There’s something magical about the way summer drifts into autumn. The air turns crisp, the trees set themselves ablaze with golden, amber and crimson tones, and suddenly everything feels a little more nostalgic, like slipping into a favourite jumper and sipping the first pumpkin spiced latte of the year. And just as we rotate our wardrobes, it’s the perfect time to add a splash of burnt orange into our layered jewellery look.
At Boho Betty, we love how our jewellery can echo the seasons, playful and bright in summer, but warm, grounding and full of character when autumn comes around. This season, we’re leaning into those fiery amber jewellery hues, burnt oranges, deep reds and mellow golds that mirror fallen leaves and sunset skies.
Why Autumn Layering Feels So Good
Autumn fashion is all about feel good styling, patterned fabrics paired with cosy knits, shirts under cardigans, studded ankle booties teamed with flowing skirts. Jewellery should do the same. Layering bracelets, necklaces and rings creates depth and warmth, like adding a sprinkle of cinnamon to your latte or a colourful scarf to the strap of your cross body bag.
Instead of summer’s floral or coastal toned stacks, think fuller, more textured looks: burnt orange bracelets with chunky gold chains, beaded wraps with fiery hued stones, delicate silver and gemstone bracelets stacked against chunky braided designs. It’s that perfect blend of relaxed boho and earthy chic, the kind of detail that takes your autumn outfits from simple to standout!
Orange & Red Agate: Our Autumn Gemstone for 2025
Nothing says autumn quite like those gorgeous maple leaf hues. Whether you’re reaching for a bright bead necklace, a bold stretch bead bracelet, or dainty woven bracelet, its honeyed glow feels like wearing a piece of sunset on your skin. Orange and Red Agate are known as the stones of strength, passion and creativity. With their rich, fiery tones they are said to bring warmth and balance to your energy, connecting you to the root and sacral chakras. This uplifting crystal is believed to boost vitality, spark self-confidence and encourage emotional harmony, the kind of stones that help you feel grounded in yourself while opening up to joy and deeper connections with others.
This season we teamed up with the wonderful Sammy Duder (@theturquoiseflamingo) to showcase her effortless take on autumnal layering. With her signature mix of laid-back luxury and trend-led styling, Sammy stacks our bracelets in rich reds and warm golden tones, the perfect colour palette for cosy autumn days. From coffee catch-ups to Sunday strolls, her edit shows just how easy it is to add a little boho-luxe sparkle to every outfit.

Autumn Outfit Ideas With Jewellery Layers
Autumn is the season made for layering, not just with cosy knits and scarves, but with jewellery too. As the air turns cooler, there’s something so satisfying about building up textures and lengths to create a look that feels as rich and inviting as the season itself.
- For casual days: Take your go-to jeans and crisp shirt and add a few layered bracelets, mixing beaded strands with a sleek chain or two. It’s the easiest way to elevate an everyday outfit without trying too hard.
- For cosy layers: Pair your favourite chunky jumper with necklaces in different lengths. A choker close to the neckline, a mid-length pendant and a longer drop piece add instant depth and texture, almost like jewellery that mimics the layers in your wardrobe.
- For evenings out: Autumn brings its fair share of candlelit dinners and late-night plans. Swap the oversized knitwear for something slinkier and add dainty amber CZ hoops, stacked gemstone bracelets and a modern chunky chain necklace. A layered wrist stack will catch the light beautifully when you raise a glass.
- For boho-inspired looks: Floaty dresses and ankle boots aren’t just for summer festivals, with the addition of sheer tights they carry perfectly into autumn. Layer up your favourite beaded bracelets to keep that free-spirited vibe alive, adding a few extra strands for a fuller, more grounded feel.
Think of it as styling your jewellery the way you’d style your clothes, building up layers, textures and details until you hit that perfect balance of comfort and individuality. Effortlessly layered jewellery always adds a playfully put together element to your style.
Mixing Metals and Textures
Autumn is forgiving when it comes to mixing things up. Try silver bead bracelets layered with gold chunky chains, or pair faceted gemstone beads with a mix of metallics. Don’t be afraid to add texture, a chunky woven friendship bracelet, a gemstone stretch bracelet, and a simple chain can all live happily together. The trick is colour harmony: stick to that autumn palette that suits you best.
Autumnal Colour palettes we Love!
If fiery, bold oranges aren’t quite your vibe, and if the mythical phoenix rising from the flames doesn’t feel like your spirit animal, don’t worry, autumn still has plenty of treasures for you. This season is all about variety and balance, which means you can lean into softer, earthier shades that feel more “you.” Think deep berry pinks, mossy greens and smoky neutrals, colours that echo star-scattered skies, glowing lanterns, harvest moons and woodland walks. The beauty of autumn jewellery is that it doesn’t need to be loud to be expressive; sometimes the gentler tones bring just as much magic, adding depth, warmth and a little seasonal sparkle in a way that feels effortless.

Make Autumn Your Season of Meaning
Layering jewellery isn’t just about looking good, it’s about feeling grounded and connected to the season around you. Romanticising the seasons is a gentle way of finding joy in every chapter of the year. It isn’t always easy to wave goodbye to long summer days, and the impending darker months can sometimes leave us feeling a little flat. But by leaning into the small rituals of autumn, the cosy knits, the golden leaves, the layered jewellery that feels like a hug in accessory form, we can reclaim that sense of wonder. When you choose to celebrate each season for what it brings, you create moments of lightness and beauty that carry you through, even when the days feel shorter.
