If Emily in Paris has taught us anything, it’s this: outfits may change by the hour, but jewelry is what holds the mood together. In the newest season, the pieces feel more intentional, more personal, and a little more self-aware — just like Emily herself.
Here’s how the jewelry quietly (no, steadily) does the work behind the scenes.
Sculpted Hoops, City Confidence
In tailored looks and graphic prints, the hoops are clean, rounded, and assertive. They don’t compete with the outfit; they anchor it.
Why it works: This kind of hoop brings structure to playful silhouettes. It adds polish without softening the edge. Think of it as Parisian punctuation — a full stop at the end of a sentence that already knows where it’s going.
How to wear it: Best with slick hair, strong shoulders, or bold eyewear. Let the lines do the talking.
Gem Accents, Everyday Romance
Gemstones appear again and again, set into hoops or nestled into minimal designs. They’re there to announce something - from details to playing with colors of the full look. Emily knows what she wants to express.
Why it works: These pieces catch light without asking for attention. They feel like something you’d wear everyday with a simple t-shirt and forget to take off and still works for the night.
How to wear it: Day-to-night, layered outfits, matching colors. Deliberately looking stunning.
Treasured Tears Dangle Earrings
Drop Earrings with a Narrative
Longer earrings show up when emotions run higher — dinners that turn into confessions, walks that feel like decisions.
Why it works: Movement matters here. Each step, each turn of the head adds rhythm. The shapes feel thoughtful, not ornamental.
How to wear it: With softer fabrics, open necklines, or moments when you want the jewelry to echo what you’re feeling.
Circular Motifs, Full Circle Energy
You’ll notice recurring round forms — rings, loops, pendants that feel symbolic without being literal.
Why it works:
Circles feel complete. This shape brings balance and calm, especially when everything else feels in motion. It reads as confidence without performance.
How to wear it: Like Mindy, layered with a thin silky scarf for depth from different textures. Or you know what? Bare shoulders, open necklines, for evening looks that don’t need excess. Let it sit alone and do its quiet work.
Bold Links, Personality Forward
Chunkier chains appear when the styling leans confident and slightly rebellious. They bring weight — visually and emotionally.
Why it works: This kind of chain has character. It doesn’t decorate; it defines. Perfect for moments like Mindy, who never tried to fit in.
How to wear it: Off-shoulder tops, cinched waists, or anything that benefits from contrast. Play with layers and textures for that total look of your personal style of the day.
Clean and Crisp, in Gold
Gold stands out most when paired with contrast — especially against a structured, tailored white blouse that feels firm and architectural.
Why it works: The rigidity of the fabric gives the gold something to push against. It highlights strength, clarity, and control.
How to wear it: Tailored shirts, strong collars, sleeves with shape. Keep everything else minimal and let the gold sharpen the look.
Hoops hoops, more hoops!
Round shapes return throughout the season — in necklaces, hoops, and pendants — whenever the styling leans human, emotional, and open. You see it on every single character.
Why it works: Rounded jewelry softens a look without weakening it. It adds warmth while keeping intention.
How to wear it: Prints, fluid fabrics, movement-friendly outfits. Pieces that feel lived-in rather than styled-to-death.
Jewelry That Grows With You
What makes this season feel different isn’t the sparkle — it’s the intention. The jewelry feels chosen, not added. Worn because it reflects where Emily is, not who she’s trying to impress.
And maybe that’s the real Paris lesson:
Style isn’t about having more. It’s about knowing when something feels right — and wearing it like you mean it.
