The 2025 festive season has started to roll and it's time to pick the perfect outfits to celebrate the festivity with friends and family. While outfits are important, pairing them with the right jewellery is equally important. For those looking to change up their look, trying new combinations in your jewellery is the simplest and quickest way to try something fresh. Rhea Poddar Loyalka, Gemologist and Jewellery Expert, Mumbai shared ways to style gemstones with jewellery.
3 Ways To Style Gemstones With Jewellery
Here are ways to style gemstones with jewellery this festive season:
Coloured Gemstones
Rhea highlighted that with fashion silhouettes becoming more minimalistic in colour and form, the time for coloured gemstones has truly arrived - coloured gems in bright hues or pastel shades can complement any outfit this festive season. You can consider pastel pink gemstones like morganites to accessorise a cooler-toned outfit, while a bright gem like a red spinel or peridot can perfectly offset a jewel-toned outfit for the night.
Traditional Gemstones
According to Rhea, the setting of the gem dictates the general look of a piece of jewellery and differentiates it from being modern or traditional. Traditional gemstones like rubies and emeralds can be used in avant-garde cuts such as hexagons and cabochons instead of the conventional rounds and ovals. You can opt for modern bezel settings along with the use of metals such as platinum and titanium to create truly modern pieces of jewellery. Traditional gemstones, when carved, can also be a modern equivalent to the traditional faceted/cut gemstones.

Modern Contrast Jewellery
Rhea mentioned that traditional gemstones that are already part of one's heritage jewellery collection can be styled as a contrast to modern silhouettes. For example, a ruby pendant passed down generations can be worn with modern Italian chains rather than a conventional gold chain to bring some newness to one's festive look. Additionally, wearing one's traditional jewellery in new ways can bring some modernity to one's look. Layering many necklaces of different lengths together, wearing a pendant as a brooch, or accessorizing one's hair with heritage jewels are some ways to redefine one's jewellery collection to suit today's aesthetics.
