Fashion Costume Jewellery Bracelets
August 23rd, 2009 | 
Author: Bracelets have been an almost forgotten part of the costume jewellery scene for many years, but the advent of the event jewellery fad has changed all that. Now the fashion costume jewellery bracelet is a booming fashion industry icon with women all over the world sporting bracelets that are the envy of all. Companies such as Pandora, Chamilia and Troll have started the world back on track for luscious, colourful beaded bracelets that are flexible enough to work with every fashion trend and every occasion. Interchangeable beads and charms make these fashion costume jewellery bracelets so flexible that a small stash of beads mean every person has a new piece of fashion jewellery for every outfit. Charms Jewellery is now back in fashion.
We have seen a slightly new take on these bracelets with the introduction from Rayclif of the silver ban
gle bracelet again with the interchangeable beads. One end of this well priced bracelet screws off to allow new beads to be added or the order changed. Comfortable to wear and no awkward clasp to do up, these are a great choice. The best of fashion costume jewellery like this is that the pieces can be worn with so many different outfits simply by changing the contents.
Of course, the more traditional fitted snake bracelet with clasp is still available; like the lobster clasps. These are great and we are all used to pushing the lever and releasing it over the tag or ring to hold the bracelet closed. The popular brands have also made the push clasp popular too – check out the picture on the right for an example (the mechanism of the bracelet clasp is also shown here).
The fashion costume jewellery bracelets need not cost thousands so for a reasonable price you can display your bead and charm jewellery on your wrist and then change them around into necklaces.
Versatility is the key and this form of charm jewellery is perfect for mixing and matching your fashion outfits and creating your own fashion costume jewellery bracelets and necklaces.

Expressing our personal style and interacting appropriately with our fashion wardrobe is important. Fashion costume jewellery allows us to do so without breaking the bank or feeling guilty!
This time, let’s talk about costume jewellery rings. Consider the clothing you wear each and every day for every occasion and think about how we can coordinate our costume jewellery rings.
Hand made glass rings
Let’s start with your own time, are you wearing casual clothing – off to the shops or mall, out for coffee with a friend? Well, have we got just the thing for you – beautiful bright and can I say glitzy? The glass costume jewellery rings you see here are wonderful for brightening your day. The three colours in each ring allow you to coordinate or contrast with your clothing. Glass is such a winner, unless you drop it onto a hard surface or throw it against the wall, it will not break so your investment is secure for a long period of time (or until you get fed up with it!). The sheer beauty of these rings is that they are obvious – your friends and onlookers will be jealous of your jewellery.
Purple dichroic glass ring
Going to work and business meetings is a little different, you need your jewellery to be a little more conservative just like your clothing. So what rings do we suggest? You still need to feel good and look good without being over done. Check out the photograph of our resizable rings – these are a cool dichroic glass design with the cabochon being 10mm square. Dainty but colourful, bright without being glitzy, tidy without being boring. The resizable rings come in a gift box – so there is no need to worry about how to store and keep your ring free from tarnish.
This ring could take you through your work day and into the night.
Cubic Zirconia Ring
Costume jewellery should not necessarily be expensive but that does not mean it need not be really nice. 14K gold filled and sterling silver rings are available at under $100 and are stunning for special occasions. Rings are always visible and a special ring (I think) is a subconscious trigger to moving your hands more gracefully. What about the pictured 14K gold filled ring – this one has a 6mm tangerine coloured Cubic Zirconia stone, the stones are available in a number of colours so if the tangerine is a little loud for day wear a subdued blue or green may be more appropriate.
Now you can see what we mean by costume jewellery – jewellery that is appropriate to your “costume” or outfit whatever that may be – so why should our jewellery not be fashionable too?
