How to Choose the Right Jewellery for Your Outfit

14th February 2025

When it comes to putting an outfit together, no matter the occasion, it can be difficult to know how to accessorise it. This is especially the case if you have plans both in the day and at night, but have no time to go home and switch up your accessories. So how can you choose the right jewellery for your outfit from the outset? We have put together a few tips for picking out different jewellery items to make your outfit stand out, whether you prefer a hint of style and sophistication or want to make a statement, we will have a suggestion for you. Here’s how to choose the right jewellery for your outfit:

 

Check what you have in your collection that will go with your outfit

The first thing you need to do before putting any jewellery on is to have a look at what you have in your collection already. It’s helpful to do this well before you have to attend the occasion at hand. This way, you can add to your collection and buy something that will be perfect for the outfit you want to wear on the day, rather than having to make do with what you have already. 

Here at Little Star Jewellery, we have a variety of beautiful pieces of jewellery for you to choose from. Whether you’re looking for a stunning new necklace or a gorgeous new pair of earrings, we will have something for you that will make an invaluable addition to your jewellery collection. Little Star Jewellery is pleased to offer various metals, including sterling silver, yellow gold and rose gold

We can also provide our customers with Mother of Pearl items – an understated yet stylish jewellery item that can be adorned no matter the occasion. If you’ve realised that you don’t have anything suitable in your current jewellery collection, then choose Little Star Jewellery to provide you with brand-new, extraordinary pieces that will last a lifetime.

 

Consider the occasion

When it comes to choosing a piece of jewellery to wear, you should consider the occasion you’re going to wear it to. For example, our Bryony Personalised Sterling Silver Rainbow Locket wouldn’t be suitable to wear to a formal event, like a wedding or a funeral, but it would be perfect for wearing to a birthday party or a music festival, for example. 

Are the jewellery items in your collection generally fun and colourful or are they dainty and sparkly? Are they versatile and understated or are they statement pieces that would set you apart from the crowd? Think about whether the items you have in your jewellery collection would be appropriate for the occasion you’re attending, and if not, then choose Little Star Jewellery for outstanding jewellery pieces. 

 

Don’t deviate from your style

Something that you must think about when it comes to choosing the right jewellery for your outfit is to make sure you’re not deviating from your overall style. Your outfit still needs to conform to your personality. Don’t choose glistening diamonds and bright-coloured gemstones if you’ve forever been adorning dainty styles and sophisticated jewellery pieces. If less has always been more in terms of jewellery, then don’t steer away from that now just because you’ve bought a new outfit you’d like to wear. 

Instead, stick to your original style and wear something that screams you. You might be wondering how that can be done. Choosing jewellery that fits with your style is simple enough if you’re picking versatile, quality pieces of jewellery that can be passed throughout the generations, and that’s possible when you choose Little Star Jewellery to add to your jewellery collection. We have something for everyone, so take a browse through our wide selection of phenomenal jewellery items and you’ll be sure to find a piece that will match your personal style.

 

Think about necklines & sleeve lengths

This might sound like a silly thing to say when it comes to choosing the right jewellery items for your outfit, but it’s actually quite an important consideration to make. Necklines can make all the difference, often deciding for us when it comes to wearing a necklace or not wearing a necklace. Low necklines would suit a necklace adorning the neck, as would high necklines. However, necklines that aren’t too low or too high wouldn’t suit a necklace, so it would be better to choose a statement pair of earrings rather than a necklace to go with your outfit. 

The same thing goes for sleeve lengths. If your sleeves come down quite far, then wearing a bracelet or a watch wouldn’t be suitable. However, sleeves that are three-quarters in length or shorter would warrant the adorning of a bracelet, bangle or watch on the wrist. If so, you could wear a bracelet and a set of earrings, rather than a bracelet, a necklace and a pair of earrings. 

Make sure the balance is right. It’s not always the best idea to wear all three jewellery items together. Instead, weigh them up and choose which jewellery items would go well together and which ones would make the overall look too heavy. Have a trial before you have to attend your occasion. Try different jewellery items in front of the mirror and keep adding to your outfit or taking things away until the overall look appears light and well-balanced. 

 

Can your jewellery choices take your outfit from day to night?

The other thing to think about is whether or not you have the time to go home and change up the jewellery you’re wearing. Often, the answer is “no”. With this in mind, make sure that the jewellery you have chosen is versatile enough to take your outfit from day to night. Some of our top picks for jewellery that would be perfect to wear either during the day or at night are as follows:

 

Little Star Jewellery has a wide range of different jewellery pieces available for men, women, children and babies.
