Brooches are back, and they’re more versatile than ever. Once considered a vintage treasure or something reserved for special occasions, this timeless accessory has re-emerged as a modern must-have.

This Autumn/Winter, brooches are being reimagined by people of all ages, styled effortlessly across everything from cosy knitwear to tailored blazers and structured coats. Bringing a touch of nostalgia with a contemporary twist, the brooch is one of the standout jewellery trends of 2025.

Our Filigree Rose Brooches in sterling silver and 18ct gold-plated sterling silver celebrate intricate craftsmanship and feminine detailing, adding refined elegance to any look. For something more romantic, our Filigree Heart Brooches offer a delicate way to infuse sentiment and style into your everyday wardrobe.

Chunky Silhouettes

We’re seeing big earring energy this Autumn/Winter 2025. When it comes to earring trends, bigger and bolder styles continue to dominate. These statement pieces frame the face beautifully and don’t need much else to make an impact. They’re the ultimate expression of confidence and bold personality, and we’re so here for it!

Our gold-plated ribbed oval stud earrings and gold-plated half hoop earrings bring everyday elegance with a touch of drama, perfect for elevating both casual and festive looks. Whether you’re dressing up for a night out or simply adding polish to those in-between Christmas and New Year days when you’re not quite sure what day it is, these pieces strike the perfect balance between effortless and eye-catching.

The chunky jewellery trend is also making its mark on bracelet styling this season. Our twisted link bracelets, available in sterling silver and 18ct gold-plated sterling silver, add a bold, sculptural touch to your wrist. They’re ideal for adding to your bracelet stack or wearing solo when you want your jewellery to do the talking.

Layered Necklaces

Layered necklaces continue to be one of the most on-trend jewellery looks for Autumn/Winter 2025. The art of combining varied lengths, textures, and styles creates a look that instantly elevates any neckline. While layering has long been a favourite in the world of jewellery, this season it’s evolving and is becoming even more popular.

At NJO, we’ve always loved the freedom that comes with layering, whether it’s necklaces, bracelets, rings, or earrings. Our AW25 collection features a range of pieces designed to work harmoniously together, helping you create an on-trend layered necklace look with ease. Try pairing our 9ct gold small bubble heart necklace with our 9ct gold CZ drop necklace for a delicate, dainty combination that feels timeless yet fresh.

Forget the pearls your grandmother used to wear; in Autumn/Winter 2025, they’re getting a contemporary makeover. Think asymmetric shapes, delicate charms, and unexpected pairings.

Our gold-plated ball & pearl charm necklace brings a youthful, modern twist to this timeless favourite, reimagining the classic strand with playful movement and subtle shine.

No longer reserved for eveningwear, pearls now pair beautifully with everyday knitwear, structured blazers, and even denim, adding a fresh, luminous accent to your autumn wardrobe.

Mixed Metals

One of the most exciting jewellery trends continuing into Autumn/Winter 2025 is the art of mixing metals. Over the past year, this look has grown in popularity, and it’s only getting stronger. Silver and gold are no longer rivals; together, they create a modern contrast that feels effortless and elevated.

At NJO, we love expressing this trend through a curated bracelet stack. Pairing our silver CZ set bangle with our gold-plated CZ clover bangle and layering alongside our silver CZ tennis bangle creates a dynamic mix that feels both intentional and effortlessly cool. Learn more about how to stack in our bracelet stacking guide. Mixing metals adds dimension, texture, and depth, and when styled right, it can completely transform your look.
