| High Fashion on a Low Budget:How |
These may be hard economic times that were living in, but that wont cease us from wanting what they dont have when it comes to whats the latest and the greatest in fashion accessories. Truthfully, its hard to ignore when those fierce fashion necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings are dangling on sky-high models on the pages of shiny ads, immense billboards, computers, and on the TV. But what if youre short of money, or have other duties that are positive to keep you from going on a shopping spree anytime soon? By reading the tips below, youll find that you can be on trend and still have the funds to pay the bills.
Be High Fashion on a Low Budget
Tassels and Fringe the warm seasons wont be the only things swinging in as fashionistas play up the trend of popular accessories that make the eye do a double-take. The only catch is that anything with tassels or fringe is probably going to cost you more because its so in demand. Heres the solution, turn to vintage pieces from a flea market or your local thrift store. The saying that everything elderly is new again does ring true in this case.
Geode jewelry - that popular, jagged stone jewelry is definitely dominating the preview runways for this spring and summer. Its a 2011 jewelry trend must-have, but it wont come cheaply. Some pieces can run in to the hundreds but heres a great way to claim those stunning stones for yourself. Purchase them in slices. Yes, you can get cut slivers and theyll even be in different colors! Buy the ones with a hole drilled in the middle and hang them on a chain and like that, youre suddenly in style.
Cabochons Cabochons kind of look like gems and side lays flat. The larger ones are all the anger, but again, if a jewelry piece has detail, it can cost you more. For the frugal consumer, Id recommend that you check out online sellers such as EBay. Vendors sell loose crafting stones in bulk all of the time. Go for the giant stones in the colors of the season of course; blues, greens, browns, and coral tones. Then get artful with a small hot glue. You can adhere the stones onto bangle bracelets and give them new life. |
