Statement jewellery is a large, unique, and fashionable piece that allows you to portray your personality. You can also make a statement about your mood and creativity with this particular piece of bling.

It is the one jewellery piece that is big and beautiful enough to captivate the attention of people, serving as the core of your attire. By wearing the right kind of statement jewellery with your outfit, you can make heads turn in a crowd. 

Be it a western outfit or a traditional one, you can always jazz it up with a statement necklace,  a chunky bracelet, a pair of dangle earrings or some stackable rings. 

Do not worry if you feel underdressed for an occasion, you can always create a striking look with a statement piece. All you have to do is be creative and choose the right piece for your attire.

Statement jewellery is mostly worn with plain clothes. You can pair blue jeans and a black T-shirt or a white shirt with a statement necklace or even create a 'neck mess' by layering chains of different sizes and designs around your neck. 

You can also compliment the different chains with a chunky stone pendant to accentuate your look.

You can style your casual loose-fitted kurtis with a pair of large, ornate jhumkas or wear black pants with a white silk shirt and complete your look with gold plated stackable rings along with a neck mess.   

A pearl studded choker or a kundan neck piece with a plain shari will create a beautiful 80s vibe. 

You can also pull off the perfect ethnic look with Afghan jewellery pieces. With solid coloured sharis or kurtis, a pair of large Afghan jhumkas or a long Afghan necklace can add the right pops of colour the outfits might be missing.  

It is generally recommended you wear only one statement jewellery to maintain the balance and centre of attention. However, you can always twist the conventions and go for what suits you the most!
