The magic of snow isn't just tied to Christmas. This is, in fact, the time of year when it's most enjoyable to experience the charm of the mountains, with their picturesque villages, snow-covered slopes, and fashionable spots to relax after a day of skiing—all while maintaining elegance and style.
Adding a touch of personality to every moment of the day, even on a ski holiday, with an accessory like a watch or a piece of jewelry, can only make your stay in the snow more magical.
But while choices and combinations are easier in the warmer season—simply because the heat allows for more bare arms, neck, and décolleté—winter, and especially a snow holiday, can also be the perfect occasion to show off your personal sense of glamour and creativity, as long as you keep a few small tips in mind.
Small Tips for Great Combinations
When choosing which jewelry to wear and how to match it during a ski holiday, you can start by applying a principle that's also useful for clothing: just like layering is a smart choice for mountain wear, applying the same concept to jewelry can be a functional and fun way to complete your outfit.
Try layering necklaces of different lengths or wearing two or three bracelets. Mix and match to create a look that’s entirely your own, keeping in mind the only rule: balance. For example, if you wear bold bracelets, choose more delicate necklaces to complement them.
In a more casual setting, like enjoying a drink at après-ski while wrapped in a cozy turtleneck sweater, you can be bolder with your jewelry choices—both in terms of size (a very thin necklace might get lost in the thick fabric) and color (a vibrant tone will add a touch of lightness and brightness to your look).
In this case, you can opt for either a pendant or a chunky stone necklace, or even statement earrings, as long as you also consider practicality. Large or elaborate earrings could get tangled in turtleneck sweaters, scarves, and hats.
The same applies to bracelets and rings if you can't part with your gloves. Therefore, the best choice is to favor versatile accessories that can easily match different situations.
Don’t forget that even a stylish watch can be enough to stand out, even on the slopes, if it’s a sporty model that can accompany you on a downhill run.
