How to choose a necklace?

Jewelry such as necklace is an important complement to styling, both for women and men. It is worth remembering, however, that for a necklace to be a harmonious complement to a style, it has to be the right size. There are several standard lengths, but a jeweler can also choose an adjustable chain specifically for you. The most common types of necklaces are necklaces that are 30 to 35 centimeters long, a celebrity necklace that measures about 40 to 45 centimeters, a matinee chain that is 50 to 65 centimeters long, and an opera that is as long as 90 centimeters. The different lengths will suit different clothes

• Necklace will be the best for elegant ceremonies. It will emphasize feminine character of styling, highlighting the neckline. It is, however, jewelry which will suit ladies with long, slender necks.
• Celebrytka is a very popular neck ornament for a few seasons. It is very delicate, that is why it fits perfectly to airy, summer stylizations. It will also be an interesting addition to classic white t-shirt.
• Matinee is, in turn, necklace emphasizing breasts and attracting attention to it. It looks best as an addition to outfits with very deep neckline or those completely built up. However, it will not work with patterned blouses or dresses.
• Opera is one of the longest chains. It is very elegant and will go well with business outfits or simple evening dresses. Wrapped around your neck it can replace a celebrity necklace

When choosing a necklace, it is also worth to pay attention to the color of jewelry. Golden chain will suit ladies with warm looks perfectly. It will also work especially well in combination with timeless black and white and red styles. A silver chain will suit women with colder skin types and as an accessory to cooler shades of hairstyles

How to choose a bracelet?

A bracelet is a piece of jewelry that beautifully accentuates your hands and wrists. However, just like in the case of a necklace it is important to choose the right size. Usually it is the length of the bracelet and it is usually measured in centimetres. To make it easier to choose the right size, many bracelets have a chain which makes it possible to adjust the jewelry even by 4 centimeters. It may be a problem if the jewelry you buy is too big. How to choose the right size of the bracelet to avoid such a surprise? You can measure the circumference of your wrist at its widest point with the help of a tailor’s centimeter. If you plan to buy a bracelet with a delicate chain character add 1 centimeter to the measurement. However, if you want to buy a richly decorated one with beads or charms you should add 2 or even 3 centimeters to the circumference. When it comes to choosing the color of jewelry, follow the same rules as in case of the chain. This way you will be sure that the chosen bracelet is a harmonious addition to your styling.
