As the festive season is fast approaching, confidence is high and before your ‘Pujo’ shopping comes to an end, you must make a checklist so that you don’t miss out on anything that is the trend this year, including jewellery.

If you are someone who loves visitng the stalls full of colourful and oxidised jewellery to picking exquisite pieces from the showroom, then here are some tips for you before you head out to purchase your favourite pieces.
Jewellery Tips To Opt For Ethnic Outfits:
In this regard, Dipu Mehta who is the Managing Director of Orra Fine Jewellery, said, "When it comes to complementing your exquisite ethnic attire, consider the magic of minimalist jewellery. Minimalist jewellery is all about refined subtlety with a blend of contemporary designs so that you express your unique style and heritage with grace and authenticity. Whether it’s a cultural celebration, or a festive gathering, minimalist jewellery is versatile and timeless, making it a long-lasting investment in your personal style."
Additionally, Amit Pratihari, who is the Vice President at De Beers Forevermark said that people are now more inclined to wear items that are meaningful, hold significance and play a prominent role in their everyday life, and the younger generation is much more keen to buy classic pieces which are lightweight and can be worn daily.
Eshwar Surana, who is the Managing Director at Raj Diamonds added, "Every year different looks make their way to the forefront of fashion, and it’s no different with jewellery. Diamond jewellery has long been a part of Indian culture and has gone through multiple fashion cycles making it one of the most popular types of jewellery today. Diamonds have a timeless appeal because they are considered to be the most valuable and desirable of all precious stones. This is because diamonds are rare and are often associated with luxury and wealth. Coloured stone jewellery is also being preferred right now."
So, these are a few jewellery options you can try to pair your ethnic outfits with.
Jewellery Tips To Ace Your Western Outfits:
Aditi Khandelwal, who is the director at Kicky and Perky suggested the following tips:
- Mix and Match Metals: Experiment with a blend of metals like gold, rose gold, and silver to add depth to your western look. Layered necklaces with different metal tones can create a chic, eclectic style.
- Statement Pieces: Incorporate bold, eye-catching statement jewelry into your ensemble. Chunky cuffs, oversized earrings, or a standout pendant can instantly elevate a plain western outfit, making it the center of attention.
- Theme Coordination: Match your western jewelry with the theme or color scheme of your outfit. For example, if you're wearing denim, opt for turquoise or leather-accented pieces to enhance that rugged, western vibe.
Additionally, Dishi Somani, who is the Founder of DishiS Designer Jewellry shared some invaluable tips to help you master the art of accessorizing: Embrace the simplicity, less is often more when it comes to jewellry:
- Choose one statement piece that complements your outfit without overwhelming it. Coordinate your metals that align the metal of your jewellry with your outfit's hardware. If your attire features silver accents, opt for silver jewellry, and do the same for gold. Mixing metals can be stylish, but it should be a deliberate choice.
- Consider your neckline by selecting your necklace based on your outfit's neckline. V-necks pair beautifully with pendant necklaces, while strapless dresses are ideal for choker styles. Balance proportions by adjusting the size and boldness of your jewelry based on your outfit. If your attire is understated, don't hesitate to wear eye-catching pieces.
- Conversely, if your outfit is already intricate, opt for more delicate jewellry to maintain balance. Personalize your style by choosing the jewellry that reflects your personality.

- Pearls of Wisdom: Pearls, the epitome of timeless elegance, can be your best friend during the festive season. Incorporate pearl studs or a simple strand into your ensemble to achieve an aura of refined grace.
- Earthy Tones for Warmth: Earthy tones such as rose gold, yellow gold, or silver can seamlessly complement the warm colours of festive western outfits. They exude a gentle radiance that perfectly accentuates your attire.
- Bracelets for the chic: Dainty bracelets serve as striking statement jewelry in western festive ensembles, amplifying their visual appeal and personal expression. These wrist adornments, often adorned with gemstones or intricate designs, accentuate one's style, adding a festive touch that complements the celebratory spirit and showcases individuality in the season's gatherings.
- Evoke Harmony with Geometrics: Opt for minimalist jewellery pieces that showcase geometric shapes like circles, triangles, and squares. These clean lines add a touch of modern elegance, effortlessly blending with the clean cuts of Western attire.
- Know Your Necklines: Different necklines demand different necklaces. V-necks pair beautifully with Y-shaped necklaces, while crewnecks shine with chokers or collar necklaces.
- Minimalist Rings: Adorn your fingers sparingly with minimalist rings – a few slender bands or a single, elegant statement ring can be the finishing touch your outfit craves.
- The Art of Layering: Skillfully layering minimalist necklaces can create a stunning visual impact. Combine fine chains with dainty pendants to achieve a look that is understated yet captivating.
- Personal Expression: Ultimately, let your jewelry reflect your personality and style. The festive season is not just about tradition; it's about embracing your uniqueness.
