Sapphire is one of the most enjoyable but also difficult Gemstones to Wear
How do you match a sapphire jewellery piece successfully? Sapphire, due to its blue colour offers a great variety of options. But this multitude of options is what stops most people from wearing sapphires together with other pieces of jewellery!
That is what we will try to investigate in this article and come up with simple solutions that will most likely make your life and jewellery options a bit less tedious and a lot more enjoyable!
How do you combine gemstones effectively with each other?
Matching according to the stone's colour
The traditional way of choosing your gemstones would be according to colour combinations. Sapphires, due to their blue colour, match very well with yellow, green and purple gemstones, making Citrines, Emeralds and Amethysts the ideal combinations for your sapphires. Colour-shifting gemstones in dark tones like alexandrites also fit well when worn together with sapphires.
Another very important aspect is what kind of jewellery you want to match. If you are wearing a diamond and sapphire pendant you could accompany it with matching sapphire and diamond earrings or citrine earrings for a stark contrast of complementary colours (blue/orange). If you are wearing a sapphire ring and want to wear a series of cocktail rings it would be a good idea to wear Amethyst rings and Emerald rings to create a nice rainbow-like effect on your fingers!
Matching according to the stone's properties
This one is a tricky one... Disregarding colour means disregarding your own tastes, but if meaning is your bread and butter you can start wearing and matching your gemstone jewellery according to the meaning you want to convey and the gemstone properties you like! For example, combining a Sapphire together with a Ruby signifies calmness and resoluteness, but also a fierce personality. Play around and see what combinations suit your character!
Outfits that match Sapphire Jewellery
A black gown or mini dress is the safest choice when wearing stunning Sapphire Necklaces and Earrings. The combination gives off a mystery, a femme fatale allure that is hard to resist. Many celebrities have used this combination in the past like Angelina Jolie and Monica Belucci.
Another beautiful way to wear diamond and sapphire jewellery is by pairing them with a skirt suit. This is an outfit especially well fit for your work environment or a social gala.
A simple-cut dress is always a nice way to match your favourite jewellery. Also, another way to make your sapphire jewellery pop more is to wear it together with bright colours like yellows and oranges.
This lovely colour contrast of the outfit will make your diamond and sapphire jewellery pop like never before!
Lastly, another nice touch is incorporating other blue-toned accessories in your outfit so you can match them with your sapphire jewellery!
Hair and Makeup
If you are wearing diamond and sapphire jewellery or pendant necklaces, a wise thing would be to consider your hair and your makeup.
A black or blue eye shadow would be ideal as it would match your sapphires, but not overdoing it with the makeup would be key. Wearing your hair up (in a Hepburn fashion) will allow your stones to shine bright! Natural beauty with natural gemstones is the ideal combination
When Is it appropriate to wear Sapphires and Diamond Jewellery?
Almost at all times, but it also depends on your job and way of life. If you work in a jewellery boutique there is an extra reason to wear nice gemstone jewellery. Stewardesses, CEOs, and Managers can all integrate Sapphire and Diamond Jewellery into their wardrobe to a certain extent!
If you want to go for a more down-to-earth everyday look you can tone down the carats and make your combinations of gemstone jewellery less prominent.
Following your tastes in fashion and jewellery is always the wisest thing to do but let us not forget the circumstances!
Staying chick while having the time of your life is all fashion is about!
