If you have been looking for some easy ways to pair native jewelry with an office outfit, here are some cool tips for you to get started.

Tips for pairing your native jewelry

1) Rings

Turquoise rings are a combination of boho and chic in one look. Pairing them with formals, Furthur accentuates the turquoise and with it your style quotient. This look needs skinny jeans and a turtle neck paired with a long coat, preferably a camel coat. Pair them with pumps or stilettos. Keep the hair open in the middle part and light makeup with nude lip shade.

Go for a prominent Navajo ring in blue or green turquoise and wear it on the middle finger of either hand. Go for one ring with a prominent design instead of crowding the fingers. A large Arizona turquoise or a Kingsman turquoise are good choices for the ring. A double turquoise leaf ring or a sterling long turquoise ring will also suit the look very well. You can even use turquoise as the main stone and put oyster stones or corals in the periphery. Keep the other accessories at a bare minimum. A satchel bag of either black or white shade will complete the look. The turquoise will bring you good luck, and the ring will highlight your fashion sense in the best way possible.

2) Navajo turquoise cuff

A simple look best brings out the uniqueness of turquoise. For this look, a simple slit A-line skirt with a matching white polka-dotted shirt works best. It can be of any color. But royal blue, a white shade, or mustard yellow shade work best with the hues of turquoise. For Optpencil heels and a small matching purse bag to carry with this look, go for a Navajo turquoise cuff and very minimal other jewelry. It may be a sterling turquoise cuff or a multistrand turquoise cuff. It may even be a teardrop turquoise cuff or a protection wrap bracelet with the main gemstone turquoise combined with another gemstone-like jasper and amazonite. A lone mountain or a Candelaria turquoise work best for a cuff bracelet because of the comparatively lighter matrix over their surface. The silver cuff and the blue of the turquoise look good on any complexion. Complete the look with a wristwatch on the other hand, and you are ready to make heads turn.

3) Native American turquoise necklace

For this particular look, go for a knee-length monochrome midi dress with a boat neck. Opt for ivory or off-white look. These shades bring out the vibrancy of the turquoise in the best possible manner. A monochrome black dress can also be opted for instead of ivory. Go for either of these colors. And pair them with a matching jacket and kitten heels.

Wear a turquoise bib necklace with this look. Turquoise bib necklaces are pretty elaborate and beautifully highlight the blue of the turquoise. You can go for a hammered turquoise bib necklace, a tusk bib, or a boho turquoise bib necklace. You may opt for an only turquoise look or pair the bib with occasional coral. It will have a unique yet formal look, and you can confidently carry it to both office and after office parties. A turquoise belt with an ivory clutch will complete the look. Keep the hair and makeup simple. Let your style speak for itself.

4)A heishi necklace

A heishi necklace is the specialty jewelry of the Native Tribes. Not only is it handcrafted, but every heishi bead is also different from the other, and not one piece is ever repeated. First worn as a symbol of protection, turquoise heishi necklaces are one of the most sought-after Native American jewelry these days.

For pairing with the heishi necklace, go for a jumpsuit. Preferably a monochrome one. Ideally, any monochrome color would bring out the hue of the turquoise. But olive, black and white shades are usually preferred as the best combination. Pair them with an ankle strap or open-toe heels. An envelope handbag or a clutch purse would complete the look. Tie your hair into a neat pony or leave it open. You can even opt for a messy top bun. Now wear the turquoise heishi necklace. You may wear a single-strand necklace or go for a multi-layered one. Usually, medium-sized heishi beads of lone mountain turquoise paired with coral heishis work best. But you can go for a sole turquoise look as well. Multi-colored turquoise heishi beads in different strands are another unique way of making the heishi stand out.

End Thoughts

You can always count on New Mexico Gems to get an authentic Native American turquoise necklace and turquoise heishi necklace with 100% price satisfaction for sure.
