If you are looking for a pair of gemstone earrings which complement your hair colour and skin tone, then choosing the right stone can have a dramatic effect on how good (or bad) it looks. For instance vibrant ref stones like garnets or rubies can often clash with vibrant red hair or make a pale skin appear sallow.
So to help you choose the right colour we have come up with a few suggestions:
Green stones like emeralds, peridots or tsavorites offer a wonderfully contrast and enhance the colour of red heads. The old adage that red and green should never be seen doesn’t apply to jewellery as the conflicting hues complement one another perfectly. Green gemstones also look very sophisticated with brown hair and clean and fresh on fair hair.
As mentioned previously, red stones like rubies or garnets can get a little lost or clash with red hair. But they can look very deep and sensual when worn by blondes or brunettes.
Blue gemstones like sapphires, topaz, aquamarine or tanzanite look good with most hair colours, looking fresh and causing no colour clash. I always think light blue stones look best when worn by blondes, with deeper blues complementing any colour hair. Blue topaz (pictured), tanzanite and aquamarine are light shades, with a blue sapphire being a great example of a deeper blue.
I love purple gemstones with purple sapphires and amethysts being the most popular. They are at their best when played off against rich brown hair colour but can be worn both by redheads and blondes.
With the Black Swan movie starring Natalie Portman nominated for a number of Oscars next month you might like to get ahead of the game and start wearing black diamond jewellery.
