How to Choose the Right Necklace Length for You

Keyword(s): necklace length

A gorgeous necklace can transform any outfit. Whether you choose a simple strand of pearls or a show-stopping diamond pendant, it can elevate your ensemble in minutes. 

While you may have lots of different necklaces in your jewelry collection, have you ever stopped to consider the necklace length that will look best on you? There are a few different factors that can determine the answer, and it helps to know all of your options before you decide.

From trendy, 14-inch chokers to traditional 18-inch pendants and long statement necklaces that span 30 inches and beyond, there are certainly many styles to choose from. Today, we're sharing a quick guide to help you measure correctly and buy a necklace in confidence!

Understanding Necklace Length Options

For the most part, necklaces range from 14 inches to 36 inches in length. While there are some styles that will be smaller and others that will drop longer, this is the typical range that most will fall into.

As you shop for one, your personal style should be top of mind. Think about the length that you'd feel most comfortable wearing, and allow that to start your buying journey.

For instance, you may prefer a choker that doesn't interfere with your outfit or a dainty pendant that sits near your collarbone. Or, you may decide to dress up a basic top with an ultra-long chain that drops to your midsection. There isn't a right or wrong choice, but it does help to plan ahead. 

You may even decide to invest in a collection of necklaces in different lengths, and then wear them all at once for a stylish, on-trend stacked look! Let's take a look at the standard sizes that you'll see when you begin to browse.

Standard Length Categories

For both men and women, most necklaces will fall into one of the following standard length categories: 

• 14-inch
• 16-inch
• 18-inch
• 20-inch
• 22-inch
• 24-inch
• 30-inch
• 36-inch

Keep in mind that your body type will determine exactly where the necklace falls on you. For example, a 22-inch pendant might rest just below the collarbone on one wearer, but fall closer to the sternum on another. Let's review each length in greater detail. 

14-Inch Necklaces

A 14-inch necklace is usually defined as a choker. This is the smallest standard necklace size available and is designed to fit snugly around the wearer's neck. You can wear one on your own to make a bold style statement or pair it with a longer chain to make elegant layers. 

Our Small Swarovski Crystal Single Ball Choker is a great example. Featuring gorgeous Swarovski crystals arranged in a pave style on a small bead, it's a beautiful way to stand out. 

16-Inch Necklaces

A little longer than 14-inch chokers, 16-inch necklaces are designed to fall just above your collarbone. This is the shortest necklace you can choose without selecting a choker. These also pair well with other, longer necklaces.

Take a look at our Bella Sparkling Silver Necklace, for instance. This 16-inch stunner features genuine Italian design and craftsmanship with diamond-cut facets and an enhanced clasp. If you want to make it a little longer, there's also a versatile length extender that can add two inches to the length!

18-Inch Necklaces

If you're looking for an everyday necklace that will go with nearly every outfit in your closet, then you can't go wrong with an 18-inch option. This is the length that's considered average for most necklaces, in any style. 

These necklaces will fit right below your clavicle and may include a pendant so you can dress them up or down. For a simple yet dazzling option, we love our Alessia Paperclip Toggle Necklace. Available in both gold and silver, you can wear it with the unique toggle clasp in the front, or move it to the back for a more polished look. 

20-Inch Necklaces

For most women's styles, a 20-inch necklace is considered slightly longer than usual. However, this is the shortest length offered for most men's chains. 

This necklace style will fall a few inches below the collarbone. Some shorter, choker-style necklaces may include adjustable toggle options to extend the chain to 20 inches. Our 20-Inch Italian Sterling Silver Milano Twist Adjustable Chain is a beautiful example. 

22-Inch Necklaces

Do you love necklaces that fall between your clavicle and sternum? This is a great, versatile length that looks especially vibrant over blouses or sweaters with a higher neckline. Most 22-inch necklaces feature a central pendant to create a center point and visual interest. 

Our Italian Sterling Silver Diamond Cut Link Adjustable Chain allows you to take your necklace from 14 inches to 22 inches with just one simple move. Featuring a simple yet sophisticated fluted design, you can wear it alone or with an added pendant. 

24-Inch Necklaces

A 24-inch necklace will fall right at the top of your ribcage. This is typically the longest that a single-strand necklace will go. From here, styles will usually begin doubling or even tripling over. Pair these with shorter options to create a stack, or pick an eye-catching style that can hold its own. 

Adjustable from 14 inches to 24 inches, our Italian Light Grano Wheat Adjustable Chain is a great pick!

30-Inch and 36-Inch Necklaces

While you can certainly rock a 30-inch chain as a single strand, it will nearly reach the stomach of most wearers. If you prefer a slightly shorter look, you can double it up and make both strands shorter. Or, you can choose to keep one strand long and make the other more choker-length. 

Looking for a versatile 30-inch style you can loop into a new look whenever you want? Our 30-inch Italian Sterling Silver Adjustable Popcorn Bombe Chain is a great place to start!

If you want to go even longer, you can also invest in a 36-inch necklace. The longest style that most jewelry makers will offer, these normally fall beyond the belly button of most people. The longest style we offer is our Sterling Silver Snake Chain, which is available in 30-inch and 36-inch options. 

Measuring Your Necklace

When you purchase a new necklace, the retailer should be able to tell you exactly how long it is. However, you may have a few in your current collection that you're unsure about. 

If that's the case, there are a few different ways to measure the length. These include:

• Using a string on a flat surface
• Using a tape measure on a flat surface
• Using a flexible tape measure around your neck  

If you have a necklace in a length you love, measure it! Then, use those dimensions to help you narrow your options as you purchase a necklace to complement it. 

How to Choose the Right Necklace Length

As mentioned, when you're ready to buy a necklace, there isn't a right or wrong length to choose! The style that will look best on you is the one you love, and that makes you feel the most confident. 

That said, if you're not sure which style to choose for your new necklace, there are a few factors that can help you decide. Let's take a look.

Neck Size

You might not think too much about the size of your neck on a regular basis, but it can affect how different necklaces look on you. If your neck is narrow, then even the shortest length, such as a choker, might fall beyond your collarbone. If your neck is thicker, then it will make the necklace look shorter. 

Think about where you want the necklace to fall, and choose your length accordingly. If you know your neck is thin and narrow, then we suggest sizing down, and vice versa if it's a little wider.

Not sure how to measure your neck size? Here's a quick guide to help you get started!

Height

Your height can also influence where a necklace falls on your body. If you're average height, then you can go by the descriptions listed above. However, people who are taller than average may prefer a longer necklace, as a short one may fall too high on them. 

On the other hand, individuals with shorter statures may prefer shorter chains to complement their petite frame. 

Your Clothes

When you have a few different necklace lengths to choose from, then you can make sure you always have the right accessory to pull your look together! As you're adding your jewelry, pay attention to the style of shirt you're wearing. 

If it has a plunging neckline, then you may want a mid-length pendant that can fall to the middle and fill in the space. At the same time, longer styles also look gorgeous when layered on top of a high-necked sweater or T-shirt. You can also stack multiple styles together to create a fuller look. 

The most common combination for stacking is a 16-inch, 18-inch, and 20-inch necklace, all worn at the same time.

Preventing and Removing Tarnish: How to Clean a Chain Necklace

Be honest: when was the last time you cleaned your jewelry? It's easy to forget to scrub our favorite pieces, but research suggests this may come back to bite us. One study even found that a ring, watch, and earring worn for seven days picked up 428 times more germs than a toilet seat!

Constant exposure to lotions, moisture, sweat, and other factors can be harsh on the metal finish of your favorite necklace.

That's why knowing how to clean a chain necklace is so crucial. Not only can this keep germs at bay, but it can also help maintain the beauty of your pieces. Even better, it may extend the lifespan of your treasured jewelry.

If you're a little behind on your regular cleanings and you don't know where to start, we've got you covered. Here's what you should know about basic chain jewelry care.

How to Clean a Chain Necklace by Metal Type

Different metals often need different care. It's always a smart idea to grab a specialized cleaning solution for whatever type of metal jewelry you own.

However, if you don't have the right jewelry cleaner, there are still plenty of solutions to try on your own at home. Depending on the type of metal in your chain, you should clean it using the following tactics:

Gold Chains

Gold necklaces are easy to clean with detergent and water. Grab a mild, non-abrasive detergent or dish soap and add it to some warm water. Soak your chain in the solution for a few minutes, then pull it out for cleaning.

You should use a jewelry cleaning cloth for this, but you can also grab a microfiber cloth instead. Rub the chain with gentle strokes, then rinse the soap away with clean water and pat the necklace dry.

Silver and Sterling Silver Chains

Silver and sterling silver sometimes need a bit of extra attention to prevent tarnishing. You can use the water and detergent method above a start, but silver is also durable enough for further cleaning tactics.

You can create a baking soda solution by adding a bit of warm water until the baking soda forms a paste. Grab an extra soft toothbrush for cleaning, then rinse the necklace and pat it dry.

Gold- or Silver-Plated Chains

Plated jewelry needs a delicate touch. Keep in mind that the plating on this jewelry is often thin, so abrasive solutions and harsh scrubbing can wear it away.

Instead, try soaking this jewelry in a detergent and water or vinegar and water solution without scrubbing. Use your jewelry cleaning cloth to wipe it down and remove any grime.

This strategy is also great for "fake" jewelry chains, or chains designed to look as if they're made of metal or gold. The finish on these pieces often requires gentle cleansing to keep it from wearing away.

Copper and Brass Chains

Both of these metals can take a bit more abrasion than the ones above if needed. 

Start with a gentle detergent and water solution. If that doesn't work, mix a paste using salt and vinegar for extra cleaning power.

Additional Cleaning Tactics

If you're struggling to clean your jewelry, there are a few additional strategies that may help you deal with specific problems.

Hair Removal

If you have long hair, you might struggle to get tangles of hair out of your chain necklace. This can be especially tricky if the chain is small or dainty, as it can be hard to pull the hair out without breaking or damaging the chain.

One easy way to avoid this is by using hair removal cream. Dabbing a bit of this cream onto the knot of hair in your chain for a few minutes can cause the hair to break down, making it easier to work out with your fingers or a soft cloth. Be sure to rinse the necklace afterward to remove any remaining cream.

Cuticle scissors are also a great way to get rid of knots caught in your chain. You'll need to have patience to cut the hair away with these small scissors, but it's a safe way to get the hair out without harming the necklace.

Removing Tarnishing

Silver jewelry is prone to darkening over time. Fortunately, you can revive tarnishing with the right cleaning solutions.

Soaking your jewelry in vinegar and water can sometimes help. If not, line a pan or bowl with aluminum foil, and combine equal parts salt and baking soda within it.

Place your silver chain into this solution. Next, heat a cup of water and pour it in, letting the solution bubble. The chemical reaction can help remove dirt and tarnish.

