Gray jeans offer a versatile style, taking the basic look of black jeans a step further and creating a unique, trendy aesthetic.

In the chill of winter, there's a new fashion trend that's warming up the runway - and it's all about the power of jewelry. This season, the author is embracing a jewelry phase, finding it particularly appealing against dull knits. One standout outfit, built around a bright green beanie from Imogene and Willie, demonstrates how to inject warmth, texture, and visual interest into a grey jeans ensemble.

The beanie was paired with a grey base and a black coat, making a striking contrast. To add a hint of femininity and break the monotony, the author recommends jewelry with warm tones such as gold or brass, and pieces that have a delicate or statement quality. For example, adding gold jewelry like earrings, a bracelet, or a necklace can introduce warmth and softness, which contrasts nicely with the cool neutrality of grey jeans.

Delicate or vintage-style jewelry can add unique feminine details without overwhelming the outfit, such as vintage-inspired earrings or layered necklaces. Statement earrings or pendants can draw attention upwards, visually breaking the fabric dominance from head to toe. Selecting jewelry in warm metals (gold, brass) rather than silver brings contrast and dimension, since grey is a neutral cool tone. Incorporating a pop of color subtly via accessories like earrings with colored stones or enamel can also refresh the look without clashing, complementing the grey base.

Some jewellery pieces mentioned in this outfit include the Madewell Sculptural Droplet Statement Earrings (also available in gold), Mejuri Beaded Ring, Mejuri Thin Dome Rings, and the James Avery Foxtail Chain Necklace (wearing 18in). For those on a budget, a pearl necklace under $40 was mentioned as a good find for real pearls.

For those who prefer a pop of colour in their accessories, the author suggests the Adidas Samba Sneakers. For those who prefer a more classic and timeless look, a vintage Dainty Double Stone Ring has similar options like the Linjer 14k Gold Three Diamond Ring (under $200).

As for coat options, Aritzia Fairmont Wool Coat, Quince Wool Slouch Coat, Reformation Downing Wool Blend Coat, and Aritzia Estate Wool Coat were suggested. For those looking for a more affordable grey sweater, Quince Cashmere Fisherman Sweater and H&M Fine Knit Sweater were mentioned as similar options.

To complete the outfit, the author is considering pulling out her cowboy boots, and a $3 Canvas Tote was suggested for a practical and stylish touch. Lastly, Beyonce's Texas Hold 'Em song was mentioned as a fitting soundtrack for this winter wardrobe transformation. So, embrace the power of jewelry and warm tones this winter, and watch your outfits come alive!
