The Best Jewellery trends for women in 2025: Head to Toe
The 2025 accessory story is all about maximalism and individuality – bold pieces worn together to tell your story. From headbands and hair clips to layered necklaces and stacked rings, every accessory makes a statement. In fact, British Vogue reports that “2025 is all about maximalism” in jewellery, with more charms, layers and texture than ever. This guide covers the best jewellery trends for women 2025 from head to toe, drawing on insights from Vogue, Glamour, and Net-a-Porter. We’ll show you how to coordinate color palettes, transition pieces from day to night, and pick the perfect accessories for weddings, parties or casual outings.
Fashion colors for 2025 lean toward both vibrant and earthy tones. Pantone’s 2025 color is a rich Mocha Mousse brown, while fashion runways have splashed icy blues, petal pinks, marigold, and cardinal red. Jewelry in 24K gold hues and deep jewel tones will pop against these shades. For example, a 24K gold-tone necklace or clutch can warm up a winter white ensemble, while frog green or teal gemstone earrings add electric contrast to mocha or camel outfits. To nail color coordination, match your accessories to the dominant or accent tones in your outfit. A sea-foam emerald bracelet can echo a green dress, whereas a neutral metallic cuff (silver or gold) complements almost any shade. The key is balance: pair a bold colored accessory with muted clothing, or vice versa, for an eye-catching yet harmonious look.
For day-to-night versatility, keep your core wardrobe neutral (black, brown, navy, ivory) and change up one or two accessories for evening. For example, swap a small daytime tote for a sparkly clutch (think crystals or high-shine metal), and add a pair of 2025 statement earrings or a chunky bracelet. A simple beige bag can be swapped for a jeweled minaudière for dinner, instantly elevating the look. Even a casual jeans-and-blazer outfit turns glamorous by adding a layered charm bracelet and chandelier earrings. In short, stock your collection with convertible pieces: dainty studs that can stack under bold earrings, a mixed-metal choker that layers over longer chains, and a sleek watch that works at work and at a party.
Head Accessories
Hats, headbands, clips and sunglasses top the head-to-toe look for 2025. Knit bonnets and balaclavas – especially in bold colors like red or cobalt – have been spotted everywhere at Fashion Weeks. In Copenhagen street style, “the red bonnet was everywhere,” elevating winter outfits with one bold accent. Embrace this trend by adding a colorful knit head accessory to a neutral winter coat. For warmer months, decorative hair clips, barrettes and jeweled pins are having a moment. Vogue notes that head accessories are having a moment on the spring runways, with clips, ribbons and bows “boosting a colorful outfit”. For example, a large pearl hairpin or a sleek metallic clip can finish a ponytail or tuck back a side bang.
Sunglasses also count as head accessories: futuristic, oversized shades (think flat-top or cat-eye) create an instant fashion statement. Pair tinted icy-blue lenses (a top color for 2025) with pastel outfits for a monochromatic vibe, or choose classic black sunglasses for an edgy contrast. By night, trade your daytime visor or baseball cap for a sophisticated headband or jeweled headwrap that complements your evening attire. If you’re attending a summer wedding or outdoor party, a straw sun hat with metallic trim adds both sun protection and style.
Trendy Head Accessories:
- Knit Bonnets & Balaclavas – Bright and cozy for winter.
- Statement Hair Clips – Pearls, crystals or enamel pieces to dress up any hairstyle.
- Embellished Headbands – Velvet or beaded bands that glamorize an evening look.
- Oversized Sunglasses – Futuristic frames (flat-top, cat-eye) for daytime drama.

Necklaces & Chokers
Your neckline is a jewelry showcase in 2025. Layered necklaces are a top trend – think multiple chains of varying lengths and textures worn together. Net-a-Porter reports that “necklace layering caters to the ‘more is more’ aesthetic,” with cord-strung lockets and chunky chain loops leading the charge. Try stacking a thin pearl choker under a gold chain, or wear a long 24K gold-tone locket atop a shorter silver pendant. Mixed-metal necklaces (gold mixed with silver or bronze) are key, reflecting the idea that “the old ‘rules’ around sticking to either gold or silver [are] in the rear view”. For instance, drape a silver rope chain necklace together with a warm gold curb chain to add depth and shine.
