A Guide On 'How Too' Style Your Gems

TIPS FOR STYLING YOUR GEMS

Besides gemstones, we’re pretty certain that shoes are a lady’s best friend. Shoe trends in 2018 are all about fun and come with a great reason to invest in the latest seasonal gems. With endless choices, both high-street and high-end, it’s tough not to hoard an assortment of black boots or rainbow coloured oxfords.

We’ve taken it upon ourselves to combine some very-helpful outfit ideas and tips for styling gems that are true and tried for every season and occasion. These go-to-combinations can really make your statement pieces pop, turning all heads towards you and your beautiful gems. Let’s get started on the most amazing gem styling tips and OOTD inspirations:

1. A combination of trendy casuals and chic formals, these glamorous oxfords are a big sartorial success. Rock them with culottes and tucked in tee. You can also style them with a beige suede button-down miniskirt, printed tee and a statement necklace to keep turning heads.

 - The Zola: Silver Bovine/ Metallic Gold

2. On days when coffee just doesn't cut it, classic footwear like our Benya's are a lifesaver. Team with your high-waist shorts, a pretty tee to instill energy into the most basic outfit. Or pair them with a floral dress and long necklaces so your style slays always. Another option? Go all white and complement these babies with a white crisp tee/cardigan and pencil skirt or skinny jeans (distressed maybe?).

 - The Benya Navy/ Orange OR Ballet Pink/ Metallic Gold

3. These brown and black steppers are everything but normal with their refined nostalgic vibe- perfect for work-wears like a skirt-suit or pantsuit. Standout with striped flowy skirts or vibrant wide leg pants with a neck-tie blouse to uplift its high-fashion feel. Or go all denim with a structured denim jacket over the shoulders for a charismatic street-style experience.

- The Liyana Diesel Toffee/ Black

4. Quirky and eclectic, glitzy metallic oxfords are a great piece to make you glow even more. Take your look to the next level with off-shoulders and tailored flared slacks. Include a classic trench coat on them chilly days. Or style them with a sophisticated dress, finish this look off with an embellished belt.

 - The Liyana Metallic Gold

5. These intricately designed vintage oxfords with fun pops of colour are a great way to brighten up your day with graphic pinafore tops/ oversized knits and cropped pants. Another look? A lovely laced dress/skirt with a slit. Or grab your favorite rompers, pull-on those black leggings (or just pull-on a jumpsuit) and add these gorgeous gems to stand out from the crowds.

- The Zola Coral Dots/ Diesel Brown

6. Polka dots in exciting shades are all the rage this season. Play dress up with these classic beauties. Pair these gems with casual tees, black or white boot-cut pants or midi tulip skirt for a casual yet chic look. Add some stone studs and a matching tote.

- Xolani Lime/ Maroon
