Be it amethysts, diamonds or pearls, fake or faux, platinum or gold, earrings or neck adornments, there are countless ways to get festive with jewelry this holiday season. With so many choices and styles abound, almost anything goes, though the key to getting the jeweled look right is to avoid wearing it all at once.
One key trend is layering so take stock of what you have and pick up pieces that will go with your existing collection. Similarly, mixing metals is no longer a faux pas, though we suggest keeping the styles the same. (If you’re wearing antique gold, steer clear of pairing the piece with something modern and silver.)
Go ahead and break the rules but have some common sense: you want to look adorned, not overdone. These gorgeous gems are festive and fun so read on for our dazzling picks.
