From the Office to Date Night - How to Step Up Your Look with Jewelry

After a long day at the office, there is nothing better than knowing you have a night on the town to look forward to. Everyone needs a chance to unwind and have some fun. When it comes to getting ready for your night of fun, there are a number of simple and easy ways that you can step up your look without having to change your wardrobe. Here are some tips to help get you from the office to date night in a flash without sacrificing style.

Accessorize

If you don’t have time for a complete outfit change before date night, accessories make it easy to change and elevate any office look. Adding jewelry—bracelets, earrings, a necklace—can elevate a look with ease. Many love the stacked look of wearing all three, while others prefer allowing one or two statement pieces to speak for themselves. Whichever route you take, a touch of jewelry can take you out of “work mode” and put you in the mood to have fun.

Balance Your Neckline

When it comes to accessorizing, understanding how to balance your neckline can help you to highlight your best features. There are, essentially, two balance points to consider that can make a longer neck look shorter, and a shorter neck appear longer. To find your first point, it is suggested to use a piece of string and measure the length of your face from forehead to chin. Keeping your spacing in place, move the string down so that it starts at your chin and goes down your chest. Wherever the end falls is a perfect spot to end your tops. Any necklace placed in this area will make your neck look longer.

Your second balance point is found by measuring the widest part of your face, for some this may be temple to chin. You’ll want to use this measurement for the distance between your shoulders and your chest. This spot helps you to avoid looking choked by your neckline. For many, the perfect placement of jewelry lines up between these two spots. Find your balance, and have fun with it! You’ll be amazed at how different necklace lengths can change your entire appearance.

Stand-Out

We all know that jewelry can complement an outfit, but it can also make a true statement. You want your jewelry to elevate your look and reflect your individual personality. Whether you are someone who likes to layer their jewelry, or if you prefer minimalistic, stand-alone pieces, what matters most is that your style comes through. When it comes to combining different pieces, look for common ground. Utilizing similar metals and materials can bring your look together, ensuring it doesn’t appear mismatched. One of the most popular trends is utilizing moissanite and other lab-generated diamonds. Moissanite shines bright and can withstand daily wear and tear, just like a traditional diamond.

When it comes to leaving the office to enjoy a night out on the town, there’s no need to worry about an entire wardrobe change. The right jewelry can elevate any look and complement your individual style and taste. By knowing what to wear, and how to wear it right, you can stand out from the crowd without the added effort.
