It is an essential part of your wardrobe, the black dress,
usually a classic style that is useful for more than one look. For some, it is
the dress of choice for the “I have nothing to wear” moments. According to
historians of fashion, Coco Chanel, the famous French fashion designer,
popularized this classic wardrobe staple with the Little Black Dress (LBD) back
in the 1920s. Designers however have taken the black dress to a new level, as
such, we see it now in various silhouettes and styles. We all love the black
dress, and listed below are a few recommendations from our collection to help
you finish your look.
UNDERSTATED ELEGANCE Want to keep your look modest
yet elegant? Accessorizing with simple elegant jewelry pieces may help you to
achieve a classic elegant appearance. This at times is an option for the dressy
casual look which might be more suitable for daytime events like church
functions, business breakfast, and the ladies afternoon tea. Pearls maybe a natural choice for this look, but stud earrings, bracelets and necklaces with simple designs like our Sterling Silver Solitaire Necklace paired with the Elise Cushion Cut CZ Stud Earrings are styles that have been chosen over the years. Here are some pearl selections from our collection that we think you may like for a classic
wardrobe finish. |

FORMAL If
you are attending an event that requires a formal look, and you are wondering
what jewelry can be paired with your gorgeous black dress to achieve a regal appearance,
consider jewelry that sparkles. Now high diamond jewelry might be the preferred
choice, but if you need something more affordable with a high quality grade, then
consider diamond simulants. Over the years many celebrities have actually worn diamond
like crystals on the red carpet, and still received praise for their flawless
wardrobe appearance. It’s all about the
quality and design, and we have a few selections to help you complete your
dazzling look. Checkout our Bowknot CZ Crystals Earrings, and Five Strand Pearl Rhinestone Accent Bracelet. |
GETTING SOCIAL If
you are planning on a night on the town, celebratory dinner with friends, bridal
party, etc., you may want to consider jewelry with a glamourous flair. Social
events of this nature means looking scaled up, but perhaps not awards night glamourous.
We have a few selections that might peak your interest in our Bridal and Black-tie Collection. |

COLOR LOVE Perhaps
you have a flair for bright shades and want to offset your black dress with some color, then
consider accessorizing with colorful jewelry. Just because you are wearing
black does not mean you cannot be colorful, select colorful gemstones and
crystals, fashion jewelry with colorful geometric shapes, tassel, or even bold gold
and silver pieces to show your more daring and perhaps adventurous personality.
A few choices from our collection include the Rainbow Phoenix CZ Earrings, and the Multihued Swarovski Crystals Necklace and Earrings Set. |

KEEPING IT CHIC If
your style is chic, meaning you prefer clean lines, nude color lipstick,
stilettos in shades of brown, white or black, yes, the sophisticated look. You
may appreciate our selections by Boom Chappell and Guillermo Arregui. Perhaps you are going to a business
meeting before attending a dinner, or a luncheon and want that smart casual
look, jewelry that works for both evening and daytime might be a good
investment for you. We have sophisticated designs such as our Sari Wrap Earrings that combine a sophisticated design with gold and crystal accents, or our Sterling Silver and Gold Bangle. |

something special to your wardrobe, especially for those thin straps and exposed
