Diwali is celebrated over five days, from Dhanteras to Bhai Dooj. Many families do the Lakshmi puja at home and visit relatives with boxes of mithai. Then there are the card parties, either at a friend’s place or in the housing society. You would want to dress up a little differently for each of these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditional jewellery suits the puja better, and modern pieces are good for the parties. In this blog, we have listed ten jewellery ideas for Diwali celebrations, five traditional and five modern. We have also added simple Diwali jewellery styling ideas for each one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditional Jewellery Ideas for Diwali<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This section covers jewellery for the puja and family visits. Here are five pieces you can pick from this Diwali.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Kundan Choker Set<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n

Kundan is a traditional jewellery style in which the stones are set with gold foil. This kundan choker set has pearls along with the kundan stones, and it can be worn for the Lakshmi puja with most silk sarees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The set also comes with matching earrings and a maang tikka. If your saree<\/strong><\/a> has a heavy zari border, you can wear the choker and earrings without the maang tikka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Temple Jewellery Set<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Temple jewellery<\/strong><\/a> was first made to decorate the idols of gods and goddesses in South Indian temples. Many designs today have Goddess Lakshmi and coin motifs on them. This antique temple necklace set has a Lakshmi motif, and it is among the best traditional jewellery ideas for Diwali, especially for the Lakshmi puja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It looks good with a Kanjeevaram saree and a round or boat-neck blouse. Matching jhumkas come with the set too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Kundan Jhumkas<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jhumkas are bell-shaped earrings, and this gold-toned kundan pair has small pearl drops at the bottom. It looks lovely with a flared Anarkali in a dark shade like olive green or wine. Many Anarkalis already come with embroidery around the neckline. With such Anarkalis, you can skip the necklace and wear only the jhumkas<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Kundan Chandbalis<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chandbalis<\/strong><\/a> are earrings shaped like a half moon. These white kundan chandbalis with pearl danglers suit a light lehenga for Bhai Dooj.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They look best when your hair is pulled back into a braid or a bun. And if the lehenga blouse is heavily embroidered, leave the necklace out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Gold-Toned Bangles<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is a set of four gold-toned bangles with pearls and small red and green stones. It can be worn with silk sarees and lehengas<\/strong><\/a>, and even with salwar suits. All four can be worn together on one wrist, with a watch or a thin kada on the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern Jewellery Ideas for Diwali<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Diwali parties and get-togethers are more relaxed than the puja. People usually wear co-ord sets or sequin sarees to them, and a heavy traditional set can look a bit too much with such outfits. Modern jewellery for Diwali is lighter and easier to wear at these events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. American Diamond Earrings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American diamond (AD), also known as CZ, is a lab-made stone. It sparkles almost as much as a real diamond. This pair of silver-toned AD drop earrings is a good choice for an evening party, especially with a shimmery outfit. Since the earrings already have a lot of sparkle, you can easily go without a necklace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Cocktail Ring<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Card parties are a big part of Diwali in many homes, and they usually go on till late at night. Your hands are on the table for most of the evening at these parties. So, this bold American diamond cocktail ring is one of the more practical jewellery ideas for Diwali nights like these. You can wear it on its own, without any bangles or bracelets<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Layered Pearl Necklace<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pearls have been worn in India for festivals and weddings for a long time. This three-layer pearl necklace is good for daytime events like a Diwali lunch or a get-together at home. It looks fresh over a pastel chikankari kurta. Small studs are enough for the ears with this necklace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Ear Cuffs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heavy jhumkas are not always comfortable at a long Diwali party. Ear cuffs<\/strong><\/a> are a good way around this. A cuff sits along the outer curve of the ear and is much lighter than a jhumka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This gold-toned pair with small pearls and crystal flowers is a nice choice for a Diwali party at a friend’s place. They are easier to see when your hair is in a sleek bun or tucked behind your ears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Pendant Chain<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Many offices in India have a small Diwali celebration during work hours, and this gold-toned chain with an American diamond pendant works well for such days. It is light and simple, and it goes well with a kurta and palazzos as well as a simple cotton saree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can try out different Indian jewellery<\/strong><\/a> styles over the five days of Diwali. And between traditional and modern Indian jewellery, you can cover every part of the festival, from the puja to the card party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, there is no need to buy a new set for every event. One or two pieces that you already own can be used to create different Indian festive jewellery looks. Many of the jewellery ideas for Diwali in this list can be worn in more than one way. All the pieces in this blog are available on Mirraw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
