Earrings are Back

Earrings are backEarrings are back, conspicuous, obvious and framing your face. In the past few years status bags and towering heels have taken all our attention, but in this world of recovering economic turmoil, earrings are the ultimate accessory that gives the most versatility and freedom.

Don’t make apologies for wearing outrageous earrings, accept and applaud yourself for being so “out there”. Draw back your hair or even have it cut off and allow your earrings to be on show not hiding behind loose tendrils of hair. Really long shoulder dusters can of course, look great appearing from behind your hair line.

If you are wearing big, exotic earrings leave attention on your face and avoid wearing an equally outrageous fashion necklace. In fact, leave off the necklace entirely! Wasn’t it Coco Chanel who suggested that before you exit your house, take off one piece of jewellery? If you need more jewellery (and who doesn’t?) consider dress rings or bracelets.

Colour? Choose carefully and wear the colour that suits your complexion. Light from the earrings will shine back into your face. You might match the earrings to the colour of your outfit or choose something with extreme contrast just to shock. It is great fun to change your habits just for a day here and there – enjoy!

Price? Fashion Costume Jewellery varies so much but remember it is fashion and trends pass frequently, so look for reasonably priced but limited edition earrings. Best if everyone isn’t wearing them! Above all, celebrate who you are and show the world that you are magnificent.
