Find Your Best Colors

It is important to find jewelry that coordinates with your garments. If you like to wear yellow dresses or blouses, then selecting silver jewelry with red stones is a bad plan. In addition, you will want to have necklaces and earrings that look good next to your hair color and skin tone. Consider your favorite colors of clothing when you are selecting jewelry so that you can wear a bracelet or necklace with several outfits. 

Think of Allergies

If you have skin allergies, then choosing particular types of jewelry is imperative. Many individuals are allergic to stainless steel or nickel, and these are the most common types of metal used in inexpensive costume jewelry. When you develop a rash from certain types of jewelry, you must read product labels carefully to choose hypoallergenic materials. Some jewelry stores carry an assortment of jewelry made from hypoallergenic metals. It is never a good idea to wear jewelry that gives you an ugly and itchy rash. 

Size Appropriately

You already know that rings are made in a variety of sizes, but it is important to understand neck and wrist measurements when you buy necklaces and bracelets. In addition, if you have small ears and delicate facial features, then wearing large and dangling earrings will lead to a bad fashion look. If you buy a necklace that is too small, then you won’t be able to wear it around your neck. Alternatively, when you buy a bracelet that is too large, it will fall off of your wrist and hand. 

Be Budget Wise

You can find inexpensive costume jewelry that is often in a trendy style that you can wear for one season. However, if you want to have the highest quality earrings or bracelets, then you will spend more money by making a purchase at a real jewelry store like Sol's Jewelry & Loan instead of a department store. When you are investing a lot of money in fine metal jewelry, it is important to select classic pieces that you can use for a lifetime. 

When you are having problems choosing the best jewelry for your face and body, contact a personal shopper who can give you advice. A personal shopper will have an assortment of jewelry for you to try on so that you can see how it looks with your garments. Wearing the right type of jewelry can improve your overall appearance, but wearing the wrong variety can make you look frumpy.
