Ah, Halloween! That time of year when the veil between the living and the dead shrinks thin and the spooky spirits come out to play.
Whether you’re planning an epic costume that’ll put Frankenstein to shame or simply want to sprinkle some eerie elegance over your subtle Halloween ‘fit, colored gemstones are just what you need to go from basic to bewitching! Think mysterious white pearls, eerie green emeralds and blood-red rubies… they’re attention-grabbing, festive and oh-so-sparkly.
6 Halloween-Worthy Gemstones to Add to the Spooky Vibe
1. Blood-Red Rubies
When you see the color red, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind (Besides love, of course)? Is it danger? Passion?
TBH, we see the perfect hue for your Halloween costume!
With its rich, deep shade akin to the color of blood, this gem is just what you need to channel your inner Count Dracula—or for the Twilight girlies out there, your inner Bella Swan (with a twist).
Want to know the best part? These glittering gems aren’t just for Halloween horror nights. Check out our article titled ‘Can rubies be worn every day?’ to know how you can add this stunner to your daily rotation.

2. Mysterious White Pearls
While orange and black might be the traditional Halloween holiday colors, there’s something hauntingly beautiful about these white orbs. It’s kinda like capturing the ethereal glow of a full moon on your neck. Plus, they match perfectly with the eerie mist that often accompanies October nights.
But here’s the fun part: you don’t have to stick to the classic ghost-of-a-bride costume to make pearls work their magic. This Halloween, you can let your inner child take the steering wheel and get a little whimsical with a mermaidcore or Barbiecore look.
Thanks to their live-action remakes, these two aesthetics have been raging this year. And what better way to highlight the perfection of your mermaid look than with the gem of the sea? As for Barbie, we can’t think of anything better than a double- or triple-strand necklace to help you emulate the famous pink dress and pearls look from one of Margot Robbie’s press tours. Bonus points if you can get your Ken to join in! *wink*

3. As-Black-as-It-Gets Onyx
When it comes to Halloween, darkness is the name of the game. Try to imagine this holiday without classic Halloween movies like The Conjuring… Impossible, right?
Well, onyx is here to keep that dark mystique alive with a rather sophisticated vibe. Featuring a deep black hue, this gem beautifully encapsulates the magic and allure of Halloween, making it the perfect choice for those who want to add a touch of enigmatic charm to their attire. And with the goth-romance aesthetic setting the fashion stage on fire, we wouldn’t blame you for wanting to rock a black onyx for an equally stylish yet sinister Wednesday Addams look.

6. Love-Struck Red Garnets
Of course, we couldn’t let this article or Halloween end without talking about love-struck red garnets.
While Halloween is synonymous with spooks and scares, it can also be a time for love—albeit with a devilish twist. The deep-red garnet is a fabulous choice for those who want to embrace the softer side of Halloween. After all, just because the night is dark and full of terrors doesn’t mean your costume has to be!
So, what are you waiting for? Take a rebellious detour from the typical scare fare by showcasing your inner Cupid with the rich, romantic red tones of the garnet. And who knows, you might just find yourself playing matchmaker amidst the ghouls and goblins!

Barbie, mermaid, vampire and cupid are a few trendy Halloween looks to try this year. And gemstone jewelry is a great way to add to the spooky vibe of your ‘fit!
Halloween originated from ancient Celtic festivals, particularly Samhain, marking the end of the harvest season and presenting the belief that the souls of the dead return to their homes. However, it has now evolved into a fun, festive occasion where people embrace the eerie and enjoy themed activities.
The name ‘Halloween’ is derived from “All Hallows’ Eve,” which refers to the evening before the Christian holiday of All Saints’ Day.
