5 Must-Have Jewelry Styles for a Date Night

When it comes to looking the part for a special night out, jewelry can make or break your entire look.

Just like a bad pair of shoes, gaudy, tacky and over-the-top jewelry could be enough to scare away your date, not impress them. The key is to find jewelry styles that suit both your personality and wardrobe and pair them together with finesse.

While there is a myriad of jewelry styles out there, here are the top styles to consider for your next date night…

1. Metallic Elegance

Whether you’re a fan of gold, silver or rose gold, you can never go wrong with simple metallic jewelry for a night out on the town with your date.

For a first date, stick to dainty metallic jewelry, such as a simple pendant necklace and small hoop earrings.

Metallic jewelry should be a staple in collection. So stock up on gold, silver or rose gold hoops, a pendant necklace, simple bracelet or a stack of metallic rings.

2. Understated Sparkle

If you’re looking to add a little glamor and sparkle to your date night look for a fancier night out on the town, just remember to keep it understated and simple.

There really is nothing showier than sparkly diamonds, but you don’t want your jewelry to outshine who you are.

However, a simple pair of diamond studs, a dainty tennis bracelet or simple jewel pendant necklace adds just the right amount of sparkle to any evening outfit.

3. Chunky Statement

If you’ve progressed onto the fourth or fifth date, it’s safe to say you can get a little more creative and quirky with your jewelry.

There’s nothing wrong with showing off a little more of your personality and character with chunky, statement jewelry, especially on a day-time date.

However, remember to opt for just one piece of chunky statement jewelry, as too many statement pieces can border on the gaudy side.

Go for a chunky statement necklace, or dangly earrings to add a pop of color and character to your outfit.

4. Global Influence

If you’ve done your own fair share of traveling and have an interesting jewelry collection to show for it, this is a great conversation starter for any date.

Your globally influenced collection could range from ethic beads and earrings, handmade stone necklaces or semi-precious jewels. Don’t be afraid to wear these pieces with pride, but remember to keep the rest of your outfit relatively simple.

These more quirky pieces of jewelry tend to pair better with more casual outfits in neutral colors such as black, navy or white.

5. Earthy and Ethnic

In a similar vein to globally influenced jewelry, earthy and ethic pieces usually range from semi-precious stones and silver hand-made statement items.

Semi-precious stones are incredibly beautiful and also make for a great conversation starter. If you’re a collector of this type of jewelry, pick a few of your favorite rings or a statement pair of earrings for your perfect date night look.
