Pro Tip Quality is paramount. Pay attention to materials, fittings, and design. Costume jewelry is a great way to express yourself and your taste. It’s not difficult to purchase an expensive piece of jewelry if you have the means, but it’s stylish costume jewelry that sets its owner apart from classic accessories. Rule 1: Don’t Disguise Costume Jewelry as Fine Jewelry Don’t try to pass off costume jewelry as something it’s not. Avoid imitations of precious stones and gold. For costume jewelry to look expensive, it must look like costume jewelry. However, it can and should be combined with fine jewelry. For example, gold earrings can be worn with metal bracelets in a matching color scheme. Or, conversely, bright and bold earrings can be paired with gold watches. Rule 2: Properly Place Accents Try to emphasize one large piece of jewelry, such as a necklace or a set of bracelets. Two large accents are acceptable if they are not next to each other. Large earrings and a necklace, complemented by a choker, can look overly cluttered, while earrings paired with bracelets will look sleek and stylish. Costume jewelry can be made from different materials, as long as a cohesive color composition is maintained. Rule 3: Choose Earrings According to Face Shape Earrings always attract attention as they are at face level, and they often set the mood of the look. Earrings can highlight the oval of the face, but you need to be careful: poorly chosen accessories can weigh down features, while the right ones can emphasize strengths. * If you have wide cheekbones and a strong jawline, elongated earrings will suit you. * If your face is long and narrow, choose short and chunky pieces that will visually widen your cheekbones. Rule 4: Combine Rings Rings are the only type of jewelry that allows you to mix all styles, materials, and colors, which will look great in any combination. You can wear them on all fingers - it’s trendy and eye-catching. * A great accent is rings with pearls, which always look expensive and highlight individuality. * A good trick is to wear several identical rings on different fingers or on one hand on different phalanges (alternate wide with narrow, with stones and without, bright and more modest). Rule 5: Chokers are the Key to Style An eye-catching choker is always appropriate. Don’t be afraid to wear it with jeans, business suits, dresses, and even sportswear. The options for chokers are limitless: metal, pearls - this is the most fail-safe option that goes with almost any outfit. A satin or velvet ribbon with a pendant is bold and fashionable. Don’t forget: wear the choker directly on your bare neck, not over clothing.
