How to Mix Metals in Jewellery Without Clashing

There are a few fashion rules that have been followed in both traditional and modern times without an apparent reason for their existence. Matching your shoes with your handbag, avoiding wearing navy and black together, and refraining from mixing metal hues in your jewellery and accessories at all costs. We’re big believers in rejecting these ideals and creating modern looks that exude pure creativity. 

Introduction to How to Mix Metals in Jewellery Without Clashing

For some jewellery wearers, mixing metals can feel like it’s a one-way journey towards clash city. The beauty of this modern trend lies in its pure, creative, and personalised styling. The key to nailing this trend is balancing and coordinating your look, combining different metals within your stack for a contemporary style that exudes effortlessly cool energy. We’re such a big fan of this concept that we created our luxurious Stella Double C Earrings, a mixed-metal accessory that combines the different energies these two hues emit. 

Why Mixing Metals is Trending in 2025

Previous years' accessory trends have remained within very well-constructed boxes, existing within a space that doesn’t take strides outside the norm. 2025 is a year where rules are being broken, and trends are beloved for their standout appeal amongst a mainstream crowd. Mixing metals combines the timeless appeal of warm hues with the contemporary edge of cooler tones, creating a look reminiscent of modern-day trends. A stunning way to experiment with mixing metals is within a curated hand stack, where our stacking rings provide the perfect form to create this look. 

Influences from Fashion and Culture

One of our favourite fashion icons, Gigi Hadid, is the perfect inspiration piece for all of your mixed-metal inspirations. From the effortless contemporary looks she provides at red-carpet events to her fashion-forward street style, a combination of metal types can regularly be found on one of our favourite Hadids. She embodies this stunning style by mixing similarly shaped chain necklaces in varying metal hues, with our premium pieces, the ideal way to recreate her look within your stack. 

What Shoppers Are Looking for Now

If you’ve been a lifelong cohesive jewellery fan, the thought of integrating metal types can be a daunting one. Shoppers are on the hunt for ways to incorporate this trend into their stack in an approachable way, using pieces that are entirely reflective of their tastes. By combining a mix of the known with the unexplored, the mixed-metal trend transforms from the terrifying into the tried, tested, and loved. 


How to Choose the Right Pieces to Mix 

Every jewellery stack is unique, and every approach to mixing metals will vary accordingly. Whether you’re a classic, vintage jewellery lover or prefer a more modern, geometric approach, every stack can benefit from a bit of metal integration. 

Style Preferences and Daily Use

One of our favourite ways to embrace this trend is with a stack of similarly shaped bangle bracelets in various hues. By maintaining cohesiveness in one element, such as the shape of the pieces, your mixed-metal look can be showcased as entirely intentional. Our bangles are of premium quality, with their expert craftsmanship a testament to the fact that these pieces can be worn every day. 

Tips on Sizing, Length or Shape

The size, length, and shape of your mixed-metal jewellery each impact the aesthetic and comfort of your jewellery in various ways. If looking to add rings to your collection, we recommend measuring your finger to ensure a snug, comfortable fit. Both our bracelets and necklaces come with a generous 5cm chain adjuster, allowing you to choose the length that suits your personal preference. Shape is essential when it comes to mixing metals, and choosing cohesively shaped pieces will ensure your look is chic, every time. Our huggie earrings look stunning when stacked cohesively, making multiple piercings a beautiful way to showcase mixed-metal styles. 

How to Style Mixed Metals With Other Pieces

Combining a set of mixed-metal pieces into your daily stack is one of the easiest ways to show your creativity and general shine within your jewellery stack. What was once a banned fashion trend has now been embraced as a modern one, and incorporating it into your current look couldn’t be easier. 

Minimalist vs Layered Looks

Minimalist Looks 

  • Keep things simple with a few delicate chain bracelets of a similar width, varying the hues throughout your wrist. The understated pieces will help to include your minimalist style, whilst the premium multi-hued bracelets will tie in this effortless trend 

  • Elevated basics from a dedicated minimalist wardrobe will help to showcase this trend stunningly, using the backdrop of your outfit to let your minimalist style shine


Layered Looks 

  • Opt for several layered necklaces and allow the varying lengths to come together in the cohesive widths, whilst standing apart within their signature metal hues. This will create a stunning aesthetic that will make a massive impact on your look 

  • Keep your outfit playful with a stunning set of patterns, textures, and prints that will showcase a vivacious and bold taste 


Mixing with Gold, Silver or Stones

The addition of stones to a layered look is a stunning way to bring more colour and interest to your modern design. Pearls are a particularly popular mix-in, with a pearl bracelet one of the best ways to showcase this look. Because of our sustainably sourced, natural freshwater pearl, every stone has a unique aesthetic appeal, just as each wearer does.
