How to use colours in jewellery to enhance your overall look

Colours are an important part of our lives. We can see them all around us - in nature, in clothes, in interiors and of course in jewellery. Colours in jewellery can make a big difference to your overall look and add a special touch. They also have a huge impact on our sense of aesthetics and can have a big influence on how we feel and present ourselves to the world around us. Colours in jewellery are key to enhancing your overall look and can help emphasise your beauty and personality.

Colours in jewellery 

Colours in jewellery can be very versatile - they can be bright and bold or subtle and understated. You should match them with your clothes and possibly with the colour of your eyes. It is also important to consider your skin colour so that the colours of your jewellery enhance your natural beauty and do not blend in with you. In addition, every colour has its own meaning, it communicates with us and our surroundings and can affect our mood and psychological well-being.

Soft colours in jewellery

Soft colours in jewellery, such as pale pink, light blue or light purple, are ideal for people who prefer subtlety, timelessness and elegance. These colours are particularly suitable for people with softer skin, as their subtle tones can stand out and bring out natural beauty. If you like soft colours, choose delicate jewellery, such as earrings with jewels in pastel colours or delicate rings.

Bold colours in jewellery

Bold colours in jewellery, such as red, blue or green, are ideal for people who like to be noticed, who like attention and extravagance. These people want their jewellery to be bold and interesting. Bold colours in jewellery are also a great choice for people with darker skin, as these colours can stand out and bring out their natural beauty. If you like deep colours, choose bold jewellery such as earrings with large coloured stones or solid colour bracelets.

How to match colours in jewellery with your clothes? 

Sometimes it's a simple and obvious thing, other times it's literally an uphill battle. In general, however, a very simple rule applies - if you're wearing a bland and plain outfit, use jewellery to enhance the whole outfit and reach for bold jewellery or deep colours. On the other hand, with bold pieces of clothing, reach for simpler jewellery that will only highlight your outfit. For a casual day, apply the three-colour rule - for example, if you're wearing white shirt and black trousers, you can opt for silver jewellery. This simple trick can create the perfect match between the colours in your jewellery and your clothes. If you're wearing colourful clothes, choose one that has as little of it as possible in your outfit and opt for jewellery in that colour. This can create an interesting contrast and add a touch of flair to your overall look.

Key colours in jewellery

Some colours are more common in jewellery than others. However, each one communicates something and we attach a certain meaning to each one.  

White

White in jewellery is pure, elegant and timeless. It is most often found in pearlescent jewellery, which is a great choice for special occasions. In addition, pearls are one of the latest trends. White in jewellery communicates trust and simplicity. Therefore, among other things, it is a suitable colour for accessories for job interviews or more formal meetings, where you want to evoke a feeling of trust in a person towards you, plus it will make you look really elegant and sophisticated.  

Black

Black in jewellery is elegant and formal. Black is most commonly found in diamond jewellery or in jewellery with black onyx. It is not uncommon to find black glazes and patinas on jewellery in combination with a metal such as silver. It shows energy, strength and class. It creates a certain mystery and carries the mark of luxury. Black in jewellery should also be used as a complementary colour when you want to look really classy or want to promote a feeling of respect for you. 

Blue 

Blue is a very popular colour in jewellery because it is both subtle and bold. Blue is most commonly found in jewellery with aquamarine, sapphire, blue topaz or zircons and crystals. Blue communicates great trust, peace and harmony. Accessories in this colour can relieve stress and induce a feeling of relaxation. It is suitable for both formal and less formal occasions, and you can combine it with other colours very easily because it is very adaptable. Plus, light can play beautifully with blue stones in jewellery.

Pink

Pink in jewellery is a soft and romantic colour. Pink is most commonly found in different types of pink stones, such as rose quartz or rhodonite. It is the colour of love and expresses sensitivity and femininity. Pink accessories suit any delicate lady, they are the perfect companion for a first date or a romantic dinner where you want to look feminine and evoke the romantic soul of your partner.    

Green

The colour green in jewellery is a symbol of nature and peace. It refers to growth and development as well as renewal. It is most often found in jewellery with emerald or green crystals. It communicates health and growth, purity and freshness, making it suitable for everyday wear, as well as various formal occasions.

The best colours in jewellery for different occasions

Colours in jewellery are also very important for various occasions. Therefore, if you are planning the perfect outfit for a variety of events, you also need to consider where you are going and choose the right colours accordingly. The event should not only influence the colour of the jewellery but equally the colour of your dress.

Weddings

Jewellery in white, pearlescent, black and gold are most commonly worn for weddings. Pearlescent jewellery is very popular for brides, while gold and silver jewellery is a great choice for guests. The perfect colour to enhance your overall look is also red. However, consider the colour of your dress. The latter should be cheerful, a black dress looks very mournful, while a white dress should belong to the bride alone at the wedding. 

Formal occasions

For formal occasions, such as balls or anniversary parties, diamond jewellery or jewellery with precious stones is most often worn. This jewellery is usually in white and black designs combined with white or yellow gold. You can't go wrong with a coloured gemstone to match the colour of your dress for a ball either. For such events, more vibrant, festive dress colours such as red or green are most often worn. Many delicate ladies favour equally subtle colours such as light blue or pale pink. Jewellery colours in the case of the more delicate dresses can be chosen a little more boldly, but should not be overdone. 

Everyday wear  

For everyday wear, silver and gold jewellery is most commonly used, as it is very versatile and matches virtually any outfit. In this case, there is no limit to the colours and when you are going for an evening stroll or sitting with friends, you can take a risk and choose more vibrant combinations. Use the contrast and try out different jewellery combinations, layering or simply use your imagination and combine more colours. Don't be afraid of combining silver and gold either. It has long been said that they shouldn't mix. On the contrary, when combined correctly, it looks stylish, elegant and timeless. 

A few simple and good tricks on how to choose the right colour 

Choose colours that match your complexion

The colours you wear in your jewellery should match or harmonise with your skin colour. For example, if you have fair skin, you should consider wearing jewellery in a golden colour, which will bring out your skin tone and add colour. If you have dark skin, jewellery in bronze or, in contrast, white and silver may be a great choice for you. 

Combine colours with care

When choosing colours in jewellery, it is important to be careful and remember that not all colours mix well. For example, red in jewellery can seem too aggressive, while green colours can appear soothing. When combining colours, it is important that they complement each other and don't distract from your person.

Focus on contrasts

Contrasting colours can be a great choice if you want to attract attention and make your jewellery stand out. For example, red jewellery can stand out against a white background and vice versa, a white pearl can stand out against a dark background. Focusing on contrasting colours can also be a good way to highlight your eyes or hair.

Don't forget about texture 

Colours aren't the only factor that can affect the appearance of your jewellery. The texture of your jewellery can also add another dimension to your look. For example, matte jewellery can look natural and vintage, while shiny jewellery can be modern and elegant.

Colours can be such a great way to add another dimension to your look and can complement your outfit perfectly. Just choose the right colour and jewellery for the right occasion and you'll be the centre of attention. Plus, you'll be able to communicate your style and stand out from the crowd.
