How can you match diamond jewelry with your outfits?

Looking for inspiration on how to combine your diamond jewelry pieces with style? Here are three Messika tips for an always-perfect silhouette. How should you wear diamond rings, bracelets or earrings? Rule number one is to think about the style and fit of your outfits:

- with tight or short sleeves, opt for a powerful diamond bangle bracelet. When stacked, it will create an ultra-trendy cuff effect.
- for an everyday casual-chic silhouette with jeans or a white shirt, thin diamond rings add the perfect touch of sparkle.
- with a strapless or thin-strap dress, enhance your neckline with diamond pendant earrings.

Trend tip: for a subtle bold touch, dare to wear a statement piece like a double diamond ring, complemented by other, more discreet pieces such as one or two chain bracelets.

The stacking trend

More than ever, the art of stacking is a signature Messika style. And it’s a trend that deserves a closer look.

This fashion statement of stacking diamond jewelry pieces creates timeless, ever-changing designs. Play with your diamond rings, bracelets or earrings by combining different pieces. Whether you're at the office or out for the evening,
brighten up your wrists with a mix of diamond bracelets. Create the perfect contrast by pairing a delicate piece like the Skinny bracelet with the powerful Move Noa bangle.

Trend tip: to master this exercise in style, remember the rule of three. Combine three pieces at a time or highlight three areas of your silhouette with a ring, earrings and bracelet trio.

The art of combining colours

An exceptional stone with an intense and neutral radiance, the diamond perfectly suits a range of shades and materials. So, make sure you play with contrasting colours and golds between your diamond rings, bracelets and earrings. To enhance your looks, find the perfect match for your skin or hair.

• The warm, powerful yellow gold illuminates matte skin and dark hair.
• White and pink gold complement both light and dark complexions.

So, whatever the season or your skin tone, you can mix and match pieces to suit your mood. Also remember to combine shades or choose complementary colours for your outfits and diamond rings or bracelets. The turquoise blue of the Lucky Move collection contrasts perfectly with warm ochre and orange tones, while the white mother-of-pearl brightens up powder pink or yellow-toned complexions.

Diamond earrings: a touch of asymmetry

Be daring, experiment and imagine new ways to match your diamond earrings. Add a touch of originality to your looks with asymmetrical diamond earrings. Mix the bold So Move pendant earrings on one ear with a more delicate piece like the Gatsby barrette single earring on the other. If you have several piercings on your ears, you can enhance the effect by playing with the volume of your diamond earrings.

In keeping with the iconic asymmetrical trend, the My Twin earrings with their trio of quirky diamonds will instantly enhance your silhouette. For an even bolder look, and if you’re dreaming of a painless piercing effect, Messika has designed a range of single clips earrings that cover the full length of the ear. These distinctive diamond pieces will complement your most beautiful evening gowns with a contemporary yet never classic twist. Asymmetrical, mismatched or single-hoop diamond earrings will energise your silhouette with a touch of class.

How can you choose the right diamond jewelry for your body type?

Just like an accessory or a piece of clothing, diamond jewelry can change your look in the blink of an eye. But how can you find the right balance for your figure?

• If you have short fingers, thin diamond rings with a stretched pattern create the perfect optical illusion to elongate the hand. The pear-cut diamond in Fiery rings is the ultimate style choice. On the other hand, if you have long fingers, you can experiment with stacking and add more diamond rings.
• To help your wrists look more slender, try to wear something supple and avoid bracelets that are too tight. For a slim figure, diamond bangle bracelets are ideal, as they provide just the right balance without weighing you down.
• Think about your face shape and posture for your earrings. The most important rule is to play with contrasts. Your earrings should have lines that are opposite to those of your face. Hoop earrings will soften angular faces, while pendant earrings will enhance rounder faces.
