Which Jewellery Should You Wear According To Your Face Shape

Accessorizing has always been a very personalised choice of buy for each one of us and choosing the right jewellery according to your face shape makes for a big deciding factor.

Your face shape is important in defining the overall look of the jewellery, which is why this Black Friday Sale, we have decoded the tips and tricks in finding you your ideal jewellery match.

Each of our face shapes roughly fall under these six categories – Oval, Round, Square, Rectangular, Heart and Diamond and finding yours is not rocket science. The best way to define your face shape is to pull your hair back and observe the natural angles of your face. You can always sit back and compare this to the references given below for each of the 6 face shapes and find your closest match.

Oval

An oval face shape is defined as one that is long, with the widest point between the forehead and the temple. Those with an oval shaped face, have a rounded face and a curved chin, similar to the shape of an egg.

Those born with this face shape are privy to the most versatile choices as they are lucky enough to carry any jewellery. The length of the earrings or necklace should not be too long as it can make the face look even more elongated.

Hoops, studs and short to medium length earrings in teardrop, pear and geometric shapes are the ideal choices as they create an illusion of a wider face. Similarly, one should opt for shorter neckpieces with soft curving shapes such as pearls, and ribbons.

Round

A round face shape is equally wide as it is long, with the cheekbones being the widest part of the face which creates fuller cheeks. The idea is to wear jewels that would complement the face to make it look narrower. As contrasting to the oval shape, long styles are the most flattering match which would add length to the face. Long angular and geometric earrings and neckpieces are the ideal choice. Avoid wearing designs that would mimic the shape of your face such as hoops.

Square

A square face has a common width and height, same across the forehead, cheeks, and jawline. Those with a square shaped face have a strong angular jaw. The aim is to soften the angular curves with ornaments that can create drama and an illusion of a softer look. Earrings with rounded elements like hoops and long chandelier and long necklaces are a good choice. Avoid wearing geometric or angular shaped jewels.

We have found the perfect choice of products from our collection to accompany your face shape.

Rectangular

Rectangular face shapes are similar to square face shape but with a longer and elongated length. Short pendant earrings and choker necklaces will add definition to the width. Focus on chunky and solid jewellery with a defined look.

Our dancing heart earrings are one of our favourites to balance out this face shape.

Heart

Heart shaped face can be defined as one that matches an inverted triangle with a defined wide forehead and a small, pointed chin. One should wear accesories  that would create fullness around the jawline to create a sense of visual balance. Triangular ear pieces are an ideal option for this face shape as well as dangling earrings with roundness at the bottom. Princess lengths for necklaces add width and softness to the jaw.

We have curated an edgy mix of pure silver jewellery from our latest range.

Diamond

Diamond face shape is widest around the cheekbones and the width of the chin and forehead are the same. Those with this face shape have high cheekbones. Ear cuffs, pear shaped and linear earrings with detailing are most suitable. Any necklace with delicate detailing would complement this face shape.
