Elite jewelry

Today, not only the representatives of the weaker sex, but men also do not represent their life without ornaments, thanks to which their image becomes complete and harmonious. The two most popular groups are jewelry and luxury jewelry.

The word "jewelry" in our country is associated with cheap, carelessly made jewelry. However, the class of luxury jewelry includes products that with the highest level of quality are made of precious or semi-precious materials.

The main advantage of this type of jewelry, of course, is their affordability. Fashion is changing rapidly, and such a frequent purchase of jewelry can cause a serious blow to the budget. And the price of luxury jewelry will allow you to pick up jewelry for the sake of fashion trends.

An interesting story is the popularization of "non-jewelry" (that is how they are officially called). It is believed that the first to introduce them to fashion Chanel. Almost all the photos with the world famous fashionista present artificial pearls. According to another version, jewelry has become a trend thanks to Jacqueline Kennedy. The former first lady of the United States kept the originals of her jewelry in a safe, and she herself preferred to wear them skillfully made copies.

Without a doubt, even the choice of jewelry should be approached consciously: you can rely on the reviews, but you can rely on the opinion of experts. The best luxury jewelry is created in Italy, France and Norway. Russian designers are also not lagging behind world manufacturers of jewelry. But Chinese jewelry is not a high level of quality. In general, one should pay attention to the most famous brands that usually monitor the quality of their products.

Brand jewelry can both make an image incredibly elegant and stylish, and spoil the overall impression of the appearance as a whole. Designer jewelry, great looking on models in glossy magazines, may well not be in harmony with other clothes, figure or even character. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully select the jewelry.

It is considered unacceptable the joint wearing of jewelry and jewelry. However, many stylists advise not to wear all the jewelry from one “set” of jewelry at once: you can restrict yourself to a combination of a ring and earrings or pendant and a bracelet.

Do not forget about the relevance of jewelry. Necklace, so pleasing to the eye on the gala evening, will look absolutely stupid in the office. And even the most elegant earrings should not be worn constantly - "in the feast, and in the world."

Lovers of massive jewelry should choose only one large earrings or one large ring: one accessory will be enough. The original image can be created and a small number of parts. And for those who prefer bright costume jewelry, it is important to pay special attention to the choice of clothes: bright decorations look best when combined with calm, monochrome clothes.

There are also rules for choosing jewelry for different types of appearance. "Winter" type (light-skinned people with dark hair) are advised to choose jewelry pink, black or yellow. "Summer" people with dark skin and light brown hair are suitable blue, gray and light pink tones. Lemon and emerald jewelry should be preferred by people with a “spring” type, who have fair skin and eyes and golden hair. "Autumn" people with red hair and green or brown eyes will decorate their products in bright green, olive and terracotta colors.

And finally, another important rule when choosing jewelry: do not buy jewelry, the appearance of which is suspicious.Careful inspection of the product for the presence of cracks, chips, turbidity will help save not only money but also health.

The highest quality of the materials used for the manufacture, different original Italian jewelry. However, non-Italian products belonging to the category of elite jewelry are usually made in accordance with all standards.

Luxury jewelry, although it is considered a budget option than jewelry, is made of quality materials. To create jewelry, various metals, leather, crystal, rhinestones, and in some cases even fabrics and rare woods are used. Also, the product can be coated with gold.

The most popular material for luxury jewelry today is jewelry steel. Besides the fact that it does not cause allergic reactions, this steel does not tarnish or deform.

There is a kind of luxury jewelry, made "under the gold." Such decorations are created from a medical alloy and covered with a thin layer of gold, 750 samples. Silver-made products are made of a copper-nickel alloy, which is then covered with a layer of silver 925 with nickel silver. Interestingly, even after a long wear, such jewelry does not lose its original appearance.

Growing and popularity of jewelry made from natural materials. In the manufacture of jewelry can be used pearl, rock crystal and quartz. The decorations made of transparent material in which the plants are soldered look especially original.

Each material is tested for hypoallergenicity; however, even the most stringent controls cannot guarantee the absolute lack of response to any alloy. But there is also an allergy to gold.

The key to the success of any image - this is the right choice of jewelry and accessories. A simple dress can be evening with elegant decorations. However, if the incorrectly chosen expensive jewelry can ruin the most sophisticated outfit, then the choice of jewelry, even if it is high-quality and gilded, should be approached even more carefully.

Obviously, some elements do not fit at all: for example, an elegant necklace and a men's shirt with jeans will look absolutely ridiculous together. Therefore, compatibility within a single style is the first and most important rule. But do not think that fans of jeans and clothes in casual style will not find anything among the decorations for themselves: Japanese textile textile, popular among young people, will perfectly fit into this image.

When creating a romantic image you should turn to delicate ornaments in pastel colors, which emphasize femininity and elegance. A vamp woman rather suitable metal products with blackening and bright inserts.

It would seem logical to pick up jewelry in one tone with the clothes, but it would be a mistake. Do not pick up a turquoise necklace to a blue handbag. This following monotony today is considered too boring and banal.

Regardless of the image, it is considered bad taste to wear jewelry with large crystals during the day. The ideal time for them will be the evening.

And, of course, clothing is not the only criterion for choosing jewelry. Should wear that jewelry, which fits the features of appearance. Massive jewelry is suitable for people with a plump figure, and slender ladies will be decorated with both elegant and large items. Oblong decorations lengthen the rounded face, and a square face will help smooth out the round shape of the earrings.

Ever since ancient times, people wore a wide variety of jewelry.Many of them have already lost their popularity or changed shape, but there are decorations that have preserved their appearance and purpose to this day. So, in ancient Egypt, earrings of the most diverse style, unusual beads and bracelets were considered symbols of power. Today, all the same decorations emphasize a sense of style and elegance.

Among the types of jewelry are rings, earrings, bracelets, brooches, pendants and chains.

• The ring is considered to be the most popular jewelry. Previously, this ornament bore not only a decorative function, but also indicated the social status of its owner, with the help of which they were printed. Ivan the Terrible and Napoleon Bonaparte wore massive rings on the index finger of his left hand as a symbol of greatness. And the ancient Romans stressed the male force, putting the ring on the thumb. Today the ring has become a symbol of unity and connection. It is no coincidence that in the registrar couples exchange rings.

• Earrings can emphasize or even visually change facial features, become an important addition to the dress. Different types of earrings are created for different styles today: with and without stones, with pendants, cuffs, hoop earrings.

• The bracelet in translation means "wrist." Previously, he was called "wristband", "brace", "rim". Bracelets are of two types: hard, which include spring, closed and hinged, and soft - braided and chain. With this decoration you can add elegance to your hand, and elegance to the whole image.

• The necklace differs from other neck jewelry in that it has a special central part.. Most often, such products are supplemented with massive or medium stones.

• The pendant, or, as it is also called, pendant, is worn on a chain. The pendant can be either a simple decoration or a talisman. In the second case, this suspension is worn under clothing.

• The most ancient type of jewelry is a brooch. Modern brooches are available in three types: brooch-pin (pin with stones strung on it, small chains and other details), brooch-pin, which can be attached to clothes and beautify her hair, and brooch-needle, which is usually worn on outerwear or headgear.