You can also consider using a specialized, ammonia-free cleaning solution like SilverMate to revive silver that has been sitting around for a while.

Chain Cleaning Mistakes to Avoid

There's plenty of advice online about cleaning your jewelry, but not all of it is trustworthy! Even if you're dealing with deep-set grime and tarnishing, you'll want to avoid a few harmful cleaning tactics:

Not Knowing the Metal

As we've already mentioned, different metals need different cleaning solutions. Gold, for example, isn't durable enough to withstand some of the abrasive cleaning tactics you can try on sterling silver.

Treating all of your chain necklaces the same is a recipe for disaster and heartbreak! If you aren't careful, you may scrub away your chain's finishing or damage it beyond repair.

Using a Toothbrush

Certain types of jewelry, like sterling silver, can take a very gentle scrubbing. However, many online articles will recommend a toothbrush for any type of chain.

Don't fall for this advice. Toothbrushes are far too abrasive for cleaning most chains, especially small or delicate ones.

Boiling Your Chain

All metals can take a bit of heat, but not for extended periods. Boiling your jewelry might seem like a good idea in theory, but you won't want to expose them to hot water for long. Even worse, letting your jewelry stay in contact with the hot metal bottom of a pot can cause warping and damage.

Soaking It in Bleach

Bleach may be great for household cleaning, but it's far too harsh for your jewelry. Advocates for bleaching jewelry claim that it helps break down tarnishing or grime, which is true. However, bleach may also break down the surface of your favorite jewelry chain!

How Often to Clean Your Chain Necklace

Regular cleaning can keep your chain necklace in great condition. It can also help you avoid tarnishing and a buildup of dirt or grime. However, how do you know how often to clean your favorite pieces?

The answer depends on how often you wear them.

If you wear your chain necklace each day, a weekly or bi-weekly cleaning is a good idea. This can help you rinse away any buildup of grime or your skin's natural oils.

You should also do a bi-annual cleaning of all of your chain necklaces, including pieces you only wear every once in a while. These pieces tend to be cleaner than your daily jewelry and don't need frequent scrubbing.

How to Keep Your Chain Necklace Clean

Once you've cleaned your jewelry and you're enjoying your new, shining necklace, you might wonder how to keep the item clean. What steps can you take to avoid a buildup of grime or discoloration?

Reconsider Your Daily Habits

Showering in your jewelry may not seem like a big deal, but it means your chain necklace gets repeated exposure to moisture, soaps, shampoos, and abrasive washcloths or sponges. This can be harsh on the metal finish, so try to take off your necklace before you shower each day.

If you often apply lotion, oil, or sunscreen on your neck, be careful around your chain necklace. Buildups of these substances can wear down the metal over time. When possible, apply these substances first and give them a chance to absorb into your skin before you put your chain necklace on.

Store Your Chain Necklace Properly

Your choice for jewelry storage matters. Don't just throw your favorite statement necklaces onto the nearest shelf!

Instead, look for a place out of direct sunlight, and make sure the area is at room temperature. Low humidity is also ideal to help avoid tarnishing.

Consider getting a jewelry box with felt dividers and drawers. These storage options not only help you organize your chains, but they can also protect them from light, dust, and debris.

Invest in Your Jewelry Care

If your favorite jewelry pieces hold a special place in your heart, knowing how to clean a chain necklace is crucial. Regular but gentle cleaning can help extend the lifespan of your necklaces while maintaining their beautiful finishes. Make sure to commit to a regular cleaning schedule to see the best results!

The Ultimate Guide to Styling a Paperclip Necklace

Keyword(s): paperclip necklace 

An iconic jewelry trend that has graced the necks of celebrities and influencers alike, the paperclip necklace, has been stealing the spotlight on fashion runways and red carpets around the world. Bridging the gap between minimalism and statement-making, this unique piece is capturing hearts for its versatility and timeless appeal.

But the question stands - how do you elevate your look with this trend? What's the secret to nailing the paperclip necklace trend? From styling tips for various occasions to pairing options with other jewelry pieces, this guide will unravel the art of wearing this unique jewelry trend.

Read on to learn how to make a bold style statement with a paperclip necklace, and let your jewelry speak volumes about your refined taste.

A Blend of History and Modernity

In the diverse world of necklaces, the paperclip chain necklace has carved its niche. This style marries an everyday object's simplicity with an aesthetic appeal. This results in a jewelry trend that's capturing hearts across the globe.

The paperclip necklace isn't new to the fashion world. Its roots trace back to World War II when it served as a symbol of unity and resistance. Today, it's a testament to how a piece with historical significance can be reinvented to resonate with modern fashion sensibilities.

Paperclip necklaces today are all about bringing the past into the present. They capture the charm of an era gone by in a design that appeals to contemporary tastes.

Their design is simple, their presence, unmistakable. Whether you're in a professional setting or heading out for a casual brunch, a paperclip necklace can adapt to fit your style.

Choosing Your Paperclip Necklace

When it comes to selecting the perfect paperclip necklace, quality and style should take center stage. Not all necklace options are created equal. The difference often lies in the materials used and the craftsmanship.

The first step towards owning a gorgeous paperclip necklace is understanding what to look for in terms of quality.

Primarily, a paperclip necklace can be made from various materials like gold, silver, or platinum. The choice of material will significantly impact the look and feel of the piece.

Gold offers a classic, timeless appeal, while silver adds a modern, trendy vibe. Platinum, on the other hand, combines durability with a subtle elegance.

Craftsmanship is another crucial aspect that can't be overlooked. Skilled artisans bring designs to life, ensuring every detail is perfect. A well-crafted paperclip necklace should have smooth edges, a secure clasp, and a polished finish that shines in the light.

Quality, as we've mentioned, is a vital aspect of affordable luxury. While the cost may be a factor, remember that an investment in a quality piece now will pay dividends in the future. A high-quality paperclip necklace will not only look better but also last longer, making it a wise choice for any discerning jewelry lover.

Styling Your Paperclip Necklace

Mastering the art of wearing necklaces isn't a daunting task, particularly when it comes to the versatile paperclip necklace. Its universal appeal makes it a suitable choice for diverse settings, whether professional or casual, day or night.

For professional settings, subtlety is key. Choose a shorter paperclip necklace that sits at or slightly below the collarbone.

This style is elegant and non-distracting, perfect for maintaining a professional image. Pair it with a blouse or a dress shirt, allowing the necklace to subtly peek out for a touch of sophistication.

When it comes to casual outings, you have the freedom to be a bit more daring. Consider a longer paperclip necklace or one with larger links for a statement look. Pair it with a simple t-shirt or a strappy top for a stylish, laid-back vibe.

For formal events, the paperclip necklace can be your secret weapon. Opt for a gold or silver necklace adorned with diamonds or gemstones. This adds a dash of glamour and luxury, making you stand out.

Pair it with a little black dress or an elegant evening gown, and you're ready to steal the show.

One of the fascinating aspects of paperclip necklaces is their ability to adapt to the latest jewelry trends. While their design remains constant, how you style them can reflect current fashion cues, making them a timeless piece in your collection.

The Art of Pairing Your Paperclip Necklace

If you're thinking of adding a paperclip necklace to your jewelry box, you might also be wondering how to pair it with other pieces. The good news is that the versatility of the paperclip necklace makes it perfect for combining with various other jewelry items. The key to successful pairing lies in balancing the statement-making paperclip necklace with other complementary pieces.

When it comes to earrings, consider something understated if your necklace is large or heavily detailed. Small studs or delicate hoops can provide a nice contrast to the bold chain links of the paperclip necklace.

Matching your paperclip necklace with a bracelet? Try a bracelet that mimics the paperclip chain design for a cohesive look, or a delicate bangle to add contrast and maintain balance.

If you're keen on pairing your necklace with rings, remember that it's all about harmony. A chunky, bold ring can compete for attention with your necklace, so it's often better to choose more understated rings. Consider delicate bands or those with small stones that add sparkle without overshadowing your necklace.

Mixing metals is also an option for the adventurous. A gold paperclip necklace can be paired with silver earrings or a rose gold ring to create a trendy, eclectic look.

Layering Your Paperclip Necklace

In addition to its standalone charm, a paperclip necklace lends itself remarkably well to the trend of layered jewelry. This practice allows you to express your personal style, creating a combination that's unique to you.

Begin with your paperclip necklace as the base. Consider the length, material, and design of your necklace before adding more layers. This ensures your pieces work harmoniously rather than compete for attention.

Next, select a few other necklaces of varying lengths. This could include a choker, a mid-length pendant necklace, and perhaps another longer chain. Mixing different types of necklaces can add depth and interest to your look.

When choosing your necklaces, consider the visual balance. If your paperclip necklace has larger links, you might want to pair it with chains that are more delicate to create a balanced look. Similarly, if your paperclip necklace is sleek and simple, feel free to experiment with more intricate or statement pieces for your other layers.

Don't shy away from mixing metals either. A silver paperclip necklace can look stunning paired with gold or rose gold chains. The contrast can add a contemporary and edgy appeal to your ensemble.

Lastly, remember to wear your layered necklaces with confidence. Your choice of jewelry is an expression of your personal style. By layering your paperclip necklace with other pieces, you're creating a look that's uniquely yours. In the end, that's what makes any piece of jewelry truly shine.

Caring for Your Paperclip Necklace

Once you've discovered the allure of the paperclip necklace, it's vital to understand how to maintain its brilliance. Jewelry, especially pieces that you cherish, requires a level of care to ensure they remain in pristine condition.

Cleaning is the first step to keep your paperclip necklace sparkling. A regular wipe down with a soft cloth can help remove any dirt or oils that may have settled on your necklace.

For a deeper clean, a jewelry cleaner suitable for your necklace's material would work best. Just remember to rinse thoroughly and dry well to avoid leaving any residue.

Proper storage is another aspect of jewelry care. Keep your necklace in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. A jewelry box lined with fabric is ideal as it provides separate compartments to prevent your necklace from tangling with other pieces.

Even with high-quality jewelry, it's essential to handle your pieces with care. Refrain from wearing your necklace during physical activities to prevent any potential damage.

Affordable luxury isn't just about owning a quality piece; it's also about preserving that quality. By caring for your paperclip necklace, you can ensure that it continues to add a touch of elegance to your style for years to come. After all, a well-cared-for piece of jewelry is like a cherished memory, retaining its beauty and charm forever.

Benefits of Investing in wehoautodetail Necklaces

Jewelry can be more than just an accessory - it can also be a great way to invest. The best jewelry for this is called "fine jewelry". To make sure that you get the right value, you need to learn how to identify fine jewelry and understand what makes it valuable.

Fine jewelry for women is made from expensive metals like gold, sterling silver, and platinum. It also features real gems like diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. This type of jewelry is very valuable and keeps its vibrance for years to come. All women should invest in a few timeless pieces!

