How to Style Jewellery at Work

Polished looks for professionals

Jewellery for the Modern Workplace

Styling business casual jewellery for work means finding the perfect balance between professional expectations and self-expression. Your selections should complement your outfit without coming into conflict with your corporate dress code or risking a safety hazard. Office jewellery can often be bolder than in stricter workplace settings where chandelier earrings or cocktail rings could compromise your ability to work. Think clear crystals, easy elegance and artfully layered looks.

A Guide to Styling Jewellery for the Office

The exact definition of professional jewellery will depend on your workplace and role, but you can choose pieces that radiate confidence while remaining office appropriate. Consider creating monochrome looks centred on a single metal or colour of crystal and add intensity through light-filled layers. Effortlessly poised pairings of necklaces and earrings can pull focus without becoming overwhelming, especially when worn with a classic blazer or collared shirt.

Jewellery Etiquette

Acceptable jewellery for the office can vary; a creative agency may allow more extravagance than a traditional legal firm, for example. Remember that suitable doesn’t have to mean stale. Aim for refined radiance and you can’t go wrong; a single statement piece can be transformative while subtle designs stacked to shimmer are equally effective.

Earrings That Work at Work

Studs, hoop, and drop earrings can all bring a new dimension to workwear ensembles. Business casual earrings can range from our iconic Millenia and cosmic Constella drop earrings to the punkish attitude of our Mesmera Attract studs and intricate savoir-faire of our Matrix hoops.

Hoop Earrings at the Office

Are hoop earrings professional? It all comes down to size. While exaggerated hoops attract attention, smaller hoops that hug the ear can be more elegant for the office. Huggies stay close to the earlobe, echoing the effect of a hoop but with a more minimal look. Our delicate Dextera huggies with interlocking detachable hoops offer the perfect blend of both styles. Maximise the impact by wearing hoops alongside studs or choose an unusual shape that honours your personality and your professionalism. Instantly elevate your everyday style with our Sublima hoops’ domed silhouette or our playful Matrix earrings.

Professional Earrings for the Workplace

Workplace earwear can be elegant or edgy, whether you stack studs and standout hoops or choose one perfect pair of earrings. Graphic shapes are always a striking choice; our Sublima spiked studs and ear cuffs provide punk-inspired style while remaining professional and are the perfect choice to complement the industrial chic of our Dextera bangles.

How to Style Smart Casual

Business casual and smart casual dress codes set the standard for appropriate office attire. Jewellery can expand your work wardrobe, serving as a tool of self-expression that lets you embrace your individuality and see tailored looks in a new light. Business casual jewellery is typically striking yet subtle, enhancing your outfits without becoming overpowering.

Classic and Coordinated

Styling jewellery for business casual looks requires careful consideration. Aim to reflect your unique sense of style by fusing exceptional craftsmanship and precision cut crystals with professional attire. Highlight one piece like our dazzling Matrix choker or build a cohesive look by combining several jewellery pieces from the same Swarovski family.

Jewellery Looks That Mean Business

Smart casual outfits can be more flexible than buttoned-up business looks. Don’t be afraid to play with your jewellery, styling pieces that share design characteristics to create layered looks that feel creative yet corporate-friendly. Earrings are a great way to formalise a more casual ensemble, whether you opt for a pair of delicate drop earrings or simple huggie hoops.