Pearls are modernized for the neck too. Rather than classic strand-of-pearls looks, opt for asymmetrical pearl pendants or single-pearl chokers. Vogue highlights 2025’s “pearls, pearls, and more pearls” trend, including minimal pearl drop earrings and simple pearl necklaces paired with yellow gold. A sculptural pearl pendant (or a strand of alternating black and white beads) blends old-world charm with contemporary style.
- Daytime: Wear delicate mixed metal necklaces 2025 on their own, or with tiny pendants (initials, symbols). A short layered set in pale yellow gold with tiny gemstone drops complements a casual blouse.
- Evening: Amp up the glamour with a bold statement necklace – perhaps a chunky gold bib piece or a multi-strand crystal necklace. For weddings or parties, try a diamond tennis necklace or a choker encrusted with crystals to coordinate with formal dresses.
- Wedding tip: A matching necklace and earrings set (a demi-parure) is a timeless bridal choice. Modern brides might choose a minimal diamond or pearl necklace (like Sophie Bille Brahe’s cushion-cut style) to let their gown shine, adding layered chokers after the ceremony for the reception.
Trend Highlights for the Neck:
- Layered Chains – Mix textures and metals for an effortless, luxe look.
- Pearl Pendants – Contemporary and minimalist (think single pearl on a fine chain).
- Mixed Gold & Silver – Break the “rules” and wear gold and silver together.
- Chokers – Velvet or metal chokers layered under longer necklaces for contrast.
Complete your evening ensemble with a match from the necklace & chokers collection: a statement chain or a delicate pearl collar to suit any outfit.
Earrings & Nose Pins
Earrings are showstoppers in 2025. Spring/Summer runways favored very large, almost alien sunglasses, and similarly oversized earrings are ruling jewelry trends. Think dramatic chandelier earrings, bold geometric shapes, and even sculptural art pieces. Glamour highlights “2025 statement sunglasses,” and the same spirit applies to statement earrings. A single pair of eye-catching earrings can transform a simple outfit: for example, wear a chunky earring (like an oversized gold hoop or a bright enamel drop) with a monochrome dress for instant polish.
Gold is everywhere – especially artificial gold hoops 2025. These are thick, oversized hoop earrings in yellow gold finish. Vogue notes Missoma’s chunky mixed-metal hoops were a sell-out, indicating continued appetite for bold circles. Even faux-gold hoops add glam without heaviness. For daywear, a moderately sized gold hoop (or a wavy hoop earring) looks fresh with denim or a summer dress. For nights out, switch to a statement hoop or a drop earring with crystals or pearls.
Mix-and-match is also big. Wear one silver earring and one gold, or pair a pearl stud with a metal jacket earring. The old idea of wearing only one metal is “officially in the rear view,” Vogue says. Modern pearl earrings – asymmetric styles and single-drop earrings – are key pieces: e.g. one dangling pearl on one ear, tiny gold hoop on the other. If you have multiple piercings, stack minimalist studs up the ear or try a beaded cuff.
- Daytime: Small hoops or studs (silver or pastel enamel) that coordinate with office wear. Subtle styles like pearl huggies or basic gold hoops keep it professional.
- Evening: Dramatic dangles or heavy hoops. Baroque chandelier earrings (crystal or gemstone) add “instant glam” and are perfect with updos
- Bridal: Opt for sparkle – chandelier diamond earrings or a pair with pearl drops complement a wedding dress beautifully.
- Casual: Beachy shell or coin earrings echo the coastal trend. Even a fun beaded hoop or playful tassel earring can enliven a jeans outfit.
Also consider a delicate nose ring or stud for an edge. A small gold or diamond nose stud is surprisingly elegant and pairs well with any earring combination. (Nose rings continue to trend, especially on summer festival styles.)
Earring Trend Checklist:
- 2025 Statement Earrings: Large, bold shapes that draw attention.
- Chunky Gold Hoops: Oversized (even square-shaped) gold hoops.
- Modern Pearl Earrings: Asymmetric pearl drops and studs.
- Mixed Metals: Pair a silver earring with a gold one for a contemporary look.
