The Ultimate Guide to a Layered Jewelry Look

At The Urbanista, we know how essential it is to develop and express your own style. A great way to do this is by mixing and matching necklaces, bracelets and rings to create a stunning layered look. In this comprehensive guide, we share our top tips and tricks to help you create the perfect layering look, no matter the occasion.

Necklaces: The foundation of your layered look

1. Choose different lengths

Start with necklaces of different lengths. This creates depth and dimension. For example, combine a choker, a medium-length necklace and a longer necklace for a playful effect.

2. Play with textures and materials

Mix necklaces with different textures and materials. Think of a fine gold chain with a chunky silver chain or a pearl necklace. This creates a dynamic and interesting look.

3. Add a statement piece

A statement necklace can serve as the focal point of your layered look. Keep the other necklaces subtle to ensure the statement piece really stands out.


Bracelets: for a complete wrist party

1. Vary in width and style

As with necklaces, variation works well with bracelets. Combine thin bangles with wider cuffs, and add a few beaded bracelets for a bohemian touch.

2. Mix metals

Don't be afraid to mix different metals. Gold and silver can work beautifully together and give your look a modern twist.

3. Balance is key

Keep an eye on the balance. If you are wearing a large watch, combine it with a few subtle bracelets. For a more striking look, you can wear multiple bracelets on both wrists.

Rings: The subtle detail

1. Play with size

Mix and match rings of different sizes. Wear a large statement ring on one finger and complement the rest with delicate, thin bands.

2. Different positions

Wear rings on different fingers and don't forget the middle and pinky fingers. Mid-ring rings (rings that sit halfway down your finger) also add a unique element.

3. Match with nail polish

Choose a nail polish that complements your rings. This will create a cohesive and stylish look.


General tips for a layered look

1. Keep it personal

The key to a perfect layered look is to let your own personality and style shine through. Don't be afraid to experiment and find your unique combinations.

2. Start simple

If you are new to layering jewelry, start simple. Slowly add more pieces until you are happy with the result.

3. Clothing and jewelry harmony

Make sure your jewelry complements your outfit. A simple, monochromatic outfit can be the perfect backdrop for an elaborate layered look, while a busy outfit might call for more subtle jewelry.
