Christmas is approaching, it is a season to
be jolly. It is also a season to be surprised... the season for Christmas parties at work,
home and all over town. Many people add Christmas jewelry to their outfits this
time of year without knowing the fashion rules. With Christmas themed jewelry, you need to
think about your personal style, how it will look with your wardrobe and what kind
of occasion you might be wearing it. In most situations, choosing jewelry and
accessories is mostly a matter of finding pieces you love and pairing them with the right
clothing. However, selecting holiday jewelry can be a little more complicated. Here are
some tips around wearing seasonal jewelry and accessories that will help you
get into the festive season without compromising style:
1.
Know Your Own Style
"Personal style is accepting who you
are"- Diane Von Furstenberg. Do you agree with this?
What is style? It is effortless confidence in being yourself, it is a
way putting yourself together according to your mood
and what you want to project. Personal style appears to come naturally for some,
but for others it can take a while to find it! Style is something each of us already has-
all we need to do is find it yourself... I personally think seasonal items are very
rare items in everyone's jewelry box. Your everyday style generally reflects your
personality, so if you get to zealous with the holiday pieces, you may feel uncomfortable.
You’ll want to keep reasonably close to your usual style of jewelry in order to
feel comfortable, confident and happy wearing seasonal items. On the other hand, if you
are normally conservative with your choice of jewelry, you may consider keeping your
holiday jewelry simple and classic but with simple Christmas-themed earrings or
jewelries.
2.
Think About the Event/ Occasion
The type of event/ occasion will impact the
jewelry you choose to wear. If the event is on the formal side, you may want to tone
down the holiday jewelry and keep it classy,
elegant and simple.
For informal or
casual event, large
broaches, dangling earrings or
flashy Christmas-themed earrings
& jewelry may
be appropriated. However, you
also would be wise to not wear too dressy or showy, formal jewelry to a very
casual event. So think twice and do matching before you put on those dress, earrings
or jewelries... 
3. Make Everything as Simple as Possible, but NOT Simpler
When it comes to holiday jewelry, avoid the temptation to accessorize yourself like a Christmas tree or too eye catching. One way to prevent this fashion disaster is to remember that less is more, and you’ll be better off aiming for a few classic pieces that enhance and not detract from your outfit. Always bear in mind, simple is the best!
4.
Capture One's Attention(The Right Impact)
Because
it is the
Christmas holidays, you’ll
find Christmas jewelry
ranging from gorgeous and classic
to extravagant. A simple black cocktail dress with a sparkling red necklace
with a pair of pearl earrings would be stunning. Avoid too much color or
busyness by the pattern of the outfit or dress.
You may also pick something that
highlights one of the colors in the jewelry, or just choose black or white. The
color tone of the jewelry and your outfit have to be matched accordingly. Last
but not least; remember, your jewelry should enhance but not compete with one
another.
5.
Choose a Color
At Christmas season, it’s easy to see that
the usual festive colors like red, gold, green and silver. Keeping your color scheme uniform is the best way to accessorize with holiday jewelry. Picking a single color will give disparate pieces a sophisticated. Avoid the scenario of red earrings, a green broach and a gold necklace, for instance, as this would overwhelm the outfit from head to toe. Opt for one main theme to keep things fresh, chic and classy. Remember these 5 tips for wearing holiday jewelry and you'll be perfectly festive and fashionable at your next get-together. Use your own best judgment and err on the side of under-accessorizing, and you'll be the hit of the party.