It’s Durable and Long-Lasting

Fine jewelry is crafted from the highest quality gems and metals, making it a reliable investment that can last for generations.

It won't corrode or tarnish like lesser materials, nor will it break down easily. So you have an extraordinary piece of jewelry that stands unaltered over time. A high-quality gold necklace design will last the test of time, and can even be transferred to your descendants as a treasured heirloom!

The resale value of fine jewels never decreases either; no matter how much time has passed since their purchase, they still retain their worth throughout the ages.

It’s Customizable

For the fashion-forward individual, fine jewelry is a must-have. Investing in these timeless pieces allows you to shape and form them according to the current trends in necklace designs. This will provide you with years of wearable style.

Fine jewelry will withstand the test of time - all it takes for your collection to remain up-to-date is occasional customization!

Build a Timeless Collection

You can create a fashionable collection by looking for pieces that you like and that go together. When you find items that work with each other, buy them so your collection will look great.

Investing in the highest quality jewelry items, such as those made from 18-carat gold, is a smart decision that will pay off for years to come. Not only can these pieces be used to dress up or relax an outfit but they also make for fantastic heirloom investments. With stylish and durable jewelry like this, building a beautiful collection is easy.

In addition to this, collecting things is fun! Some popular collections include Swiss-made watches or jewelry made by renowned designers (such as Louis Vuitton's Dentelle de Monogram line).

There's nothing quite like seeing another collector flaunting an especially desirable piece and feeling the impulse to share their enthusiasm. Collecting heirloom jewelry items is just as exhilarating as birdwatching or noticing extraordinary vintage cars!

It’s an Investment You Get To Wear

Not only should you wear it, but jewelry is meant to bring joy while also increasing in value! Who doesn't love wearing a stunning statement necklace or an exclusive timepiece? Investing in these pieces is not only fashionable - they're financially beneficial too.

Unlike other assets, like a home, or stocks, jewelry is an investment that should bring pleasure as well as retain or grow in value. Even with precious, rare pieces, they ought to be worn and enjoyed - just remember to take them for a deep clean and inspection at the jeweler afterward!

They Are Versatile

When it comes to fine jewelry, the possibilities are endless. Not just necklaces and earrings - you can have access to anklets, bracelets, and rings. You're only limited by your imagination.

Fine jewelry is a step away from fashion jewelry as you can get beautifully crafted pieces that match your size and taste.

Financial Benefits

It may not seem like it at first, but buying jewelry that is more expensive and of higher quality can actually be helpful in the future. High-quality pieces hold their value.

Even if you don't want to sell your favorite rings and necklaces, having nice jewelry could help you get money if you ever need it later. You can either sell it to a shopper or a jewelry store. This could be a great way to get extra cash when you need it.

Furthermore, the materials used to make jewelry can be worth a lot of money. Owners sometimes invest in these materials because they can keep their value. Even if the jewelry is not popular anymore, you can still use the materials for other things.

Investing in precious metals and gemstones is a good way to protect your money when the market goes up and down. Buy jewelry made of these materials that you know will always be worth something.

They Can Mark a Big Occasion

We don't typically purchase diamond-studded watches or rings adorned with precious stones on a whim, yet we certainly support it! However, you can honor the good memories of your life with quality jewelry.

Investing in jewelry to commemorate life's milestones and accomplishments such as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, retirements, and graduations serve as an excellent symbol that celebrates extra special occasions.

They Are the Perfect Gift for Yourself

If you can spare time and think for those around you, why not do the same for yourself? After all, your accomplishments should be celebrated too.

As a way to commemorate these moments of success, surprising yourself with jewelry makes perfect sense. Not only will it provide long-term value, but also allow you to enjoy an exquisite keepsake in the present moment!

What Materials to Choose?

If you're seeking long-lasting pieces, the purity of metal (24k gold or 950 silver) might not be your top priority; however, if it is, then the higher-grade metals are more precious and valuable.

Silver is naturally highly malleable and ductile, yet the higher its purity levels (950 or 999) are, the softer it becomes! Beware of retailers who claim their products to be 950+ because such a high percentage does not equate with increased durability. For truly impeccably-crafted silver jewelry pieces, opt for 925 parts silver combined with another alloy.

Silver, when alloyed with various elements and metals, becomes the perfect balance of durability and workability for jewelry.

Likewise, 24k gold is exceptionally malleable which may make it too soft to use in crafts or jewelry that require a higher resistance to scratches or dents; however, it offers an unbeatable value based on its purity.

The Pros and Cons of Plated Jewelry

Plated jewelry is an enormous business driven by the world's largest jeweler, Pandora. This process involves coating a piece of jewelry with gold (yellow, white, or rose).

Typically 10k, 12k, 14k, or 18K and it has been made iconic through materials like sterling silver .925 that Pandora uses in their signature pink pieces.

But be aware. Plated jewelry is cheaper than solid metal jewelry. It also looks like it is made of precious metal, but it costs less so won't always hold its value.

Although gold-plated jewelry may appear to be a wise investment, it is important to note that the color can fade over time. The best bet to preserve your piece for longevity is to invest in sterling silver .925 - this way you can easily restore its original luster with a fresh coat of gold!

Whenever you're shopping for jewelry, always be wary of marketing campaigns that advertise items with ambiguous descriptions such as "14K". This level of vagueness is often used to deceive shoppers.

If the price seems too good to be true, it's likely because a piece of jewelry is plated or being resold. Be sure to ask questions and read reviews before making any purchases!

5 Benefits of Sterling Silver Jewelry You Should Know About

The earliest piece of jewelry dates back between 142,000 and 150,000 years ago. 33 beads made from snail shells were found in a cave in Morocco proving that jewelry has always been an integral part of society.

Having the right jewelry can accentuate your outfits. Whether you're going out for a night on the town or just adding to your everyday styles, you want to look and feel your best. But sometimes, finding the right piece of jewelry that's both functional and affordable can be a challenge if you don't know what to look for.

That's where Sterling Silver jewelry comes in. This beautiful metal can offer you the versatility you need for enhancing your jewelry collection. If you want to know more, keep reading below for 5 wonderful benefits you need to know.

1. Sterling Silver Jewelry is Long-Lasting

On average, Sterling Silver jewelry can last between 20-30 years. But with the proper care, you can actually rely on your Sterling Silver pieces can last a lifetime and even become heirlooms you pass down to the next generation of wearers.

Always store your Sterling Silver jewelry items properly. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from sources of moisture which can cause it to tarnish. Polish it with a soft, dry jeweler's cloth and silver polish regularly.

You can also make your own Sterling Silver cleaner with a solution of baking soda and white distilled vinegar. Watered-down toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush will also help to keep your Sterling Silver looking good. Mild dish soap is also an option to remove tarnish safely.

Avoid spraying perfumes and deodorants directly onto the surface of the Sterling Silver jewelry. All of these tips will allow you to get the most wear out of your Sterling Silver and extend its longevity.

2. Sterling Silver is an Alloy

Pure silver on its own is too soft, so it isn't strong enough to make durable jewelry from. But Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver with 7.5% other metal alloys mixed in to make it stronger and more durable. It relies on this 7.5% alloy content to give it its strength and shape.

You're still getting beautifully crafted silver pieces with the added benefit of alloys for strength. This means that your Sterling Silver pieces won't dent or scratch like pure silver can. Your jewelry pieces will be strong and beautiful meaning you can wear them as an accent for your everyday wardrobe without worrying about damage.

Sterling silver jewelry provides the same strength and silver sheen for jewelry pieces compared to platinum and white gold, but for a fraction of the price. You are receiving the most silver for your money while also obtaining the functionality of attractive jewelry.

3. Sterling Silver is More Affordable

Gold and platinum jewelry are highly sought after, but the high cost can make it difficult to accumulate multiple pieces to expand your jewelry accessories collection. Sterling Silver is also an easier type of metal to produce because silver is a more abundant metal source than gold. This leads to Sterling Silver having a low cost associated with its production.

Since Sterling Silver is a more cost-effective way to buy jewelry, you will be able to buy more jewelry for the same price as one gold or platinum piece. You can afford to have a wider repertoire of Sterling Silver pieces in your jewelry wardrobe. You can find everything from Sterling Silver necklaces to bracelets, earrings, and rings.

This makes it a much more fun and easy process for finding the right piece to complement your outfits. Your jewelry will look and feel high quality without worrying about needing a high budget. You'll also be able to build up your personal brand.

4. Sterling Silver Can Be Gold Plated

Silver is one of the most conductive types of metal. It has even more conductivity than copper. Because Sterling Silver is 92.5% pure silver with only 7.5% consisting of alloys, this makes Sterling Silver ideal to use for gold plating.

The process of gold plating, also known as electroplating, involves running an electrical current through a solution of liquefied gold. The positive ions in the gold solution are drawn to another piece of metal like Sterling Silver. These gold ions adhere to the surface of the Sterling Silver metal.

What you get in return is a gorgeous piece of jewelry that has all of the best qualities of gold and silver in one. You'll have the durability of Sterling Silver with the added luster of gold. This gives you more options for finding the right piece of jewelry to add to your collection.

Gold-plated jewelry pieces over Sterling Silver metal are also a more affordable jewelry option for those who want the look and feel of real gold without the hefty price tag attached.

5. Sterling Silver is Versatile

Sterling Silver lets you play around with your looks effortlessly. You can find the styles that make your outfits pop. Sterling Silver also allows you to express your personal style brand with the designs, styles, and accent stones that appeal most to you.

You can wear multiple Sterling Silver chains together for an elegantly layered look. Sterling Silver also goes from daytime wear to nighttime wear in a snap. So, you'll always look like your style is on point.

Sterling Silver gives you just the right amount of bling for whatever occasion you need. Stack multiple Sterling Silver rings on one finger or choose a stunning cocktail ring as a focal piece of jewelry.

Wearing Sterling Silver complements every outfit. You can look professional and stylish or sophisticated and tasteful. Whether you want to go big and bold or small and delicate, Sterling Silver jewelry comes in all sizes and designs for every taste preference.

Your Complete Guide to Pendant Necklaces

The global fashion industry is now worth over €2.5 trillion.

A large portion of this value comes from jewelry, which can be made from a variety of materials and come in countless different designs. One of the most common types of jewelry that people where is pendant necklaces.

However, not everybody understands what they need to know about a necklace with a pendant when jewelry shopping. Let's take a look at everything you need to keep in mind so that you can find the best piece for you.

So, What Is a Pendant?

A pendant is a piece of jewelry that hangs from a chain and can be made from a variety of materials, such as metals, stones, shells, and more.

Pendants can be simple or intricate and are often worn as a way to accessorize an outfit or make a statement.

How Do You Choose the Right Pendant Necklace?

