What to look for in everyday jewellery

August 11, 2023 • 3 min read

What’s your go-to everyday jewellery? While many of us keep most of our cherished jewellery for important events, few pieces are privileged to see daily use.

We all know jewellery can entirely transform one’s look. Not only can it help you shine at your most significant events and functions, but jewellery can also make a difference in your everyday style. Yet, you don’t want to go over the top for an accessory you would wear each day casually.

Finding a piece of jewellery that you can wear daily can be challenging. You would want something that adds a hint of interest and breaks up your ensemble, but you don’t want something that isn’t practical. It has to be something that could become your signature piece that people often see you sporting.

So, the question is: what should you look for in everyday jewellery? As one of the leading jewellers in Sydney, you can trust our expertise.

Here is what you need to look for when searching for the perfect everyday jewellery.

Practicality

The most significant quality you should seek in an everyday piece is practicality. If you’re wearing a design each day, you will want it to be practical and your daily activities. It shouldn’t get in the way of your everyday tasks. Instead, it should sit there without interruption.

This means going for practical elements. Think of low settings and rounded edges. You want to avoid jewellery that constantly gets caught.

For a practical piece, the White Gold Domed Diamond Stud is the perfect functional pair of earrings. Rounded and minimalistic, this pair is the definition of practical. The shape provides little threat of getting tangled in hair and can easily be forgotten when worn, introducing the perfect sparkle while out and about running errands.

Flexibility

Another quality you will want is flexibility. This means you want jewellery easily paired with most of your wardrobe. You should avoid bold colours that will limit your wardrobe choices.

If you are to wear it every day, you’ll want it to effortlessly pair with whatever you are wearing and not have to think twice. Go for a simple design that doesn’t have any bright colours, and if the piece has bright colours you like, it shouldn’t take centre stage and act more as a small accent.

We recommend sticking to one metal colour and a white diamond or light-coloured stone rather than a coloured one.

A necklace that would easily pair with any look is the Round Brilliant Diamond Pendant. A simple round brilliant diamond is as flexible as they come. Pair this with the most casual of outfits or with a dressier ensemble – no matter your plans, it will go with any style.

Subtlety

You will want to look for a subtle design for an everyday piece. A subtle piece will easily blend in, providing the hint of sparkle you want in a design while also not overly drawing too much attention to the accessory.

We suggest looking for a dainty look. A singular diamond is also recommended as this will provide just enough brilliance without spoiling it with too much happening.

A bracelet that adds the slightest hint of sparkle is our Brilliant Cut Diamonds Bezel Bracelet. It offers a dainty chain design with a bezel-cut diamond in the middle. Minimalistic and straightforward, it is the most subtle of bracelets.
