When you find a piece of jewelry that you love, the natural impulse is to want to wear it all the time. But unless you’re a movie star or have an equally vivacious friend who’ll let you borrow her looks on demand, chances are good that this won’t be feasible. Instead, it’s better to approach your newest accessory with an eye toward how you can make it work for different occasions and events. That way you can get the most out of this one fantastic piece while still staying true to your personal style at all times. With so many different variations of events and occasions to consider, it would be easy to believe that finding ways to re-wear your favorite jewelry would be challenging. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways for anyone to do this without breaking a sweat. Here are 5 tips for re-wearing the same jewelry pieces in different ways…
Change your necklace length
The first thing to consider when re-wearing the same jewelry pieces is the length of the necklace. While longer pieces will work well for parties, shorter necklaces are better to wear at formal occasions. The same goes for earrings, rings, and bracelets; shorter or longer versions of these will be most fitting for different events. When planning your outfit for a special occasion, look first at what length of necklace you’ll wear. Make sure the necklace length is appropriate for the type of event you’re attending. If you’re not sure what length is best, ask a friend or family member who has experience attending these sorts of affairs. If you’re not sure what length to wear, it’s a good idea to consult a styling guide. Fashionista.com, for example, has plenty of useful information on what necklace length to wear at different types of events.
Coordinate your accessories
If you’re re-wearing the same jewelry pieces at different occasions, one of the best ways to make them more event-appropriate is to coordinate your accessories. For example, if you’re wearing a bold, multi-strand necklace, you might want to switch to a stud earring or a smaller bracelet. Similarly, if you’re wearing a dainty bracelet that has a lot of sparkle, you might want to switch to a simpler pair of earrings. If you’re unsure what combination of accessories looks best, or if you’re not sure how to combine them, you might want to ask a friend or family member for a second opinion. For those who are more confident in their ability to coordinate multiple accessories, this is a great way to re-wear the same jewelry pieces for different occasions.
Wear the same piece on different body parts
Another great way to re-wear the same jewelry pieces at different occasions is to wear them on different body parts. This is particularly effective if you want to switch up your jewellery while still keeping your outfit relatively consistent. For example, you might wear your favorite bracelet on one arm one day and then switch it to your other arm the next. You can also wear your favorite earrings on both ears instead of just one. You can also wear your favourite pieces on different parts of your neck. This may not be quite as dramatic as switching your earrings or bracelet to your other arm, but it’s a great way to keep your jewellery relevant without switching out your entire outfit. You can also try wearing your favourite jewelries as a hair accessory or on your shoes.
Incorporate other jewelries in the same colour family
When re-wearing the same jewelry pieces in different ways, you may want to incorporate other jewelry in the same colour family. This can help to tie your jewelry together and ensure that it looks great together at all times. For example, if you’re wearing a bracelet with green jewels, you might want to incorporate another piece of jewelry that also has a strong green colour. A green ring or a brooch with a green gemstone, for example, might be a good choice if you want to incorporate another piece of jewelry in the same colour family. When incorporating other jewelries in the same colour family, you’ll want to make sure that your jewellery has a similar level of brightness and vibrancy. You’ll also want to make sure that it compliments your favourite piece of jewelry as well.
Switch up your jewelry’s Colour Equation
The last way to re-wear the same jewelry pieces in different ways is to switch up the Colour Equation of your accessories. By changing the Colour Equation of your jewelry, you can take a single piece and make it seem brand new. In order to do this, you’ll need to keep in mind the Colour Wheel we discussed earlier in the article. This will help you to choose new accessories that complement your favourite piece instead of overpowering it. For example, let’s say that you have a dazzling blue bracelet. If you change the Colour Equation of this bracelet, you can make it work for an outfit that has a lot of yellow. This is because the two colours are equidistant from one another on the Colour Wheel. By switching out your bracelet for a piece of jewelry in the yellow Colour Family, you can make your bracelet seem brand new once again.
Conclusion
Wearing the same jewelry pieces in different ways can be a great way to get the most out of your favourite pieces and ensure that you match with any outfit. You can do this by changing the length of your necklace or switching up its colour, wearing the same piece on different body parts, incorporating other jewelries in the same colour family, or switching up the Colour Equation of your accessories.
