Women love to wear jewelry. This practice was a part of different traditions across the globe in the past. However, it has become a trend and fashion statement for both men and women, these days. Jewelry can enhance the beauty of the wearer. It also creates an aura around the wearer.

A lot of people tend to spoil their look via wearing jewelry in wrong combinations and teaming up with wrong attire. Hence, it is important to follow some rules when wearing jewelry. Here are some rules you need to follow in order to use jewelry to enhance your personality.

• Contrast and tone

Fashion experts feel that contrast jewelry worn on a plain understated outfit works really well. For instance, you can try Lapis Lazuli or Turquoise stone jewelry over a black dress. Toning colors such as a Peridot against dark greens is also a huge success.

• Don't overdo

Make sure that you focus on wearing just one bold piece of jewelry that stands out. Other pieces should be complimentary and simple such as trinkets, rings etc.

• Be practical

You must focus on practicality of the jewelry when wearing it. Do not wear heavy jewelry to office. Take special care of the event you are attending when deciding on a piece of jewelry. In short your choice of jewelry should match the occasion perfectly.

• Necklace lengths

The length of necklace should be decided according to your outfit. For instance, chokers look great with tops and dresses that are strapless. Opt for shorter necklaces when wearing collar tops. A string of beads will go well with turtlenecks and tunics.

Body type

You need to consider your body type seriously when wearing jewelry. For instance, if you have a petite body, small piece of jewelry will be ideal for you.
