Stand out with the right jewellery this formal season

September 6, 2022 • 4 min read

As the end of the year quickly approaches, another school year is preparing to end. In addition to final exams, another important moment of the year is the highly anticipated formal or ball. As a momentous time in a student’s life, formal and balls are extravagant occasions celebrating one’s academic journey. Not to mention, they are an exciting social event that many look forward to all year.

Whether it be year 10, year 12 or university students, an essential element in the overall experience is the outfits guests wear to the formal or ball. They will cherish these photos forever, so they want to look their best to impress!

Often, people start looking for their ensemble months in the lead-up, searching for the perfect look.

Once you’ve organised your suit or dress, the next step to completing your look is to accessorise. Any jewellery won’t just do – to shine, you need quality pieces selected for the look you want to achieve on the night.

Stuck on what jewellery you should incorporate into your look? Let Midas Jewellery will help you perfect your ensemble.

For when you’re going for a classic vintage look

Are you going for a classical look? Classic styles provide a timeless appeal. It doesn’t matter if you are going for iconic Hollywood waves with an elegant black gown or a handy-down dress that is older than you, nostalgic and vintage styles are all the rage. You can never go wrong with this style option.

Opt for classical designs that have withstood the test of time to allude to a vintage aesthetic. A great pick would be pearl jewellery. Forever remaining in style, pearl designs offer an aged look full of grace and class. Pearl earrings are the perfect choice for any vintage ensemble, they always offer a sophisticated selection that will fit most designs.

Alternatively, Midas Jewellery proudly stocks a range of vintage-inspired designs. Using the brilliance of modern craftsmanship, we utilise styles originating from past decades and eras to create beautiful pieces that offer a vintage touch.

For when you’re going for a glamorous aesthetic

Wanting all eyes on you? If you’re going for an extravagant look or picture-decadent jewellery that sparkles at every turn, you need to channel a glamorous aesthetic with the help of diamonds!

Diamond jewellery possesses an unmatched brilliance and it is the epitome of glamour. If you want to go all out, why not drip yourself in diamonds with one of our many diamond necklaces? These glimmering designs are excellent for when you have a low-cut design as they will provide a focal point that enhances your look. We also have several unique pendants to choose from.

Have you decided on a dress with a high neckline, or are you wearing a suit? Instead of crowding the neckline, incorporate a diamond ring into your attire. With a hint of sparkle, rings can be a powerful accessory that breaks your outfit, especially with long sleeves.

Displaying some of the best diamond rings in Sydney, let our team help you find the right choice.

For when you’re going for a minimalistic style

If it is a minimalistic look you are trying to achieve, sometimes less is more.

For those that appreciate the beauty in simplicity, keeping your jewellery selection to a minimum can be just the right touch to keep your outfit in proportion and balanced.

For a minimalistic ensemble, try going for subtle, dainty designs. The delicate thin pieces act as complementary elements rather than stealing the spotlight. It is also incredibly classy and refined, providing just the right amount of dazzle without going over the top.

If you’re looking for a minimalistic jewellery selection, consider thin designs such as a chain bracelet or tennis bracelet. A thin plain band ring or earring studs can make a fine choice for such formal events.
