Choosing the perfect ring to suit you

When trying on rings, you’ll quickly find that not every style looks as good on you as it does in the window. There is a ring style and diamond shape to complement every finger type so let’s have a look at the typical guidelines to follow when ring shopping!

LONG FINGERS
Princess Cut & Round Stones are especially flattering for long fingers. Wider bands or bold style rings can also complement long fingers well.

SLENDER FINGERS
Smaller stones can help make thin fingers appear wider. Thicker bands also work well to widen the look of your finger.

SHORT FINGERS
Oval, pear or marquise stones help lengthen the appearance of short fingers. Slender, narrow bands create the illusion of length.

WIDE FINGERS
Go for wide Oval, Marquise, Rectangular or Emerald Shapes. Narrow stones will make fingers look wider. Medium to thick bands, cluster style and larger settings flatter wider fingers.

BIG KNUCKLES
Thicker, heavier bands will draw attention to the ring instead of the middle of your finger.

SMALL HANDS
Keep the overall proportion of your ring small. Small round, princess, oval or heart shaped stones will work well to complement your hands.

LARGE HANDS
Larger hands can easily get away with bulky, chunky style rings. Get creative and find something that complements your personality.

Choosing the right necklace for your neckline

Finding the necklace to match your outfit can be a tricky business! While its great to explore your creativity, there are some standard rules to follow to ensure your necklace compliments your neckline.

V-NECK
We Recommend- A Pendant necklace which mimics the shape of the neckline to pull the eye to the cleavage area.

HIGH
We Recommend- Long chains or pendants to draw the eye down and lengthen the body.

ASYMMETRICAL
We Recommend- Necklaces that aren’t symmetrical to complete the overall asymmetrical look.

BOAT
We Recommend- Long elegant beaded necklaces that won’t distract from the neckline

COWL
We Recommend- A short pendant or choker as to not interfere with the busy neckline.

SCOOP
We Recommend- A necklace with volume, layers or multiple strands to take up the large space between your neck and neckline.

SQUARE
We Recommend- Pendants with rigid angles to compliment the angular neckline.

STRAPLESS
We Recommend- Chokers or short pendants leaving your décolletage bare and drawing the eye up away from the stomach.

SWEETHEART
We Recommend- A curved necklace that has width to balance the open décolletage.
