We’ve Gathered Some Jewelry Intelligence You Need To Know Stat
The right accessories can make or break an outfit. When wearing jewelry, you should carefully select the pieces you use to complete your look. But how do you know what jewelry you should be wearing? Here are a few tips that will help you select the perfect jewelry for any occasion.
When dealing with precious and fragile stone jewelry, take them to get professionally cleaned. This is much better than scratching or destroying them yourself with regular jewelry cleaners. Even the jewelry cloths may be too much for some stones. Make sure though that they are not cleaned too often as this can be very counterproductive and actually weaken the stones.
Only purchase jewelry from well known retailers. If you are looking to purchase gold, silver or platinum make sure that the retailer has a professional set up and that their products come with a guarantee. Do not purchase from unknown vendors who claim that the jewelry they are selling at a discount price is made from real precious metals or gemstones, they are often imported fakes.
Don’t go overboard with jewelry. Wear one or two statement pieces with each of your outfits. Meanwhile it can be tempting to show off your collection, remember that everything should have a focal point, including your outfit. Choose a small pair of stud earrings with a matching delicate necklace for a conservative and casual everyday look or go bold with dangling earrings and a matching chunky bracelet. This creates a focal point in a positive way without overwhelming the eye.
There are two types of categories that jewelry falls under. Fine jewelry is jewelry made from silver, gold or platinum and is combined with any precious or semi- precious gemstones. Jewelry classified as costume is any form of jewelry made from low cost metals that contain only a silver or gold surface finish as well as synthetic or plastic “gemstones”. Both categories have their pros and cons, and it really depends on personal taste and budget that helps determine which to buy.
Jewelry can take an outfit from ordinary to stunning, but it’s important to select your jewelry carefully. A little jewelry goes a long way, and the wrong piece can clash with an otherwise stylish ensemble. As you decide what jewelry you should wear, keep the advice in this article in mind. It will ensure that your jewelry makes the fashion statement you want it to make.
