You're jewellery style is... The Flower Child
You’re all about keeping it natural! You tend towards woven pieces over plastic and rhinestones, and you don’t shy away from bold, bright colors.I’m not here to tell you to switch up your style — you’ve got it going on! Instead I want to teach you to shop a little smarter, so you can buy your go-to jewellery guilt-free.“I’ve always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit.” — Michael KorsThree things to ask yourself before buying your new bling!1. Can I wear it all day?Sometimes safer is smarter, friend. If you’re on the market for a new piece of jewellery, keep comfort in mind. Would you rather have a flashy zebra print bangle that pinches your wrist, or a subtle, easy to wear gold band?Sure, the bangle might be eye-catching and perfectly complement your skin tone… But what’s the use in shelling out your hard-earned cash if the jewelle ry isn’t fun to wear?The whole point of bling is to make you feel priceless, and it’s hard as heck to do that when you’re in pain.2. Is it worth the price?If the jewellery you’re eyeing is a little pricey, you want to make sure you’ll get your money’s worth in wear time...Wouldn’t it suck to spend $500 on an emerald cocktail ring only to realize it’s too clunky to wear for more than a couple hours?If you’re picking one piece to invest in, skip the trends. I’d suggest a timeless gold chain or a diamond tennis bracelet — these light-weight show-stoppers pair with just about anything! For day or night looks, they’re always in style.3. Will I love it a year from now?Okay, I get it… Sometimes the shiny thing is impossible to resist. You’re strolling through Myer looking for a slim-cut blazer when out of nowhere — BAM! You come face-to-face with a pair of the baubliest, most extravagantly blingy chandelier earrings.And they’re a steal at only $24.99!Here’s the thing though, $24.99 actually isn’t a fair price when you stop and think about it.That jewellery went out of style BEFORE you even picked it up! If they aren’t in the trash a year from now, they’re going to be collecting dust on your bathroom counter...
