When pairing multiple statement pieces together you’re not giving each one of them an equal chance to shine, and ultimately driving them towards fighting for attention. Instead, pick one statement piece – it can range from anything, a multi-coloured stone-encrusted piece to one filled with varying charms or even one that’s elevated by a singular standout pendant. Now, pair these eye-catching necklaces with your minimal daily wear jewellery – like a short, flat gold chain or a clean chain-linked one. If you’re in the mood for an added level of personality, you could even throw in a smaller stone pendant. Stack these together and watch the magic happen.

When it comes to rings, have a distinct one adorn the centre of your hand, usually on your index finger or ring finger. Use this distinct ring as your midpoint and stack out from there – using wavy rings or midi ones for extra charm. You want to keep your daily wear jewellery stacking clean and in close syntax with one another.

Do: Keep a gap of an inch between your necklaces

There are days when you’re feeling extra chic, and you’d love to experiment with a royal stack. We’re talking sparingly charmed necklaces, striking single pendants, mini multi-hued stones. Experimenting is great, but here’s how you can achieve a clean look with your office wear jewellery without seeming like you went overboard: keep a gap of an apparent inch between all of your different necklaces. Additionally, don’t forget to put in minimal pieces in the middle to give breathing space to your stack.

Pro tip: if you want your stack to stay put, add in a little bit of tape at the bottom of the pendant.

Don’t: Pair heavy jewellery with heavy embroidery

The first rule of pairing heavy stacks with heavily embroidered or sequinned pieces is to choose the item you want to throw the spotlight on – and then focus on highlighting that. If you’re looking to elegantly elevate a spotlight-ready ‘fit, try doing it in partnership with a series of minimal and bare daily wear jewellery like everyday necklaces and rings stacked with ample space. If it’s the other way around, ensure you wear a heavily encrusted stack with breezy silhouettes in solid colours.

Pro tip: Try matching the colours of your charmed or stone necklaces to the colour of your outfit for maximum style harmony.

Do: Mix metals and stones

When achieving a statement-making stack, go for a hack that adds depth to your look: mixing metals. Take varying-shaped necklaces, be it gold, rose gold or platinum, and then layer them according to their hues. First comes in platinum, then a classic everyday necklace in gold, and ending it with a pretty rose gold pick. For extra pizzazz, add in a prominent pendant at the end of your stack.

Ultimately, the biggest and the most style-forward addition is the uniqueness you bring to the table with your daily use jewellery. While you master these dos and don’ts, don’t forget to throw in the special factor that is your personal sense of style. It could be anything from pairing your heirloom jewellery with newer, modern pieces you might have selected on your own for office wear jewellery, or finally bringing home a daily jewellery set you’ve always had your eye on.

Whatever the case may be, make sure the jewellery you adorn feels like an inspired manifestation of your story. Jewellery – especially your daily use jewellery – is supposed to be an extension of what makes you, you. It’s meant to celebrate everything you accomplish and add shine to all of your achievements. Only because a girl feels her happiest when she’s sparkling her brightest.

So go ahead, experiment, and let your daily use jewellery tell your unique story. Happy stacking!
