Our jewels become more precious when paired the right way! Enhancing a necklace or a pair of earrings and carefully matching them with the outfit is the best way to showcase our grace and highlight our character. A brief guide to matching today’s necklaces and earrings: you will find some simple tips to always look your best, no matter which accessory you choose to wear! Enjoy your reading!
Large necklaces = small earrings
The first rule when choosing jewellery is always
not to overdo it! If we choose a large and showy necklace, perhaps even colourful, it’s better to opt for a pair of small earrings.
Studs, gold or silver earrings, or small pearls are the ideal choice to highlight our necklace without neglecting the rest.
Ideal outfit: elegant, preferably in solid colours on the upper body, where the necklace alone will be enough to bring out the whole look.
Playing with shapes
If we choose earrings shaped like a circle (or triangle, or square), we repeat the
geometric pattern also in pairing a necklace. Squares, circles, and triangles... or generally angular shapes!
Ideal outfit: casual, for work.
Ethnic accessories
For lovers of ethnic style and more distinctive jewellery, it is important to know how to best match the necklace or earrings you want to wear. The best way to enhance ethnic patterns is to pair them with very simple jewellery, preferably without precious stones, in gold or silver. So, if we choose an ethnic necklace, we aim for simpler and more playful earrings in gold or silver. Conversely, if we choose showy earrings, it’s better to favour a pendant in gold or silver.
Ideal outfit: casual, for strolling, in colours that contrast with those of the chosen ethnic accessory.
Diamonds
Diamonds and precious stones in neutral colours do not necessarily have to be the main feature of our outfit! A great idea is to pair them with a coloured accessory, in pastel or striking shades. This way, both accessories will stand out without overdoing it. Be careful to match finishes made of the same precious metal!
Ideal outfit: elegant dresses, even patterned, for ceremonies or special events.
Pearls
Pearls... go well with pearls! A timeless style classic: pearls in necklaces and earrings, obviously of the same shade, give every outfit an old-world elegance that never tires.
Ideal outfit: elegant, for ceremonies, but also for work. It is important to match the shades of the pearls well with the colours of the clothes.
Going for a set
A matching set of earrings and necklace can be the real solution to all the problems of choosing the perfect accessory. The same brand and the same collection prove to be a winning move for all women who have neither the time nor the desire to think about which jewel to wear. Of course... you must pay attention to matching with the outfit! Remember: never overdo it! Sobriety and grace always win. An example? The
Marco Bicego jewels have such a particular and unique style that they are perfectly matchable with each other. A great investment, especially for those who prefer a sober and classic outfit, focusing more on the quality of the accessories. You can find them in our
online shop and, of course, in the physical store!
The colours of the outfit
If our outfit has neutral colours, obviously any jewellery will suit it. Otherwise, avoid contrasts, especially in the cold seasons. It is better to opt for jewellery of the same shade, at most in pastel versions compared to the clothes. In some cases, it is a great idea to go for different colours instead. A bright fuchsia, for example, can best highlight a necklace in Tiffany blue. A red, paired with pure white or pastel pink. A light blue with orange or yellow... In short: with bright colours in our clothes, we can be a bit more adventurous, with the caution of keeping the hue also in the other accessories used.
