You know very well that very often, multiplying the accessories in your look is a risk between elegance and bad taste. It is, therefore, necessary to focus on a main accessory, accompanied by a few others that do not seek to take the spotlight. Wide-brimmed hat, bibi, panama and feminine hat of all kinds, if you wear them, you should make sure to know these few style rules to have the most elegant outfit possible! In this article, we will see together the association of two great figures of fashion, one with the other: the hat and jewelry.
These are legitimate questions, and we offer you the solution and explanation below.
The most suitable earring for your hat depends mainly on the type of hatyou wearn! The larger it is, the more your earrings will have to follow its trend. Chain earrings are perfect for this. The Panama can not be better accompanied than by a pair of stainless steel earrings that manage to combine chic and subtlety. With a wide-brimmed hat, opt for statement rhinestone drop earrings. With a fascinator, pearl through-earrings will be an immeasurable support for your look. Make sure to match the colors of your hat with your earrings for an aesthetic look.
What jewelry should you wear with a hat?
Some jewelry can never be a faux pas when worn with a hat. This is the case for rings and bracelets. Being very far from the location of the hat, their importance on your appearance cannot compete with that of your headgear. They are even recommended to balance your look so that it is “full” and elegant at all levels.
How to wear rings and bracelets with a hat?
Rings and bracelets complete your look by making your extremities shine. It is important not to let only your head shine to achieve a completely elegant appearance. However, be careful with stackingg” or “accumulation” with bracelets and rings, so as not to turn into “too much”. On the other hand, with a bohemian style, the accumulation of accessories is relevant, but you will appear less classy and chic.
How to wear earrings with a hat?
Earrings require more attention to properly pair them with a hat. Since they are located on the same level as the hat, if their shine and character are too intense, they could negatively compete with your hat on your appearance. They must remain in the background,accompanyingy your hat without taking the spotlight. But how, you might ask?
Simply by following these few rules:
- The size (length and width) of your hat should always be larger than that of your earrings (proportionally off course; we suspect that very few earrings are larger than hats). However, do not go to the opposite extreme, at the risk of making your earrings disappear from your face.
- The colors of your earrings should not be too bright or too contrasting with the color of your hat. With a white hat, silver-colored earrings are the most relevant, to leave the hat in the foreground. Opt for gold-colored earrings if you want your earrings to be in the foreground.
- Choose gemstones that are not too big so that they do not captivate the eye and steal the spotlight from your hat.
Dangling earrings are often the most relevant to accompany your most beautiful hats because their adaptability is very high. Fancy earrings are also an option, but their very strong and original character requires special attention to keep your hat as a “strong” element of your outfit.
How to wear a hat with a necklace?
Just like earrings, wearing a necklace or pendant means accumulating accessories on the upper part of your body. Which can result in unbalancing the elegance of your body.
We recommend that you instead opt for body jewelry, such as chest jewelry or belly chains, which are very trendy at the moment. These jewels will add elegance to your bust, which will balance your look.
If, despite everything, you insist on wearing a pendant or a necklace, follow these few rules:
- Keep your necklace simple and opt for models with a tight, fine mesh.
- Wear a rather discreet material like silver or white.
- Avoid gemstones that are too large and too shiny.
- Make sure to match the colors of your accessories: jewelry with each other and with your hat. Opt for a slightly more contrasting color for the hat, to make it stand out from your appearance.
Here are some options for aesthetically matching a necklace or pendant with a hat:
- A wide-brimmed hat with a sautoir necklace or a large pearl necklace. Since the wide-brimmed hat is very imposing, your necklace should follow this trend so as not to contrast too much with your other accessories and to display a coherent style.
- A panama with a symbol pendant or medallion, to stay on the lightness approached by the panama and its delicate style.
- The classic bibi with a pearl choker necklace. It’s a bit of a vintage style, but still chic and classy.
- A boater accompanied by an animal pendant or a solitaire, for a very original style.
- A cap with slightly wider link collars for a streetwear style that some of you might like.
Remember that these dictated “rules” are a safety net to avoid bad taste, but if your style suits you, that’s the most important thing!
