Costume Jewelry Is a Great Gift Idea

We have started the countdown to that magical season, but unfortunately, the question of what to give comes with it.  Costume jewelry is always a good idea.  Jewelry is  not a new or novel thought but it is fun and trendy and almost always guaranteed to get a squeal of delight.  How about a 14 karat gold or sterling silver plated CZ tennis bracelet?  These bracelets look so real and the affordable price is real too!  Check it out.

Spruce up that winter outfit with a little bling over your shoulder.  Bold is in and looks great with everything.  Try some sequins or animal prints; go big or go small.  Maybe a gold satchel or smaller silver bag,  Whatever you choose, wear it with attitude!

What Is A Cubic Zirconia (CZ)?

10.22.07

A cubic zirconia, also known as a CZ,  is a synthetic precious stone which means that it is produced in a laboratory but still maintains the same physical and chemical characteristics as a genuine stone.  Because the synthetic stones are man-made they abundant, which ultimately makes them much less expensive.  Bottom line is that a CZ is durable, doesn’t cost much and has a close visual likeness to a diamond.  So, wear that gorgeous CZ ring with ATTITUDE.  Is it real?  Only you will know.

Cuffs Are HOT

Accessorize that cute outfit with a cuff.  Dressed up or dressed down, cuffs are the latest in fashion and costume jewelry.  Try a designer inspired cuff for a little extra pizzazz or maybe something stylish from a costume jewelry line.  Wear them big or wear them small but remember, you’ve got to cuff up to keep up.

What Is Rhodium Plating?

10.16.07

Many times people will shy away from a piece of costume jewelry or designer inspired jewelry when they find out it is coated with a layer of  rhodium.   Rhodium is actually a shiny, highly reflective, silver metal with a finish like Mercury and is consistently used on white gold to  restore the shine. Sterling silver is actually very soft but the rhodium finish is very strong  and  mimics the brilliant finish of freshly polished silver.  It also protects the piece from natural tarnish.   So, purchasing a piece of jewelry coated with a layer of Rhodium as a finishing touch provides  shine for a longer time plus it prevents scratches and tarnishing.

Stack Those Bracelets

10.03.07

Stacking bracelets of various styles and colors is nothing new.  The women of Rome wore bracelets made of twisted coil with lion head ends paired with knot bracelets.  The Greek women wore bracelets with fleeing dogs combined with cuffs designed in palmetto or berry patterns.  Stacking several bangles of different designs, a cuff with a bangle, or perhaps two cuffs turned opposite ways is a great way to spice up any outfit.  So come one girls - start stacking!

Oh Those Versitile, Affordable Chains!

Don’t have the dollars for jewelry to go with every outfit?  Few of us do and that’s why chains  are such a necessary staple in our jewelry collections.  Wear your chain with a bold slider one day and then with a smaller more dainty slider the next.  Two totally different looks.  Or, if you are really in a time crunch and don’t have time to decide what looks best, wear the chain with the clasp in front.  Another great look!