When you're shopping for a pendant necklace, there are a few things you'll want to keep in mind so that you can choose the right piece for you.

First, think about the length of the necklace. You'll want to make sure that it's the right length for your neckline and that it will sit comfortably on your chest. Second, take into consideration the materials that the necklace is made from.

If you have sensitive skin, you'll want to avoid metals that could cause irritation. Third, think about the design of the pendant. Do you want something simple or something more intricate?

Finally, consider the price. Pendants can range in price from a few dollars to hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

Where Can You Buy Pendant Necklaces?

Pendant necklaces are widely available and can be purchased from a variety of retailers, both online and in-store.

Some of the most popular places to buy pendant necklaces include jewelry stores, department stores, and online retailers. As long as they have a good reputation, you shouldn't encounter problems.

What Type of Metal Is Best For My Skin Tone?

Some of the most common types of metals used in jewelry include gold, silver, and platinum. If you have sensitive skin, you may want to consider avoiding gold and silver and opt for platinum or another metal that is less likely to cause irritation. You should also consider the color of your skin's undertones.

If you have cool undertones, silver may be a good choice. If you have warm undertones, gold may be a better option.

Those who have neutral undertones could get away with wearing either gold or silver.

What Are Some of the Most Popular Pendant Necklace Designs?

Pendant necklaces come in a wide variety of designs, from simple to intricate.

Some of the most popular designs include hearts, crosses, keys, and letters. Pendants can also be adorned with stones, crystals, or other embellishments.

What Type of Stone Should I Choose?

Pendants can be made from a variety of different materials, including metals, stones, shells, and more. When choosing a stone for your pendant, you'll want to take into consideration the color, clarity, and cut of the stone.

You'll also want to make sure that the stone is of good quality so that it will last long.

What Is the Best Way to Care For My Pendant Necklace?

Pendant necklaces require special care so that they can last longer and continue to look their best.

When not in use, store your necklace in a jewelry box or a soft, dry cloth. To clean your necklace, use mild soap and warm water. Avoid using harsh chemicals, as they can damage the metal or stone of your pendant.

When drying your necklace, use a soft cloth to avoid scratching the surface.

How Can I Style My Pendant With My Outfits?

Pendants can be worn with a variety of different outfits and can be dressed up or down.

If you're looking to dress up your pendant, try pairing it with a nice blouse or dress. For a more casual look, you could pair your pendant with a t-shirt and jeans.

No matter how you style it, a pendant is a great way to add a personal touch to any outfit.

What Should I Look For When Shopping For One?

Be sure that you keep an eye out for past customer reviews so that you can fully understand the type of quality you'll get. Unfortunately, though, not all feedback you read is genuine. It's not uncommon for shady jewelry businesses to artificially inflate their reputation with fake reviews.

So, it's essential that you know how to recognize fake reviews when searching.

Of course, you should also take a look at their collection to see if they have something that appeals to you.

Not all jewelry stores will have what you are looking for. Finally, take a look at the prices they offer.

Some stores charge more than others, and you can likely get a better deal by shopping around. You should be wary, though, of stores that offer high-quality jewelry for a concerningly low price. There is a good chance that they are misrepresenting their product in situations like these.

Pendant Necklaces Are Easier to Find Than They Seem

Although choosing from the available options for pendant necklaces may seem overwhelming, it's much easier than it seems. Just be sure that you keep the above information in mind so that you can make the decision that is best for you.

Trendy Jewelry 2022

While fashion trends come and go, many of this year's types of jewelry are timeless and can be incorporated into your daily wardrobe to create a fashion statement. 

What are some of the jewelry fashion trends of 2022? There are plenty of fun trends for you to partake in this year. Many runways are showing off big, chunky jewelry. This includes chunky bracelets, cuffs, earrings, and statement necklaces. Layering chunky bracelets and cuffs is another trend that's been popular this year.

Pearls and crystals are popular this year—a reminder that classic jewelry will always be in style.

It's easy to incorporate these gemstones into your jewelry and wardrobe. Pearl earrings and necklaces are taking center stage. No matter their size or color, they've been seen on the runway this year by some of the most famous fashion designers. 

Crystals are a big statement, and they're a timeless statement to make.

Following the bold and big style of this year, crystal or gemstone pieces that stand out are extremely trendy right now. Chandelier-style earrings and bold crystal necklaces are the perfect pieces to wear to partake in this jewelry trend.

Here are more 2022 jewelry trends we're seeing on the runway this year. 

If you're looking to partake in some 2022 jewelry trends, be sure to spend your hard-earned money on quality jewelry. Below, we'll go over why quality matters. 

Why Quality Jewelry Matters

Taking part in jewelry trends is fun, but it's harder to enjoy it if you're worried about your jewelry breaking or not being able to withstand certain conditions when wearing it. Not to mention the pesky green tint on your skin that cheap jewelry often produces. 

When considering buying jewelry, it's important to be on the lookout for good quality jewelry. 

Quality jewelry is more durable. When your jewelry is made of durable metals and gemstones, you won't have to worry about your jewelry breaking. Quality jewelry is made with more care and with stronger materials. 

The best part is—you don't have to break the bank to purchase quality jewelry. When you're shopping for good quality jewelry, it's important to understand what to avoid and what to look for.

For example, stray away from metals like nickel or brass. These are usually cheaper metals, can cause allergic reactions, and don't hold together as well as other metals. You want to find jewelry that's sterling silver or titanium, and if you'd like gold jewelry, look for pieces that have gold in them, not just brushed or plated. 

Good quality jewelry can better withstand outside elements like weather.  You want to spend your hard-earned money on jewelry pieces that are going to compliment your style, without the hassle of having pieces break and fall apart while wearing them.

It's possible to find jewelry pieces that fit the fashion trends you love without breaking the bank. Always choose good quality jewelry to ensure your pieces will last. 

Styling Tips 

Understandably, you want to show your beautiful jewelry off. Here are some styling tips to help you look and feel your best while having your jewelry compliment your outfit. 

Since this year's jewelry is all about being bold, don't be afraid to make a statement. Choose a large or chunky necklace to wear with a plain dress or blouse. 

An important tip to remember is to create balance with your outfit. If you're going to wear a statement necklace, keep your other jewelry simple and small. Opt for smaller earrings and necklaces to keep your outfit balanced and to bring attention to your statement piece.

Don't be afraid to mix metals—it's becoming increasingly popular to wear gold and silver together. What once was a taboo jewelry rule is now a common trend. 

Since chunky bracelets are back, stack a few chunky bracelets over a long-sleeved top to really show off your gorgeous bracelets. Be sure to create balance within the rest of your jewelry so the outfit doesn't look or feel too heavy. 

Of course, everyone's style is different. The most important thing is that you should feel beautiful and confident in the jewelry that you buy. Don't be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone and try one of these trends! You may be surprised by what you create.

7 Common Necklace Shopping Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Buying the right necklace to wear with your outfits involves knowing what not to do. Here are common necklace shopping mistakes and how to avoid them.

Keyword(s): common necklace shopping mistakes

Did you know that the most expensive necklace in the world is worth $200 million? It's called "A Heritage in Bloom" and features a 104-carat diamond, 72 jades, and 600 pink diamonds. 

While this may be out of the luxury necklace budget for most, there are still many affordable styles of necklaces you can find when buying necklaces online. However, there are some common necklace shopping mistakes that can also come with buying necklaces online too. 

In this guide, we'll detail 7 common necklace shopping mistakes and what you can do to make sure your online necklace buying experience is the best that it can be. Keep reading for more information below.

1. Not Reading Product and Online Retailer Reviews First

With so many options for necklace retailers online, it's so important to check the product reviews and reviews of the retailers in general. Just because a business has a website doesn't automatically mean it has a great reputation or sells high-quality products.

One of the biggest common necklace shopping mistakes is not reading these reviews or going with a website that may have necklaces that are of questionable quality. You need to do your research first before you commit to buying.

A good retail site that has nothing to hide will proudly display its customer reviews. These are honest and open reviews from real people who have shopped for and bought the same products you're looking for. Their feedback will tell you everything you need to know about necklace features and the product's quality.

2. Not Setting and Staying Within a Luxury Necklace Budget While Shopping

The typical American household spends an average of $615 per year on watches and other jewelry items. Buying necklaces online can be fun, but with so many choices and styles for necklaces, it can also be distracting and intimidating finding what you're looking for.

Setting a realistic budget for buying doesn't sound fun, but it's another one of the most common necklace shopping mistakes. Budgeting will help you better narrow down the options of what you're looking for from potentially thousands of options for online retailers.

Setting a budget and staying with it will also save you from buyer's remorse later on if you give in to your impulses and splurge on something you really shouldn't have bought in the first place. You want something that you can wear every day proudly without being too afraid of losing or damaging something pricey and impractical.

3. Not Specifying What You Are Searching For Online

Again, with so many options out there you want to narrow it down to what you're specifically looking for. Otherwise, you will be clicking through thousands of time-consuming online options for necklace retailers.

Instead of throwing out a generic term like "online necklace stores" find the particular features, looks, and styles for necklaces you want. Do you want a specific metal type or color? Are you looking for a classic design or do you want to see the latest necklace trends?

The more specific you are with your search terms, the more you can avoid another of the most common necklace shopping mistakes of vague search criteria and more easily find what you want.  

4. Not Understanding Your Own Personal Style

Your personal style has a lot to do with buying necklaces online as well. Not knowing or understanding your personal style before you shop is one of the biggest and most common necklace shopping mistakes. Necklaces and other jewelry choices can be based on several factors including your skin tone, your height, and your clothing color preference.

A survey of women between the ages of 25-40 years of age showed that 35% of women who buy jewelry for themselves preferred white gold as their first choice. 17% of this same survey group said silver was their top preference. Platinum came in third place with 15% and rose gold registered a 13% preference. 

Yellow gold came in at an 11% preference rate, while 9% said they had no preference or would go with mixed metal styles for necklaces and other jewelry items. 

Those with cool skin tones will look best with white metals such as silver, platinum, and white gold. Women with warm skin tones will favor yellow and rose gold, as well as brass and copper jewelry. Neutral skin tone types can wear either yellow or white toned metals.

Wearing long chains will make those will have a lengthening effect on shorter, thicker necks. Likewise, a long chain on an individual with a long neck will flatter the natural neckline and collarbone.

5. Relying Too Heavily on Current Jewelry Trends

Jewelry trends can be enjoyable to a certain extent but remember, they can come in and go out of style very quickly. If you focus too much on acquiring pieces that fall in line with the latest necklace trends, pretty soon you'll have a lot of necklaces gathering dust in your jewelry box that you won't wear again for fear of being labeled out of style.

If you find some trend jewelry that looks good on you or aligns with your personal style, it's okay to buy some pieces, But going overboard with trends is another one of the common necklace shopping mistakes.

