It’s a common mistake to ruin your fabulous outfit with the wrong piece of jewelry. Learn how to avoid those mistakes and pick the right piece!
Go Bold and Beautiful
Wearing the bold jewelry takes confidence and fashion know-how. The main thing to remember is ‘less is more’. Forget the ‘bling-bling’ ring and big earrings, if you’re wearing a chunky bangle and necklace. Don’t wear prints when you’re wanted to wear big and bold jewelry. It’s perfect as sleek all-black and all-white with big or colorful jewelry. You can have fun with the coral and turquoise and the last thing to remember is the larger a stone, the less real it looks.
Mix Metals
Wearing gold with gold and silver with silver can creating a more traditional look. The trick is, keep the style of modern jewelry the same, if you want to mix the metals. A modern gold cuff won’t look right paired back to dainty, antique platinum and diamond earrings. The ‘stacking trend’ lends itself perfectly to the mixing of metals. Stack square or round rings or bangles in different shades of gold and you can even layer gold and silver necklaces for a fashion forward look.
Wear the Right Necklace Lengths
Wearing the wrong length necklace with a particular neckline is probably the most common mistake that women make when it comes to wear the jewellery. Here are some simple guidelines for getting it right.
* Collar necklace should lie snugly around the middle of the neck, and can be worn with boat-neck, V-neck and off-the-shoulder tops.
* Chokers fall perfectly at the base of the neck and it looks great with strapless or plunging necklines.
*Princess length necklaces (17-19 inches) fall just below the throat. This is the most common and versatile length of necklace. It can also be worn with most necklines except the high ones and add a V-neck for a pretty look.
* Matinee length necklaces (20-24 inches) hit the top of the bust and it’s best not to wear with plunging necklines. It will be fighting for the attention with your top, if the necklace hits the very top of your neckline.
* Opera length necklaces (28-34 inches) fall below the bust and look great with a very high neckline. It can be worn from day to evening and this length can be doubled for a multi-strand look.
Considering Your Age and Body Type
It can also draw attention to your not-so-positive areas as a piece of jewelry can accentuate the positive.
* The chokers are made for women with more youthful skin and the one who have an aging necks will want longer chains and necklaces to draw attention from any neck imperfections.
* You can balance that by wearing the graduated necklace, if you’re having a wide neck, which are very thin around the side of the neck and larger below the collarbone.
* Try a triple-strand necklace, with the shortest strand hugging the base of the throat, if you have a long, thin neck that you don’t want to accentuate and avoid V-shaped chains.