- Ear Cuffs & Climbers: Sculptural cuffs and ear climbers worn alone or with pierced earrings.
Check out the latest earrings to elevate any look – from minimal studs to festival-worthy drops.
Bangles, Bracelets & Wrists Accessories
Armwear gets attention in 2025 – bracelets, bangles, cuffs and watches are all about making a statement. Think stacks and cuffs: wear three or four bangles on one wrist, or slip on one wide cuff as “armour,” as designer Anna Jewsbury describes. Double up cuffs on both wrists for maximum impact – stylists even call wearing one cuff on each wrist “double cuffing”. Real Simple confirms “chunky cuffs offer a modern yet retro flair,” especially in sculptural silver or gold. So look for silver organic cuffs 2025 – wide, nature-inspired bracelets with hammered or fluid shapes that feel contemporary.
Charm bracelets are back too. Layer a delicate chain of meaningful charms (lockets, coins, crystals) with simple bangles during the day. By night, swap to a solid metal cuff or a luxury bejeweled bracelet. Glamour suggests charm bracelets as a top trend for spring 2025, and coastal necklaces often come with matching charm bracelets (like seashell or coral charms). Watches have regained popularity: classic small-faced bracelet watches (in leather or metal) add vintage elegance. A slim Cartier Tank style or a leather-strap watch with a thin gold face is “ladylike” and goes with everything.
- Daytime: Stack thin bangles in mixed metals with a watch. Include a pop of color with a beaded friendship bracelet or leather wrap bracelet.
- Evening: Wear a single bold cuff or a sparkling tennis bracelet. A chunky cuff in silver or a velvet box-clutch strap adorned bracelet dresses up cocktail attire.
- Wedding: Gold bangles and diamond bracelets are classic. For an Indian wedding vibe, incorporate gemstone-studded bangles or kadas.
- Casual: Keep a boho-chic feel with braided cuff bracelets, wooden bangles, or nautical rope bracelets.
Arm Accessory Trends:
- Stacked Bangles & Cuffs – Mix widths and textures on one arm.
- Mixed-Metal Bracelets – Blend silver, gold and rose gold in your stack.
- Charm Bracelets – Layers of meaningful talismans for a personalized look.
- Wide “Organic” Cuffs – Sculptural cuffs (often in sterling silver) for a modern statement.
- Classic Watches – Slim, vintage-inspired watch faces with metal or leather bands.

Nails & Clutches
Your hand accessories and clutch are the finishing touches. A sophisticated clutch bag is essential for day-to-night looks: choose a neutral tone or metallic clutch that complements your jewelry. For weddings and parties, a satin or sequined clutch in chocolate brown or emerald green (reflecting this year’s palette) adds luxe contrast. Casual outfits pair well with woven or beaded clutches. Always try to coordinate the clutch color with your outfit accents: e.g., a mocha bag with gold jewelry, or a pastel pink clutch with rose-gold pieces.
Don’t forget about hand jewelry beyond rings. In South Asian or bridal fashion, ornate hand harnesses and anjaal (bracelet-ring chains) are traditional picks for 2025 weddings. If you’re the bride or attending a cultural wedding, a Farshi anjuman (hand chain set) in zircon or gold is stunning. For a Western bride, skip gloves and show off delicate hand accessories like a simple emerald or pearl bracelet and matching ring.
- Clutch styles: Envelope clutches for casual day looks; structured mini bags with crystal embellishments for events; soft leather pouches for understated chic.
- Hand Accessories: Stack a few cocktail rings together (see Fingertips below) and match them with a couple of bracelets from above. If wearing an evening glove (opera length or lace) pair it with a statement ring peeking out.
- Nail art & rings: Freshly manicured nails (or artisan nail wraps) act as a mini-accessory—neutral shades let your rings shine, while a bright or glittery polish makes even simple rings pop.
For everyday elegance, keep one standout piece – like a jeweled ring – and a neutral clutch. For parties, you might wear multiple rings on several fingers and carry a hand-beaded clutch for full glamour. Browse chic hand accessories to find unique pieces (like ornate hand chains or Mithila designs) that can spice up any outfit.
