Why You Need Special Occasion Jewelry:
Preparing for that special function and you've decided on your dress, always stressful, although the more often you do it, the easier it becomes. Now comes the fun part, choosing the jewelry to wear with it, so that you look that extra bit special in it.
You need to make some basic decisions on what, and how much jewelry to wear. You don't want to go over the top, but just do enough to shine.
If you wear too much jewelry it just begins to look cluttered and takes the attention away from you.
If your top has long sleeves, you do not need a bracelet because a bracelet or bangle will show off your arms if you have short or no sleeves.
If your dress is made of a patterned material, then necklaces are going to look untidy, so be very careful when making this choice.
Earrings should be carefully matched to the colours of the dress.
Both the dress and the shape of your face need to be considered when choosing earrings. Dangle earrings will make a round face look thinner whilst round earrings draw attention to the roundness of your face.
The opposite of course is true if you have a thin or longer face. 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, but you should very carefully consider this. Understated high heels together with a small gold chain anklet can look really glamorous, however it can easily turn into looking tarty if teamed with the wrong clothes.
Fishnet stocking just don't work with ankle chains.
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 Jewelry.
Glamorous and elegant, but rarely the fun look, can be achieved with Diamond jewelry and similar gems. For that look you need select beads of various types.
Shopping for your jewelry should be fun, so leave yourself plenty of time and try on as much as you can.
There are plenty of choices out there from Trendy Fashion Jewelry and retro pieces in antique shops to the more expensive real gems.
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 - Buy a dress to show off the necklace, then buy other jewelry to enhance the whole look.
Always try to keep the whole look coordinated - don't wear gold earrings and silver rings and a different colored beaded necklace.
Decide if you like gold - or silver- or beads- or a particular colored gem and build around it.
A consistent theme will always look better, whatever the look, so 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

Professional jewelry appraisals completed by gemologists and valuers often have to take into account the effect the jewelry hallmarks have on the value of each item being appraised. Do they alter the price, up or down, depending on the hallmark. The simple answer is yes – and no. It depends on the hallmarks themselves and where they come from.
I get similar questions on forums and ‘expert’ websites, together with my own members discussion group. They are usually in the following format, and in general the same questions get asked over and over again. They go… Continue reading Jewelry Hallmarks And What They Mean...
Most people when they imagine a pearl are picturing perfect large round spherical gems, creamy white in colour with a shimmery iridescent surface. The reality is that pearls are usually irregular in shape, each one is different and to find one that is completely round is almost unheard of, not to mention trying to make a whole necklace of pearls that are all more or less the same. Natural pearls are the rarest and most highly valued variety, but nowadays most pearl jewellery is made from cultured or farmed pearls, which are grown on pearl farms… Continue reading What are the Main Differences Between Freshwater and Saltwater Pearls?...
Name jewelry is one of the trendiest types of fashion accessory for both men and women. A large part of this modern upswing in popularity is due to the hip hop culture where large name jewelry items have become the defining fashion in bling. While much of the current fashion is large, bling-style pieces, name jewelry can range from delicate and subtle to big and bold. But name jewelry is also very popular as traditional mothers jewelry. Name rings and name necklaces are by far the most popular items with online stores and retailers… Continue reading Name Jewelry Trends...
