Be Bold and Beautiful!
Want to step out of the ordinary? Then try a piece of statement jewelry! While nothing new, many women avoid wearing bold accessories because they don’t feel comfortable leaving their comfort zone. Here are some ideas and ways to stylishly wear statement jewelry!
The History of Statement Jewelry
For years, people have used clothing and accessories to reflect who they are. A great example: Jackie O's trademark black sunglasses. Beyond keeping the sun out of Jackie's eyes, they symbolized who Jackie was. Think about other icons such as Madonna and Prince, their statement jewelry, make-up, and outfits were part of their identity. The right statement piece will show the world your sense of confidence and self-assurance!
Consider these tips to select statement jewelry that’s right for you:
- Size of Jewelry
Statement jewelry is usually big. Bold earrings, cuff bracelets, and bulky pendants are common themes. And statement jewelry doesn’t have to be overbearing. Statement jewelry should be proportional to the size of the person wearing them. For example, our zinc dipped in silver bracelets are attention-getting but not too heavy or large.
- One at a Time …Don’t go Overboard
When wearing a statement piece of jewelry, choose clothing and other accessories that are complementary. If wearing statement earrings, wear a small or gentle ring. If the necklace is making a statement, choose simple earrings. Small studs may be perfect. Wear one statement piece at a time; too many big, bold pieces of jewelry will look overdone.
- Vintage
Vintage jewelry, in and of itself, makes a statement. Whether a piece of jewelry is antique or just vintage-inspired, it adds sophistication. Consider our new antique Ottoman rings, gemstone pendants, bracelets and earrings. They have a vintage look and make a statement at the same time.
- Wear Gemstones
Colorful gemstone jewelry can make a statement and is perfect for Spring/Summer. Gemstones also have spiritual and physical properties that gives them meaning. Did you know that wearing labradorite, for example, can charge you with a sense of excitement and adventure to seek new possibilities? This labradorite and pearl necklace will give you confidence to make a statement!
