Diamante Teardrop Earrings
Delicate Teardrop Earrings Earring Jewellery varies considerably, from the strong and chunky to the small and delicate. This pair of glass earrings is somewhere in between. The long glass dangles are enhanced by a crystal rondelle adding sparkle.
These romantic style earrings are suitable to be worn on formal occasions or for a special night out. Earrings such as these make any evening dress look more glamorous. Allow the earrings to shine through by down playing your eye makeup to soft shades and add a matching soft shade lipstick. This gives an ingenue feel to your killer outfit. The rhinestone rondelle between the teardops adds a slight touch of bling without being overpowering, adding to the ladylike ambiance of the earrings.
The earrings would be equally as suitable for a bride or bridesmaids. The glass beads add an air of the virginal while the rhinestones add an air of drama. Our sister website rayclif.com offers more details on this beautiful earring.
Use Jewellery to stretch your Fashion Budget
Being Fashion Conscious does not mean that you need to break your budget. Obviously your outfits make a massive difference to whether you feel not only in or out of fashion, but also comfortable! We suggest selecting quality pieces that suit your style and you feel comfortable, this includes statement pieces but also pieces that will reflect but transcend the vagaries of fashion itself.
Statement jewellery is often a little more adventurous than your day to day selection, but it does allow you to revel in colours, shapes and perhaps a level of bling that you would not usually go for. Do not overdo the statement jewellery. If you drape it over every part of you that can hold jewellery chances are you will feel uncomfortable and perhaps like one of the mall ads for 26 jewellery outlets in one cool destination! By limiting the statements to a single piece you will attract attention to it and create comments and fashion envy easily. If you wear a lot of statement jewellery the effect will be difused.
The easiest statement jewellery are chandelier earrings – do they ever go out of style? We don’t think so. Not only can you purchase statement earrings at a relatively small price, but they instantly bring with them a glamourous, feminine feeling that you just can’t compare. Think how you feel when your earrings are swaying reflecting your walking motion.
Chandelier earrings are great for both day and night time wear – consider those with a little bling for the evening. Lets be honest – earrings have to be one of the easiest of the jewellery pieces to pop on – you can even do it on the bus or train!
Now that it is spring in the Northern Hemisphere (and Autumn down under!) the colours of the season will be showing themselves all over the fashion walk ways. Softer, more muted colours seem to be the order of the day – I heard someone explaining that this is due to a gradual improvement in the world’s financial markets – nothing too dramatic! I guess it could explain it!
Watch out too for the off the shoulder fashions. Necklaces are notoriously hard to pair with these types of necklines, so use your earrings to your best advantage.
A last comment – don’t hide your jewellery until it is evening, wear it proudly during the warm light of day, jeans and heels can be brought to life with a single (not necessarily expensive) piece of jewellery.

Colour and Fashion Costume Jewellery – Think Pink Earrings
Pantone have released their new 2010 Spring Fashion Colour Report - these reports are great. Check out their ideas of the colours for Spring. Fashion Costume jewellery of course must follow the trends of the Fashion Industry and this seasons colours are super. As Adam Lippes is quoted in this report : “I think customers want special and unique now more than ever. And they want to see good value”. So lets have a look at one of the Spring Colours as recommended in the Pantone report and see what we can find in our earring collection.
Champagne Pink is the colour I have chosen for this article. The old adage of Thinking Pink still applies today – it can be girly and it can also be sophisticated and everything in between.
First cab off the rank are the earrings – no self respecting person is dressed without earrings! The first pair on the left are so pretty without being kitch. The cloissonne beads add interest and movement while the Swarovski crystal inset in the gold fitting adds brilliance and defines the whole piece. This is a limited release earring at only $12.50 – what did Adam Lippes say about value! Aquire your earrings here.
For those who prefer a silver setting, what about our second pair?
Lovely delicate pink beads adorn the chandelier fitting (again complete with the Swarovski crystal centre). a very different look for day or evening. Purchase your pair here.
The first two earrings are beautiful and sensual, with elegance and taste written all over them – ideal for day or evening wear.
For something quite different, this time in Bronze accents, large but still with the feel of the Champagne Pink, what about these chandelier earrings? I love them, the Boho feel is amazing and they are different and trendy.
They measure 6cm from the top of the hook to the bottom of the base bead so are certainly an example of large jewellery, but they do not look clunky when worn. More details can be found here.
Each of the earrings we have featured here are very different and very Pink! Which pair do you prefer?
Chandelier Earrings
The basic definition of a chandelier earring is that the earring must have more than one drop of components, preferably three or more. Earring jewellery is quite diverse when looking at fashion costume jewellery. Let us explore sopme of the styles available.
Boho or Bohemian style jewellery is generally considered to be large with a large number of beads. The silver chandelier earrings shown to the left are a good example of this form. Although the fitting is in this case silver, it is not uncommon for the fitting to be bronze.
The chandellier form is oval and the beads hang like crystals on a chandelier. many Boho styles incorporate more than one colour – often autumn colours, like the almost identical pair on the right.
Shoulder dusters are extremely long chandelier earrings. They stretch from your ear lobe to at least your shoulders and are a form often worn by celebrities (being very popular in music videos). The shoulder duster is an extremely theatrical form of fashion costume jewellery earrings.
Classic chandelier earrings take many forms. They tend to be structured, often using rhinestones and are often no longer than level with your chin. An example of the classic chandelier earring is shown on the right. This earring jewellery uses glass pearls or fire polish crystal (really rather sparkling glass) to create a style to go with refined, special occasion fashions. It is interesting to see the difference that the bead makes on the chandelier earring – contrast the fire polish beads on the left to the glass pear earrings out model Sarah is wearing on the right.

Beaded earrings are often made in the chandelier fashion. Beads move gracefully on the chandelier fittings and are available in infinite colour combinations.
