Thursday, September 17th, 2009

Everyday routine wear can be anything from formal, casual to chunky wear. This is absolutely a personal style and as a variant one can always be creative. Nothing is a labeled style when it comes to accessories. The beady necklace or beach trinket can also be used for spring wear collection and looks perfect with a flare skirt and an off shoulder top.

 

Matching jewelry is not really in vogue. Like you could have a brown or rust gown and choose some emeralds or green stones to go along with the same. Watches or swatches are again forming a part of jewelry with so many styles and ethnic encryptions. Indian traditional jewelry comes in full swing with the festivities round the corner. Simple glass bangles, gold chokers or a plain bracelet is much about the spirit of Navratri or Diwali.

 

This year one has still seen a retro look in terms of employing traditional patterns in gold or silverware. If necklaces are your weakpoint, then choose one which has a unique design or go in for a fusion trend which has the mix of western designs on the Indian bend of gold.

 

Regal or royal sheen is captured in the kundan or pearl collection. Use grey or black pearls to sing a different tune. Gowns for parties are about slick jewelry. These can be the gold pattern with a leaf or simple pendant. Take hints from the rainbow and go in search of a unique stone studded neckpiece and earring set.

 

Finally go in for the college girl look with the chunky beady stuff competes with long chains, nose studs, fake tattoos and also the fingerings. Solitaire and silver bracelet for the girls going for a prom night and also simple acrylic finishes and plastic hoops for causal wear.

Jewellery Maintenance

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

Women love buying jewellery but maintaining them is a task for them. We will give you a few tips on easy maintenance of your jewellery.  

Silver and 14 K gold jewellery are likely to lose their colour over time. To protect your silver and gold jewellery store those in air tight or zip lock bags. This will avoid them from tainting or atleast it will slow down the process. Whenever you want to clean your jewellery use a polishing duster or cloth.

For stones and crystal jewellery again, use zip lock bags. Keep in mind that you should not clean turquoise and freshwater pearls with jewellery cleaning solutions.  Avoid wearing jewellery when bathing. Also, ointments and perfumes can taint your gems, so be cautious.

Diamonds, a girl’s best friend, are very easy to maintain as well. Avoid keeping diamonds together as they can bump against each other and chip. Use soap and water to clean them because dust can make them lose their shine. Eliminate dirt from diamonds’ crevices by frequently brushing with a used toothbrush with soft bristles. 

Pearls should be taken good care of to keep their polish. They should be stored in a soft cloth so that they don’t come in contact with other jewellery. Avoid their contact with harmful substances like hairspray, perfumes and other cosmetics which could discolour them.

Never clean pearls with any kind of solvent. Dab your pearls with a soft cloth after you have used them. A fabric like the one you use to clean spectacles is a good option. Experts advise that pearls must be restrung every few years, as strings can wear out and crack if not preserved.

Jewellery is usually not taken care of after use. This spoils them and makes them unavailable for reuse. Jewellery adds to the beauty of women and it is important to preserve them with care.

Get going for your D-day now

Three months to go for your wedding day and you are nervous about managing and looking your best. Here are some of the tips you can try: Treat yourself to a monthly facial at a parlour. If you do not want to go and spend a bomb, try a deep clean face mask. You can try the orange peel off mask that is supposedly good for all skin types. Do not worry and invite stress if your face gets a few spots. It is your body’s way of getting rid of the impurities.

Chipped skin and dirty feet? Start taking care of your feet months in advance. Go for regular pedicures. Clean them and scrub them regularly on weekends. To get rid of the rough dead skin, moisturize them with a feet moisturizer every night.

Same goes for the hands as well. Massage in a cuticle cream every night. For people who complain or weak and easy brittle nails, start applying nail strengthener regularly. Also, scrub your nails and moisturize them before going off to sleep. 

Giving attention to face, hands and legs is not enough. Use a natural bristle brush once a week to make your skin soft and supple. Follow this with a body lotion. Replace your tea and coffee with a glass of warm water and lemon. This will help your skin to look fresh and supple. Consult a nutritionist and eat right. Also, join a gym or exercise regularly to keep yourself fit.
