We are sure that you must have heard of capsule wardrobes. They are, after all, nothing new. The most basic ones include everything you can pair together to create multiple outfits. Well, we have something new for you. A  jewellery capsule collection. Sort of. Well, not really. We are here to talk about the jewellery essentials you need to have in your jewellery box. These will be investment or non-investment pieces that you absolutely need to have in your collection. They are items that can be used with multiple things and will not go out of style so easily. The collection of must-have jewellery is something we all need to have for the days we are running late and do not really know what to wear. A small collection of essentials ensures that you can blindly reach into your jewellery case and come out with a winner. 

An essentials jewellery kit has multiple things ranging from everyday things to more statement pieces. A must-have kit has all the basic items that everyone needs. But it also has room for some personality revealing things that you yearn for occasionally. With this, let us see the list of must-have jewellery that every Indian girl needs. 

Must-Have Jewellery Essentials

Accessories can make or break your outfit. Whether you are going to your workplace or a party, each jewellery piece has a place of its own. Even though you can match each outfit with a different piece of jewellery, it is easier to have a box of jewellery essentials that can be worn to multiple places. These are mostly classic items that fit the vibe of most events and outfits. So, here is our list of must-have jewellery for your jewellery box. 

Stud Earrings

We bet that the first thing you go for when unsure is a pair of stud earrings. We get why. These simple and small pieces of jewellery are perfect for every outfit and every occasion. They can be worn to the gym, the pool, work, and parties. There is no occasion a stud to odd for. A pair of diamond studs is also appropriate for all ages. Additionally, studs come in a multitude of designs. They can be quirky or minimal in a variety of sizes. So, a pair of stud earrings is the first item on our list of must-have jewellery essentials.

Must-Have Jewellery: Hoop Earrings

A slightly dressier basic is a pair of hoop earrings. They are a classic that has a cool attitude about them. A pair of hoop earrings is also one that fits every occasion and style. They can be big, small, thick or thin. The constant however is their ability to make a statement without being completely over the top. We suggest you keep a pair of thick and then hoops each for different outfits. 

Bangle Bracelet

Bangle bracelets have made a comeback in recent years. And they have come with a set of variations too. The classic silver bangles are easily stackable and create the most beautiful sound. They have now become essential with all ethnic outfits. If you do not prefer the think stackable ones, you can easily opt for the cuff like bangle bracelets. They are more statement worthy. But the basic formula remains the same, they can be worn with multiple things!

Pendant Necklace

Pendant necklaces are a great way to wear something meaningful close to your heart. If nothing meaningful, they are a beautiful piece of jewellery that styles up any outfit. Easily layered, this essential is a must-have jewellery for you. You can go as minimalist or as maximalist as you want with these and they will never go out of style. Pendant necklaces also come in a variety of designs, metals and finishes. Go and find yours now. 

Chain Necklace

Chain necklaces are a great minimal set to have to pair with your earrings or pendants. They can fit any occasion and any outfit that you opt for. If not layered, the newer trendy chains are more statement worthy. They can bring the style factor up a notch without any effort.

Pearls Around the Neck

A classic that never goes out of style is a layer of pearls around your neck. They are clearly passed down for a reason. You can get pearls in various sizes and necklaces in multiple layers. But we suggest investing in a single strand necklace with medium-sized pearls. They feel youthful like this without grabbing too much attention. If you cannot afford real pearls, you can just as easily opt for imitation ones. 

Must-have Jewellery: Rings

A jewellery box essential is a set of rings. These rings can be of various styles and aesthetics, From thick to thin and dainty to chunky, rings are a great way to add styling elements to your outfit. We suggest keeping a set of signet rings and a set of stackable rings. They quickie add glamour to your overall look and are sure to make you stand out. 

Styl Tip: Traditionally different metals are not worn together to maintain cohesion. But if you enjoy having a mix of metals on your hands, go right ahead. 

Stone Jewellery

Playing with metals is fun, but stone jewellery is a much more colourful version to have fun with. We love stone jewellery because of the instant dimension it adds to any outfit. An emerald set with a black dress? Instant winner. They are perfect for adding a bit of colour to any neutral outfit or with other jewel tones. If you are starting your journey with stones, invest in earrings and rings before moving on to neckpieces. 

Styl Tip: Stones with neutral outfits are always hit. You can also experiment with mixing jewel tones together to create a unique look. 

Oxidized Silver Jewellery

An Indian girl’s must-have jewellery piece is anything in oxidized jewellery. Also known as junk jewellery, these pieces are perfect for practically every ethnic outfit out there. You find a multitude of designs from extra simple to completely over the top. We suggest having a few things from this category with yourself. These include a pair of statement earrings, a simple necklace, a big drool-worthy neckpiece and a couple of rings. This might seem like a lot but we assure you that you will not regret investing in them. 

This was a list of what we think should be your must-have jewellery. The absolute essentials for your jewellery box. Remember to add a couple of things that are just your own. After all, every capsule must reflect the wearer’s personality. Additionally, know that all the items mentioned above have variations in them. So find what suits your style the best.
