    Who said that earrings should be worn on the ears, rings on fingers, bangles on the hands and brooches pinned to the lapel of outfits? The fact is that this is the way jewelry has been worn as long as can be remembered, but it is time to break the norm and come up with unique ways to wear jewelry.

    Wearing rings on necklace chains is not a new trend. It is however a breath of fresh air from wearing rings on fingers, as they have been worn for ages.

    Earrings make great pins or brooches and can be pinned anywhere on an outfit. The trick is to pin them where they are likely to be noticed, especially if they are stud earrings. The hair can be pinned up using loop earrings or the earrings could be used as add-ons on the hair.

    Necklaces are currently looped around the hand, and worn as bangles. Try looping necklaces on your ankles as well when wearing shorts or skirts. Different necklace lengths can be worn at a go, with vests or low cut tops. The trick is to layer the necklaces in order of chunkiness, with respect to the bead sizes.

    Last but not least, contrast jewelry with the outfit worn. The jewelry should not strictly match with the outfit; wearing various shades of jewelry can help an outfit acquire the ‘pop-out’ effect. Use jewelry to emphasize different regions of the body. For instance, wear chandelier earrings to draw emphasis to the face or a trendy belt for a cinched-waist effect.

    Earrings And Outfit Pairing

    Earrings have long been used as a body modification form, both for religious and cosmetic purposes. The jewelry is worn by both men and women; however, they are commonly worn by women across the globe.

    A number of earring wearers pierce their ears to adorn the jewelry pieces, but there are some people who prefer the clip-on earrings. Pairing earrings and outfits may be second nature to most women; however, there are a few guidelines which everyone can use to best pair different outfits with these ear pieces.

    Studs are best worn when out on the beach, during work outs or with outfits that have embellishments integrated onto the fabric. They help to keep attention on the wearer’s outfit as opposed to the ear jewelry. Stud earrings are also commonly worn by men; however, men’s stud earrings come with larger stones than those meant for women.

    Tear drop earrings are a bit more pronounced that studs. They pair well with everyday clothes for a chic look.

    Chandelier earrings are the dressier jewelry pieces out of the bunch. They pair well with evening wear as well as simple dresses.

    The basic rules, which cut across all earrings and outfit pairings, dictate that; the earrings should go-well with the chosen outfit, the hair style preferred should not hide the earrings from view and necklaces worn should likewise pair well with the earrings selected.
