Jewelry

Like a basic clothing wardrobe you can build a basic collection of jewelry with a few pieces that can be worn for many years and on numerous occasions. The two most important considerations when choosing jewelry are quality and choosing pieces that complement you. For instance, you should choose pieces according to your face shape, hair style, hair color, skin tone, and body proportion. Remember to buy the best that you can afford! A purchase of fine jewelry is a worthy investment.

This season the "cuff" (a classic style) bracelet is making a big comeback. It gets its name from its similarity to a cuff on a blouse. The cuff bracelet is also a classic that you can wear anytime. If you want to add just one item this season-go for a cuff bracelet.

Designers have pearls falling all over garments and they are being used in new ways for jewelry.  According to an article in the Financial Times, Linda Fargo, women's fashion director at Bergdorf Goodman says "...the style pendulum has swung in favour of these pretty little white gems-they are the newer jewel."

A lot can be learned through trial and error when it comes to choosing earrings. The true test is checking the mirror to see how they look on you with the outfit you are wearing. To find the best earrings for you It is important to determine your face shape. Next when purchasing and wearing earrings consider the earring size, and shape, and your skin tone. If you have tiny features something lighter looking will suit you best. The opposite is true if you are a large woman, a larger size will flatter you.

Wearable art, miniature sculptures, and one of a kind jewelry are all terms used to describe sculptured gemstones. Stones used in these designs are jade, turquoise, opal, rose quartz, mother of pearl, aquamarines, tourmaline's, etc.

While I pay attention to the dress color, the woman's particular colors and features in her face (and body), most important is whether the woman likes it or not. Is she comfortable in it, and does she believe she's beautiful and powerful. If she does,  then she is. I design from this foundation, so awoman has only to choose, commit, and succeed!

A gemstone is a mineral rock or petrified material that when cut or faceted and polished can be used in jewelry or is a collectible. Others are organic. Some are too fragile to be used in jewelry, but can be seen on display in museums.
