With the appearance of a spectacular green dress in your wardrobe, you have to solve the problem of combining it with jewelry. Color is not easy; to select accessories you need to know some nuances that allow you to complement your outfit with stylish jewelry and jewelry made of precious metals.
Rules for selecting jewelry for a green dress
In the green color spectrum there are yellow and blue. A pure color is obtained by superimposing two adjacent ones on top of each other. This color has many shades; the palette includes both very light and very dark. The most popular of them are mint, light green, emerald, olive, spring, mustard, viridan, khaki, sea green.
When choosing jewelry, you need to focus on the shade: those close to yellow will look great with warm-colored jewelry, and those adjacent to blue mean combinations with cool colors.
The antagonist to green is red, so you can choose contrasting accessories for a dark-colored dress.With delicate light tones it will look flashy, and with emerald or malachite it will look interesting and fresh.
Neutral additions would be beige, gray, white accessories for dresses in light shades of green and brown, black for dark outfits.
You can use jewelry that matches the dress, but subject to the following conditions:
- green is repeated in an outfit only once - either in shoes, or in accessories, or in jewelry;
- if there are stones in the jewelry, then they should be translucent, not very saturated, best of all, a couple of tones lighter than the clothes.
Costume jewelry or jewelry?
For everyday and business looks, only discreet jewelry in neutral tones or modest jewelry made of precious metals interspersed with natural minerals is appropriate. For daytime outings, do not use colorful, bright, provocative colors of massive jewelry, rhinestones, or gold.
Evening dresses look great with larger jewelry sizes. This can be jewelry, gold, silver items with natural or artificial grown stones, necklaces with Swarovski crystals, pearl threads, jewelry with rhinestones. It is worth choosing matte decorations for shiny fabrics, and calm materials will require sparkling additions in the evening.
What jewelry goes with a green dress?
The main criterion for matching a green dress is minimalism, which dictates restrictions on the use of such things. Three is the maximum number of decorations that are used in an outfit, while combining with each other the material and style of execution. Less is possible, more is not possible.
Important! Consider even these recommendations as purely theoretical, because a green dress is self-sufficient and often in style does not require any additions to the head, neck or arms area.
Many girls limit themselves to interesting drop earrings and a bracelet, matched to each other. You can complement the outfit with small stud earrings, a large brooch and a thin ring. In a trio, only one decoration has the right to perform the solo part. In this case, it is a massive silver brooch, earrings and a ring only complement it and together highlight the magnificent color of the dress.
Products made from precious metals, being universal additions, are suitable for both everyday outfits and evening outings. Necklaces, beads, earrings made of semi-precious stones, Swarovski crystals, bracelets and brooches with rhinestones and pearls look great.
Colored
A green outfit can be combined not only with matching jewelry, but also with contrasting colors. For example, an emerald dress goes well with fuchsia jewelry, a malachite outfit is wonderful with coral beads, and spring greenery goes well with raspberry earrings.
Dark shades of grass are very romantic in combination with pink or blue decorations, and in tandem with yellow, brown or blue they look very fresh and stylish. Such tones can be diluted with white, but only in evening backgammon, and for everyday looks it is better to use black.
The delicate tones of the dress are ideally complemented by sea green, silver, and gold jewelry. A dress made of green fabric with a print suggests the presence of jewelry that matches it in one of the shades.
Important! Perfectly selected jewelry matches the tone of the shoes.
Metals
Gold and silver jewelry goes very well with a green dress. But There are nuances in using them with this color:
- It is better to complement a business or casual look with silver accessories;
- gold looks gorgeous in evening looks;
- silver is intended primarily for light-colored fabrics;
- bronze and gold are gorgeous with the darker shades of the dress.
For business and casual style, chains, earrings, and rings should be quite modest, almost invisible. For special occasions and evening looks, you can take more massive gold, bronze, and silver items.
Important! These recommendations are suitable not only for metal products, but also for jewelry that imitates them.
Minerals
When choosing jewelry with natural minerals, be guided by knowledge of the color spectrum. Stones with a warm tint are suitable for greenery with a yellow tint - the color of a green meadow, chatreuse, khaki, citrus, olive. Complete the look with amber, citrine, Siamese diamond, rauchtopaz or yellow topaz.
If the shade of the dress gravitates towards blue tones - spring, sea green, jade, trefoil, viridan, mint, emerald, green pine - then sapphire, blue topaz, apatite, turquoise, lapis lazuli are best suited.
The pink shade of the stone looks romantic on the green background of the fabric - rhodonite, rhodochrosite, rose quartz. With this color, the decorations will not be lost against the general background, and the image will be light and airy.
Transparent or dark stones are perfect for a classic outfit; amethyst or hyacinth are chosen for a holiday, and ruby, jasper, agate or garnet will be good as a single decoration.