Finger Rings
Finger bling is a must. Rings in 2025 are rarely solitary – it’s time to stack and mix. Layer multiple thin bands on each finger (in silver and gold), or wear one large cocktail ring per hand. Vintage-inspired rings are trending: signet rings, gemstone solitaires, and unique cuts. Vogue notes that engagement rings are moving toward colored stones and asymmetrical shapes, which you can adapt for fashion rings too. For example, wear a sideways (east-west) bar diamond ring on one hand and a chunky turquoise cocktail ring on the other.
CZ and artificial stones allow chunky rings in bold colors without the price tag – these are perfect for a 2025 party or wedding look. Think large sapphire or emerald-colored stones in gold settings. Also consider openwork rings and stackable midi rings on upper fingers. If you have nail art, match your rings to it: e.g., silver filigree rings over a frosty blue manicure.
- Daytime: Minimalist band rings or a simple signet. One delicate midi ring on a finger or two.
- Evening: Statement rings and stacked sets. A big cocktail ring with a gemstone or crystal becomes the focal point.
- Weddings: In addition to an engagement ring, brides can layer delicate bands on adjacent fingers for sparkle. Coordinating rings with your earrings or necklace (pearls with pearls, for instance) ties the look.
- Casual: Play with mixed metals. For a lunch out, a stack of slender silver bands plus one hammered gold ring catches light without looking formal.
Rings Essentials:
- Stacked Finger Rings – Mixed widths, worn across several fingers.
- Gemstone Cocktail Rings – Oversized stones for parties.
- Signet Rings – Vintage-inspired heirloom shapes.
- Midi & Toe Rings – Tiny bands on upper fingers or toes for a boho touch.
Find delicate and bold rings to accentuate every finger. Remember Zendaya’s new east-west diamond ring? That asymmetrical trend is perfect for anyone who wants a fresh take on classic rings.
Ankles & Shoes
Finally, anklets and foot jewelry anchor your outfit from the ground up. 2025’s beachy, coastal cool mood means think seashell charms, pearls, and nautical motifs. A thin silver anklet with a shell or starfish charm pairs beautifully with sandals and a flowy dress. For a tropical wedding or party, a strand of freshwater pearls around the ankle is unexpectedly elegant. If you’re wearing flats or sandals to a summer event, add a turquoise-beaded anklet to echo sky-blue or coral in your outfit.
Color-wise, choose anklets that tie into the color scheme: e.g. a gold chain anklet with a chartreuse enamel charm will pop against navy trousers. During cooler months, anklets over opaque tights can peek out in a subtle way. For example, a black velvet ankle cuff or a layered silver chain works well with boots or heels.
- Sandals: Barefoot sandals or simple chain anklets bring boho flair.
- Heels: Dainty gold or diamond ankle straps can mimic the sparkle of bracelets.
- Casual: Rope or fabric anklets (with beads) are great for beach looks or music festivals.
- Weddings/Parties: Thin diamond chain anklets under an evening gown add surprise detail.
Complete your look with any standout footwear (from embellished mules to classic pumps) and a matching anklet. Our anklets collection has everything from dainty chains to bold charms. For toe rings and foot chains, match their metal to your other jewelry. Remember, jewelry at the ankles should complement, not compete – a little shimmer at the ankle looks polished with neutral-toned shoes.
By covering head to toe, you’ll be fully armed with 2025’s most covetable accessories. Experiment with coordinating color palettes (like pastel pinks and icy blues, or mocha brown with 24k golden color) so that each piece feels part of a cohesive story. And don’t be afraid to blend: wear those [mixed metal necklaces 2025] over a monochrome outfit, mix silver organic cuffs with golden bangles, or stack colorful bead bracelets with sleek cuffs. The overarching message from fashion editors is have fun and be yourself – jewelry in 2025 is about personal expression.
Finally, remember: for weddings choose elegant, refined pieces (pearls and diamonds are forever); for parties go bold and experiment with height and color; for casual, use accessories to add life to basics. Layer, mix and match headbands, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings and anklets with confidence. With these trends and tips from Vogue, Glamour and Net-a-Porter, you’ll have an editorial-worthy ensemble from head to toe in 2025.
