The way you style your jewellery can transform a boring ensemble into a fire OOTD fit for the ‘gram, but it does take a bit of know-how to make sure your bling flatters instead of faults. With pairings from Poh Heng’s new Freestyle Candy Collection, here are 3 fail-proof ways to add accessories to your outfits effortlessly.
From comfy everyday looks and date-night ensembles to more edgy streetwear garbs, your personal style can be elevated with utmost confidence thanks to these simple jewellery styling tips.
Casual, more relaxed outfits like a white tee and blue jeans combo make for the best canvas to experiment with chunky and bold statement pieces.
To strike a contrast, use warm tones like yellow and gold in jewellery to help liven up the look so even your plain white or black tee will look a little more boujee.
Pairing a bright yellow clover earrings together with a matching clover necklace will create an eye-catching look that also adds some depth and glamour to an otherwise plain outfit.
For even more flair, you can throw in some rings to make your overall outfit further stand out. If you’re in blue denim, you can always use a ring with a similar complementary blue detailing, such as Poh Heng’s Blue Topaz Candy Curved Ring, lifting your look from plain jane to casual chic.
Dresses are a default go-to for girls when they want something comfortable, especially in Singapore’s weather. And an easy way to match your jewellery to a bright coloured dress or is to make use of the colour wheel.
This means using complementary colours for your jewellery pieces. For example, if you have a yellow or peach-coloured dress on, red or purple accessories are the way to go since they strike a distinct balance of hues.
By wearing earrings, bracelets and rings with similar patterns and shades, it will additionally make the outfit appear uniform without using an otherwise flat one-tone-only colour palette. It also gives added texture to the outfit when you make use of shapes to coordinate the ensemble.
Pro tip: For a more unique look, you can stack similar coloured rings together on the same finger, which not only makes a statement but adds a focal point to the entire outfit so you’re ready to wow for date night.
Usually, streetwear fits call for a go big or go home look – but that doesn’t mean the jewellery you choose should clash and end up backfiring on your OOTD. That’s why you should select more minimalist pieces that add an air of elegance to the look without making the fit appear over the top or cluttered.
For example, this simple gold necklace falls just on the neckline of a black pullover, which makes the gold pop against the dark colour of the top. The piece’s clean and elegant heartbeat design also allows you to bling up almost any outfit subtly.
Simple yet uniquely-shaped accessories like these Circle Earrings and Pop Heart Ring also add a playful flair to your vibe without excessively distracting from your overall look. This gives a touch of youthful spirit to your more edgy ensembles for a cool but sophisticated vibe.
