Korean Jewellery Styling Tips

Korean dramas provide viewers with memorable stories, as well as stunning fashion trends. Each heroine has a different style, ranging from modern, everyday looks to elegant, silver jewellery. If you have seen any of the K-Drama listed above (including all-time favorites such as Boys Over Flowers, Goblin, Reply 1988, Oh My Venus, True Beauty, My Demon, Crash Landing On You, Queen of Tears, Business Proposal, Twenty-five Twenty-one, along with actresses starring Kim Go-eun, Son Ye-jin, Kim Se-Jeong, Kim Tae-Ri and Ahn Eun-Jin) you may want to recreate your favourite character's wardrobe.

In this article, you'll find out how to style Korean Jewellery in the same way that your favourite leading lady would; with trendy, versatile pieces from GIVA's silver jewellery collection.

Why Korean Jewellery Aesthetics Are So Popular All Over the World

Korean jewellery has a unique beauty that is light, meaningful, feminine, and simple while still feeling luxuriously crafted. From the minimal silver necklace worn during the love confession scene to the bold statement earrings worn during the intense confrontation scene, Korean jewellery is used as a storytelling tool, just like k-dramas are.

Minimalism is central to Korean fashion; unlike with highly embellished jewellery, today’s jewellery features sleek lines and smooth curves, delicate stone, and substantial/metallic luster, which will redefine anyone’s outfit on a daily basis (

Let us explore the inspiration behind the revolving jewellery styles of famous characters and how you can recreate their look.

Girl Next Door Style Inspired by Jan-Di

The Boys Over Flowers K-Drama has been the introduction of the world of K-Dramas to many audiences, especially through the use of Jewellery associated with Geum Jan-Di. Her accessories added subtle but beautiful detail that enhanced Jan-Di's grounded personality. Jan-Di often used very few pieces of jewellery including: simple stud earrings, such as silver studs & tiny pendants; and minimal thick bracelets combined with her style.

To achieve her look you will want to:

- Select silver studs that compliment everything you wear (e.g., soft-yet-expressive Silver Studs).

- Include a Minimalist Heart or Floral Pendant that embodies the innocence associated with Jan-Di's style.

- Finally, a thin silver bracelet will add the final touches to the entire outfit.

Small silver earrings and light pendants from GIVA will allow you the opportunity to recreate this nostalgic K-Fashion from 2009 without it appearing "dated."

How to Build a Korean Jewellery Collection Like a True K-Drama Lead

Golden Minimal Pearl Necklace

Golden Minimal Pearl Necklace

Step 1

The foundation of every Korean fashion look is minimal silver jewellery with several unique pieces including: studs, mini-hoops, one charm pendant, and clean bracelet! GIVA curated basics are the ideal starting place!

Step 2

Each time you put on an outfit, decide which of the following will be the “statement” for the outfit: drop earrings, bold pendant, or sculptural ring. Just as K-Drama uses accessories to highlight personality, this will serve as your signature piece!

Step 3

Jewellery from Korea is never too busy or messy. It is important to balance feminine sweetness with structure:

- A simple and sweet heart-shaped pendant, combined with very structured geometric-shaped earrings.

- A very elegant pearl necklace paired perfectly on the same occasion with a more contemporary, bold ring.

- A very contemporary curved bracelet combined with a minimalist or structured outfit.

Step 4 

Most jewelry worn in K-Dramas has a very sentimental connotation to it. This is sometimes represented by (symbolically) wearing charms or pieces that represent something higher than just looking beautiful: Stars, Hearts, Flowers, Moons, etc. GIVA has many different types of meaningful motif pieces that symbolise similar things.
