💫 How to Layer Jewellery Without Overthinking It
Layering your jewellery can completely change your outfit – but it doesn’t have to be complicated. With a few key pieces and a little intention, you can build stacks that feel polished without looking try-hard.
Here’s how to do it, Aurea style.
1. Vary the Lengths
Start with a shorter chain (like our Evil Eye Necklace), then add a medium pendant (like the Heart Locket), and finish with a longer, simple chain. The variation draws the eye and avoids clutter.
2. Mix Textures & Symbols
Pair something smooth with something engraved. Something bold with something dainty. Like the clean lines of the Book Locket next to a rope-style or flat chain.
3. Keep the Colour Palette Consistent
If you’re mixing metals, do it with intention. But if you’re just starting out, stick to all-gold or all-silver for a more cohesive stack.
4. Don’t Forget Earrings & Rings
Balance your necklace stack with minimal earrings – a single stud, or a small hoop. If you’re stacking rings, try mixing thin bands with chunkier ones.
5. Let One Piece Be the Focus
Your locket, pendant, or symbolic piece should take the lead. Let the rest frame it.
