At Shelly Jewels, we believe that jewellery is a powerful way to enhance your natural beauty and express your unique style. Choosing the right jewellery for your face shape can accentuate your best features and create a harmonious, flattering look. Whether you’re dressing for a wedding, a casual outing, or a formal event, understanding how to match jewellery to your face shape is key. In this guide, we share expert tips from Shelly Jewels to help you select the perfect pieces for your face shape, featuring our stunning collections.
Your face shape—whether oval, round, square, heart, or long—plays a significant role in determining which jewellery styles best complement your features. The right earrings, necklaces, or maang tikkas can balance proportions, highlight your eyes or cheekbones, and create a cohesive look. Shelly Jewels offers a variety of designs, from American Diamond chokers to kundan jhumkas, to suit every face shape and occasion.
To choose the perfect jewellery, first identify your face shape:
Oval: Slightly longer than wide, with a rounded jawline and forehead of similar width.
Round: Nearly as wide as it is long, with full cheeks and a rounded jawline.
Square: Equal width and length, with a strong jawline and straight sides.
Heart: Wider at the cheeks, with a narrower, pointed chin.
Long: Longer than wide, with a narrow jawline and elongated appearance.
Not sure about your face shape? Pull your hair back, look in a mirror, and trace your face’s outline on a piece of paper, or consult a stylist.
Oval faces are versatile and can pull off most jewellery styles. The goal is to maintain the natural balance of your features.
Earrings: Opt for a variety of styles, from Stud Earrings to Drop Earrings. Avoid overly long earrings that elongate the face.
Necklaces: Chokers or short pendants, complement the oval shape. V-shaped or layered necklaces also work well.
Maang Tikka: A delicate Maang Tikka with a small pendant enhances symmetry without overwhelming.
Styling Tip: Experiment with bold designs like Gemstone Jhumkas for festive looks, as oval faces can handle both subtle and dramatic pieces.
For round faces, the goal is to elongate the appearance and add angles to soften the fullness.
Earrings: Choose long, dangling earrings like Jhumkas or Drop Earrings to create a lengthening effect. Avoid round studs or hoops that mimic the face’s shape.
Necklaces: Opt for V-shaped or long necklaces, to draw the eye downward.
Maang Tikka: A Maang Tikka with an elongated pendant helps add length to the face.
Styling Tip: Pair with angular outfits, like a V-neck dress, to enhance the elongating effect.
Square faces benefit from jewellery that softens the strong jawline and adds curves.
Earrings: Curved or rounded earrings, like Drop Earrings or Hoop Earrings, soften angular features. Avoid square or geometric designs.
Necklaces: Long, flowing necklaces, such as Layered Gemstone Necklace, add softness and draw attention away from the jawline.
Maang Tikka: A Kundan Maang Tikka with a round or teardrop pendant complements the face’s angles.
Styling Tip: Pair with soft, flowy fabrics to enhance the rounded effect of your jewellery.
Heart-shaped faces, with wider cheeks and a narrower chin, look best with jewellery that balances the lower face.
Earrings: Wider or chandelier-style earrings add width to the lower face. Avoid narrow, dangling designs.
Necklaces: Short, chunky necklaces or chokers, balance the wider upper face.
Maang Tikka: Choose a Minimal Maang Tikka with a wider pendant to harmonize proportions.
Styling Tip: Pair with high necklines or off-shoulder dresses to emphasize the lower face.
Long faces benefit from jewellery that adds width and minimizes length.
Earrings: Wide, bold earrings like Statement Hoops or Cluster Gemstone Earrings create a broadening effect. Avoid long, dangling earrings.
Necklaces: Chokers or short necklaces, add width to the neck area.
Maang Tikka: A Wide Maang Tikka with a broader pendant helps balance the face’s length.
Styling Tip: Pair with round or square necklines to enhance the widening effect.
Consider Skin Tone: Gold-plated or kundan jewellery from Shelly Jewels complements warm skin tones, while silver or American Diamond pieces suit cooler tones.
Match the Occasion: Opt for Shelly Jewels CZ Studs for everyday wear, Kundan Sets for weddings, or Gemstone Necklaces for festive events.
Balance with Outfit: Pair bold jewellery with simple outfits and vice versa to maintain harmony.
Try Before You Buy: If possible, try on jewellery to see how it complements your face shape, or use Shelly Jewels’ detailed product images and descriptions to make informed choices.
To keep your Shelly Jewels pieces looking stunning, follow these care tips:
Clean Gently: Wipe with a soft cloth or use mild soapy water for American Diamond or gemstone jewellery. Avoid water for oxidized pieces to preserve their finish.
Store Properly: Keep in a soft pouch or separate compartment to prevent scratches or tarnishing.
Avoid Chemicals: Remove before applying perfumes, lotions, or engaging in activities involving water or sweat.
