We’re sure you will agree that 2020 has been somewhat disappointing, to say the least. Events, weddings, festivals and social gatherings have sadly been cancelled and strict restrictions put in place to help protect us, but this hasn’t stopped us wearing our favourite jewels! We’re not saving our favourite pieces for the next big event, because we think every day should be a reason to celebrate and enjoy the special things in life. So, why wait around, here’s a guide to wearing your gemstones with everyday style for a subtle hint of luxury.
Gemstone Rings
Gemstone, and diamond rings in particular, aren’t just for signifying an engagement. They can also be worn as a mark of a significant milestone or event in life, such as wearing the birthstone of your birth month, a career success, to mark the birth of a child or a family heirloom. The beauty of a gemstone ring is that it can come in all shapes, sizes and styles, so there is the perfect ring for everyone. Colourful, bold designs such as extravagant sapphire or emerald rings are on trend this season, or you could opt for a more subtle touch with a delicate diamond to add some dazzle to your days.

Gemstone Pendants
Pendants are often the first piece of jewellery that someone may notice on you, alongside earrings, as they are closest to the eye level. This means that wearing a pendant can often become part of your signature style and a way to show your personality and unique look. We love pairing a simple diamond pendant for an everyday look with added opulence, but also appreciate that sometimes it’s time to make a statement and go big and bold! An easy way to dress up an outfit is by adding a touch of colour with a ruby, emerald, sapphire pendant. Or, go for a pop of purple with amethyst or introduce some icy blues with topaz. Whatever gemstone you go for it will be sure to create a talking point and add some sparkle to your everyday.

Gemstone Earrings
Diamond earrings are a timeless staple that will never go out of fashion. They are truly versatile and we believe you can never go wrong with a pair of beautiful diamond earrings! Depending on the occasion and your hairstyle, you can easily add a touch of class with a classic diamond earring style, or if you fancy something a little different you could try complementing your outfit with a pair of ruby, emerald or sapphire earrings. These will take you from day to night, whether you are enjoying a (socially distanced) meal or visiting a friend for a catch-up.