By focusing too much on trends, you're also doing your personal brand a disservice since you're not going with what looks best on you. Focus on more natural and timeless jewelry pieces that look good on you no matter what the latest necklace trends are. 

6. Not Reading the Product Descriptions Fully

Good online retailers also provide detailed product descriptions for each of their jewelry products. If you're on a site that has vague descriptions or no product descriptions at all, this can be a big red flag. 

Not fully reading these product descriptions is another one of the most common necklace shopping mistakes you can make when shopping online. These descriptions contain valuable information such as:

• the type of metal used
• the chain length
• the chain style
• the finish
• the type of closure
• the pendant or stone size
• the colors available
• the origin of the materials 

You can also find high-definition photos of the item you are looking at so you can zoom in and better see the details in the necklace itself before you buy it. You can look at the styles for necklaces on models to get an idea of how they hang around the neck. This ensures you are getting the best quality necklace that has exactly what features and designs you want.

7. High Jewelry Prices Do Not Equal a Higher Quality

You may look at a piece of expensive jewelry and think that its high price must be because of its high quality, but this form of misdirection is also one of the common necklace shopping mistakes. This has nothing to do with its quality.

Traditional jewelry contains a markup of 10-20 times its original cost. This is due to the expense of distribution, middlemen, branding, and advertising costs. So, you may not even be getting a piece of high-quality jewelry for that inflated cost.  

When you buy directly from the manufacturer themselves, you're getting the most for your money. You can be assured it is of the best quality with no price gouging.

Avoid Common Necklace Shopping Mistakes

Did you know that the U.S. jewelry industry is projected to reach nearly $58 billion in revenue in 2021?

Every woman wants to walk into a room and have all eyes on them for all the right reasons. The hair, the clothes, but most importantly, the jewelry.

Women should have quality jewelry that embodies their fashion sense and brand. It can often be challenging to find the right pieces, until now.

Keep reading to learn all about how you can accentuate your wardrobe with our practical guide to selecting quality jewelry for yourself.

The Difference Between Fine Jewelry and Fashion Jewelry When it Comes to Quality Jewelry

It is important to understand and discover your style. 

Are you more modern or more casual? Does your taste veer more classic and simple or do you like to think outside the box?

Most women think there are only two categories when it comes to jewelry, fine jewelry or fashion jewelry.

Often consisting of diamonds and gold, fine jewelry is too expensive to wear every day except for wedding/engagement rings. Fashion jewelry is more cost-effective, but it is made cheaply and goes out of style quickly.

Another category of affordable quality jewelry is known as bridge jewelry.

What is Bridge Jewelry?

Bridge jewelry is a line of fashion jewelry made of sterling silver and comes in gold, platinum, or rose gold finishes. Bridge jewelry also uses semi-precious stones such as garnet, pearl, tanzanite, opal, and turquoise. 

This type of jewelry allows women to have the functionality of beautiful quality jewelry pieces that make them feel like a million bucks without actually paying it. It's called attainable luxury.

From successful businesswomen seeking to upgrade their distinct look or younger women striving to refine their emerging self-brand, women aren't waiting around anymore for men to buy them jewelry, they're making their own money and buying it themselves. 

Bridge jewelry brands offer a wide selection of quality jewelry options that fit both your style and your budget. 

So, before you waste your money on cheap fast-fashion or spend two months' rent on a flashy diamond necklace, check out these alternatives instead. 

Sterling Silver

A sterling silver chain is timeless, elegant, durable, and inexpensive. There are many ways to style it.

Wear it long. Wear it with a pendant. Wear multiple chains together.

You can choose from different thicknesses and designs, like the paperclip or the popular box chain. 

Sterling silver is also a top choice for high-quality body jewelry due to its hypo-allergenic properties.

Statement Necklaces

If you're looking to go bolder, statement necklaces will help you say "notice me!" and are a surefire way to catch the eye of everyone in the room.

As its name implies, a statement necklace is a larger, chunkier piece of neckwear that is often made out of larger stone segments like Swarovski crystal or mystic quartz.

They should be worn as a standalone piece. 

Colored Chunky Coral Necklaces

Colored coral necklaces are a fun and fashionable way to add a pop of color to your wardrobe.

You can use colored coral to pair with a bright pattern for an added burst of flair. Or you can wear it with a little black dress to give it a little extra dash of daring.

Dress up your denim or coordinate your coral necklace with hats, sunglasses, shoes, scarves, and handbags.  Or mix and match for fun color combinations.

Pendant Necklaces

You can't go wrong with a tasteful pendant. Whether it is a plain initial charm, heart, cross, animal, tree of life, compass, or other meaningful tribute, a pendant is the best way to personalize a necklace that is uniquely you.

You can also choose pendants made from cubic zirconia, Roman glass, amber, abalone shell, Swarovski crystal, and more. 

Rings

You don't have to be engaged or married to wear a ring anymore. Rings on their own have become an independent woman's top choice for displaying their individuality.

You're not limited to only wearing one ring on a specific finger either. You can wear rings on every finger if you like, or stack rings on top of each other.

From large cocktail rings to sleek bands, sterling silver and gemstone rings are a dynamic way of drawing attention to your hands as an extension of your personal brand.

Anklets

Anklets were thought to be a trend that would fizzle out, but the truth is they are more popular than ever.

The former 90's girls are the full-grown women of today and anklets have made a big comeback, but that doesn't mean the younger generations can't get in on it too.

Anklets are a chic and delicate way to dress up a pair of heels or add a bit of fun to cropped capris for a girls' weekend.  

Earrings

Tried and true. Earrings have been a go-to fashion accessory for centuries.

Hoops, drops, studs, dangles, teardrop, and other styles can be made from sterling silver and accented with pearls, Roman glass, moonstone, and cubic zirconia.

It's important that the size, shape, and length of your earrings flatters your facial features.

Bracelets

Another longstanding fashion trend is bracelets. Dressed-up or dressed down, bracelets are always a standard. 

Depending on your event, stick with a sophisticated thin bracelet for a formal event, large cuffs or multiple bangles stacked up are better suited for a fun night out. 

Be cautious not to overdo large or multiple bracelets at the office or other places where they might snag, fall off, or be too distracting.

Layering Jewelry Like a Pro: 7 Tips to Keep in Mind

Do you want to know how those stylish folks on Instagram layer their jewelry pieces? Keep reading to learn the pros' secrets to layering jewelry.

Keyword(s): layering jewelry

Marilyn Monroe once said that famous phrase, "diamonds are a girl's best friend", but that sentiment applies to all jewelry and adornment. 

We love jewelry because it enhances our natural beauty while showing off man-made beauty as well. It's also fun to mix and match the jewelry we have collected over the years to create new, fun looks. 

Layering jewelry is one way to keep all your favorite jewelry pieces fresh and fun to wear.

Layered jewelry is here to stay, so it's time to embrace it and try new things to learn what looks work for you. 

Read on to learn seven of the best layering jewelry tips so you can try it for yourself today. 

1. Pick One and Stick With It

Embrace the spirit of the layered jewelry look without overwhelming your outfit. 

If you choose to layer your necklaces it may overload your outfit to also add layered bracelets and rings. You want your layered masterpiece to be the focal point of your accessories, to let it shine. 

Wearing too much of everything will weigh your look down. This does not mean, however, that you should not wear other kinds of jewelry when you layer your necklaces. You can definitely still wear other kinds of jewelry!

The key to wearing all the jewelry you want without ruining your look is to be picky. If you're wearing a stack of layered bracelets, pick a simple chain necklace to go with it and one or two rings to wear.

2. Length Matters

The number one rule for successfully layering necklaces is to choose necklaces of different lengths. This is important because if you choose pieces that are a similar length they will bunch up on your neck, appear bulky, and be unflattering. 

The basic way to layer necklaces is to start with a shorter chain. You can opt to start with a choker or a short chain, and it helps to invest in necklaces with adjustable lengths as well.

The next necklace should be longer than your first without being too much longer.

Layered necklaces look best when there is cohesion between the lengths. Wearing one short necklace and one long one will look strange and almost like an accident. 

Your length layers should be somewhat close to each other while still leaving enough space that each necklace is clearly on display.

3. Incorporate Variety

One of the most fun things about playing with layered jewelry ideas is mixing and matching different designs, prints, and styles! Silver layered jewelry is timeless, but long gone are the days of only wearing silver with silver, or gold with gold. 

There is a way to mix all your different styles of jewelry without your look becoming dragged down with accessories. 

For instance, if you have a chunky silver cuff bracelet you can stack thinner bracelets to wear with it. You can add a simple silver bangle and a silver chain bracelet. Even though they are all different, they will create a textured, chic look.

You can take a statement piece, like this moonstone bolo necklace, and layer it with different, shorter necklaces.

You can pair it with a choker featuring small charms and a medium-length necklace featuring a decorative stone to create a fashion-forward, celestial look. 

4. Tie It All Together

The trick to wearing layered jewelry along with other pieces is to bind them together with one common element. 

For example, if you layer necklaces and your statement piece features pearls, it will pull your look together to feature some pearls in your other pieces. Find a beautiful pearl ring, like this freshwater pearl Bali ring, and choose earrings featuring small pearls.

This way you will be getting the most out of your jewelry without overwhelming your outfit. 

5. Don't Be Afraid of Color

Color is your friend when it comes to jewelry. Simple silver and gold is always a classic look, but it's always a good idea to break out of your shell and be bold. 

If you hesitate to use too much color, start small. Pick a central item of gold or silver jewelry and build pops of color around it. 

If your central piece is a chunky gold chain you can take your look to the next level by pairing it with thin red and green fabric necklaces. 

If you're ready to dive fully into color, you can pick a bold main item, like a pastel green necklace. Pair this with pastel yellow and blue necklaces of various lengths for a brunch-ready look. 

6. Through Thick and Thin

Just as length is important, the width of your jewelry pieces matters when it comes to layering. 

Every woman should have a few pieces of chunky jewelry in her accessories. That does not mean they should always be worn together!

Chunky jewelry will create a bulging effect when worn together, especially if worn on the same body part, like around your neck or your wrist. 

Make sure to wear jewelry of varying thicknesses when you're layering them together.

Are you looking to buy fine jewelry from traditional jewelry stores? Then you'll want to read about some basic tips before you get started.

Keyword(s): fine jewelry, jewelry

If you're among the 75% of women who like to buy their own jewelry, finding the right pieces for your style is a priority. It's a fun task, but it can also be a challenge. There are so many options to consider!

Luckily, choosing fine jewelry is easy when you know how to do it. Whether you want professional, casual, or formal pieces, there's something out there perfect for you. Read on to learn some of the top tips for selecting and wearing pieces that you love.

