Unique Indian Jewelry

Necklace

Like people enjoy learning about various cultures and the variations, I enjoy seeing the different jewelry that people I different cultures wear. Look at this beautiful necklace and dangling earrings set with peridot in yellow gold. This set also includes ‘Tika’, an ornament that is worn on the head delicately dangling on the forehead. The design is typically Indian.

I loved the intricate craftsmanship. This design is reminiscent of the ancient Indian royal jewelry. the ‘Maharajas’ and ‘Maharini’s’ of ancient India wore such elaborate jewelry with intricate designs. I loved the design and think it would make perfect bridal jewelry for a bride as beautiful and special.

Women Without Jewelry

ash_445x340

Women without jewelry... the expression is like night without stars, garden without flowers… wow that was poetic! No, but seriously why is jewelry so synonymous with women or why is essential for her existence?

My curiosity got the better of me and like a research student I started my expedition to find the eternal truth. After talking to a hundred women and exploring the Internet these are the findings of my research - eternal answer to the eternal question.

For woman jewelry is more than just fashion. Most of the times jewelry is a story – your grand dad got this necklace for me on out honeymoon, my parents presented me this pendant when I graduated from collage, my first earrings, my husband’s surprise, and the tale goes on.

Invariably jewelry is an expression of self for women. So there are designs that are bold, simple, sophisticated, dainty, pretty, elaborate, funky, fun, classy, flashy, subtle, elegant, girly, orthodox, classic, stylish and every kind that you can possibly imagine a woman can be.

And one of the most important reasons why women love jewelry – jewelry makes women feel beautiful… from inside. So with so compelling reasons can you still imagine a woman without jewelry

What age group buys the most jewels


tt0124954

There are some things that have no bars whatsoever and buying jewelry is one of them. There really is no age limit to buying jewelry but since otherwise marketers will be out of job, here is an analysis into the demographics of jewelry purchasing.

A woman starts wearing jewelry since she is a toddler, but that’s not when she starts buying jewelry herself. She gets those generous gifts from parents and close family. By the time she starts being selective of what jewelry she wears she is a teenager. That is also the time when she starts purchasing her jewelry. A teenage girl is fashion conscious and very particular about what she wears. She also loves to change her jewelry with her dresses. And this is also the time when she starts receiving gifts from friends. These gifts usually include flowers, chocolates, music items and so on but in some cases these also consist of jewelry. Interestingly even teenage boys get hooked to jewelry, usually the funky and hip kinds. But the thing to be noted here is almost all the jewelry purchased at this age is fashion jewelry. These kids who survive on their pocket money can not afford fine jewelry as simple as that.

Fashion in WEDDING


73418616 jaymanueloscars225

Style and silhouette will rule this year, with long flowing dresses in silks and chiffons. A truly feminine look is in, and it's a good time to indulge in slinky dresses to make heads turn. Interesting necklines are surely in, to add an element of interest to an outfit. Yellow is one color that's surely going to take a forefront in different palletes, so you can choose one that suits your taste.

Sapphire jewelry to match your mood



No, this isn’t crazy. You can actually have your jewelry speak your mind. Check out how my jewelry expresses my moods.

When I am cheerful I prefer dangling earrings in dark blue sapphire with diamond accents or white sapphires. The pretty earrings brighten up my fac

e and bring more radiance to my smile. I wear light makeup to let the earrings be the focus.

Blue Sapphire Earrings copy
For a sophisticated look I prefer sapphires and white diamonds. I think nothing matches luxury better. Days when I feel like not dressing up at all sapphire studs do justice to my subtly elegant look.

So don’t just wear jewelry to match your dress, try and match your jewelry to your mood also. You’ll see the magic it does to your overall look.

DO IT THE OSCAR STYLE


clip_image028Let’s have a look at this year’s Oscar trends. Statement pieces were the key trends at Oscar red carpet this year .Only a few went overboard and wore heavy jewelry. Most of them opted for statement pieces like wristclip_image002 cuffs, necklaces, rings etc. to look glamorous without being overdone.

Silver seemed to be the front runner this year. It took over gold completely. Most of the Celebs opted for it allowing most of you to go for a nice look by paying a fraction of the price.

clip_image006The message at this year’s Oscar was very clear. Keep it simple and classy. It will make you look graceful. Wear either a bracelet or a necklace but don’t wear them together. Don’t overdo anything. Being classy is the new mantra. From Kate Winslett to Taraji P Henson all kept it simple. Winslettclip_image004 went for elegant bracelets with diamond rings while Taraji went for a stunning diamond cuff style necklace. Freida Pinto’s diamond drop earrings were vintage pieces from her native India. Gone are the days when celebrities only focused on the clothes they wore at the Oscars. Jewelry has clip_image008become the new center of attraction. One celebrity who created rage as always is Angelina Jolie . What she wore was a simple strapless black gown but the jewelry is what got all the attention. She appeared without any necklace or bracelets. She chose to wear large vibrant emerald drops complementing it with a matching emerald ring, looking absolutely marvelous and stunning. clip_image018

clip_image012

A few celebrities went wrong too. For instance take Heidi Klum. She wore multiple bracelets with large earrings, completely overdoing it, which is a complete no no!!!! Among the male celebrities no bracelets were noticed. Except Mickey Rourke and a few others no male celebritiy wore any jewellery other than the usual cuff links. Pitt showed off some fancy metallic buttons on his shirt. Rourke flaunted a pendant around his neck bearing a photo of hisclip_image014 deceased pet Loki the Chihuahua. A few others wore a simple silver brooch on their tuxedo lapels.

It’s clear from the Oscar this year that jewellery is the center of attraction now. So those who are going for the Oscar style should remember simplicity is the style statement. Don’t overdo it.
