Make a Statement with Statement Jewelry

Ask another person and they may have their own unique definition about what statement jewelry can be described to be. It has been described as any kind of jewelry that makes a big impact.  Wide cuff bracelets, generously-sized chandelier earrings or big bib necklaces all qualify as statement jewelry. This definition serves us well. In general, statement jewelry makes such an impact that you’d only want to wear one piece at a time.  Of course, for black tie events you can bend the rules a little.
Have you thought about the many uses of statement jewelry? It can promote your cause, inspire others and add excitement to your wardrobe. Worn alone or with other pieces, motivational pendants range in size, style and price. Sold in boutiques and through online artisans and jewelers, customized statement jewelry can include your name, an important date or a favorite word or phrase. Choosing the right type of statement jewelry is important and can take the guesswork out of what to wear to special occasions. From coining a phrase to wardrobe accessorizing, eye-catching statement jewelry can make a difference.
You can even make your own statement jewelry by following these directions. Look through a stack of magazines and jewelry catalogs and mark the designs and phrases pictured that appeal most to you with a slipof paper. Search online using your computer and bookmark any pages that contain the type of statement jewelry you are looking for. Make a final list of the items you think qualify. Notice the different styles of statement jewelry available. Select items such as charms and pendants in gold, silver, pewter or copper, according to your personal preference. Then, determine which type and color of beads work best with the statement jewelry you have selected. Purchase a dainty chain or leather cord to hang your charm or pendant from, if simplicity is more your style. Layer multiple lengths of chains together with multiple charms or pendants for a dramatic effect and to make a bold statement.
Choose clothing and hairstyles that accentuate the statement jewelry. Crop your hair short or pull it up to show off inspirational earrings. Wear necklines that flatter pendants and charms. Pair bold colors with patterned shirts and dresses to make wardrobes pop. Are you having problems incorporating big, bold jewelry pieces into your wardrobe?