1. Set a Budget

Fine jewelry can get expensive and be a drain on your wallet. Luckily, pieces come with a lot of different price tags, meaning that there's something that everyone can afford. Look at your finances and decide what you can realistically spend on an accessory.

The best online retailers offer fine jewelry at a low price. Affordable luxury means that you can purchase gorgeous pieces that incorporate gold, sterling silver, platinum, and Swarovski crystals with no guilt. It also gives you the chance to buy more pieces to create a cohesive look with matching jewelry.

2. Know What Jewelry Type You Want

The next step in the buying process is to know what kind of accessory you're looking to invest in. Do you wear a lot of V-neck shirts that would look best with a statement necklace? Will a bracelet snazz up your wrist in professional settings and give you an air of tasteful authority?

Determine what you will wear the most often. You want to buy a piece that you'll get a lot of use from. Think logically about the lower-end pieces that you currently wear and get high-quality pieces of the same type.

3. Understand Your Style

Sometimes you'll see a beautiful piece of jewelry that speaks to you. Unfortunately, not every gorgeous piece is going to have your name written on it. This is true no matter how much you love it.

If you wear primarily cool colors but see a rose-gold ruby bangle that you like, you probably shouldn't buy it despite its beauty. Instead, find something made from white gold that's set with an emerald or a sapphire. There are likely options in similar styles that feature different materials, so consider alternatives that you will wear regularly.

4. Consider Common Occasions

Do you spend most days in an office? Or are you someone who works from home but loves to go out in the evenings? Your answers to these questions determine the type of fine jewelry that you should buy.

If you're looking for work jewelry, subtle pieces are essential. They complement your outfit and make you look elegant but professional. Those who are looking to wear pieces on formal occasions, dates, and classy nights out may want similar styles.

However, if you want fine jewelry to stand out in casual settings, you can get away with more. Bigger, brighter crystals and large rose-gold bangles are perfect for these occasions. Make sure that you think about when and where you will wear a piece before investing in it.

5. Find the Right Retailer

There are a lot of different fine jewelry retailers out there, so it can be tricky to choose where to go.

All of these jewelers have their own unique styles. It can be overwhelming to go to a bunch of stores and compare pieces with those at other locations. Additionally, many fine jewelry brands are extremely expensive (and often overpriced for what you're getting).

Consider online retailers with diverse, high-quality options. wehoautodetail offers collections that feature high-end metals and gorgeous real gemstones.

Diamonds, quartz, rubies, emeralds, sapphires, and multicolored Swarovski crystals are available online immediately. Italian glass is also an amazing way to spruce up any necklace or pair of earrings. Affordable luxury is all the rage in fine jewelry right now, so take a look.

6. Look at All of Your Options

Informed decision-making is important whenever you make a purchase. Browsing fine jewelry stores is no exception. You want to get the perfect pieces, not simply something that looks 'pretty good.'

Make sure that you browse potential options before making a decision. This will give you the opportunity to compare and contrast styles and colors. You'll feel more confident in your choice when it's finally time to check out.

7. Understand Sizing

No matter what type of jewelry you're getting, you'll need to take some measurements and determine the size you need.

Adjustable chains are perfect for necklaces since you'll want to wear them with multiple necklines. Still, you'll need to measure your neck and make sure that the adjustable chain will fit properly. Adjustable bracelet chains also work wonders and require similar measurements.

Sizing is especially important with rings. Whether they're wedding rings or not, fine rings aren't usually adjustable.

Jewelers can only do so many alterations later. Get a professional ring sizer and see which best fits you before ordering anything.

8. Work Up to More Pieces

Remember that there's no pressure to buy all of your fine jewelry in one sitting. You can get some pieces now and others later.

This is ideal for those who don't know what types of pieces they're going to use the most often. You can see what you wear the most and get other matching pieces later. You also can build on your pieces to form a full collection of matching jewelry.

Working up doesn't just let you invest wisely. It also lets you budget properly. You don't need to put out hundreds of dollars at once on affordable luxury but instead can build a larger collection over time with little stress.

Invest in Gorgeous Fine Jewelry Today

While choosing fine jewelry can be a challenge, it's simple when you consider your specific needs. Now that you have some tips on choosing accessories that fit your personal brand, it's time to get started.

We're committed to bringing you high-quality jewelry that helps you look amazing and feel confident. Shop our collections to find and purchase pieces that look perfect on any occasion.

7 Ways to Wear Red Coral Necklaces

Have you recently bought the red coral necklace of your dreams? Read here for seven amazing ways to wear and style red coral necklaces.

Keyword(s): red coral necklaces

Coral has long been revered for its beauty and supernatural powers. In ancient times, coral made its way from regal Egyptian tombs to the thrones of Greek empires. Historians estimate that coral jewelry dates back more than 25,000 years.

And it hasn't gone out of style. Today, coral is still a vibrant, luxurious, and gorgeous material for accessories. If you are looking to add some ancient flair with a modern look, red coral necklaces can deliver.

But, with an accessory so bold and eye-catching, how can you pull together the rest of your look? What are the best ways to style these types of jewelry?

Read on to discover seven incredible ways to wear coral necklaces. These tips will take you from the office to your next special event with ease. That makes coral the ultimate investment you'll wear for years to come. 

1. Dress Up Denim 

Do you feel comfortable in jeans but worry your look is too casual? A red coral necklace is an effortless way to dial up this relaxed look. And, the color red pops against all denim shades.

Try pairing your necklace with a denim dress for an elegant summer look. Or layer coral necklaces on top of a denim jacket. 

2. Add Color to Professional Wear 

A professional wardrobe is attractive and sleek. But, sometimes a black suit or navy shift dress can feel repetitive and uninspired.

And while your favorite silver necklaces pair nicely with these looks, get creative and switch things up. For example, this wehoautodetail coral single-strand necklace delivers just the right amount of drama. A long necklace is perfect for layering with your favorite workwear button-downs, suit jackets, or dresses. 

3. Dazzle at the Beach 

Do you have a luxurious beach holiday planned? Do you need elegant looks that take you from the sand to a lunch reservation in a flash? A red coral necklace is an ideal accessory to elevate your look.

Pair a shorter style necklace with your favorite bathing suit top. Or, for an elegant beachside cocktail, style a long red coral necklace with a caftan or maxi-style cover-up dress.

Finish off the look with stylish sandals, a straw beach tote, a hat, and your favorite sunglasses. A necklace is a perfect way to add glamour to a beachside look. 

4. Special Events 

Special events are all about making a statement. While the dress and shoes are important, consider your accessories first. Design your look around a necklace.

For example, a black evening gown pairs perfectly with this coral five-strand chunky necklace. But, what is some other special event or evening looks to style with a red coral necklace? Here are some ideas to inspire your next event outfit: 

• Pattern cocktail party dress with a strapless or tank style neckline 
• Red dress for a monochromatic chic look 
• Emerald evening gown 
• Turquoise evening gown 
• Navy dress or pantsuit 
• Grey dress or pantsuit 
• Black jumpsuit 
• Black cocktail dress 
• Black two-piece suit with pants or a skirt 

While the variety of special events wear is endless, these are some ideas to get you started. Don't be afraid to dress colorfully and boldly when styling your red coral necklace! Choosing the right color for your taste and style has proven effects to lift your mood.  

5. Color Pop With White

The color white is often associated with blank canvases. While white may seem like a neutral or fresh color choice, it packs a punch when paired with red. When you pair a brilliant white t-shirt or dress with your red coral necklace, the color pops and transforms.

White as your clothing background helps the necklace to stand out and appear more brilliantly colored. If you prefer to dress in neutrals or embrace a more simple style, white is already a cornerstone of your wardrobe. For summer, pair your favorite white linen blouses, dresses, and cotton t-shirts with a red coral necklace for a wow effect.

No Seasonal Limitations 

But, when the weather cools down, don't pack away your coral necklaces just yet. You can still style these pieces with white clothing in the fall, winter, and spring.

Simply change the texture of your clothing choices. For example, a cozy white cashmere sweater and jeans paired with a red coral necklace looks dynamite. While a white blazer in spring is practical and chic.  

6. Mix With Your Favorite Pieces 

Do you have silver jewelry pieces you love? Or are you a gold or rose gold fiend? You can still wear these jewelry pieces by mixing and matching them with a coral necklace.

For example, pair your favorite diamond stud or silver earrings with this red coral drop Bali-style necklace. Or, embrace the jewelry guides layered necklace trend. Simply pair a coral short pendant with your favorite long necklace. 

Mixing and matching your existing jewelry pieces with a new coral necklace is a great way to make a statement. Coral helps to add color to your style and interest to your next look. 

7. Make a Statement 

Statement necklaces have been a style trend for years. For example, oversized pendants, chunky collar necklaces, and long beaded lariats are just some jewelry pieces that make an impact.

So, instead of choosing your accessories last, use your red necklace to make a statement and define your outfit. When your outfit focus is on red coral, the rest of your look can be simple and neutral. This places focus on your beautiful jewelry piece and draws attention to your neck.

For your next cocktail party or dinner out, throw on your favorite black dress. Pair the outfit with an eye-catching chunky red coral necklace. Finish off the look with black simple accessories like high-heels, a clutch bag, and a shawl. 

Red Coral Necklaces Can Transform Your Style 

Red coral necklaces may seem intimidating or challenging to style. But, these beautiful jewelry pieces can fit seamlessly into any wardrobe and have the power to transform your style.

Next time you struggle to choose your perfect outfit, refer to these top style tips for inspiration. Whether you have a special event or are hosting a cocktail party, a red coral necklace is an eye-catching and beautiful accessory to top off your look.

How to Buy the Perfect Jewelry as a Gift for a Loved One

We've compiled the most essential information about giving jewelry as a gift. Read more and ensure you pick the most suitable jewelry item to gift a loved one.

Keyword(s): jewelry as a gift

Buying jewelry for someone you love is a daunting task.

You want to make sure that when they open their present, it’s exactly what they wanted and something that will last them years to come. This article will help guide you through all the steps necessary to find the perfect piece of jewelry for your loved one this holiday season!

We’ve compiled the most essential information about giving jewelry as a gift. Read more and ensure you pick the perfect piece of jewelry to give your loved one this holiday season.

Determine Their Style

The first thing you need to do is determine what your loved one likes and dislikes, as well as the type of jewelry they usually wear.

This will help greatly when it comes to going shopping for a piece of jewelry that matches their taste. If you know them well enough then you should have a pretty good idea of what to buy.

For example, if they usually wear dainty necklaces then you probably shouldn’t buy them a chunky bracelet. This will just result in them never wearing it and it will be a waste of money.

What you want to do is figure out what their style is and buy a piece of jewelry that matches. You can do this by simply looking at some of the pieces of jewelry they already own. If you notice that most of their accessories are on the more expensive side then you should consider upgrading them to something nicer for this holiday season.

