Welcome to late November! The season of cozy knits, rich textures, and, soon enough,
shimmering holiday parties is officially upon us.

As the weather cools down and our wardrobes get heavier, it can feel like our favourite jewelry gets lost. But here at Urbiana, we believe this is the best time to let your boldest pieces truly shine. Your chunky scarf and high-necked sweater aren't barriers, they are the perfect, understated canvas for dramatic, artisanal jewellery.
Here is your style guide for mastering the art of the Cozy to Cocktail look with your favourite statement pieces.
1. Cozy Chic: Styling for Daytime Knits & Layers
Winter daywear is all about comfort, but that doesn't mean your style has to hibernate. When you’re bundled up in a thick wool coat or a high-neck cashmere sweater, the focus immediately shifts to two crucial areas: your hands and your ears.
Tip 1: The Power of the Statement Earring
If your neck is covered by a turtleneck, a scarf, or a high coat collar, skip the necklace entirely. This is the moment for large, eye-catching earrings. They frame your face beautifully and add an immediate lift to heavy fabrics.
- Look to Try: Pair a neutral-toned oversized knit with our Classic Teardrop Earrings. The intricate detail of the filigree provides a gorgeous texture contrast to the smooth yarn of your sweater.

Tip 2: Stacking Rings Over Sleeves
Layering isn't just for clothes—it’s for your hands! As your sleeves get longer, consider stacking bold, colourful rings. They add a flash of personality every time you reach for your coffee or phone.
- Look to Try: Wear a long-sleeved jersey top or sweater and showcase a mix of our Semi-Precious Stone Rings. Focus on rich winter tones like deep emerald and sapphire blue. Stacking 3-5 rings across several fingers creates an intentional, bohemian effect.

2. Cocktail Glam: Transitioning to Evening Wear
The beauty of quality, handmade statement jewelry is its versatility. The pieces you wore effortlessly shopping on Black Friday can transition seamlessly to your company Christmas party or a New Year's Eve gathering.
Tip 3: Maximise the Minimalist Dress
You don't need a sequined gown to make an impact. A simple black velvet dress or a silky jumpsuit becomes the perfect backdrop for dramatic gold or silver accents.
- The Transformation: Select one major piece to be the star. For a v-neck or boatneck dress, choose a Long-Layered Gold Necklace (like our Celestial Pendants) that drops low. If the dress is strapless, return to bold Gold Drop Earrings that brush the shoulder.

Tip 4: The Arm Cuff & Bracelet Focal Point
If your evening look involves a ¾ length sleeve or a bracelet-length sleeve, make the most of your wrists and forearms.
-
The Transformation: A large, highly polished Arm Cuff worn high on the forearm
adds an unexpected edge that instantly elevates evening wear. Pair it with a simple,
sophisticated bangle set for movement and shine. This is a subtle power move that
works perfectly at any holiday networking event.

Pro Tip: Maintain Your Shine Through the Party Season
As you wear your favorite pieces more frequently, a little care goes a long way:
Quick Cleaning: Before and after a big event, gently wipe your jewelry with a soft, dry
polishing cloth to remove any makeup, perfume, or moisture. This simple step keeps your
Urbiana pieces looking brilliant for years to come.
