10 Trending Jewellery Pieces To Gift Yourself This Diwali
In case you’re wondering what to shop for your in-house Diwali party this year amidst the pandemic commotion, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!
1. Elegant Studs
Just like any striking solitaire ring or an enchanting pendant necklace, elegant stud earrings are a must for every desi girl. Often continuing as family heirlooms, this earring type has always been one of the best choices when it comes to ethnic wear. While maintaining a note of simplicity, studs can not just be worn with any daily wear but will also radically complement the lavishness of your Diwali outfits. From small to large, embellished with stones to being oxidised, studs are every elegant women’s go-to choice for any festive occasion.
Shop this above stud from Tjori this Diwali, giving your jewellery collection a major refined touch.
2. Chandbalis
Deriving their name from the moon or chaand, these earrings are generally of crescent moon shape and are considered to be one of the most trending ethnic jewellery pieces. With the crescent shape of the moon standing as the base, designers create innumerable traditional designs everywhere. These hit back the market when Deepika Padukone wore these in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s, Ramleela. These are so trendy and ethnic that no other accessory can back your style up like this jewellery piece.
Take your ethnic wear up a few notches by renting this above Curio Cottage chandbali from Stylease’s collection this Diwali.
3. Multi-Layered Necklaces
There are probably a dozen different types of necklaces available in the market. However, a crucial statement neckpiece is essential when it comes to dressing up in traditional outfits. One such type of necklace includes multilayered ones, which go well with all kinds of ethnic wear. Wear something that oozes out a proper lustre and is finely crafted to help elegance meet both beauty & style.
So, this Diwali make a bold statement by renting The Johari’s Box necklace from Stylease and make an appearance beyond your own expectations.
4. Oxidised Necklace & Earrings
If there’s one way to describe oxidised jewellery, then it has to be chic and trendy. Not only do these beautiful pieces last forever, if taken good care of, but women of all age groups can also wear them easily. Giving that trendy tribal look, wear these with handloom sarees or ethnic dresses and kurtas this Diwali and bring on your distinguished side.

5. Statement Stone Rings
Ideal for any kind of festivities, turn on your chic side by accessorising your Diwali outfits with statement floral rings. Quite exquisite and different than preferable antique ones, be as desi as it gets and sport your favourite saree, anarkali or lehenga with such statement rings.
Pick rings adorned with simple white stones or colours that are chunky and vibrant thereby being in sync with the celebratory colours.
Rent this Curio Cottage polki flower statement ring from Stylease and be it aarti time or your family hour you’ll have it all covered by being ardently graceful.
6. Nose Rings
While a simple nose stud can act as a subtle style statement, experimenting with different kinds of nose rings can actually help you alleviate your ethnic wear to being edgier depending on the style you’re going for.
Try this nose ring adorned with pink & white stones from Limeroad and highlight the best of your personality this Diwali.
7. Bracelets
Just like traditional bangles, bracelets too have a long history in fashion. Though many desi women find it difficult to style ethnic outfits with bracelets, here is the ultimate trick- stick to one metal and keep it comfortable. Though mixing and matching might work well with Western outfits, when it comes to traditional wear always remember that less is more.

8. Toe Rings
There is no hard and fast rule when it comes to choosing an appropriate toe ring that goes with ethnic outfits. Keep in mind that comfort is key when searching for that perfect toe ring. Though metal toe rings might be the formal and tasteful choice, when it comes to an irresistible festival like Diwali, you’ve got to showcase the jazz and grandeur.
Get this beautiful toe ring from Limeroad and remember that nothing can bring the oomph and class out of your Diwali outfit this year than this perfect piece of jewellery.
9. Choker Necklaces
When the 90s grunge chokers came back into fashion, they took the world by storm. While women can often be seen rocking western wear with these, Choker necklaces look good with any ethnic outfit that has a deep, round or scoop neckline. These classic pieces go well with everything and even give you that rare opportunity to invest in a timeless classic jewellery piece that is insanely fashionable.
If you’re hosting an intimate Diwali party this year and don’t want to invest in something right away, you can rent this Prerto gold-plated choker embellished with Swarovski crystals and fine quality pearls from Stylease and go glam and grand!
10. Drop Earrings
A great pair of earrings definitely help you lift your facial features and outfit. It might be hard to overlook the beauty of the jewellery piece that you’re considering buying but it’s important to make sure that the jewellery you’re choosing helps you make the desired impression too. Drop earrings are one such type which adoringly complements round faces and help them look elongated.
