Pearls: The Ultimate Summertime Accessory?

Besides beach attire, what manner of dress do you favor wearing in summer? Shorts, jumpers, skorts, capri pants, and skirts are fashion favorites, the ideal look while staying at a humble beach house, rustic mountain cabin or lodge, or just flitting around your own home.

As far as jewelry choices go, pearls are a year `round favorite but more so in the summer – after all, the birthstone for the month of June is the pearl.

Worn at formal occasions throughout the year, pearls complement today`s woman who is entertaining at home, dining out on the town, shopping, or meeting with friends. Pearl drop earrings or studs, pearl necklaces or strands, and pearl bracelets can be worn with just about any summer wardrobe, providing a level of elegance and sophistication favored by the royals but within reach of most consumers.

What exactly makes pearls so popular during the summer months? Many things including thoughts of romance, elegant living, and perhaps the most common of all: quiet walks on sandy beaches. After all, who hasn`t picked up a surf washed oyster, pried it open, seeking but not finding a prized Akoya pearl? It really doesn`t matter to you that you aren`t even on the right beach to find your pearl of great price as your imagination carries you from shell to shell, dreaming of finding that one pearl to add to your collection.

When the dream ends, what will you do? Will you be satisfied with your search or will you seek out ways you can turn your dream into a reality?

Your good fortune today is that pearl harvesting methods have improved to the point where pearls are no longer just the purvey of the rich and of royals. Up until the beginning of the last century, pearl hunting was the chief way that pearls were harvested, a costly and labor intensive method of locating pearls by accomplished divers.

By the early part of the 20th century, pearl farming came into vogue, a way for pearls to be harvested through controlled means. Japan was at one time the leading producer of freshwater pearls, but has since been overtaken by China. The increased production and ease of harvesting has sent prices plunging to the point where beautiful pearl strand necklaces can be found on-line at prices starting around $100.

Of course, not all pearls are the same with some having great value, while others less so. What gives any pearl its value is a combination of several attributes including its color, luster, size, symmetry, and lack of surface flaws, with luster being of greatest importance. However, a pearl`s size is also important when setting its value as larger, more rounded pearls are more expensive and highly prized.

Keep in mind that there is a difference between saltwater pearls and freshwater pearls though they may seem similar in appearance. Saltwater pearls grow in pearl oysters which live in oceans, while freshwater pearls grow in mussels which can be found in ponds, rivers, lakes, and other freshwater sources. Both are equally attractive with freshwater pearls marketed as freshwater, while saltwater pearls are sold as either Tahitian, South Sea, or Akoya pearls.

No matter which type of pearl you choose and what accessory you like, pearls add a special touch to most any summer wardrobe. The right look, at the right price, for your wearing pleasure.

Choosing The Fashion Accessory That Fits You

When it comes to a beautiful outfit, nothing completes a look like a well-chosen fashion accessory. You may be wearing the perfect little black dress or the sleek and sophisticated pant suit but until you pair it with a fashion accessory it never quite becomes the full expression of which it is capable.

A fashion accessory can mean many different things to different people. For the shoe enthusiasts among us, no outfit is worth wearing without a stunning and complementary pair of shoes. There are certainly a bevy of beautiful shoes on the market today made by creative designers who know what looks good. But don’t be afraid to check out vintage stores where you could easily find a pair of classic shoes reflective of that period in history. Pairing the contemporary with the vintage is a great way to create drama and interest.

For others, a fashion accessory may mean a unique belt that goes with a great pair of jeans – taking the ordinary to the extraordinary; or a purse to offset elegant eveningwear. Ladies’ handbags are always popular vintage items, so you’ll be sure to find a number of beautiful bags in antique stores. Carrying a vintage bag to an elegant evening affair is a trend even seen on Hollywood’s red carpets.

However, when most people think of a fashion accessory they think of jewelry. Jewelry as a fashion accessory can complement any outfit and lend itself to casual clothing as well as eveningwear because of its versatility. Diamonds, crystal, silver, and gold – the jewelry that you choose will define your look; nothing changes the look of an outfit more. For this reason, jewelry is by far the most influential fashion accessory.

Finding the fashion accessory that complements a particular outfit depends largely on your personal style. That perfect fashion accessory may be waiting for you at your nearby mall or large retail store. But when looking for a unique fashion accessory it’s imperative that you think creatively.

Hit the local antique stores where you will find a nod to the vintage fashion accessory. Pair a modern pair of pants with a 1950s piece of jewelry or a contemporary evening dress with an elegant 1920s scarf. The possibilities are endless when it comes to the fashion accessory. With the addition of a few pieces you are able to infuse the outfit with your personal style and elevate your look to the next level.

Essential Hair Accessory Tips

In the 80s, the hair accessory was invaluable. Almost every style involved some sort of hair accessory or embellishment to really set it off. Today, the hair accessory is not a part of everyday style and care should be taken as to when and how to use the hair accessory so that you will not look dated.

With that said, there are some occasions that scream for hair accessories: Work, social occasions and formal events may all have you searching for the perfect hair accessory to set off your look. While different occasions will call for different hair accessories, a good rule of thumb to follow is to choose the sedate hair accessory over one that could not go unnoticed in a crowd of a few hundred or a few thousand.

While choosing the right one can be tricky, there are a few pointers that you can follow to help you pick the perfect hair accessories to complete your look. Here are just a few:

" Work. In many work situations, you will likely have to wear your hair up. No matter if your type of employment requires it or you simply like to change your look now and then, wearing your hair up calls for the right hair accessory to do the job. The number one rule to finding the right hair accessory for work is to avoid banana clips at all costs.

I mean, who still makes these things? Apparently they're making money at it or they wouldn't still be producing these torture devices of the 80s. Don't further their cause: stop buying this hair accessory. The second rule is to choose hair accessories that closely match your hair color or that blend nicely with it.

