Bridal jewellery is the ultimate costume jewellery. You have to get your bridal jewellery right to really finish off the fabulous outfit you are wearing. So what is new when it comes to bridal jewellery you ask as you do want to stay in style whilst looking elegant?
As far as bridal jewellery goes why not take some inspiration from what we have seen on the catwalks and the red carpet. There seems to be prevalence on smaller, statement pieces. Like small crystal earrings, or a cuff bracelet with a cocktail ring.
Other new pieces in bridal jewellery comes in the form of hair accessories. SO the trend at the moment is to wear crystal headbands or crystal hair slides. And Armbands are really fashionable too.

Well one of the most glamorous events of 2010 has come and gone and we all got to see our favourite celebrities on the red carpet. And they all looked so stunning and beautiful in their costume jewellery and ball gowns.
The stars looked amazing in their stunning couture gowns. And their jewellery was even more beautiful and sparkly, but very different to last year. Last year we saw very much that statement costume jewellery was what the celebrities wore. But this year we see more understated costume jewellery like crystal earrings and a crystal bracelet or maybe just chandelier earrings and a cocktail ring.
We saw Jennifer Lopez wearing crystal studs, and Shefaly has the Swarovski crystal earrings which are very much alike. Also our very own Carey Mulligan was seen wear crystal chandelier earrings, and we have a pair like these for a fraction of the cost, the crystal circle falls earrings or the crystal bow earrings.

A diamante is defined by Wiktionary as “an artificial diamond used as adornment, such as a rhinestone”. It’s different to a Swarovski or Austrian crystal or cubic zircon because it doesn’t shine as much and is normally smaller in size. For this reason a lot of brides chose diamante wedding jewellery as their costume jewellery of choice for their big day.
Diamante costume jewellery can come in many different designs whether it is diamante earrings, diamante bracelet or diamante necklace and earring sets. It looks just as fabulous as Swarovski crystal costume jewellery or vintage crystal costume jewellery. It just depends on what your own personal style is when it comes to costume jewellery.
