Opal Jewelry for Every Occasion: Styling Tips for October’s Birthstone
Discover how to effortlessly style October’s mesmerizing birthstone, opal, for every occasion with its magical glow.
Of all the gemstones, one of the most alluring is the opal; meanwhile, its color-shifting capability and mysterious glow captivate the hearts of people. With October birthstone jewelry, you can break the monotony with elegance and a little bit of magic in almost any dress, either to a party or casual event. Ready to know how to style this stunning gem? Alright, let's look at some of our designs at Rogers & Hollands | Ashcroft & Oak that will make a case for some of the best jewelry collections for special events.
How to Wear Opal Jewelry on Casual Dates
Opal is always dramatic; however, it may also be an exquisite everyday piece. A dainty opal stud earring pair or plain opal pendant necklace will add a little sparkle to your everyday casual day look without overdoing it.
Personal tip: My favorite is pairing an opal ring with a denim and white blouse combo. They create a fresh, chic look, which lifts your everyday style effortlessly.
Office Style of Opal Jewelry
Office wear is where you balance professional aspects with a hint of your style. Then there are more subtle opal pieces, like a dainty opal bracelet or small hoop earrings with a lot of the hoop covered up with tiny opal accents. These will keep your look polished and sophisticated yet still add a pop of personality.
For a slightly bolder statement, there's the minimalist opal ring: so refined for those business meetings but still showing that spark of glow from the opal.

For formal events, an October birthstone jewelry showpiece can look stunning. This applies to larger and more intricately detailed pieces that give one the beauty of the gemstone on display. They may become the showpiece of the outfit: an opal chandelier earring or a cocktail ring that's a breath of heaven.
One of my favorite formal looks has been the strapless dress paired with an eye-catching opal statement necklace—the way the opal reflects light is like a glimpse into the metaphysical, giving you this ethereal ambiance all over your look, making you seem like a star walking the red carpet.

Why wear an opal alone? Mixing opals with other gemstones would give it a more dynamic and vibrant look. Try pairing it with diamonds for the classic combination or with sapphires and emeralds for something colorful and eclectic.
For example, the opal and diamond ring is just an eye-catcher in terms of balance between the dreamy color play of the opal and the sparkle of the diamond. In case you wish to make a bolder statement, go for the opal and ruby. The contrast between the stones is just stunning.
Care Instructions for Opals
Opals are very fragile stones that require a little extra care to keep looking fresh. Here are a few tips:
● Do not expose it to water. Water is also contained within the opal, so you should avoid getting your opal wet. Avoid wearing your opal jewelry when swimming or showering.
● Handle it with care: Opals are very sensitive to temperature changes, so keep it in a cool, dry place, preferably in a soft pouch to avoid scratching.
● Clean them gently. Clean your opal jewelry using a soft, damp cloth; you should never use harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners.
● With appropriate care, your opal jewelry will be just as beautiful as it was when you purchased it.
Final Note
Opal jewelry is truly unique with its mesmerizing changing colors and its mystique. Dressing up for a night out, to work, or down the aisle, opal gives that touch of glamor and charm to the occasion. And from your casual outings to your wedding day, there's always the perfect way to wear an opal.
