Costume jewellery comes in many different styles, shapes and colours, but the main choice for anyone when it comes to costume jewellery is whether you want silver costume jewellery or gold costume jewellery.
Silver costume jewellery is a very versatile style as it can suit anyone and can go with just about any piece of clothing in your wardrobe. Silver costume jewellery encrusted with Swarovski crystals, whatever colour the crystal are, can really make your work outfit look fabulous. Or keep your jewellery in your purse, and wear in the evening to turn your outfit in to something spectacular for after work drinks.
Gold costume jewellery on the other hand can be fabulous as wedding/bridal jewellery. It’s a traditional piece of jewellery that can really make your outfit look gorgeous. Gold is also a great colour to wear to a ball or Christmas party as it will sparkle more than silver costume jewellery, and if you normally wear silver jewellery you will really stand out in a crowd if you change to gold costume jewellery.
Whether you wear gold or silver costume jewellery, it does come to personal style at the end of the day, so wear it with style whatever you wear!

This coming Spring/Summer 2010 is all about pastel colours as we have seen from the recent awards ceremonies like the Grammys and the Golden Globes. And so it got us thinking, what type of costume jewellery would you wear with such colours? Colours like white, very light pinks and blues and greens were all the rage on the red carpet.
Well the most obvious choice would be clear crystal costume jewellery. Costume jewellery that is purely crystals and does not have AB crystals or anything similar on it. Although even costume jewellery with AB crystals would look fabulous as well as it may have a hint of blue or pink in the crystal and therefore look fabulous against your pastel coloured dress.
Or you could go for pastel coloured costume jewellery like pink chandelier earrings or blue chandelier earrings.

The sad and tragic news that Lee McQueen the founder of Alexander McQueen clothing, shoes and fashion and costume jewellery was found dead in his apartment in London has hit the headlines today. The cause of his death is unknown, and his family and friends have asked for privacy whilst they deal with this tragic news.
Not long ago McQueen’s mother died and a lot of people were suggesting that it hit him hard. Also pressures to create and surpass his last few shows also seem to have had an impact on his mood. He is however undeniably at the forefront of British fashion, and although he never actually created pieces or costume jewellery or shoes specifically for celebrities, he did have many celebrities flock to him to make them bespoke pieces, like Lady GaGa’s recent lobster claw shoes in her Bad Romance video.
Whatever the future of the McQueen Empire holds, it will be sure to stay in the forefront of fashion and of costume jewellery, and he will be sorely missed amongst the fashion community as a true inspiration in the field.
