Accessorising can make or break any outfit. And that holds true for jewellery. To really jazz up a blah outfit, it is important to match the right jewellery. So if you plan on going out and buying some, check out the latest trends before doing the deed. The choice out there is so varied and vast that it is not exactly easy to choose just the right kind of jewellery. What is fashionable jewellery? Is it what everyone is wearing? Or is it what you love wearing? Isn’t it better to wear goofy jewellery but be comfortable in it rather than wear something that just does not define you? Since accessories complete a look, it is alright to be a bit choosy while buying jewellery. Don’t ever rush into buying something just for the sake of buying something.
The look of the moment happens to be silver. Anything in silver, be it ear rings, rings, belts, bracelets, or even nose gays, is preferred in silver today. If you are not totally into silver and prefer gold, why not try white gold instead? The popularity of silver lies in its versatility. It goes with anything and everything. There isn’t a single piece of clothing ever created that silver doesn’t go with. It goes great with the bohemian style that presently rules the fashion scene. To top the trendy list, try matching silver with some fake or real (if you can afford it!) gems. Instead of overdoing the gems in ear rings, stick to a simple design in a bracelet or even a neck piece.
Most silver jewellery comes in a set today, but it would be fun if you mixed and matched the jewellery a little. Don’t wear matching ear rings and necklace together. Opt for some variety. Try a silver necklace with a tribal bracelet. Ooh la la!
Another major trend doing the rounds is that of wearing diamonds. When the word diamond is mentioned, don’t get all anxious. Fake diamonds totally rule too. Ever heard of Zirconium? Well it gives a shine that competes with an actual diamond. If you do wear a real diamond, do not wear it with any metal. Let the diamond shine through. But if it is not real, team it with white gold, platinum or silver, to give it a snazzy look which has timeless appeal.
The bigger the better! That is the new mantra when it comes to jewellery today. Massive jewellery is another trend that has been doing the rounds in the fashion circle lately. Small gems are fused together to create a bigger shine. Cocktail rings are getting bigger. Funky, rock inspired, jewellery seems to be the hot favourite. Felted wool, pearls, bone, stone, and even wood seems to be the favoured this season. The new rule seems to be, Anything Goes!”
So while you decide and try to make up your mind, here’s a tip, don’t bother too much about it. It doesn’t matter if the colour clashes with your dress or your shoes or even your hair. As long as it makes you happy, you have set a new trend for yourself!
