Lightweight, breathable looks that won’t stick or overheat.
When temperatures soar, the last thing you want is heavy, sticky jewellery clinging to your skin. But you don’t have to sacrifice style for comfort. With the right styling and smart choices, you can wear jewellery through the hottest days without irritation or discomfort. Here’s how to stay cool and look polished in the heat.
Go Lightweight
Choose finer chains, delicate rings, and dainty earrings. Not only are they more comfortable, but they also won’t trap heat or leave pressure marks on the skin.
Stick to One Statement Piece
Avoid piling on layers during a heatwave. Instead, choose one standout item—a bold bracelet, a striking pair of earrings, or a single pendant—and keep the rest minimal.
Choose Skin-Friendly Materials
Opt for solid gold, platinum, or high-quality sterling silver. These metals are less reactive with sweat and won’t cause irritation, unlike some base metals or costume jewellery.
Avoid Heavy Earrings
Long, heavy earrings can be uncomfortable in high temperatures. Choose studs, climbers, or small huggie hoops that won’t weigh down or irritate your ears.
Keep It Clean
In hot weather, jewellery can pick up sweat, sunscreen, and body oils quickly. Clean your pieces regularly to prevent buildup and maintain shine.
Jewellery to Avoid in the Heat
Wide, chunky metal bracelets
Leather or fabric-based accessories
Layered necklaces that tangle or stick to the skin
