Layering jewellery is one of the simplest yet most impactful ways to elevate your look, whether you're heading to brunch, a meeting, or a night out. At Zohreh V Jewellery, layering is more than just a trend, it’s creating a look through beautiful, meaningful pieces.
In this guide, we’ll share our top tips for curating the perfect layered look, necklaces, earrings, bracelets and rings included. Whether you're a minimalist or a maximalist, you'll find styling inspiration to suit your personal style.
1. Start with a Focal Point
Every great layered look needs a starting piece, a hero item that anchors the rest. This could be a statement pendant, a bold gemstone ring, or a sparkling earring charm for a hoop.
At Zohreh V, we love using celestial motifs, like our Limited Edition Labradorite & Diamond Necklace or Silhouette Sunburst Pendant, to create a centrepiece that draws the eye without overwhelming your look.
✨ Tip: Keep your focal piece a little longer or larger than the others to create natural depth and interest.
2. Mix Lengths for Dimension
Layering works best when each piece has room to shine. For necklaces, combine short, mid-length and long chains to avoid tangling and keep each detail visible. Try:
-
Beaded Necklaces or choker chains at 13”- 15"
-
Cable or Station Bead chains at 16-18”
-
Longer layering chain at 20-22”
Our Adjustable Chain Necklaces or extender chains make this easy allowing you to customise lengths to suit your neckline and outfit.
3. Combine Textures & Styles
Don’t be afraid to mix textures. Contrast a delicate cable chain with more shine like our Barleycorn chain or Snake Chain. You can also blend:
-
Gold & silver for a modern mixed-metal look
-
Beaded Necklaces with engraved or celestial charms
-
Fine chains with gemstone pendants
The contrast creates a rich, layered story, especially when you combine pieces with personal meaning.
4. Stack Earrings with Intention
If you’ve got multiple piercings, you have a whole canvas to work with. Start with a statement hoop with an earring charm in your first lobe piercing, then taper to smaller studs, flatback earrings or tiny hoops.
We love styling our Celestial Huggies with Diamond Moon flatbacks for a dreamy yet balanced ear stack.
5. Ring Stacking: Mix Shapes and Band Widths
When stacking rings, variety is key. Combine plain textured bands, gemstone set rings, and sparking diamonds rings across different fingers. Leave space on one or two fingers for a clean contrast.
Try pairing our Celestial Diamond Band Ring with a Diamond Open Ring and Labradorite Grecian Ring for a celestial-inspired combo.
6. Make It Personal
Jewellery is deeply personal. Choose charms, birthstones, or symbols that hold meaning to you, like our Zodiac Pendants or Personalised Necklaces. Your layers should reflect your story, mood, and moment.
