Some Secrets of Sophisticated Taste - Jewelry and Watches
Author: nasta
Accessories represent that powerful "secret device" of any lady able to transform her entire appearance in the most magical way. However, if you do not have enough experience in purchasing appropriate accessories, it is quite easy to make a mistake and ruin all your charm.
There are some special rules to consider before you stop your choice at acquiring a particular accessory.
Point 1: It is better to avoid wearing jewelry pieces in the shape of heart, zodiac sign or trident, if you are dressed in a rather formal style and are going to attend some business meeting - otherwise you will not produce a serious impression.
A heart-shaped jewelry piece will be suitable at some St. Valentine's party or a romantic date, while a zodiac sign will be great if you are going to spend your time with other young people.
Point 2: Keep in mind a very important principle: if you have chosen massive jewelry pieces with big stones, your hair-do and make-up should be rather simple. If you follow this easy rule, accessories will magically transform your image.
Point 3: Choose jewelry pieces in conformity with the situation and general atmosphere. If you have been invited to the picnic and put on the most expensive jewelry pieces, or you have gone to some solemn reception wearing wooden beads, it is equally inappropriate. During the day it is better to put on jewelry with unglossy and inexpensive stones. Among the best day-light jewelry pieces there are the following:
- beads of subdued shades and semi-precious (amber, amethyst, onyx, tiger-eye, garnet) or ornamental stones (coral, quartz, agate); - pearls, including the one of different shades - grey, blue, beige; - pins and brooches from filigree, enamel, with semi-precious stones ( amethyst, garnet, topaz).
Point 4: Diamonds should be mentioned in particular. Diamonds are more suitable for wearing in the evening and are preferable for women in their 30-s. Remember that a lady's taste should not depend on her material wealth. Your jewelry should be elegant and should harmoniously match your appearance, clothes and the surroundings. In the past centuries pearls and garnets were considered to be suitable strictly for young and unmarried ladies (regardless of their age), while wearing diamonds was not allowed for them.
Point 5: Avoid wearing two jewelry pieces placed closely to each other. The following pairs are more preferable - ear-rings and a bracelet, a necklace and a ring, a brooch and a ring. Professional image-makers believe that the successfully chosen pieces of jewelry are able to underline the strong points of one's appearance, without drawing the attention away for your personality.
It is better to avoid wearing pieces of jewelry that are too shiny, gleamy, or producing a lot of noise, not to divert your companions' attention from your face and speech. It is a mistake to hide one's personality beyond huge, vulgar jewelry pieces that will suggest bad taste and the lack of sense of proportion.
Point 6: It is not always a good alternative to wear a set of jewelry. This idea will most probably seem strange to you, as jewelry pieces are quite often sold in a set. However, jewelry producers and sellers are more interested in their profits than in their customers' image and creative approach to one's appearance. When we put on a set of jewelry pieces featuring the same design, they quite often loose their expressiveness and exclusiveness.
Point 7: A brooch draws attention to one's face and upper part of the body. If a lady would not like to show everybody that she has broad shoulders, it is better to wear a brooch closer to the center of her breast. If a lady has a prolonged face and pointed chin, it is advisable to wear a round brooch.
Point 8: A watch of a lady should also match the chosen pieces of jewelry. It is great if a lady has a few timepieces to match different styles of her clothes and jewelry. In general, the choice of a watch should be suggested by the same principles - it should match your overall appearance and the situation. If, for example, you have a very narrow wrist, an over-sized watch, even a very stylish one, is not exactly the one you need.
Some ladies form their own collection of watches to match different occasions and styles. It is not so expensive if you stop your choice at elegant top quality replica watches. Present day replica watches available at on-line shops feature the most prestigious names in the world of watch-making and fashion.
Qualitative replica watches are almost indistinguishable from authentic timepieces and provide everyone with a great opportunity to have no difficulty in choosing a watch whether going to a business meeting or a tennis court.
