How To Choose Your Jewelry For That Special Occasion

So you have a special evening function to attend. You’ve decided on your dress, always stressful, although the more often you do it, the easier it becomes. Choosing the jewelry to accessorize the dress to make it look that extra bit special can really be the fun part.

You need to make some basic decisions on what, and how much jewelry to wear. You want to shine but not look as if you have gone over the top. It may well look over the top if and take the focus away from the dress if too cluttered.

You won’t want a bracelet if your dress has long sleeves.Short sleeves and  a bangle or bracelet will show off graceful arms. Necklaces can look cluttered if you have a strongly patterned dress. The color of the dress may quickly decide what earings to wear

When you start to look at buying earrings you should look at the shape of your face as well as your dress. If you have a round face, then dangly earrings will make you look slimmer whilst the roundness of your face will be highlighted by round earrings.If you have a thin face, the the opposite is true. The wow factor can be achieved by using matching earrings and necklace to give that together look, especially if they are sparkly.

An ankle bracelet will show off your long legs, especially with a short skirt. You should very carefully consider this. A small gold chain with understated high heeled shoes can look glamorous, however it can easily turn into looking tarty if teamed with the wrong clothes. Never, ever wear an ankle chain with fishnet stockings.

At the end of the day, you should decide on the look you want to create – glamorous; fun; elegant. That look can the be enhanced by the choice of Jewelty. Diamond jewelry (or gems to look like diamonds) can look elegant or glamorous but rarely look fun. Beads and stones can give the fun look. Shopping for your jewelry should be fun. Leave yourself plenty of time and try on as much as you can. Antique jewelry, Trendy Fashion Jewelry, and very expensive real stones are just a few of the options open to you.

You could of course turn this whole process on its head if you have a special item of jewelry that you really want to wear. Choose other items to compliment the special piece and then select the dress that really highlights it. Don’t mix gold rings, beaded necklace, and silver earings, try to keep it all coordinated. Build carefully around a carefully chosen and consistent theme. Whatever look you’re after, it will still look better if you build it around a particular theme.

Enjoy choosing the jewelry for your special event, and enjoy looking your best. Don’t stress over the decisions to be made along the way
