While jewelry may evolve over time, there is nothing like a
piece of bling to put a spring in a
bride to be step . These pieces below are versatile and timeless, so you can be
sure you’ll always look chic. The key thing to keep in mind while investing in
a classic piece is to make sure it goes with a fair number of your outfits and
your personal style. Whether your wardrobe is filled with traditional silks or
modern Georgette and chiffon, there’s something for everyone!
Solitaires:
Solitaires exude a classic vibe like nothing else! If you
can’t afford a couple of big rocks, zircon & diamante are great (cheaper)
alternatives! You may want to read this Solitaire buying guide before
purchasing your set.
Whether you are heading out to a dinner wearing an anarkali,
or attending your friends mehendi- A pretty pair of dangling jhumkas goes with
just about everything! Plus, you can get them with literally any embellishment
of your choice – pearls, kundan, diamante, pure gold, you name it!
Chandbalis:
If there had to be an ‘earring of the year’ awards-
chandbalis are probably the first thing that pop into your head! You can find a
mind-boggling variety of these, so it’s easy to get carried away and panic! We
recommend that you stick to investing in them in either a neutral color or with
red/pink or green embellishments, as these colors go with almost all Indian
wear! Another thing to keep in mind is to buy these with a different embellishment
than your lovely Jhumkas – so if you’re Jhumkas are pearl, get these in kundan
and so on. This way, you can have a little of everything!
Cocktail Rings:
You might think a cocktail ring is a bit of a waste, but
believe us it will be the ONE thing you will use the most of. Don’t feel like
carrying the weight of a gazillion bangles or one huge kada (okay, we made you
buy that, guilty as charged) all evening? Say hello to the saver of bare hands
– the cocktail ring! Cocktail rings are basically oversized rings and again,
available everywhere! Buy something classic or go fashion-forward with
something edgy yet traditional.
Chunky Gold Kada or
cuff:
When you’re keeping everything else minimal, a chunky bangle
or kada can elevate your look and keep you from looking “under-dressed” at a
festive event. Also, once you have on one of these, it really eliminates the
need for rings, matching bangles and the works! Make sure you get a pair of
these that can go with all of your outfits – edgily cut kundan ones or pure
gold ones are what we’ll bet on!
