Specialists recommend that when it comes to jewelry, we should take into account the choice of metal shades and semiprecious stones. Autumn is the perfect season to match warm tones with outfits in the same shades. In addition, specialists teach us how to restore the shine of our favorite jewelry after summer.
What jewelry to choose this autumn to stand out
Jewelry is the perfect way to transform a dull outfit into a truly spectacular one. Especially during the autumn, when the shades of jewelry can perfectly match the warm tones of nature.
“This autumn, jewelry adopts warm tones and delicate textures to complement the season’s outfits. Gold accents remain on-trend, and gold remains a top preference, along with semiprecious stones. Minimalism and elegance continue to be in fashion. Thin necklaces, statement earrings, and bracelet sets are perfect choices for a stylish look.
In the cold season, jewelry lovers tend to choose precious stones that add warmth and color to their outfits, along with darker shades. Some popular semiprecious stones for this season include zircon, hematite, and onyx.
The jewelry worn in the summer season and the jewelry worn in the cold period have significant differences in terms of materials, colors, sizes, types of stones, and themes.
These differences reflect the needs and specific atmosphere of each season, allowing wearers to express themselves accordingly depending on the time of year. For example, in summer, light, thin, and delicate-colored jewelry is preferred, while in autumn, jewelry with a sophisticated look is chosen. They emit a sense of warmth, are darker in color, but also have shiny accents, such as zircon or diamonds,” stated Adi Răuți, jewelry store owner, for FANATIK.
Choosing the right metals for jewelry
Often we don’t know which is the best option for the metals used in our preferred jewelry in terms of shade. Whether we are talking about silver, gold, platinum, or rose gold, the choice often depends on personal preferences.
“White gold offers a refined and elegant look, making it suitable for special events during the cold season. It is a popular choice because it has a more neutral and cool shade. It fits well with the color palette that dominates this season. Yellow gold should not be neglected either, as it goes great with earthy and rusty tones found in nature.
Moreover, during autumn, we tend to wear warm colors, and a gold necklace or a unique bracelet complements these autumnal hues perfectly. As for rose gold, it remains a top preference of ladies and young girls in any season.
It emanates femininity and elegance, and fine jewelry in this shade is always a suitable choice. Another aspect to consider is the undertone of the skin when choosing the metal shade,” added Adi Răuți, founder of ARJewels.
Restoring the shine of jewelry after summer
After a summer where we exposed our favorite jewelry to water, sun, and sunscreen lotions, autumn is the time to restore their shine. Specialists advise us to do this with care and, if possible, with specific products to avoid damaging our precious ornaments.
“Jewelry can be washed with warm water and mild soap. Then rinse them with clean, warm water to completely remove the soap and any other residues. Dry them using a soft towel that does not leave lint or a microfiber cloth. It is best to avoid rough fabrics or kitchen paper, as they can scratch the surface of the jewelry.
For gold jewelry, you can use a gold polishing product that will restore their shine. It is important to avoid exposing jewelry to aggressive chemicals or any substances that could damage them. It is important to take into account the specifics of each piece of jewelry, whether it is gold, diamond, zircon, other precious or semiprecious stones,” also stated Adi Răuți for FANATIK.
