How to Match Jewellery

Hey fashionistas, it's Shay again answering all of your wonderful dilemmas. Today's dilemma is how you actually match accessories and jewellery with the fabulous dress and the shoes once you got those two together.

So I'm going to give you some ideas and some tips that you can possibly run and play with just as some options that you may be able to actually use. Right here beside me I have my fabulous trusty mannequin. I'm going to actually put her in a black dress I'm keeping it very light and simple.

Now some of you fashionistas may have issues in regards to floral dresses red dresses or blue ones but the overall premise is always the same. Nine times out of 10 the jewellery should always match the actual dress that you are wearing, instead of your actual shoes. So this particular basic black dress that I have on I'm going to actually pair her with many different options for you, just so you can get a good idea.

Okay this fabulous solid gold necklace that I have here is not only black but it's also black with some silver rhinestones in the actual neckline of the dress, you have the necklace where it lays, notice that it has fabulous patterns as far as it being twisted which is another good benefit as well. You also want to make sure that whatever necklace you pair with the actual dress has other matching accessories.

So in this particular case that wonderful necklace has a wonderful really cute bracelet that you can wear with it as well that will look absolutely fabulous as far as those accessories go.

So it's a fabulous piece wonderful eye candy and you can also match it even further with some really cute earrings, so in other words you keep it very simple nothing too busy doesn't draw any major attention to the items but it still matches perfectly with the actual dress itself as well as the shoes.

Another good necklace that you can try on is this guy right here. This one is all black, once again mate it looks really cute very simple pretty straightforward classic piece, nothing too busy about it, keeps it pretty simple okay, just a basic black necklace.

If you want to take it up a notch you can always try some funky accessories to match your stuff that no one else probably would have thought of; i.e. the pieces that I'm actually wearing. Black is nowhere in the actual colour scheme however it will look absolutely fabulous with the dress as well. This necklace that I had on actually had three different shades of purple and silver in it, the dress doesn't have any of those colours anywhere in it, but notice that the dress still matches really well and then necklace adds that wonderful pop of colour that you need.

So sometimes it's something as simple as doing something like that and if you're a fashionista out there who is a daredevil you really want to try something really outrageous and interesting with your overall dress and shoes, you can always go for something that's really different. This particular necklace as you can see is black and silver but it's a quite a unique looking piece, because it not only accentuates the neck but it also travels all the way down to the actual bust line of the wearer and it has a wonderful matching bracelet that you can wear with the particular item, as well as really nice earrings that you can wear that are fabulous that bring the piece together.

So these accessories look really good when you have a dress already matched together as well as with the shoes. You don't want to get into the dilemma of where you're trying to find out what should I do because you already have the shoes in place along with the dress.

Just remember the main focal point in most cases is actually the dress, so once you have the dress, the shoes will probably come next and accessories need to play off of your actual item of clothing; which in this case is the actual dress. Hopefully I gave you some really good fashion tips with these particular jewellery accessories that you can possibly use, but I also have some other accessories that you can wear outside of actual jewellery pieces. That includes this fabulous belt that you can possibly wear around your waist that would look really nice in regards to putting it on with the actual dress and the shoes that you already have picked. I mean this is just the one that I have so you don't have to have an actual you know belt but if you choose to you can.

Just to play with it it actually turns the whole dress into a whole different look as you can see. You can also make it a little bit more edgier as well by doing some funky bracelets. Some of the ones that I have include this wonderful snap bracelet and which you probably have seen it on a clip of mine before. Absolutely love this bracelet and it's a real funky piece that you can possibly use as well, that will look really good and with this dress as well as any other dress that you may choose because it is sterling silver.

I also have this wonderful bracelet as well that is stretchy, so for all fashionistas you can actually wear this. It has wonderful loops where you can actually put the loop through and pick the actual size of the bracelet that you would actually like to wear. So that's another good one that you can wear with this dress as well as any other dress that you may have in your closet, just as an idea and it snaps on your wrist just like that. So hopefully those ideas are beneficial to you in regards of trying to find the perfect accessories to wear with their dress and those pair of shoes, but remember don't stress over it just make sure whatever accessories you decide to wear, look absolutely fabulous with your dress and the shoes will pop all on their own. It's your wonderful fashion stylist Shay giving you some advice thanks and have a fabulous day.

Necklaces and Necklines Styling Tips

When choosing a necklace to wear with a small pendant, make sure that the size of the necklace is in proportion to the pendant. Also you will find that a plain gold necklace will allow the pendant to be the feature, rather than the chain itself. You will notice how the necklace worn with the v-neck is in great proportion to the clustered diamond pendant and the pendant is the feature of this combination.

Hello I'm Rachel and I'm going to be giving you guys a little bit of advice about something that I've definitely had a few questions about over time which is what necklaces go well with what necklines.

So let's get started. All right let's start off with a crewneck top which is the one I'm wearing currently. It is a neckline that is curved and isn't like your higher neck stuff. When you have a crewneck or a curved neckline on your top you need to make sure that your necklace actually follows that line as well so I wouldn't have a v-shaped necklace. As you can see with this necklace it lays really nicely it's not up here looking a little bit awkward how the tassels are and stuff like that. You need to keep in mind as well also about how your necklace lays.

The next really simple neckline is the ‘V’ neck which is pretty self-explanatory it is a neckline in the shape of a V. What I was talking about with the crewneck and following the shape with the round neckline with a v-neck you also need to have a necklace that follows the V shape. So this is a perfect opportunity to wear a really simple necklace and it'll look really cute

.

