The 10 mix-and-match essentials (for men, women, and kids)
1) Classic Tennis Bracelet (budget icon)
- Why it’s essential: It’s the ultimate wear-everywhere sparkle that layers with everything.
- Rochas pick: The gold-plated Classic Tennis Bracelet at a wallet-happy $13.99.
- Who wears it: Everyone. Men stack it with a leather or link bracelet, women layer it with a watch, kids wear it solo for special occasions.
2) ‘Marbella’ Two-Tone Disc Drop Earrings
- Why it’s essential: Two-tone earrings make mixing metals effortless and instantly polish a look.
- Rochas pick: ‘Marbella’ Two-Tone Disc Drop Earrings at $55.00.
- Who wears it: Women and older girls; the sleek shape bridges classic and contemporary.
3) Minimal Pendant Necklace (initial or coin)
- Why it’s essential: A small pendant reads personal and pairs with everything from tees to blazers.
- Style tip: Pick initials for kids, a meaningful symbol for men, or a coin pendant for women; two-tone or gold-plated keeps it timeless.
4) Everyday Hoops or Huggies
- Why it’s essential: Hoops instantly lift a look without trying. Huggies are great for daily wear and for school-age kids/teens.
- Style tip: Choose slim mediums for women, small huggies for kids/teens, and minimal hoops or studs for men.
5) Signet or Stackable Band Ring
- Why it’s essential: A unisex classic that can be engraved or kept clean-lined.
- Style tip: Men: one bold signet. Women: two slim stackers plus a mid-width band. Teens: a single slim band.
6) Link Chain Necklace
- Why it’s essential: The clean geometry works for all ages and looks great solo or layered with a pendant.
- Style tip: Paperclip or curb link for men; paperclip or cable for women; shorter cable link for kids.
7) Beaded or Leather Bracelet
- Why it’s essential: Adds texture and casual cool, softens metal stacks, and feels kid-friendly.
- Style tip: Men: leather or matte bead with the tennis bracelet. Women: gemstone beads for color. Kids: stretch beaded sets for easy on/off.
8) Anklet (don’t skip the fun)
- Why it’s essential: It’s the seasonal wildcard that still mixes with your capsule.
- Budget tip: Save 20% on ankle bracelets with code BEST20OFF.
- Style tip: Choose a slim chain or tiny charms; pairs beautifully with sandals and sneakers.
9) Smartwatch + Bracelet Stack
- Why it’s essential: Smartwatches are part of daily life—make them look intentional.
- Style tip: Pair your watch with a link bracelet or tennis bracelet on the same wrist for grown-ups; teens can try a slim beaded stack on the other wrist for balance.
10) Dress-Up Statement (one-and-done)
- Why it’s essential: For events, family photos, or holidays, grab one standout piece—a two-tone collar, a bold cuff, or an elongated drop earring—to elevate the entire capsule without buying a lot more.
Pro tip: Rochas carries plenty of gold-plated pieces (including 18K-plated styles) so you can build a luxe-looking capsule without the precious-metal price tag.
Style it: timeless meets trendy (without buying twice)
- Mix metals with intention: Two-tone pieces like the ‘Marbella’ earrings make it easy. Anchor with gold-plated core pieces, then add a silver or two-tone accent.
- Stack smart: Start with a base (pendant necklace or link chain), add a second layer (tennis or paperclip), then a “personality” layer (beads or charm). Two to three layers are enough for most looks.
- Balance proportions: If earrings are bold, keep the neck minimal. If you stack bracelets, skip giant rings for the day.
- Make your smartwatch look styled: Match the metal tone of your bracelets to your watch hardware, or contrast intentionally (matte bead against polished case).
- Family photo formula:
- Women: ‘Marbella’ earrings + pendant + tennis bracelet.
- Men: link chain + signet + leather or bead + tennis bracelet.
- Kids: small huggies or studs + short pendant + stretch bracelet.
- Day-to-night switch: Swap studs for hoops or the ‘Marbella’ drops, add the dress-up statement piece, and you’re event-ready in 30 seconds.
- Seasonal refresh without overspending: Rotate in an anklet for spring/summer, then lean on hoops and link chains for fall/winter. Your capsule stays fresh with minimal buys.
Sizing and care for plated pieces (keep it comfy and gleaming)
Sizing quick guide
- Bracelets:
- Women: 6.5–7.5 in typical; measure snug at the wrist bone and add 0.5–1 in.
- Men: 7.5–8.5 in typical; add 0.5–1 in for comfort.
- Kids: 5.0–6.0 in typical for school-age; look for adjustable or stretch styles.
- Anklets: 9–11 in is common. Choose adjustable chains with extenders for sneakers vs. sandals.
- Necklaces:
- Women: 16 in (collarbone) for pendants; 18–20 in for layering.
- Men: 20–24 in depending on build and neckline.
- Kids: 14–16 in; prioritize light weight and secure clasps.
- Rings: If you don’t know your size, wrap a thin strip of paper around your finger, mark, measure in millimeters, and compare with a standard ring chart. When in doubt between two sizes, choose the larger for wider bands.
Care for gold-plated jewelry
- Last on, first off: Put jewelry on after lotions, fragrance, and sunscreen; remove before workouts, showers, and swimming.
- Keep it dry and clean: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear to remove oils and sweat. Avoid chemical cleaners.
- Store separately: Use individual pouches or soft compartments to prevent scratches and tangling.
- Gentle only: No abrasive cloths or polishes; mild soap and water is okay for a quick rinse—dry thoroughly.
- Rotate wear: If you love a piece daily, consider two similar styles to alternate; this extends the life of plating.
- Kid-proofing: For younger children, choose smooth edges, secure clasps, and adult supervision for small parts.
With thoughtful care, plated pieces hold their glow and keep your capsule looking luxe for the long run.
