Jewelry Styling Tips For the Office That Make Even Monday Sparkle

Looking for something that will sparkle under those fluorescent lights? Whether you’ve been dragged back into the office kicking and screaming or you relish those impromptu cubicle drop-ins from coworkers, we can help you bring a creative, energetic vibe to work with you every day.

Keep it Simple

Though most workplaces are a little more relaxed than they used to be, a level of stylistic moderation still reigns, so save your flashiest looks for the weekend. On top of that, certain kinds of jewelry could be dangerous depending on the nature of your job. If you’re not working with anything dangerous, but you’re giving a presentation or working in a quiet environment, you’ll want to be cognizant of the noise your jewelry makes. But even with those constraints, the possibilities for looking great and feeling great at work are still wide open.

Complement Your Style

The jewelry you wear to work might not steal the show, but it can still make a statement. You don’t have to limit yourself to a single piece of jewelry, but you can use less attention-getting pieces to help showcase one centerpiece. Try matching a subtle pair of earrings with a larger pendant, or a couple of inconspicuous rings with a brighter bracelet.

Whatever you choose, work around your weekday style. A pair of earrings or a shorter chain both go great with an updo. If your wardrobe tends toward the toned-down, bring some color with a gemstone bracelet. If your style is already bold and bright, the sophisticated simplicity of gold and diamonds might be all you need.

For those who wear a suit, a fun and colorful tie, pair of socks, or pocket square is typically about as out-there as it gets. But just as the right watch can add a hint of personality to an outfit that might look a lot like everyone else’s, the right bracelet or ring can keep you grounded and in touch with yourself when you’re away from home. Even better if it’s a piece that is meaningful to you, reminding you of what makes the 9 to 5 grind worth it.

Experiment With Versatility

An office wardrobe should be versatile. A few blazers, a few shirts, and a few pairs of shoes that can be mixed and matched is a cost-effective way to get the most out of your budget. The same goes for jewelry. Choose pieces that work with different outfits in different ways without clashing. Stacks and layers are great for this. They’re great for the end of the work day, too. When you swap the stilettos for sneakers for some after-work drinks, layer on a few more necklaces or beaded bracelets and let the fun begin.
