Edit for Impact

Got a big statement piece going on, like a chunky necklace, metallic cuff or multitiered earrings? A safe approach is to let one stunner be the focus and keep other pieces smaller in scale and impact.

 

 

Know Spatial Relations

Layer it on with pieces that aren’t too close to each other: Long earrings and a cuff work better than long earrings and a multistrand necklace. A big necklace and cocktail ring can also work.
   

Forget Matched Sets

Don’t worry about mixing metals, but do make sure the pieces have the same mood. You don’t want to wear red-carpet-level baubies with workday staples
 

Make Clothes Corperate

If you love bold, big-bead necklaces, consider matching the colour of your top to the necklace. The jewellery will stand out, but not too much.
