Coco Chanel
Coco Chanel said: "Simplicity is the key to true elegance." Which so accurately describes the concept 'Less is more', which sounds like a cliché but if you look at the world of design today, you can see how the Scandinavian minimalist approach is reflected in designed spaces, product photography and interior designs. The world of fashion and jewelry have also adopted the Scandinavian approach that values simplicity, functionality and calmness.

So what is minimalist jewelry?
Basically, minimalist jewelry is jewelry with a delicate and light design that upgrades the outfit or the general look.
Minimalist jewelry is suitable for people with a super simple and clean fashion style, but also for people who like bold, big and bright items.
What's great about minimalist jewelry is that it manages to add volume and presence to an outfit without going overboard.
They are usually small items with a simple design or a set that is a solid color or with a small number of stones or neutral details.
The overall effect is very pleasing to the eye as it is a clean and refined design.
These jewels can be seen everywhere today. Whether with celebrities or fashion influencers, everyone has their own version of minimalist jewelry and how to wear it.
Can I combine some minimalist jewelry?
Yes of course and even desirable! That's all the fun in it. Minimalist jewelry can look amazing layered.
You can focus on one hand, for example, with several rings on the ring finger and then other rings on the thumb or index finger. Alternatively, you can spread the rings on both hands for a more refined look.
The layered design can also be applied to bracelets, earrings and necklaces. The very nature of minimalist jewelry allows you to wear multiple items without it looking cluttered.
However, don't feel like you have to wear a lot of minimalist jewelry. A simple necklace or bracelet design can look amazing, without the need to add more.
Should the minimalist jewelry be of the same metal?
There's no denying that if you wear a metal of the same color as gold, rose gold or silver, it can make a real statement.
However, there are no rules when it comes to jewelry. I actually like to play with the metals and mix colors, which creates a striking effect.
What's great about minimalist jewelry is that it's so delicate and elegant that you don't have to be afraid to ruin the outfit by mixing materials or even different stones or designs. This may add an interesting contrast to your look.
Minimalist necklaces
The problem with necklaces is that they can often be heavily styled that you can only wear with certain colors or clothing.
Especially when the neck area draws all the attention if you wear a big necklace. Therefore, in such a case it is important to match the chain to the garment.
On the other hand, minimalist necklaces can be worn anywhere, whether it's a family picnic, shopping, or even an evening event!
Minimalist necklaces can be an amazing addition to any outfit. A silver design with small stone accents or simple gold designs combined with delicate elements are timeless and never go out of fashion.
You can wear a longer necklace and combine it with a simple choker to really maximize the look.
Monogram necklaces or with a birthstone pendant can also be a great way to create a personalized look.
Minimalist earrings
Minimalist earrings are a perfect addition to any look, as they can be combined with other jewelry in the same design style.
When you choose minimalist earrings you may find a slightly higher level of design than other jewelry due to their small size compared to items like bracelets and necklaces.
A combination of silver and gold together can work beautifully. A play of colors of the metals adds an interesting contrast while still maintaining the minimalist jewelry aspect.
If you have multiple ear piercings, this is another great way to incorporate minimalist jewelry into a cool layered look.
You can choose gold and combine different styles of earrings, for example tight earrings with drop earrings that complement each other.
Another interesting way of styling is mixing some contrasting stones such as pearl or crystal. A very unusual and refreshing style.
Minimalist rings
Let's face it, the best kind of jewelry are pieces that can be worn every day. Many ring designs can be bold and bold and not suitable for everyday wear.
Many rings can also have important meanings and messages, such as signet, engagement or marriage rings. These usually earn their permanent place on our hands over the years and many other rings don't quite fit together design-wise, making it difficult for us to create a matching layered look.
However, minimalist rings can often slip on our fingers and it's like they've been there all along!They can definitely add to the items we have on our fingers because of their delicate and simple designs.
Choosing a minimalist ring design can also be great because of their functionality. For the most part, they look great on any finger and allow a game of styling however you like.
Minimalist bracelets
Minimalist bracelets can be worn in pairs, threes, or even four together! A simple cuff design can look so effective when layered with other bracelets of the same design.
However, a single bracelet can also look amazing. If you are wearing a watch, consider adding a bracelet in a similar color or design to complete the look.
Minimalist bracelets can be worn effortlessly and easily from a day outfit to an evening look. Mix and match with other jewelry elements to bring out the maximum style in your outfit.
