How do I get my match earrings

The color of your earrings is an important characteristic that you must match to your outfit.

A nicely colored pair of earrings can compliment your eye color and facial features, as well as your style. Try a lot of different colors with different outfits until you find the colors that look best with your complexion and that match the dominating colors of your wardrobe.

To Gem or Not to Gem

Should be based on occasion and your personal preference.
- Small gemstones are good for an added shine to everyday clothing.
- Large gemstones can be worn for special occasions.

Smaller or Bigger

Each sized earring highlights the features of the face, but not every sized earring is for every person.
- Overly sized earrings can draw attention to themselves and away from your face.
- Too small earrings won’t get noticed, your job is to find the happy-medium that works for you.

Remember - an earrings are accessories and they should match your outfit not the other way around, therefore, don’t buy earrings that you know will not go with any of your outfits.

Jewelry Boxes

Jewelry-BoxesWhere do you keep your jewelry? Loose in the bottom of a sock? Under your undies? In your back pocket? For heaven’s sake, not out in the open on your dresser or nightstand? No, we’re sure you use a jewelry box. Although it isn’t the law, it is the best solution. You can always keep it in a safe for greater safety, but jewelry deserves a home as special as the jewelry itself. It helps to preserve, display and eases selection when you have negative 25 minutes to be out the door for that famous function. Let’s consider some options if your jewelry box could use and upgrade.

Although there are many styles available and special stands for necklaces out in the open – we even found a multi-pocketed plastic hanger for the closet – we will only focus on boxes here. They show a sense of modesty and charm that you can’t get from other jewelry storage methods. Now, let’s look at options for your rings. A common way to keep your rings is the felt squeezers that are often those used by fashion jewelry sellers in the local mall. Although this worked for them and helps them to quickly spot items that go missing, we opt for the many small boxes within a drawer. This allows the rings to lay loose and makes them easier to pick out and replace. After all, chances are that you won’t forget the rings you have and you won’t need them displayed as a shop would.

This can also work for pendants and charms, but it is often hard to pick out the smaller ones if they are in the bottom of a small box. What is the best solution? The best is to pick a box that has drawers with shallow boxes. They needn’t be too deep unless you have a large selection of brooches. This brings us to an important point.

Before shopping for a new jewelry box, it makes sense to do a bit of an inventory of your collection – not only what you currently have, but also what you plan to get in the near future. Also, more than one jewelry box is an excellent choice as it helps you to organize different items of different styles and prevents you from over-cluttering or having big open spaces. You’ll also want to look at all the beautiful styles of finishing.

The most popular are the lacquered styles. There are so many beautiful Asian styles in reds and browns as well as Egyptian styles that look ancient and give the jewelry a nice luxurious home. You may also opt for the bright colors that are more modern looking with some new designs and tiered construction. We recommend a box with a mirror inside the lid. This helps for a quick look at how this or that item may look, be it earrings or bracelets – whatever you pull out of the box in a hurry. Also, it’s not a bad idea to consider your lifestyle. If you are often in a hurry to grab something and put it on as you are running out the door, pick a jewelry box that will let you do that without disturbing all the items or causing frustration while you try to get at your favorite piece.

Buying a new jewelry box can renew your jewelry experience and remind you of pieces you have that you never wear, and also help you see what items you might want to add to your collection. Happy organizing!

New Trends in Jewelry

New-Trends-in-JewelryDo you like to stay on top of the trends? Then you probably want your jewelry to not only reflect your lavish and bold lifestyle, but also your cutting edge interests and hip, up-to-the-minute coolness. Yep, us, too.  Here are some things we learned that might be helpful.

Some new trends are towards bold, asymmetrical designs with lots of texture, and in colors that are often drawn from nature. Designers are using woods with visible grains to make showy beads. Striped stones, such as agate, are becoming more popular for adding a nice visual texture. Color and texture seem to be key elements in new designs. People are also getting into all-metal jewelry. The hammered look is gaining in popularity. You’ll find some nice examples in white metals, but yellows occupy the number one slot, and are popular in shades of rose to deep gold.

Celebrities are wearing many necklaces more and more showing a kind of layered look. Sometimes they are super heavy, clunky designs. Since celebrities are usually on the cutting edge of style — jewelry they’re wearing today may be on retail racks in coming seasons. Whether that is practical wear for you and I, is questionable. But, not all fashion trends reach all of us.

