How to Upgrade Your Jewelry Collection This Winter

Let’s face it – the weather is growing colder, and the holiday season is approaching fast! It’s a great time of year to upgrade your jewelry collection because of two important reasons: it grabs people’s attention, can act as a conversation piece, and can even be a great way to represent your personality. As custom jewelers in Denver, we pride ourselves on knowing how to upgrade jewelry collections–no matter what time of year it is.

If you’re looking to spruce up your winter jewelry style, don’t worry – we have some great tips on how to incorporate the perfect pieces into your collection during this chilly season.

Customize Your Wedding or Engagement Ring

The holidays are such a magical time for everyone – from children to married couples, young adults, and more. It’s a chance to show the people you love most that you care about them. And who better to show your love to than your sweetheart?

Valentine’s Day isn’t the only time to show the love of your life that you adore them. Whether you’ve been married for ages and are looking for a way to remind them how much you care or you are looking for a way to pop the question, the holidays are a great time to show them how much you care.

For those looking to get engaged, it’s a great time to start hunting for a custom engagement ring or wedding ring. Proposing to your sweetheart around the holidays is a wonderful way to show your love, after all! We strongly recommend reaching out to custom engagement ring experts like us here at Mark’s Diamonds.

For devoted spouses who are simply looking for a way to show their loved ones that their love is everlasting, updating your wedding ring is an absolute must. Especially if it’s a custom engagement ring or wedding ring, it’s important to make sure it’s handled by professionals.

Mark’s Diamonds offers a wide selection of setting options and exquisite diamonds, allowing you to design a unique and beautiful ring. Engagement and wedding rings are lasting symbols of love and devotion. Creating a custom ring lets you express your feelings and make the occasion even more memorable.

Buying a New Watch Is Always A Welcome Addition

Watches may not be the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about jewelry, but they truly hold that special charm. Think about how jewelry allows us to reveal our unique personalities and express ourselves. Similarly, while watches are essential for keeping time, they also offer a unique opportunity to showcase your unique personality!

Watches make an even bigger statement since clocks have been digitized. Let’s be honest – most people have a smartphone with a built-in clock that’s permanently in their hand! Thus, people who love to wear watches in the modern era typically gravitate towards timepieces that complement their personal style.

One part of a watch that a smartphone cannot replace is its appearance. Try as it might, even a smartwatch cannot compete with a Rolex when it comes to style and image (Tiffany Rolex, anyone?). If you are looking to upgrade or start your jewelry collection this winter, consider purchasing a luxury watch.

Layer Your Necklaces

Why choose between quality and quantity when you can have both? Layering your necklaces adds texture and depth to a look. A mix of pendant shapes and sizes as well as lengths can quickly become the focal point of your outfit.

Create unique layered looks out of necklaces you already have, purchase a layered necklace set, or find entirely new necklaces that complement each other. Layering your necklaces is a fun way to express your creativity, and it also gives you an excuse to go jewelry shopping (score!).

Stack Your Rings

In a similar vein, we also recommend you upgrade your jewelry collection by stacking rings. As custom jewelers in Denver, we understand that wearing several rings on the same finger can accentuate even the thinnest of bands, pairing boldness and delicacy in a gorgeous, eye-catching, and stylish way. Just like you would with necklaces, try using your existing rings or shop for new ones.

Take it from us, as some of the best custom jewelers in Denver – don’t shy away from mixing your metals. White and yellow gold contrast really well with each other!

Fresh Takes on the Classics

While upgrading and modernizing is not necessarily synonymous, it can be if you do it right. For proof, you only have to look at these modern takes on classic jewelry.

Pearls have been popular for years, and no jewelry collection is complete without a string of them. In fact, pearls have been one of the oldest known gemstones valued by humans for at least 8,500 years.

However, younger women might not be comfortable wearing a classic string of pearls very often. They might be afraid of looking more matronly than vintage or think of pearls as something their mother or grandmother would wear.

If you’re hesitant to include pearls into your jewelry collection, consider upgrading the idea with necklaces that feature between one and three pearls, pearls that are not white in color, or oblong-shaped pearls.

In addition, we also want to re-emphasize that mixing the metals you’re wearing no longer looks sloppy or careless. Now, it is a modern way to combine different metals so long as you find balance. White and yellow gold are a popular combination to start with, but any metals you like will likely work well together.

Hint at the Perfect Gift

Telling the people in your life what you want for the holidays removes some of the stress of buying gifts and ensures you will not be disappointed. However, it ruins the surprise. That does not mean you have to choose between receiving the perfect gift and the delight of opening something unexpected. Instead, hint at what you want.

Hints are not rude if they are subtle or seem accidental. Most people are grateful for the ideas. Additionally, they will feel clever for finding a gift they know you will love. Hinting at the perfect gift helps you ensure everyone’s holidays are truly happy.