Matching a hair accessory to your clothes is only cute when you are 5-years-old. What you choose will depend largely on your length of hair and how you like to wear your hair up. For French twists, choose hair accessories that resemble over-sized hair clips. Simply twist and clip.

" Social and formal occasions. In social and formal occasions you have a greater opportunity to express your artsy side through hair accessories. Again choose sedate pieces over garish hair accessories. Classy pieces can be perfect for social occasions, whereas a little sprig of flowers or garnishment may be needed for formal occasions.

Formal occasions are the only time that is okay to match your hair accessory to your clothing. But still, do not go overboard. What attracts the eye should be the beauty of your hair, not too-busy hair accessories. If in doubt about what hair accessory or how much of it to include, opt for the simple solution: use as little as possible.

The bottom line with hair accessories is that too much of a good thing can confuse the eye and make your do look garish. Simple hair accessories, on the other hand, can make a bold beauty statement that makes your hair the talk of the office or party.

The Fashion Handbag - A Must Have Accessory

Handbags have come a long way in the fashion world. No more just an object that holds a woman’s wallet, makeup and keys, fashion handbags have become a must-have wardrobe accessory. For many women, fashion handbags are as much a part of their wardrobe as their dresses, suits, shirts, blouses, pants, shoes and other clothing items they wear. A fashion handbag contributes to the overall impression of any outfit, and it sends a message about the personality of the person who carries it.

Of course, women do still carry handbags for functional reasons. Women definitely need a place to hold the necessities of life. But fashion has caught up with function. If we are going to carry handbags, we’re going to look good doing it! Fashion handbags have become an important signature accessory for stylish women around the world.

Fashion handbags have become true wardrobe accessories. A stylish woman wouldn’t carry a backpack when walking the red carpet at a formal event, nor would she take a clamshell evening bag on a camping trip. These may be extreme examples, but surely they illustrate how the handbag you carry completes the image you present to the world.

Fashion handbags are available in so many different styles and shapes that it is easy to select a handbag that is perfect for every style, mood and occasion. Maybe you are wearing a fashionable broomstick skirt today. A slouchy shoulder bag might just be the perfect handbag accessory. Maybe you have a job interview. That same slouchy bag might not send the best message. Not only will it not coordinate well with your best interview suit, it doesn’t send a message of organization and competence. A slim briefcase or classic leather bag would be a better choice for this occasion.

Fashion handbags are available in too many styles to list. To name just a few, some of the most popular styles today include: evening bags, hobo style handbags, boxcar handbags, duffel and mini duffel handbags, shoulder bags, wrist bags, and many others. Popular fashion handbag materials include fabric, nylon, leather, crochet, canvas and other textile. Some fashion handbags are decorated with beads, sequins, and appliqués. Some people even carry fashion handbags that are especially designed to allow them to carry their pet with them everywhere they go!

You are sure to be able to find fashion handbags that match your every mood. Changing your handbag to match your mood and attire is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to let your personality shine through to the world.

How To Use Make Up As A Fashion Accessory

Makeup can be one more accessory to your personal image and that’s why we are going to explain to you step by step the most flattering and easy trends so that this season you will be beautiful.

MAKEUP

There are various flattering trends this season. On the one hand, there is the natural look with earthy and gold tones, and neutral tones for the eyes and transparent but shinny lips. On the other hand, there is the sexier look with darker tones for the eyes from navy blue to purple, and (don’t forget black), and dark sexy lips.

ADVICE: Choose a look that works for you and one that you feel most comfortable with and follow the advice that we give you below.

FOUNDATION

Give a touch of something pearlescent to your foundation and you’ll achieve a modern and flattering look.

ADVICE: Apply your foundation to the entire face. Once it has been absorbed in to the skin, wait a few minutes for it to absorb, apply a small amount of illuminating powder in the T zone, forehead, cheekbones and chin. Blend it well with a brush for a pearly but natural effect. The result, light satiny skin.

COVER UP

Brighten your look by using a light cover up which is lighter than your skin tone over your foundation.

ADVICE: Blend it well around your eyes with your finger tip to take away any excess. And that’s it, a great look without bags and full of life.

EYES

For a natural look, use browns and neutral tones.

ADVICE: Apply a golden tone on the upper eyelid to achieve the look and give it a touch of light. If you want your eyes to have a stronger look, use a dark brown pencil on the inner eye.

For a sexy look, use darker tones, the ones you like the most, from navy blue to bottle green. Or if you like, use grays or blacks.

ADVICE: Don’t forget to put the darker color on your eyelid putting a blended line next to the eye lashes and put makeup on the outer eye with a black pencil. Lighten the eyelid just under the eyebrow with a pearly or shinny white for a sexy arousing look.

ESSENTIAL: Everyone notices mascara so curl your eyelashes beforehand and use two cotes to give them volume.

CHEEKBONES

Give your cheekbones a healthy look with soft rosy natural colors.
ADVICE: Blend blush well with a clean brush and loose powder on your cheekbones.

LIPS

If you want a natural look, or you have put too much lipstick on, apply lip gloss for a juicy natural look.

ADVICE: Choose a lip gloss that also shines and protects your lips.

On the other hand, if you want to forget the natural look, try a passion red or a bright fushia. The result, sexy provocative, but natural lips.

ADVICE: Use a well-sharpened lip pencil that is very similar to your lipstick to outline your lips. Do this before applying lipstick so that the color will last longer and it will be easier to use darker tones.

THE FINAL TOUCH

Wash your hair with a rinse similar to the natural color of your hair to make it brighter but without changing the color.

ADVICE: Ask you hairdresser. There are rinses that naturally moisturize and give shine to the hair.
