To allow copper’s toasty color to shine, try complementing simple copper jewelry with printed tops, shawls, and scarves. Copper bangles on your wrist could feature an undecorated, hammered texture that works with a leopard print, or try a slim-fitting copper bracelet for a dainty, delicate accessory to a crimson sleeveless blouse. Catch attention with the flash from a polished, intricately engraved ring, or show off your cheekbones with statement earrings that draw the eyes upward to your face.
Use copper necklaces to accessorize your neckline, whether you’re wearing a deep V-neck or boatneck top. As a general rule of thumb, pair low-cut tops with necklaces that sit higher up, and reach for longer, jaw-dropping copper pendant jewelry for high cut tops.
You can blend copper with other dark tones like burgundy, deep mahogany, or burnt orange, or contrast it with blues like turquoise and aquamarine. Pair copper jewelry with other copper accessories as a copper jewelry set, or use gemstone jewelry to introduce tonal and textural diversity. Amber and pearl are beautiful and natural materials that enhance copper’s rustic-organic appearance, while other gemstones like onyx, sapphire, and emerald play with color contrast.
