One of the best ways to convey professionalism is through jewelry, but it's important to understand how to do it correctly. The most important rule is to make sure your jewelry is clean and polished, just as you would with your work attire. Normal wear and tear can cause oils, dust, and other contaminants to dull the shine of gold and gemstones.
In terms of style, there are many ways to approach this and research specific careers and roles. The best way is to pay attention to what others are wearing and not wearing. For example, many professionals will wear a watch, as they say, "old but gold". I personally prefer simple, elegant designs that don't sacrifice quality.
Combining old and new can also be a great way to convey professionalism. For example, wearing a fancy watch, sleek bracelet, and simple ring can convey leadership and success.
Remember, when wearing jewelry in a professional setting, it's important to know when and when not to flaunt. Let your jewelry do some of the talking for you, and don't overthink it.
