Romantic walks by the beach, enjoying quality time with friends and family, or attending a beachside event—no matter the occasion, the right jewellery can transform any look. Whether you’re a trendsetter eager to master coastal chic or someone who’s just looking for a sparkle that could rival the sun, we’ve put together some of the best jewellery pieces sure to make a splash.

Standout jewellery for a beach look

What jewellery to wear to the beach? For daytime, you want to capture the sunlight with dainty pieces, and at night,bold, statement jewellery that steals the spotlight under the stars. You want to look fab but comfortable in the sun and the breeze. This selection unlocks the secret to turning heads by the shore.

Get the look

Subtle Sophistication

Quiet luxury is becoming the opposite with all the attention it’s been getting. But it is quiet. Subtle, understated looks. When it comes to beach jewellery, go for dainty pieces to let your outfit or swimwear take the spotlight.

The Maya Lariat Necklace, for example, will accentuate an outfit with a daring plunging neckline. The Juca Coral Frost Necklace works as a delicate yet elegant addition to an evening dinner by the bay. The Chandani Sea Breeze Lovelink Bracelet embodies the very essence of quiet luxury, a bold but classic design.

Opting for dainty pieces is also a practical choice. For one, they don’t feel as heavy as other pieces, allowing you to frolic about in the sun. It also lets you say goodbye to big and awkward tan lines that you’d otherwise get with large and bulky necklaces and rings.

Seaside Stones

Go for jewellery pieces studded with ocean-inspired stones for the ultimate beach look. Each piece echoes the beauty and tranquillity of the ocean.

Among the stars of seaside stones, aquamarine is a clear standout. Its captivating blue tones are reminiscent of the sunlight filtered through crystalline waters. Capture this sight with the Cherie Aquamarine Earrings or the Cherie Aquamarine Eternity Ring.

Of course, no discussion of ocean-inspired stones is complete without pearls. Pearls enhance your look with their understated charm, making them the perfect companion for both daytime beach strolls and warm evening gatherings. Luce Angel’s Halo Ring features three gorgeous pearls, mirroring the lustrous treasures found along the shore.

Lustrous Loops

Hoop earrings bring a playful yet chic vibe to your ensemble. Bigger hoops make an equally big statement, and smaller hoops bring a subtle, everyday elegance. They’re the perfect, nautical accessories to be worn all day long.

Hoop earrings and sunglasses create a harmonious balance that draws attention to your face. Imagine a white halter top, beige pants, a pair of classic aviators, and the Maya Huggie Earrings. Now that’s a look that embodies the sun, sand, and sea!

Coastal Cascades

The art of mixing and matching necklaces creates an ensemble that not only reflects the beauty of the coast, but also expresses your unique personality.

Combine different lengths, textures, and charms. The Calin Cable Chain Necklace and the Calin Solid Chain Necklace can serve as solid bases for your layers. Use statement pieces to tie everything together, like the Calin Diamond Pendant Necklace or the Juca Chartreuse Frost Necklace.

Layered necklaces go great with sundresses, swimwear, or breezy cover-ups for an overall easygoing look. Whether you’re soaking up the sun’s rays or dancing under the moonlight, each necklace creates a cascading effect that embodies bohemian elegance.

Things to remember before you bring your jewellery to the beach

Regardless if you’re going to go into the water or not, there are some things you need to consider if you’re planning on donning a beachy look.

Remove any jewellery before putting sunscreen on.

Some metals react negatively to the ingredients in your sunscreen. Because sunscreen is a non-negotiable no matter the weather, just remove your jewellery before you slather some on your face and body, and put them back once it’s been fully absorbed by your skin.

Be careful of the sea and the sand.

Saltwater is corrosive, and sand…well, it’s coarse and rough and irritating. And it gets everywhere.

If you’re planning to go to the beach, go for pieces made of solid gold and sterling silver. Stones like diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds can also withstand harsh sands.

Make sure your pieces are secure.

To avoid losing your diamond earrings like Kim Kardashian did, make sure all your pieces are well-secured. Check the locks, stone positions, and the chain. Avoid wearing loose jewellery like rings that can slip off without you knowing.

Avoid reflective jewellery.

Wearing the right jewellery can attract attention, sure…but it might not be the attention you’d expect. Planning to go snorkelling or scuba diving? Ditch the diamond necklace or the golden hoops, as they may attract fish.

Watch out for your tan lines.

Even if you were to bathe in a tub of sunscreen, tan lines are inevitable when you’re out and about in the sun. Jewellery sticks to your skin, and they will leave a mark in some awkward places. Consider this when you’re planning to wear that vintage pendant.

Store your jewellery somewhere safe, cool, and dry.

Ultimately, the safest place for your jewellery will be somewhere safe and well-ventilated. Tarnishing can still happen even when you don’t go for a swim, as there’s salt in the sea breeze. Once you’re done strutting your stuff with your gorgeous accessories, make sure to wipe them down with a clean rag and place them in a safe place.

To all beach lovers...

In the dance of sun, sea, and style, the right jewellery will add a touch of coastal magic to your look. As the waves bid farewell to the shore, let the beach look that is uniquely yours leave a lasting impression.
