How to Style Diamonds, Pearls, and Statement Jewelry for the Holidays
The holiday season is here, bringing festive parties and joyful gatherings. It is the time of year when jewelry truly shines, catching the light like twinkling Christmas tree lights.
From family dinners to New Year’s Eve celebrations, the right accessories can transform your look. This style guide highlights how to dress for the holidays with jewelry inspired by Hauser’s 2025 Holiday Collection.
Dazzle in Diamonds: Simple, Classic Holiday Glamour
Diamonds remain the centerpiece of holiday style. This season focuses on classic gold and silver with plenty of sparkle. Whether you are heading to an office party or a formal event, diamonds instantly elevate your look.
Statement Necklaces
A bold diamond necklace can turn a simple dress into a standout outfit. Consider the Roberto Coin “Love in Verona” diamond flower circle necklace in 18K gold. It pairs beautifully with a strapless black dress or a jewel-toned gown.
A modern diamond collar or bib necklace, like Simon G.’s loop design, adds a contemporary touch to minimalist outfits.
Earrings and Bracelets
If necklaces are not your main accessory, choose diamond earrings or a diamond bracelet. Drop earrings, chandelier styles, or convertible designs offer movement and festive shine.
A diamond line bracelet, also known as a tennis bracelet, adds a clean, icy shimmer on the wrist. Diamond studs remain an effortless classic from day to night.
When wearing a bold diamond piece, keep other jewelry simple so the focus stays on the key accessory. For gift-givers, diamond jewelry is always a meaningful surprise and becomes a lasting memory long after the holidays.
Winter White Elegance: Pearls for the Season
Pearls are having a major style moment and fit beautifully into holiday fashion. Once considered traditional, pearls now feel fresh and modern with updated designs.
Modern Necklaces
Try a pearl necklace with unique character rather than a basic strand. Hauser’s offers Mizuki’s “Kissing Pearl” necklace in 14K gold, a chic and minimal design perfect for layering or wearing on its own.
A pearl choker with a silk bow adds a playful, vintage-inspired look and pairs well with velvet, silk, or knitwear.
Dangle Earrings and Mixed Designs
Akoya pearl dangle earrings in 14K gold bring movement and shine to your holiday outfit.
Pearls paired with diamonds, such as mother-of-pearl and diamond flower earrings, offer a polished combination of two classic gems.
Style Tips
Pearls look best against solid, rich colors. Wear them with a little black dress, winter white, or cozy sweaters. Baroque pearls or layered strands add a modern twist. Keep your look simple and let the natural glow of the pearls stand out.
Make a Statement: Bold Pieces for Holiday Parties
The holidays are the perfect time to wear jewelry that stands out. A single statement necklace or ring can pull your entire look together with minimal effort.
Necklaces That Stand Out
For a pop of color, Hauser’s Paraiba tourmaline and diamond pavé necklace in 18K gold offers bright blue-green tones that complement classic holiday palettes.
Layered Looks
Layering necklaces creates depth and visual interest. Mix a diamond smile necklace with shorter chokers or longer pendants for a balanced look. Pairing a bold necklace with simple earrings keeps the look cohesive.
Cocktail Rings and Cuffs
A sapphire or diamond cocktail ring, an artful cuff, or stacked bangles can complete a modern holiday outfit. These pieces work especially well with sleek dresses or jumpsuits.
Holiday style is about expressing personality through your jewelry. Choose pieces that make you feel confident and festive.
Whether you are gifting jewelry or wearing it yourself, each piece becomes part of a holiday memory. Here’s to a season filled with style, warmth, and a touch of Hauser’s sparkle.
