else in the world will be wearing the same. It also has some special significance to you. When thinking of an engraving to have, you should think about any dates that are special to you, perhaps the birthday of somebody close to you, for example. You can also pick quotes from a favourite book or film as well. Whatever you decide, make sure to pick something that has some significance to your life.
Birthstones
If you want a more subtle way of personalising jewellery and you don’t like the idea of engraving, you should consider birthstones. There is a different birthstone for each month and you can get some great birthstone jewellery which is a great way to add a personal touch to your outfit. There is a different colour for each month and if your month is a colour that you wouldn’t normally wear, you should try to go for something with a small stone in it so you can match it with your outfits easily.
Hand me downs
Having jewellery that has some significance is always a good way to reflect your personality and birthstones and engravings are a great way to do that. But you should also think about hand me down jewellery as well. If your parents or grandparents have jewellery that they don’t wear anymore, why not ask them if you can have it? Every time you wear it, it will be a reminder of a person that means something to you. Vintage fashion is very popular as well, so wearing older jewellery will be very on trend.
The most important thing to remember is that you shouldn’t pick the jewellery that everybody else is wearing because you think it’s fashionable. You need to choose things that really reflect who you are as a person.
