The Perfect Jewelry for Staying Home

During these uncertain times, many of us have been stuck in our homes for weeks, or even months. Being isolated can leave you feeling down and unmotivated to dress nicely, which can start decreasing your self-image. Negative thoughts like these can have a domino effect, harming your mental and physical wellbeing. Luckily, positivity can do the opposite, by boosting your mental and physical wellbeing.

Right now, humanity’s main goal is to stay safe, healthy, and happy – Valina might not be able to help you with the first two, but we can support and elevate your happiness! For those of us who are stuck at home, you can reinvigorate your positive thoughts by simply feeling a little more beautiful. With just a minute or two of effort, you can boost your confidence and feel ready to take on the world and your work. It is the little things in life that bring a smile to our faces, so let’s explore how adding just a little touch of sparkle and shine to your daily wardrobe can make a huge difference in your life while stuck at home.

Flashy Studs

The quickest way to add an extra touch of sparkle to your home wardrobe is by wearing more intricate and flashy studs. Many people with pierced ears have go-to studs they leave in most of the time, only occasionally changing them for special events. This means, even if these go-to studs are exceptional 1-carat diamonds or another dazzling and expensive gem like Emeralds, they lose their novelty over time. Anything you consider regular is not likely to boost your mood. So, if you are feeling down, consider replacing those regular studs you love with something like EDRH025-W. These flashy studs almost triple in size with the addition of the miracle plating and diamond halo around the center stone. These two simple, yet glamorous design features easily elevate your look – the light dances from gem to gem, crowning the diamond, and making you feel like a stay-at-home queen. These halo studs are also just as petite as regular single stone studs, meaning they will not get in your way or easily catch on things like dangling earrings could. Because let’s be honest, even if you want to dress up a bit while staying home, you also don’t want the hassle of clingy and easily tangled jewelry.

Huggie hoops, which are small enough to perfectly frame the ear lobe with no access dangle, are also perfect jewelry for staying home. Huggies are playful and just like the halo studs, they add a little more bling to your daily wardrobe than single stone studs.

Diamond Bands instead of Diamond Rings

As we can see, the perfect jewelry for staying home is typically something that will not take away from the comfortable style you are likely sporting. This means you want to wear jewelry that is so comfortable, you barely notice it is there until you look down to see its sparkle reflect back into your eyes. The problem with earrings is that you can only see their sparkle when looking in a mirror. Oftentimes, true joy comes from being able to see your jewelry all day long. If this sounds like you, a great option is a diamond band like CDD2981-1Y. Unlike a traditional ring with a center stone, this band is flat and smooth. So, even if it twists and turns, or if you stroke your hand against something, there will be no large stone getting in the way. Also, this band makes up for its lack of a center stone by displaying intricate detailing with its open kite-shaped design, diamond-accented tips, and polished gold kite-shaped embellishments. So, as you move your hand around, the lights and shadows will play with the ring, bringing a lively sparkle and shine to your day.

Yellow gold is also a smart choice while staying home, especially if your goal is happiness because yellow can subconsciously bring people joy. Psychologically speaking, by being the lightest and brightest hue in the color spectrum, yellow has an uplifting ability, bringing people cheer and hope, just like the sun does. So, if you are feeling down, consider adding a sun-kissed piece of yellow-gold jewelry to your daily at-home wardrobe.

Playful and Delicate Necklaces

NDL100-Y36

NDL100-Y36 is another beautiful piece of yellow gold jewelry that is perfect for staying home. This elegant 36-inch chain necklace features evenly spread bezeled diamonds along its length. The diamonds add a spirited sparkle to the design and the long chain makes the necklace visible to you without a mirror. Long necklaces are also nice stress relievers because you can twirl the chain around your fingers, which is a major bonus during these uncertain and fearful times. People get similar stress-relief from playing with their earrings, rings, and bracelets. And if something can easily boost your mood or decrease your stress, accept it with open arms.

PDD2878-W

Besides wearing stress-reducing jewelry, another great option is accessorizing with a neck contouring necklace. When we say a neck contouring, we mean a necklace that features a pendant that is perfectly shaped to fit you and not poke or dangle uncomfortably. For example, a flat crescent pendant like on PDD2878-W, is designed to perfectly hug the base of your neck. The design is thin enough that the necklace smoothly transitions from chain to pendant and back to the chain, resting around your neck almost exactly like a simple chain necklace would. Unlike a chain necklace, this crescent design gives you a dazzling sparkle from the graduating diamonds. Similarly, we do not suggest wearing a pendant hanging from a chain because those styles of necklaces often twist around your neck and the pendants get stuck on the clasp – that is not the care-free and easy jewelry look we are going for when staying home.

No-Fuss Bangles

Our final care-free jewelry suggestion for feeling beautiful while staying home is wearing a bangle. Bangles are better than bracelets when going for a no-fuss look because bracelets typically have chain extenders that can dangle and get in your way, whereas a bangle is one solid rounded design that perfectly hugs your wrist. A thin bangle is preferable for a more comfortable look because you will barely notice it is there while you wear it. Even though thin bangles are light, they can add a large amount of sparkle to your look, like with LDD415-P, a classic open-back 14K rose gold diamond bangle. This bangle will embellish your entire upper wrist with a brilliant stream of shimmering diamonds. Out of all the styles we’ve explored, this diamond bangle will provide you the most sparkle visible to your eye without a mirror, giving you the highest levels of endorphins. Whenever you look down, you will glow with joy because you will feel stunning.

Remember, our goal in dressing up and putting on accessories while staying home is to feel good about ourselves. So even though we suggest wearing more petite and uncomplicated jewelry for comfort’s sake, if you think bigger statement jewelry, dangling earrings, chain bracelets, or layering jewelry will bring you the most delight, then do it! Simply wear the jewelry you love, and in return, increase your internal self-love. By allowing yourself to feel beautiful, confident, and happy, you will easily make it through these hard times while you are stuck in your home.
