Necklaces | The Art of Anchoring and Styling Your Look
When it comes to necklaces, we recommend starting with your “anchor piece”—the centerpiece that grounds and defines your look. This doesn’t have to be the biggest necklace, or the top necklace if you’re layering, but the necklace you want to build the look around. For instance, let’s say you’re really feeling the Triple Moon Goddess Necklace, start with that one and then choose another necklace(s) that compliments it either above or below.
As you may know, we’re huge fans of layering necklaces. Once your anchor piece is in place, the next step is to style it with other necklaces to create an elevated, finished look! Start by pairing it with pieces of varying lengths, using layering to add flair. Depending on your outfit, neckline, and desired drama, you can use extenders or adjust lengths to perfect the cascade of layers. For example, a shorter bold anchor necklace followed by mid-length and longer, use chains to create a flow that naturally draws the eye.
Hot tip: If you need to make your necklace shorter, simply attach the clasp on the chain for the length you desire (most of our chains will do this easily). If you need to make it longer use a chain extender which we sell in a variety of lengths.
Consider the stones you’re layering, too—align them with your mood or the energy you want to channel that day. For instance, our Nimue Necklace’s clear quartz is versatile and amplifies both your energy and that of other stones, while rainbow moonstone promotes balance and harmony. Feeling anxious? Try wearing our Maiden Kite Necklace and matching earrings that feature Amethyst.
Rings | The Power of Stacking and Styling for Self-Expression
In case you didn’t know already, we LOVE rings. Not only do you have many fingers to adorn, but you can really show off your individual style and have lots of fun with the rings you choose to wear. Stacking rings is a powerful way to express different facets of your style, moods, and even your personal intentions for the day. Start by choosing a focal piece, like the dramatic Guinevere or Cygnus ring, and then build around it with smaller stackable rings like Gil, Tindome, or Elen.
Once you’ve laid out the rings you want to wear, don’t be afraid to stack multiple rings across different fingers for a bolder look. Let your focal piece shine while adding complementary smaller rings for contrast. This method allows you to express a different side of yourself every time you wear your rings. Stacking isn’t limited to one hand either—consider bedazzling both hands for a show-stopping effect that will win you compliments all day!
When styling, remember to focus on these key aspects: first, choose a focal piece, then layer for contrast (think mixing metals and varying stones), and finally, incorporate rings with personal meaning. Adding rings with sentimental ties will help you build and complete your ring stack and truly make it y o u r s.

Earrings | Balancing Fit and Styling for Expression
Choosing the perfect earrings for your look goes beyond just aesthetics—it’s necessary to consider comfort, especially if you’ll be wearing them all day or to a special event. To find your ideal earring weight, we recommend grabbing your favorite pair of earrings and a food scale if you have one. You can simply weigh your favorites and then compare their weight to the weights listed in our product descriptions .
One thing we like to mention is that we hand make all our ear hooks using 18g sterling silver wire; this is thicker than the traditional 20g which actually helps the earring feel more comfortable when wearing heavier earrings as the ear hooks feel “softer” and evenly distributes the weight for a balanced feel.
When styling bold statement earrings like the Battle Axe Earrings or Morgana Hoop Earrings, elevate your look by pairing them with smaller studs or dainty hoops if you have multiple piercings. This creates a layered, eye-catching effect that balances the drama of the statement pieces while still adding dimension and interest. Mixing different sizes and styles adds a touch of individuality while ensuring the bold earrings remain the focal point.
..To add some true glamour magick to your styling, consider what statement earrings you wear and their specific stones based on your intention. For example, our Winged Prophetess is set with Golden Obsidian Sheen which invites us to rise up to the challenge, and to make a positive difference, in whatever way we are most able. Wearing this piece during a big presentation or job interview can help embolden us to show up for ourselves in the best way possible.. So ask yourself, how do you want to feel today?
Cuff Bracelets | Perfecting the Fit and Styling for Impact
We absolutely cuff bracelets and they can adda special flair to any look! We typically only offer our cuff bracelets in our one-of-a-kind Collection releases but if you love this style check out our Nimue Cuff Bracelet or the Moon Warrior Laced Cuff Bracelet.
Our cuff bracelets have a standard 6” inner circumference and 1-1.25” opening and are designed to be adjustable to fit your wrist flawlessly. To determine if a cuff will fit, use a soft measuring tape, string, or even a shoelace to measure around your wrist (then measure that with a ruler) and determine if that size would fit best.
Acid Queen Mystical Tip: This measuring technique isn’t just for cuff bracelets—it’s also a great way to determine where a necklace will sit on your neck and if you need a chain extender to achieve your desired look. Placement is part of this process, too!
It’s time to delve into the art of styling; pair your cuff bracelet with a stack of rings with sharp, geometric lines for a touch of edgy mystery. This combination enhances the ethereal quality of your outfit and can pair perfectly with a romantic date night vibe. In the cooler months, especially during fall, layer your cuff over a long sheer sleeve to introduce a rich texture and add intrigue to the visuals; this can transform a simple outfit into a statement of mysticism.
Neck Cuffs | Wearing and Styling for Statement-Making Looks
Jewelry can open conversations, elevate spirits, and create new stories and interactions.
Our favorite customer feedback is how our pieces turn strangers into friends, and nothing strikes up a conversation faster than one of our neck cuffs!
We have two distinct styles of neck cuffs we design and each come with a distinct look and feel. Our Nimue Neck Cuff is designed after our first original neck cuff design and sits on the body more like a half collar. This style is great for those who love the look but don’t want something directly around their neck. We also have our neck cuff collar designs that are usually only offered during our one-of-a-kind releases like the Heated Neck Cuff with Double Red Jasper. These hug the neck for a bold feminine look and with this style the fit is important to make sure that they are comfortable—While these designs are created to fit the body, neck length plays an important factor, use the measuring method to determine your best length. P.S. For all collar styles they come with a standard 13” fit, however we will contact you to make sure the chain length and neck cuff are sized to fit you.
The cuff necklace is for all expression levels; sometimes, we want to be draped in soft, sheer fabrics and finish with a neck cuff to drip in that Goddess energy. Sometimes, it’s for embracing your boho side by styling a neck cuff with a flowing maxi dress and then choosing other jewelry pieces with stones that resonate with your empowering vibe of the day. Sometimes, you might want to wear neck cuffs to channel your inner badass by pairing them with a leather jacket, a silky dress, and thigh-high boots. Each way of styling lets your unique personality shine through while allowing the neck cuff to inspire you every single time! Either way, when you drape yourself in a neck cuff, be prepared to say, “Oh my gosh, thank you so much!” all day long because people will go out of their way to stop and compliment your look! This is "THAT" jewelry... Empowering & Awe-Inspiring!
..We love suggesting the neck cuff for when you either FEEL really powerful or WANT to feel really powerful; adding a neck cuff will give you this air of strength, power, and attitude..
