Whether fancy or costume, a bit of bling is never a bad thing. There is nothing that brings a smile to our face like a pretty ring, a jangly necklace, or some sparkly earrings. Always remember to:
Keep it chic. In some instances, loading up on the sparklies is an exciting way to accent. But know when to stop. An armful of bangles, for example, means you should think minimal with your necklaces and earrings.
Tone it down when your clothes have a lot going on. A ruffle-front blouse can look sweet with a thin chain in the mix, but not with a big, ornate number.
You don't have to spend a lot on your baubles. Costume jewellery adds pizzazz. Beware of anything too cheap, and avoid pieces that are just poor imitations of the real deal.
Necklaces
There are so many directions you can go when it comes to necklaces, from subtle to bold and lots of places in between.
