1. You don’t need to buy every trend

Fashion websites can sometimes make you feel like every new launch is a must-have. But that’s just not the case.

You should always consider carefully whether a jewellery design is just a passing fad… or whether you’ll love it so much that you’ll continue wearing it in the future.

Remember, the most expensive fashion is the kind you wear only once!

2. Pick items that match your existing jewellery

Which of your existing jewellery items do you wear again and again? They are probably the ones that you look good in and feel comfortable wearing.

If you match new items with your existing jewellery, you’ll build a collection that reflects your unique style and gives you many years of wear.

3. Classics are called classics for a reason

Classic jewellery never goes out of style. Consider timeless fashion icons like Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe and Jackie Onassis whose jewellery could still be worn now without it looking outdated.

Today too, many consciously-minded celebrities like Kate Middleton, Helen Mirren and Keira Knightley are famous for re-wearing their most classic jewellery pieces to red carpet events.

If you pick simple, elegant designs that stand the test of time, you too can recycle your jewellery from one time to the next, while keeping your look fresh.

4. Build a foundation

If you don’t own any essential jewellery pieces, that’s a good place to start when shopping. The rest of your jewellery collection can then be built upon that solid foundation.

Invest in these 3-4 core pieces that fashion stylists consider “jewellery essentials”: diamond stud earrings, a tennis bracelet, a solitaire pendant and an eternity ring.

Versatility and quality are the hallmarks of essential jewellery. A core piece will easily transform from daytime to evening, so try to choose items that look just as good with jeans or a little black dress.

5. Find a jewellery brand you love

It’s a non-brainer; having a good jeweller is vital. They should be helpful, reassuring and happy to answer any questions you might have. You’ll be amazed by what a professional tip or two can do!

For instance, you might discover which settings or metals are best for your lifestyle (and which are not), how to pick a statement piece for an important event or how to make your old jewellery shine like new.

Most importantly, a good jeweller will always direct you to the best quality jewellery for your budget.
