Must-Have Traditional Jewellery Picks to Shine Through Navratri Nights
Navratri is not simply a festival, it is a feeling. Nine nights covered in devotion, music, colors, and unending dancing. It is that time of the year when everyone rejoices and celebrates tradition in the most joyous way.
An aspect of Navratri that many people will partake in is dressing up. Vibrant lehengas, twirling dupattas, sparkling bindis- the real magic lies in the jewellery you wear. Whether you are dancing the night away at Garba, or attending a puja, the right jewellery will make every look you have shine through.
If you are searching for some pieces to add to your festive wardrobe this year, here is a guide to the must-have traditional jewellery picks you need this Navratri to stand out all nine nights.
Temple Jewellery: Divine Elegance for Devotional Night
There may be no other style that exudes as much history and elegance as temple jewellery. This jewellery style dates back centuries in South India, and is made up of the incredible jewellery that was once used to adorn temples’ deities. Temple jewellery is layered with god and goddess motifs, peacock and lotus motifs, one of the most revered symbols in Indian culture, thus, temple jewellery is not your everyday jewellery.
Why it’s great for Navratri:
Navratri is a festival based on devotion, and temple jewellery feels like a piece made of that same devotion. Temple jewellery is bold and ornate and beautiful, which works well to elevate your outfit and make it feel regal.
How to style it:
Combine a heavier temple necklace set with a silk saree or embroidered lehenga for puja nights.
Add matching jhumkas or bangles to finish the touch.
If your outfit is already bold, let one temple statement piece be the focus.
Necklace Sets – The Showstoppers of Navratri
A necklace set is the only accessory that can turn your outfit around in seconds! With everything from traditional kundan chokers to long layered chains, necklace sets let you make a statement.

If you're dancing your heart out during Navratri for hours like many, comfort is all you need. Artificial jewellery is lightweight, and styles like sophisticated chokers, oxidized neckpieces, and layered chains with beads will allow you to relax and enjoy.
What's also great about artificial jewellery is that you can mix and match every night! You can sport oxidized silver jewellery one evening, gold-toned artificial necklace sets another evening, and also include colourful enamel pieces that represent the colour of the day.
Styling Tips to Change Your Navratri Jewellery Game
Now that you have your essentials, here are a few style secrets to help you shine bright this Festival season:
Match the Color of the Day
Each night of Navratri has a designated color. For example, pair temple gold jewellery with red or orange; silver oxidized with grey or blue; and kundan with green or white.
Balance Boldness
If you are wearing a heavy temple necklace, wear lighter earrings. If you are choosing a pair of large hinged earrings, keep your neck simple with a fine chain.
Layer Smartly
Layering is not just stylish, it's celebratory! Consider pairing a choker with a long chain necklace for added depth and drama.
Comfort is Key
Dandiya nights are full of energy & very long! When you know you will be spending the night dancing, make sure you select lightweight artificial jewellery.
Mix Metals for Fun
Don't be afraid to mix gold and silver-toned jewellery. Mixing metals may feel modern but still allows your overall look to have a traditional feel.
Final Thoughts
Navratri is a golden opportunity to celebrate tradition in style. Whether it's the traditional elegance of temple jewellery, the statement appeal of a necklace set or the convenience of artificial jewellery, each piece contributes to the festive fun of your look.
So, this Navratri, let your jewellery do more than accessorize, let it declare your spirit, your joy and your love for tradition. Shine bright, dance free and shine like the goddess you are celebrating.
