No mistakes
How to choose jewelry to suit? First of all, you should never forget about the format of the event you are going to, that is, you should remember the relevance of your choice. In addition, you will need to remember a few important rules:
- Moderation above all. The desire to wear "all the best at once" is often inherent in young girls. However, a lot - this does not mean beautiful. All jewelry can be divided into two types. The first is the one that goes “face to face”. These are earrings, necklaces, chains with pendants, beads, brooches. The second type is used to decorate hands; these are bracelets, rings, watches. For an everyday look, it is enough to use one piece of jewelry from the first and second groups. For example, wear earrings and a bracelet, or a chain and a ring. For the holiday, you can wear three decorations, but no more.
- When choosing jewelry fabric properties should be consideredfrom which the outfit is sewn. Thick models of winter can be combined with massive decorations. For light and flowing fabrics, elegant jewelry is more suitable.
- Harmony in everything. Decorations should match the style of the toilet and combine with each other. A pearl necklace in combination with a plastic bracelet would be ridiculous.
- For bright and catchy outfits, it is recommended to choose modest jewelry and vice versa.
- It is not recommended to supplement with dresses dresses sewn from shiny fabrics. As well as models in which the neck is decorated with embroidery, frills, lace, frill or bow. Do not need jewelry on the neck and outfits with an American armhole. It is undesirable to use jewelry for a dress on one shoulder, especially if the only strap has a decor (rhinestones, embroidery, etc.). For such a dress, it is better to wear only earrings and a bracelet.
Color harmony
The color of the dress largely determines the choice of jewelry. You can choose jewelry for the dress on the basis of contrast, but this contrast should not introduce disharmony in the image. The second option is the choice of jewelry for the color of the outfit. But in this case, you need to make sure that the jewelry is not "lost" against the background of the dress.
In addition, choosing the color of jewelry, you need to consider your type of appearance. Cold-skinned girls are adorned with cold tones, owners of dark-skinned skin are warm shades.
Successful decisions
Here are some harmonious combinations:
- Blue dress silver jewelry will allow to appear in all its glory, if you need to put a bright accent, then it is worth choosing jewelry of dark red color.
- Red along additional decorations are not particularly needed as the color is self-sufficient. But if you want to use jewelry, you need to select it, depending on the purpose of the toilet. So, for an evening out in red, jewelry in a shade of gold, as well as black, are perfect. For everyday options, you can use jewelry in white or red tones (red should not match the tone of the dress, it should be lighter or darker).
- Burgundy dress saturated shades need jewelry color of gold. Various “berry” shades are well suited to the burgundy color of the dress - blueberry, blackberry, lingonberry.
- Easy to choose jewelry to a beige dress, since this color goes well with a variety of shades.
- Yellow dress worth adding purple jewelry. To create a gentle romantic image, it is better to use light colors (lilac, violet). Decorations of lilac and eggplant in the background of a yellow dress - this is an option for more courageous girls.

- Green dress will let you play in a new way jewelry in gold or silver. A bright accent can be put using coral-colored jewelry.

- White dress can be complemented with colored decorations. Red and blue color will make the image elegant, pastel shades are suitable for creating romantic bows.
- Black dress Add sophistication to pearls. And for everyday bows you can use any color jewelry.

- Bustier. For the evening, models with fully open shoulders are popular. Many girls mistakenly believe that any type of jewelry is suitable for such evening wear. But stylists do not recommend using massive necklaces or multi-layered beads for such dresses. The perfect choice is a graceful decoration around the neck. The jewelry should not be located below the subclavian fossa.
- V-shaped neckline. Such a neckline can be deep and moderate, but in any case, long chains are categorically not suitable for such clothes. The pendant is worth choosing a geometric shape that resembles the shape of a neckline.
- Crew neck dress. Massive jewelry or long chains are perfect for such clothes.
- High neck clothing (stand-up collar). The best choice for such a dress is a long string of beads or a multilayer decoration worn over the dress.
