Autumn winter trends to match your costume jewellery

By now im sure you have amassed a whole lot of costume jewellery to match every conceivable item of clothing you have in your wardrobe. When new seasons come about, you need to make sure that you use the costume jewellery thats already in your jewellery box, rather than buy a whole lot of new jewellery – that just doesnt make financial sense girls! So what about this coming Autumn/Winter 2010? Whats going to be in fashion and what costume jewellery should you match to it?

Well a key trend for next season is the sheepskin Aviator jacket thanks to the likes of Burberry Prorsum. Its Glamorous and practical, so you can wear to on an evening out or with your favourite pair of jeans. Pair this up with a statement cocktail ring and a Rock chick bracelet and you are good to go!Most of the designers this season also seem to be in love with velvet. Wear stunning chandelier earrings and cocktail rings to really finish this look off.

If you have any ideas as to how to wear this seasons key looks with costume jewellery, let our readers know below.

Costume jewellery is defined as jewellery that is made from  inexpensive metals and imitation or semi precious stones. Inexpensive or non precious metals include materials such as gold plating, silver plating, wood, leather and beads. Costume jewellery is not made from gold, silver, cultured pearls. However Swarovski Crystal jewellery is classed as costume jewellery.

Costume jewellery comes in many different styles, shapes and colours. But costume jewellery generally comes in two types of platings, silver or gold. So how do you know if you should go for silver costume jewellery or gold costume jewellery?

You main way of choosing whether you should go for silver costume jewellery or gold costume jewellery is what outfit you are trying to match your outfit jewellery with. So if your outfit has a lot of silver embellishments on it then go for silver costume jewellery. If however it has a lot of gold on it go for gold costume jewellery.

Or, just go with what you like and generally wear, like me, I love silver, so I wear silver costume jewellery more or less all the time!

Silver Costume Jewellery

Costume jewellery comes in many colours, styles and finishes. These range from colourful reds, pinks and amber blues, to antique, silver and gold.

Out of all of these, the most popular is the crystal costume Jewellery. This is because, originally the name costume jewellery was given to bright and bold pieces, today that is now regarded mainly as silver costume jewellery. People who wear this range from an ever growing amount, formally it was simply extravagant, rich and excentric individuals. Today, as it is more common, it is brides, bridesmaids, girls on a night out, or just a piece of subtle jewellery for work! Brides wear it as part of their outfit such as a crystal brooch, or crystal bangle, or even a statement necklace or statement earrings. Bridesmaids benefit from the colour approach, and this can match the dress, such as baby pink or light blue.

Silver costume jewellery is fashionable, and even classifies as fashion jewellery in today’s high street. Large companies such as Swarovski have truly revolutionised this industry, and allowed the extravagant jewellery acceptable and marketable to the everyday lady alike.

Sexy Costume Jewellery

Lingerie has its place for alluring your man, whether it be in the bedroom, or showing a bid of that bra strap in a bar! But costume jewellery has its place in this scene, except many woman fail to exploit this.

For example, when you’re dressed up in the bedroom, with your hair all in tumbling curls, and that devilish outfit, finish off this perfect look with a delicate costume jewellery set and light, dainty earrings. These are the ultimate night time jewellery, before its really time for bed.

As for the bar, and showing that guy your interested in, don’t just draw his attention to your bra strap or the off the shoulder look, try one of those jewelled bra straps  or chandelier earrings for the attention grabbing look!

We love jewellery from www.madaboutjewellery.com, as well as from our site, www.shefaly.co.uk.

Pastel coloured costume jewellery or next season

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.
