If jewellery is a staple of your wardrobe, no matter what season, here are our tips for wearing and caring for your jewellery during summer.
1 | Go Minimal
There is a time and a place for making a statement and summer is not it; with the sticky heat, pool parties, and travel plans, keeping things minimal is the best option. You don’t want to be fussing over chunky necklaces and bangles or trying to prise stacked rings off swollen fingers. Delicate minimalist jewellery always looks good and in summer it’s essential. The simplest things are often the prettiest.
2 | Invest In Quality
It goes without saying but investing in quality should always be top priority. Cheap jewellery made from plated brass or copper will not only flake and fade in the heat it’s likely to irritate your skin too. Quality jewellery doesn’t have to be expensive; sterling silver can be affordable and gold fill jewellery looks and wears like solid gold because it is gold just without the price tag. Pay attention to the materials your jewellery is made from and your skin (and style) will thank you for it.
3 | Avoid Stacking
Things get sweaty in summer and you’ll find your fingers are more inclined to swell in the heat. If one or two rings aren’t enough for you, opt for midi-rings instead and wear them sparingly. No one wants to be struggling to remove stacking rings from swollen fingers. We tend to touch our skin and clothes a lot more in summer meaning we’re more likely to snag our jewellery on our hair and clothes. If you must double-up on your jewellery, use a multi-strand clasp to keep necklaces from tangling.
4 | Aim For Effortless
Everyone’s style goal for summer is to look good and feel good with minimal effort. When it comes to jewellery, aim for effortless. Wear your hair up to get it out of your face and off your shoulders; it’s the perfect opportunity to wear cute earrings like simple diamonds, geometric studs, or tiny stud earrings. Keep your style minimally effortless and staying comfortable in summer will be easy.
5 | Learn How To Care For Your Jewellery
There are countless ways you’re ruining your jewellery without even realizing it. Jewelry can only withstand so much. It’s easy for necklaces to snag on clothing, for earrings to get lost, and rings to discolor if you forget to take them off during household chores. Learn to care for your jewellery properly and you’ll avoid tears this summer.