Another thing you could do if you want something a bit more ‘statementy’ and less simple is you could wear a necklace like this. It also shows the v-shape and looks incredibly cute. Next is the high neckline like this top here. Now a high neckline is the perfect opportunity to be wearing a statement necklace. Statement necklaces are definitely one of my favourite things right now and they definitely add something a bit extra to the outfit.

The next one that I know a lot of people struggle with is the one-shoulder. Now for the one shoulder I'm going to tell you right now do not wear a necklace. Honestly it's just going to look awkward and adding a pair of statement earrings instead is so much more worthwhile. Now one thing I really want you guys to take away from this today is only have one statement accessory whether it's your neck lace, your earrings or a ring or even a headband. Only have one thing, I mean honestly even though I’m talking about necklaces in particular today, you don't have to have your necklace as your statement piece. So I have my statement earrings and I have a really simple bracelet and a ring instead of the necklace.

Next is the sweetheart neckline and in are you guys right now module at whoa that's not a sweetheart neckline. Okay it's the exact same rules as if you have straps or if you don’t. Have your sweetheart neckline is exactly the same as having a v-neck, the same rules apply to that, because there's still got the tiny little v-shape. I have once again have a very simple little necklace.

So with the roll neck I like to wear longer necklaces because I feel like if you wear shorter necklaces it's just going to look chunky and bulky because you've already got a lot going on up here so I would say definitely stick to longer necklaces. Next is the strapless neckline which is self-explanatory there's no straps going on here. So my favourite thing with a strapless is to wear a statement necklace with it with a rounded shape. When you've got a strapless neckline it's really important to know you have a decent gap between your necklace and your neckline so it's not looking awkward. Like what I talked about with like the tassels are making sure it lays flat and doesn't look awkward.

My other recommendation with a strapless neckline is; a longer style necklace because it always looked really really cute it's obviously not going to have any awkward situations and actually I'm going to have another recommendation as well. When you have a strapless dress make sure that you actually feel comfortable in it, it's not falling down you're not pulling it up all the time because it's not going to look really pretty. So when you wear a strapless dress make sure you feel comfortable in it you can absolutely just rock that dress.

Okay, second last is my favourite thing coloured button up shirts, so my favourite thing to do with them is definitely to have a cute little pendant peeking out through the collar. Another recommendation that I have is when you have silver buttons or trims or things like that on whatever it is you're wearing. Make sure that your accessories actually match because it's going to look awkward if you have gold buttons or something going down your shirt and then you have all silver accessories.

You want everything to match and for it to just look incredible. Last but certainly not least is the cut-out neckline. Now a cut-out neckline is definitely part of the statement of your outfit so there's no point in putting a necklace right next to it. It's not going to look very good. So like what I said with the one-shoulder dress wear maybe some statement earrings instead.

With this dress though it's definitely an incredibly bright colour it is the statement of my outfit so with this I am going to go with some really simple earrings and with the collared dress it's really important to think about also contrasting, like what I've done with this bracelet here. I hope this video has been helpful for maybe at least one of you guys and if you want me to do more videos like this in the future give me a thumbs up or comment below and don't forget to subscribe, bye. 

Silver Necklaces - Chains & Pendant Necklaces - Fraser Ross

Often you will hear people say that they are a ‘silver’ or ‘gold’ person. What they really mean is that they prefer the colour silver over the colour of yellow gold. A silver necklace is very close in colour to a white gold necklace, slightly less in weight and considerably less in cost.

The real reason the majority of people would choose a silver chain over a white gold chain is simply the expense. Most people couldn’t tell the difference just by looking at them and if the silver chain is well made, it will last just as long as a gold chain will.

Sterling silver and fine silver do however tarnish with time. This is actually a chemical reaction between the silver and sulphur compounds found in the air or even in perspiration. The reaction causes some of the silver to be converted into silver sulphide, and the colour of the silver becomes slightly yellowish. As the tarnish progresses further with time, the yellow colour darkens and eventually will become nearly black.

Fortunately, it is pretty simple to remove tarnish and restore the necklace or bracelet to looking brand new again. Tarnishing isn’t a ‘problem’ with the quality of the jewellery. The Queen has some magnificent silver and her staff have to polish and clean it regularly to remove and prevent tarnish. I’m sure that every piece of her silver is the best quality money can buy, so don’t blame tarnish on the jewellery, blame it on the metal itself.

We stock a wide range of sterling silver chains in many styles, all of which can be made to any length. This allows you to have the design of your choice made into a bracelet, anklet or silver necklace to the exact length that fits you perfectly.

In addition to our silver necklace chains, we have silver bracelets in all the same styles, so you can mix and match to create a matching set. Our sterling silver charm bracelets have been chosen for their open style links. These are typically long curb, cable and belcher chain styles, and the open links allow for easy fitting of the jump rings to hold your charms in place. The belcher chains are most suitable for charm bracelets, and the smaller width chains have more links than the larger width chains per inch. The more links, the more choices for attaching charms, and the B3 is our most popular chain for people who want a sterling silver charm bracelet.

With a range of over 4600 charms (and growing) order a number of charms and a silver bracelet and we will send you a beautiful silver charm bracelet made just for you and ready to wear. We are happy to offer the same service with our solid gold charms and gold bracelets.
