The best effortlessly chic dainty jewelry that you won’t be able to resist

While statement jewellery may make a big impact, dainty jewelry can be the perfect way to add a sprinkle of everyday sophistication.

Here are some of the prettiest pieces of delicate jewelry to go with your minimalist wardrobe. As the old saying goes, less is more…

Why dainty jewelry can make a strong statement

A piece of subtle jewelry can add a sense of refinement to your everyday style.

While you may not want to add a statement necklace or a large pair of drop earrings to your outfits each day, you can certainly add a delicate necklace or bracelet, a small ring or a pair of stud earrings.

One of the style “mistakes” that many women can make is not wearing any accessories at all.

Dainty jewellery can provide a way to easily add a finishing touch to all of your looks.

Dainty jewelry can also make the perfect gift. While it can be hard to get it right when trying to choose a jewelry gift for a loved one, a piece of elegant, subtle jewelry is likely to be well-received.

Whether shopping for yourself or for a gift, here are some of the best pieces of delicate jewelry to choose this season.

Dainty necklaces

First of all here are some of my favorite necklace picks for simple necklaces which are also super stylish. But scroll down for plenty of earrings, rings and bracelets too.

Dainty gold necklace

Most women either prefer gold or silver. If you love gold, how about a delicate gold necklace.

Even though the chain is thin, a longer length will still have impact.

You could also try a more contemporary, geometric style.

Just because you opt for a style which is relatively simple, that doesn’t mean you can’t choose a larger pendant for your chain.

Dainty bracelets

Of course, you don’t have to choose a necklace to finish your look. A bracelet is a great way to make your outfit feel more pulled together.