Wooden bangles and bangles made with resins are gaining popularity. Those embellished with beads, metals and other components are getting more wear and attention. Resins are big for the flash they add which you can’t always get from organics. Chandelier earrings are in style for dressy events, and delicate designs look nice without ripping holes in your earlobes. Heavy is never good in earrings. Other than that, no other big changes in the world of ear-wear. Keep wearing your plain diamond studs and princess cut diamond studs – they will never go out of style. Be careful about hoop earrings. They are not for everyone at every occasion, despite what we are seeing some do. Hammered hoops are a nice alternative to the standard hoop.

Large cocktail rings and brooches have been on the rise lately. Styles vary from vintage-ornate to whimsical, so pick the ones that work for you. Bracelets with bold wooden looks are in, but so are the very bright and colorful that you get with semi-precious stones and resins. We don’t need to remind you that many people are still feeling a bit of a financial crunch and this is affecting their buying styles. Even if the Hollywood rich and famous are able to wear some things that we could only dream about, trends are trends, and the designers encourage showing off what people will actually be able to buy. This was especially true when times were hard in the past and designer trends shifted the looks to accommodate the challenges of World War II.

Despite limitations and other issues, there are always plenty of choices and today is no exception. There are plenty of beautiful styles to keep you on your toes and in vogue. Stop by your local jeweler and demand the latest to accentuate your cool and hip look. You only live once, don’t y

Famous Designers: Chanel

Famou-Designers-ChanelThe legend of Chanel started in 1909 when the fashion industry was still finding its way by Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel in France. The head designer is Karl Lagerfeld, and the products are haute couture (top fashion), Perfume, Jewelry and Fashion accessories.

In the beginning, Gabrielle Chanel opened a shop on the ground floor of Balsan’s apartment in Paris. Balsan’s would soon become the center of fashion for the world, and it became a meeting place of the hunting elite of France. When the gentlemen brought along their ladies, this provided Gabrielle – or ‘Coco’ – the opportunity to sell the women decorated hats. One of the friends Coco made at this time was Arthur ‘Boy’ Capel. He would prove to be important to Coco’s success.

He considered her to be a good businesswoman and so helped her to expand. Her designs tended to be simple rather than flashy and she appealed to women doing the factory jobs that men had held prior to the war. Her fashion became known in 1915 throughout France for its simplicity.

Many people know Chanel for its perfume, specifically Chanel #5. Chanel started with fragrances in 1924 with Pierre Wertheimer. He was tasked to produce and sell perfumes and beauty products. Because of the way the business deal was struck, Coco operated her couture business apart from the perfume division. In 1924, she also introduced her first costume jewelry which was a pair of pearl earrings, one black, one white. Soon, the Chanel empire expanded even more, but not without first experiencing some ups and downs with World War II and Germany’s occupation of France during that time.

In 1953, Coco staged a comeback. With her unerring sense of style, she became the single most prestigious label in all of fashion again. She collaborated with jeweler Robert Goossens to design a line of Chanel jewelry which exquisitely complimented her fashion designs. She also re-launched her signature “Chanel Suit”. She also introduced the Chanel gold or metallic chain-strapped and quilted leather handbags in February 1955. Chanel’s eau de toilette for men, Pour Monsieur became, endured and remains even today the number one selling men’s fragrance. That’s quite an accomplishement.

Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel died on January 10, 1971 at the age of 87. Reports say she was still working at the time of her death. After her death, the company was taken over by Yvonne Dudel, Jean Cazaubon and Philippe Guibourge.

Throughout the years, Chanel has worked with many models and celebrities to advertise its name. When you are a leading name in the fashion industry, you must have a high-profile advertising campaign. The company has employed Catherine Deneuve, Nicole Kidman, Audrey Tautou, Keira Knightley, and Marilyn Monroe. In the 1950’s, Marilyn was pictured splashing herself with Chanel No. 5 and the image has held up as the most famous of all Chanel advertisements.

The fabulous success of Coco Chanel and her company are known the world over. The name implies quality, style and luxury. Now, with expansion into many other products including watches, the Chanel name lives on way beyond Coco herself and continues to bring new and exciting things to the lives of privileged customers the world over.