Consider the Occasion

The type of occasion is also something you need to take into account when buying jewelry as a gift. For example, if it’s for an anniversary then you may want to purchase something more sentimental and romantic than if it’s just a regular gift.

Depending on what the occasion is, you should make sure you buy something that will fit it well. The last thing you want is for them to receive the gift in front of everyone else, only for it not to match the occasion.

What’s the Price Range?

Another thing you need to think about is how much you want to spend on the jewelry. This will help narrow down your options and make finding the perfect piece a lot easier.

For example, if you only want to spend around $100 then you should start searching for pieces that fall within this price range. If you want to go a little bit higher and spend around $500, then make sure they’re still in your budget, or else it could end up being too expensive.

Doing this will help you save time and money when shopping for the perfect piece of jewelry.

Gold or Silver?

When it comes to choosing the type of metal, gold or silver are the most popular options. 

Gold is more luxurious but silver can be just as beautiful depending on the type of design. There are various other metals to choose from too, so don’t forget about those!

For instance, if your loved one is more of a gold person, then don’t choose silver. On the other hand, if they tend to wear more silver jewelry then you won’t want to get them something in gold.

Find Out What Type of Jewelry They Like

There are many different types of jewelry available on the market, including bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and rings amongst others.

The best thing you can do is ask your loved one what they like and dislike when it comes to this kind of gift or if there’s anything in particular that they have been wanting for a long time now. This will help make it easier for you when shopping because you won’t be wondering where to start.

For example, if they love wearing necklaces then you should start your search there. If they don’t usually wear a lot of jewelry, then rings or earrings may be a better option.

Get Them Something Unique

If you want to make an impression this holiday season, then get them something unique that they won’t expect. This can be tricky, but it’s doable if you put some thought into it.

One way to do this is by looking at their personality and seeing what type of jewelry would match them best. For example, if they love taking risks and are always up for trying new things then maybe something funky and unique would be perfect.

However, if they are more of a conservative person then something traditional would suit them better. Also, consider what the occasion is and make sure you buy something appropriate for it. This way, even though it will still be unique, it won’t come off as too weird or awkward in front of everyone else.

Buying a Gift for a Man?

If you choose jewelry as a gift for a man, then there are a few more things you need to take into account. 

Firstly, you’ll want to think about the style of the man you’re buying for - is the more conservative or does he like to experiment with his look? 

You should also consider what type of material is within the jewelry. Gold is often favored amongst men but silver can also look very classy and elegant depending on the design. Last but not least, don’t forget about rings! 

A nice ring is always a great gift for a man and there are so many different styles to choose from.

Finding the Perfect Jewelry as a Gift

Now that you’re armed with all this information, buying jewelry as a gift for a loved one will be a lot easier.

Just take your time and think about what they like, what type of occasion it is and how much you want to spend. With these things in mind, you’ll find the perfect piece of jewelry to make them happy!

How Milan Jewelry Remains Timeless

Milan jewelry collections are often elegant, refined, and add a look of class to any ensemble. Learn where to get affordable timeless jewelry here.

Keyword(s): milan jewelry

Fashion is one of the most important forms of self-expression for people all across the globe. It's one of the best ways that we can showcase who we are to those around us. Not only that, but it allows us to form connections with others who express similar tastes.

Wearing an accessory that stands out is a great way to showcase your personal flair. Necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and more are perfect for both social and professional settings, and nothing can beat Milan jewelry. Read on to learn why Milan collections are timeless and tasteful.

They Blend the Simple With the Intricate

Milan jewelry is known for its complexity. Glass beads are hand-painted with organic, geometric, or floral patterns even when they're so small you can hardly see them. High-end sterling silver is fashioned into large statement pieces with gemstone accents.

In this way, Italian jewelry looks extremely intricate. However, on another level, these same pieces are incredibly minimalist. They're a paradox.

Those small, hand-painted glass beads are strung on  sterling silver chains and shown off as a single charm. Intricate gemstone earrings are a tiny part of a much larger outfit. Some pieces are larger medallions that don't incorporate any hand-painting, and these are in a simple unicolor despite their intricate designs.

You Can Accentuate Your Personal Style

Milan jewelry is trendy during times when both minimalism and statement pieces are popular. One of these styles is en vogue pretty much all the time. However, to make a piece truly timeless for you to wear, you need to consider your personal style when selecting a piece.

Many pieces that would be considered 'timeless' simply aren't going to fit in with your personal aesthetic. They will go unwork and so their universal appeal isn't going to much matter. You need to pick something that will never go out of style in your individual view, not just in society's.

Think about getting a bracelet or anklet that features an Italian bead that's hand-painted to be your favorite color. This will fit in with the rest of your wardrobe, so you're sure to wear it often. A simple string of pearls or gemstones will also do the trick since they go with virtually any outfit.

Pieces Are Perfect for Any Occasion

Another reason that Milano jewelry is timeless is its universal appeal. These pieces aren't restricted to social settings but provide the perfect flair for your professional persona, too.

One of the reasons that this is the case is the diversity that buying the latest Italian jewelry offers. You can get pieces in tons of shapes, sizes, colors, and styles. This gives you the option to choose subtler pieces that look more professional in addition to larger, more sociable ones.

Milano jewelry is also a great conversation starter. This makes it a timeless choice for any setting in which you'll be meeting new people. The pieces help break the ice at business, social, and formal events alike.

To find a piece that works perfectly for you, decide on whether you want glass beads, gemstones, or Swarovski crystal jewelry. Think about the colors that you most want to showcase. This will give you a great place to begin your search. You can then browse our shop by category or use the search bar to type keywords that will lead you to your perfect piece.

Complete Collections Have Timeless Appeal

When you shop for other jewelry online or in-stores, you need to choose between dozens of pieces that don't go together. Creating a cohesive jewelry set is a challenge. It becomes even more difficult when you try to make your slapped-together "collection" go with any one of your favorite outfits.

However, Milan jewelry circumvents this issue. You can purchase multiple pieces that have been made to go together.

These collections, such as the David Beck Bali collection and the Marcasite collection, give you a cohesive aesthetic. They save you time when needing to match your jewelry together and ensure that you don't have any sloppy or mismatched pieces.

A jewelry collection never goes out of style because you will always look purposeful and put together. You can also get multiple different collections and select the one that works perfectly for the occasion that you're headed out to. A more diverse jewelry box gives you more options for pairing accessories with various outfits.

Milan Jewelry Is Affordable and Accessible

You may think that purchasing an entire jewelry collection sounds like an expensive endeavor, but it's extremely affordable. We offer multiple collections of fine jewelry made in Paris, Israel, and Bali as well as in Milan, Italy. You can get luxury handmade pieces, even those that incorporate Swarovski crystals, for under $50.

This makes it accessible for even those operating within a budget. Since the pieces are handmade, these low prices are made even more impressive.

You can order this jewelry online and have it delivered right to your home. This makes it even more of a timeless classic because people anywhere in the world can access it. It draws us together.

How to Choose Classic Jewelry Pieces

Choosing classic jewelry pieces is key to building a timeless collection. Here are some tips to choosing your next classic.

Keyword(s): classic jewelry pieces

When you were younger, jewelry was a fun way to accessorize and express yourself. Now that you're an adult, it can still feel just as fun while also being luxuriously and more mature.

If you're ready to ditch cheap fast-fashion pieces and elevate your jewelry collection, you're in the right place. We're going to show you a few timeless jewelry pieces. Next, we'll teach you how to choose the best classic jewelry pieces that you'll enjoy for years to come.

1. Freshwater Pearls

Pearl pieces have come in and out of style enough times to establish them as jewelry staples. The trends around pearls may change; sometimes chunky pearl necklaces are all the rage and at other times dainty pearl pendant necklaces are the way to go.

But no matter what, pearl jewelry is a classic staple that you need in your collection. You can wear them with casual and formal looks, and authentic pearls can last for a lifetime.

Baroque and freshwater pearls are a beautiful classic option that is also on-trend right now. 

2. A Delicate Diamond-Cut Bracelet

You need a timeless piece that you can rely on to dress up any outfit. It's understated enough for daily wear and yet elegant enough for a fancy night out. It dazzles in the light and will catch everyone's attention. It's also lightweight and easy to wear all day.

3. Stud Earrings

Stud earrings are a classic choice because they go with everything. Whether you go with diamond studs, sterling silver, or pearls, they add the perfect touch of timeless elegance to your look. 

4. Statement Necklace

Classic jewelry pieces don't always have to be delicate and understated. You can still show off your style and make a statement with a timeless piece.

You should always have a chunky statement necklace in your collection. It can add texture and a pop of color to your outfit while still being elegant. Opt for natural materials, like coral or gemstones, so it stands out from typical fast-fashion statement necklaces.

5. Gold Necklace

Gold necklaces are versatile and easy to add to any look. You can layer a couple of them together, double-strand a long chain necklace, or go with a simple gold pendant. 

They're another piece that can dress up or dress down any outfit and work for any occasion. 

How Do You Choose Classic Jewelry Pieces?

Now that you've browsed a couple of classic jewelry options, how do you choose which ones to add to your collection? Here are a few things to keep in mind as you're shopping for your next piece of jewelry.

Will You Wear it Over and Over Again?

A classic jewelry piece is one that you can see yourself wearing for years to come. There's nothing wrong with buying trendy jewelry, but if you want your investment to last, ask yourself if you will still love it when the trend fades.

If the answer is yes, then it belongs in your jewelry collection. You deserve to splurge on a beautiful piece that you know you will wear over and over again and love for years.

What Kind of Outfits Does it Go With?

The best timeless jewelry is versatile and works with a variety of looks. It should be able to dress up a casual outfit and complement your formal wear.

Not all of your jewelry needs to be this versatile. It's okay to have some pieces that are reserved for fancy occasions. However, if you're just beginning your elevated jewelry collection, it will make you happy to have pieces that you can wear often for any occasion. 

Does it Match Your Undertone?

All skin types have an undertone color that is either warm, cool, or neutral. Warm undertones typically look better in gold jewelry, and cool undertones look better in silver jewelry.

Don't worry, this isn't a hardline rule. If you have warm undertones and love wearing silver jewelry, go for it. But it's a good rule of thumb to keep in mind as you shop. If you want pieces that you'll wear forever, choose what compliments you the best.

Neutral undertones are a blend of warm and cool, so you can typically effortlessly pull off any metal color. However, once you get your jewelry collection started, you might find yourself always gravitating towards the same metal color.

This is totally normal. Most people choose to commit to either gold or silver so that their pieces match each other.

Do You Love it?

This is the most important factor when it comes to picking out nice jewelry for yourself. Never buy anything you do not love just because all the fashion magazines say it's a classic piece that you need.

When you invest in a beautiful piece of jewelry, you are investing in yourself. Each piece you choose should embody your personality and taste. Remember, you wear the jewelry, not the other way around. 

