What Is Artificial Jewellery?
Artificial jewellery refers to fashion accessories made from non-precious metals such as copper, brass, alloy with imitation stones. Artificial jewellery is very affordable and budget-friendly as compared to real jewellery, but still gives the same shiny and luxurious look. With the rising gold rates in Pakistan, people are moving towards artificial or imitation jewellery.
Artificial jewellery comes in a huge variety. From everyday minimalistic style to trending heavy jewellery such as jhumkas and chandbali, you can get every piece at your favorable price.
People assume that artificial jewellery is cheap or fake plastic jewellery. However, top-notch brands in Pakistan have changed the way people think about artificial jewellery. These brands serve jewellery made from high-quality metals plated with gold. The jewellery is sensitive-skin friendly and is suitable for long-hours.
Now that you have learned about artificial jewellery, let’s learn how to style it properly.
4 Golden Rules of Styling Artificial Jewellery in Pakistan
In Pakistan, you cannot miss looking your best. So here are the 4 golden rules of styling artificial jewellery in Pakistan:
-
One Statement Piece at a Time
You should always wear one statement piece at a time. For instance, if you are wearing heavy earrings, you shouldn’t wear heavy necklaces or heavy bangles. The same goes for every piece. Wear heavy earrings, necklaces, or bangles one piece at a time. This balancing principle keeps your look elegant.
If you want to learn how to style heavy earrings, you should read this complete guide: How to style heavy earrings.

Match Jewellery with Your Neckline
Matching your jewellery with your neckline is a great styling attempt. Here’s how neckline shape determines which jewellery you should wear:
- V-neck → Pendant or Y-drop necklace
- Sweetheart → Choker or short necklace
- High neck / Turtleneck → Long layered necklace or statement earrings only
- Off-shoulder → Skip necklace, wear statement earrings + bracelet
We discussed all the neckline shapes and their corresponding best jewellery options in this blog: Matching jewellery with neckline. Make sure to give it a go.

Know Your Skin Tone for Metal Selection
When you are buying artificial jewellery, you must consider your skin tone. Your skintone will help you choose between gold and silver jewellery. The right jewellery will make you stand out, and your skin will glow more than ever.
- If you have a cool undertone (blue veins), you should go for silver jewellery.
- If you have a warm undertone (green veins), you should go for gold jewellery.
- If you cannot decide your undertone, then you are probably neutral, which means you can style both gold and silver jewellery.
Once you understand this color theory, you can select the best artificial jewellery for yourself. We have discussed how you can clearly identify your undertone and select the best jewellery for yourself in this blog: Gold vs silver-toned jewellery styling.

Less Is More for Daytime
For the daytime styling, less is more. For all the daytime events, including weddings, office meetings, and casual outings, you should go for minimal artificial jewellery. Wear small studs, locket sets, and thin rings to get the best elegant look. Don’t go for heavy jewellery for the day time events.
