How to wear bijoux
It is no secret that the correctly chosen accessories can not only complement the image, but also create the right accent, emphasize the individuality and good taste of their owner. More and more women's hearts are conquering jewelry. Thanks to a huge selection of jewelry, you can choose exactly what fits your style of dress and expresses your inner emotions and beliefs. In this article we will tell you how to choose the right jewelry and what to combine it with.
Selection rules
They say jewelry does not happen much. However, it is necessary to learn to grasp the fine line between stylish and tastelessness. Therefore, there are several general rules that must be followed when selecting jewelry:
- Never wear jewelry set - necklace + earrings + ring + bracelet. Combine them by two names - either earrings + necklace, or necklace + ring, etc. The image can complement and the third decoration - brooch. Do not forget that the decorations should be in harmony with each other, and one of them will be the main one, and the rest - complementary;
- Pick up decorations for the outfit. It seems pretty obvious, but not everyone knows how to do it right. Costume jewelry should complement the outfit, and not contradict him. For example, you should not wear round beads to a dress with a triangular neckline - a V-shaped necklace or a pendant on a chain would look perfect. Based on the fabric, we can say that the denser the fabric of your outfit, the larger should be the jewelry. With light flying dresses, wear something just as light and weightless. Natural jewelry is best suited to natural fabrics (made of wood, stone, leather);
- According to the rules of color, costume jewelry can contrast with the color of clothes, and can complement or repeat it. For example, you decide to wear a white shirt and dark brown or black pants. You can dilute the image with a necklace of chocolate shades or wear brown earrings and a bracelet; or you can choose bright decorations, such as red or green.
It is also possible to go a little further and use the color wheel - by defining the main color of the dress, pick up the jewelry of the closest shade of color or, on the contrary, the opposite (beautiful combinations form yellow with purple, red - with green and orange - with blue). Colors can be combined not only in two, but also in three - such combinations are more interesting. In this case, either neighboring colors (for example, dark red, scarlet, coral) or sharply contrasting (orange, turquoise, beige) are used;
- Advanced women of fashion very much like the combination of the incongruous - for example, several multi-colored bracelets on one hand, worn with a watch. If you also like this bold mixture of styles and textures, please experiment, especially since modern fashion only encourages experimentation; however, it is also important to observe a sense of proportion and to have good taste;
- The last rule for the selection of jewelry - focus on your emotions and feelings. If you saw some kind of decoration and you liked it very much - buy it! You will certainly find with what and how to wear it.
How to choose
Depending on the style of clothing:
- with long dresses they wear the same long beads. However, this does not mean that they cannot be worn with a knee-length dress, for example, the classic “case” looks very nice in combination with a long string of pearls tied in a knot or with a thin chain with a pendant;
- The length of the sleeve plays a big role when choosing jewelry on the wrists.Long sleeves suggest either the absence of any jewelry or a thin, weightless bracelet; to the sleeve ¾ you can pick up a narrow bracelet with stones or a chain bracelet; Well, a short sleeve allows us to decorate our handles with massive bracelets or a set of several thin ones;
- when selecting jewelry for the neck, do not forget about the neckline. If you have a stand-up collar, like a turtleneck, you can wear almost any piece of jewelry; V-neckline suggests the same V-neck decoration. For a rounded neckline, pick up short jewelry such as small vans, and for shirts and blouses with collars - chains of medium length.
Depending on the season:
- Summer inspires us to wear almost all types of jewelry. You can safely experiment with combinations of colors, textures and styles. Ethno-style decorations look great;
- in colder seasons with jewelry you need to be more careful. For example, in winter, a scarf with jewelry, for example, with sewn beads or a pin brooch, will serve as an excellent decoration. Earrings and bracelets need to choose more elegant, smaller.
The choice of colors depending on the type of appearance
When choosing jewelry to your image, be sure to consider such a nuance as your color type. It is known that there are four color types - “Summer”, “Autumn”, “Winter” and “Spring”, each of which is further divided into warm and cold type. So, let's see how you can take into account the peculiarities of your appearance when choosing jewelry:
- A “Summer” girl with light skin and red or ashy hair will look very organically in pink, wine, silver and pale blue jewelry;
- Beautiful "Autumn" - the owner of golden skin and red hair - will be gorgeous in honey-yellow and copper jewelry. She is also very suitable for wooden jewelry or jewelry made from sea products - pearls and seashells;
- A cold “Winter” with its aristocratic pale skin and dark hair will be irresistible in jewelry of inconspicuous translucent shades;
- Well, the cheerful “Spring” - a beauty with honey skin and golden hair can safely choose black, bright yellow and pink jewelry.