You will love having a collection of classic and timeless jewelry pieces that you can keep forever, but every piece should also speak to you. Before you buy anything, always ask yourself if you truly love it. That's how you know it will be a timeless addition to your collection.

Elevate Your Jewelry Collection

Now that you're a real-life adult with all of the pressure and responsibilities that come with grown-up life, you deserve a beautiful collection of classic jewelry pieces. 

Say goodbye to fast-fashion costume jewelry and treat yourself to something dazzling and unique. Shop with longevity in mind, and don't rush yourself. Thie perfect jewelry staples will find you.

As young people increasingly move away from natural diamonds, could lab grown diamonds be the future? Read more to find out.

Keyword(s): lab grown diamonds

Do you love jewelry? Are you one of the 73% of millennials who want to shop sustainably? 

More and more shoppers are willing to pay a little more to ensure their high-quality pieces follow ethical practices. 

Many jewels historically have a somewhat shady past. Conflict diamonds, stones that are mined using unethical practices; the industry has seen it all. Fortunately, times are changing. To both protect our planet and its people. 

Astounding new technologies enable us to create stones in the laboratory. One of these miracle inventions is lab grown diamonds.

You may think this sounds like a strange concept; how can a naturally occurring stone be grown in a lab? However, these fascinating engineered stones are here to stay and have an array of remarkable properties. 

Read on to find out why lab created diamonds are the future.

How Are Lab Grown Diamonds Made?

Diamonds formed deep in the earth billions of years ago and were brought to the earth's surface with the heat and pressure caused by volcanic explosions. 

Lab created diamonds undergo a similar process. High pressure and high temperatures are used to replicate the same chemical processes natural diamonds go through. It just happens in a machine rather than on the earth.

For this reason, diamonds that are grown in a lab are chemically and physically identical to mined diamonds. You can't tell the difference to look at them either. 

Lab diamonds start life as a seed. It then undergoes the process of making it into the beautiful stone we know and love. Due to the artificial process, the seed goes through, diamonds made in a lab are often referred to as synthetic diamonds.

How Are Lab Diamonds Graded?

Artificial diamonds are also graded in precisely the same way as mined diamonds. They are cut by experts and graded using the same quality criteria as mined diamonds. 

They are rated using the 4 C's: 

• Carat
• Cut 
• Color 
• Clarity 

You would not be able to tell the difference between a mined diamond and a man-made one if you just looked at them. 

Why Are Synthetic Diamonds the Future?

Diamond mining is notorious for being unsustainable, unethical, linked to child labor, as well as war and conflicts. Although the diamond industry has been cleaned up since the Kimberly Process Certification was introduced in 2003, it is sometimes difficult to trace a diamond's origin.  

Many diamond dealers still can't tell you which mine their diamonds originate from. The Kimberly Process is hard to monitor, and many clean diamonds end up in the same shipments as those from less ethical origins. 

If a diamond is grown in a lab, it is easy to trace and harms nobody. Let's take a more in-depth look at why consumers are starting to choose man-made diamonds. 

They Are More Ethical

Even if a diamond claims to be conflict-free and not used to fund corrupt governments and warfare, we can never be entirely sure.

You also don't know if the workers who mine your natural diamond are paid fairly or treated humanely. Many countries where diamonds naturally occur don't have laws to ban child labor or enforce strict minimum wage or labor safety requirements. 

Ethical diamonds are having a moment, and we won't ever go back to the dark days of unethical diamond extraction. 

They Are More Environmentally Friendly 

Mining diamonds also have a significant impact on the natural environment. Digging up the earth to extract a stone is not the most sustainable of practices after all. Hundreds of tonnes of earth need to move to find just one diamond. 

This messes with local ecosystems and can end up displacing wildlife and communities. Local water sources can also end up polluted as a result of diamond mining. Minerals unearthed when the rocks are moved can run off into the water, causing it to become toxic. 

The air miles that a mined diamond costs are also huge. They fly from origin to middle man, to cuter, to trader. 

A lab grown diamond can be made in a few days and sold in the same city it is created. Further to this, a lot less energy is needed to create an artificial diamond. Thus, lab grown diamonds have a significantly lower carbon footprint. 

Artificial Diamonds Are Less Expensive

Lab grown diamonds have the same properties and high quality as mined diamonds but a lower price tag. 

Mined diamonds pass through many hands on their way to the store; each person involved takes a cut of the final price.

There are fewer people involved in creating a lab grown diamond which means fewer people who need paying. This, in turn, lowers the price for the end consumer. 

Diamond Jewelry Is Always In Fashion 

Ever since the 1940s, when diamonds became the height of fashion, they have been a staple in our jewelry boxes. We will continue to collect precious jewels for decades to come. They will be different from the jewels of the past. 

Want to make a statement with your outfit? Say it with diamonds. Want to give a gift that lasts an eternity? Diamonds are perfect. They last indefinitely and are a symbol of class.

Diamonds are also the most popular gemstone used for engagement rings. This stunning stone has represented love for centuries. 

Conscious Consumers Prefer Lab Diamonds 

You don't want your beautiful diamond to have a shady past, do you? Unethical practices and dubious origins are not what this stone should represent. For this reason, lab grown diamonds are the future. 

As consumer demands shift towards more transparent supply chains and the accountability of manufacturers, we need a change in the way goods are produced.

If you end up getting a strapless dress, you'll want to adjust your necklace to a shorter necklace length, stopping above where your dress bustline starts. A V-Neckline or scoop neck will allow for a bit of a longer length. When wearing a high neckline, a longer length helps add detail to elongate your torso. 

As you can see, this necklace works with any neckline and dress style. It comes in different varieties, from a simple thin chain when you want to keep a look clean, to chain-linked and stone-encrusted options. Add this necklace to your jewelry box for that go-to item that never disappoints.

Are you looking for classy jewelry that's a bit different from what everyone else is wearing? Here are 8 pieces of unique silver jewelry to help you stand out.

Keyword(s): unique silver jewelry

First impressions matter. When people first meet you, they instantly make certain judgments about you, including your status, personality, and even orientation.

Your overall appearance can help form that image. If you want to get noticed, wearing unique silver jewelry can help you.

If it catches people's attention, they'll be likely to pay you compliments and ask questions about it, which means' they'll be more likely to remember you. This can often be a way to start friendships.

In this article, we'll show you eight pieces of jewelry that are like nothing else you've ever seen.

Our Favorite Pieces of Unique Silver Jewelry

These pieces can't be found in just any old store. Add some of these to your outfits for a look that's your own.

1. Mystic Quartz Earrings

Mystic quartz is a stunning gem because it creates colors that no other precious stone can. Its gorgeous, kaleidoscopic appearance has been likened to oil on water.

No matter how you wear it, it's sure to turn heads, but we recommend a pair of sterling silver mystic quartz earrings. They're overlaid with rhodium, which means they have an even richer color.

When these earrings catch the light, they'll reflect shades of green, blue, and pink, changing every time you move. Show them off by wearing them with your hair in an updo, and you're sure to turn heads.

2. An Amber Necklace

Amber is interesting because of its rich history. It takes millions of years just to create one piece of amber, and it's formation has resulted in the discovery of several extinct species.

As well as being fun to learn about, it's also beautiful to look at. That's why it's such a popular gem for unique silver jewelry. One such piece is our tassel style honey amber necklace.

A lot of amber jewelry is rather chunky, but this piece has a more subtle appearance. Three leaf-shaped gems dangle from a delicate silver snake chain, like feathers hanging from a dreamcatcher.

If you really like it, you could even combine it with a pair of matching earrings.

3. A Marcasite Bracelet

Marcasite was Queen Victoria's gemstone of choice when she was in periods of mourning. During her reign, it became popular for elegant silver pieces that could be combined with pearls.

One piece that embodies this combination is our marcasite and mother of pearl flower bracelet.

The UK isn't the only place that marcasite has a history in. It's also been seen in Incan temples, and in ancient Greece, too.

Whether you want to give its admirers a history lesson or not, you can really make a statement with marcasite jewelry.

4. A Laurel Leaf Ring

You can never have enough rings, and our Laurel Leaf ring would make a beautiful addition to any collection.

This delicately-crafted piece consists of a thin band with detailed leaves to decorate your digits. It would make a suitable gift for a nature lover, but anyone can rock it. Layer it up with some other rings for a boho-chic look.

5. A Kaleidoscope Necklace

Our kaleidoscope necklace is made of ancient Roman glass. At 2.5 inches in diameter, it's certainly a statement piece.

The glass used in this necklace is 2000 years old and has been excavated from Israel to be set in fine sterling silver. Pieces like this one are commonly kept as heirlooms.

Add this to your outfit, and you'll be sure to receive lots of compliments. There's no way this pendant can go unnoticed.

6. A Balinese Pendant

Balinese jewelry is like no other type of silver jewelry in the world. It generally doesn't contain gemstones, but it doesn't need to. Its unique style of craftsmanship is intricate, eye-catching, and instantly recognizable.

Bali is home to some of the best silversmiths in the world, so we couldn't go without mentioning some jewelry from this little island. This kind of jewelry is often inspired by Earth and nature, which is part of what makes it so beautiful.

Instead of engraving silver, Balinese jewelers traditionally use techniques like filigree. This involves using beads soldered together with threads of metal to create patterns.

This can be seen in our favorite Balinese piece, which is the David Beck Filigree Pendant. It has filigree detail on the front and back, crafted to imitate the appearance of bamboo.

7. Pearl Earrings

Pearl earrings are a classic, and many say that every woman should own a pair. For that reason, they're not the first thing that springs to mind when you think of unique silver jewelry.

Pearl earrings may not sound unique, but if you pick the right pair, they can be the perfect mixture of vintage class and individuality. Our branched dangle earrings are just that.

Each earring combines two 1-inch pearls with swooping silver curves. From afar, they give the appearance of dewdrops balancing delicately from tree branches. It's a modern take on a classic and can be paired with almost any outfit.

If plain old pearls aren't quite enough for you, you may love these.

8. A Green Amber Leaf Pendant

We've already spoken about how great amber jewelry can be, but the last piece of unique silver jewelry on our list takes the cake. It's a green amber pendant with leaf detail.

It consists of an oval-shaped deep green piece of Baltic amber, set in tiny silver leaves. Together, they hang from a chain with a delicate clasp.

The outer edges of the amber used in this piece are very dark green, but towards the center, there are alluring flickers of lighter shades.

Stay Shining

Once you've decided which gorgeous pieces of jewelry to purchase, you'll have to make sure you take good care it. That way, it will remain just as stunning for years to come.

If you don't follow the proper care instructions, silver jewelry can become dull and dark. Polish it regularly with a special cloth, and if that's not enough, use cleaning solutions.
