The vibrant red-coloured gemstone, Ruby is one of the most desired gems. Known to be the birthstone for people born in the month of July, its bright red colour not only looks pleasing to the eye but according to the legend it also has incredible magical powers to keep the wearers protected from enemies. In some culture, it is believed that Ruby is the symbol of energy, love and passion. Not matter, if you are born in July or if your favourite colour is red, a ruby-studded jewellery piece is a must-have in your collection. It would not only uplift your personality but is also a great way to try a new look rather than wearing the same old and cliched diamond jewellery. Here are a few important style tips to consider while wearing a ruby necklace.
Consider the skin tone
While wearing ruby jewellery to accentuate your looks, it is vital to know if you have the right skin tone to carry the look gracefully. Typically, ruby-studded rings and bracelets look better on people who have warm skin tone. But, how can you know if you have a warm skin tone? Here a few simple to identify warm skin tone:
- You have veins that look green, instead of purple or blue veins
- You look better while wearing earthy colour dresses like green or brown
- You get tanned easily but never get sunburned
This is not to say that the people with cool skin tone should not wear ruby jewellery, but ruby complements warm tones better.
Know the occasion
Ruby jewellery is sure to add a touch of glamour and elegance to any outfit you wear be it traditional Indian wear or the classic LBD (little black dress). So, if you are attending a wedding or any other traditional event, ruby jewellery would be the perfect accessory to flaunt your immaculate taste in fashion. You can match your saree with a ruby-studded pendant or wear a bracelet to create that perfect contrasting looks.
If you are going for a more formal event like a corporate party, or an award function, teaming up your gown with ruby jewellery would complete your looks and make you stand out from the crowd. Make sure that you choose the right pair of footwear to complement your dress, and you are sure to be the cynosure of all eyes at the event.
Consider the colour of the outfit
It is no brainer that the ruby jewellery will not look appealing if you pair it with a red dress. It is paramount that you choose the right colour dress to make your jewellery stand out. The vibrant red would look great against the neutral and subtle tones like white, black, and beige. When teamed with a white saree or a beige dress, the red beauty of the stone would be the focal point of your ensemble. To add more glam to your looks, you can pair your dress with a pair of red pumps.
Ruby jewellery is always in vogue, and it suits women of all age groups, making it a truly timeless classic jewellery piece.
