Getting More Use Out of Pendants

You found the perfect pendant. It incorporates your favorite colors, is neither too large nor too small, and really lets your personal sense of style shine. Best of all, you just know you are going to wear it all the time, but then you don’t.

You may put it on often, intending to wear it with many different outfits, but then it’s back to the jewelry box for your favorite pendant before you even leave the room. It just doesn’t look right.

Rather than the actual pendant not working with your outfits, it may be necklace it is on. Different shirts have different necklines, and different necklines call for different necklace lengths. For example, a scoop neck may look best with a 16” or 18” chain while a turtleneck may require a 20” chain or longer.

To get more mileage out of your favorite pendant, consider picking up sterling silver chains in varying lengths. Now that your pendant can be worn with multiple outfits in your wardrobe, your pendant may just spend more time on your neck than in your jewelry box!

Hot Jewelry Trends: Arm Candy

The latest looks straight off runways and magazine pages all have one thing in common: lots and lots of arm candy. Yes, the hottest ensembles incorporate bangles and bracelets galore. No matter your age or style, you can easily make this runway look work for your everyday life.

While many of the runway looks have bangles and bracelets going halfway up the model’s arm (and this can certainly be a fun look to rock when going out), this can be a bit much for everyday life as a busy employee, mom, whatever. So what is a fashionista who actually needs to use her arm to do? Par down the look of course!

A nice way to look on-trend while enjoying functionality is to stack up 3 to 5 bracelets on the same wrist. These bracelets can all be identical or they can all be different while still looking like they belong together. A fun (and less expensive way) to get a custom arm candy look is to mix bracelets and bangles you have with a few new pieces.

As always, Something About Silver can help you create a personalized look for you with its bracelets that are classic and yet right on-trend! For example, the I Love You More bracelet is a simple yet interesting design that will almost certainly play well with other bracelets and bangles you already have in your jewelry wardrobe. Or consider getting the Mixed Metal Charm bracelet, which will go with bracelets of all metal colors and incorporates another trend – the two-tone look!

In what areas of your live are you going greener?

Hot Jewelry Trends: Layers

Continuing our conversation on the latest jewelry trends (see last week’s post on the two-tone look), it is all about layers this season. In reality, layering jewelry has been an important fashion trend for the past couple of years, but it is even more important now. Instead of just layering necklaces, fabulous fashionistas across the country are starting to pile on the bracelets and rings as well.

The goal, for most of us, is to pull off an equaling amazing look without breaking the bank. Not to mention, it can be hard putting together the right pieces for layering purposes. There is a fine line between looking effortlessly chic with your layers and looking like you just threw on everything in your jewelry box! That is where Something About Silver comes in!

Rest assured that all of the affordably priced personalized silver jewelry in the SAS line play together perfectly, which means that you can safely layer up any and all of the jewelry you purchase from SAS. Better yet, SAS offers necklaces with multiple charms, which means you can achieve a layered look without having to wear multiple pieces of jewelry. Check out the Near My Heart charm necklace or the Personalized Initial Starfish Pearl Blue Apatite charm necklace if you want to go that route! Oh, and SAS hasn’t forgotten about your wrists or fingers….there are plenty of items in the line that can be layered there as well!

A tip for making this fashion-forward jewelry trend appropriate for everyday wear: focus on one area to fill with layers and be minimalistic with the rest. For example, if you are layering multiple necklaces together, opt for a smaller ring and one bracelet. Or if you are piling on the bracelets, choose an understated necklace and ring for the day. Remember, jewelry is one of the best ways to express yourself, so have fun with it!

Have you incorporated the layered jewelry trend into your look yet?

Organic Rustic Stacking Rings

Latest SAS Creation: Organic Rustic Stacking Rings

The newest addition to the Something About Silver product line is the organic rustic stacking ring. Created from recycled fine silver (99.9% pure silver), these little beauties are a fun little whimsical addition to your jewelry collection. And as with every piece of SAS jewelry, they are completely customizable.

Of course, smooth, shiny rings are beautiful, but these organic, rustic pieces seem to take on a personality all their own...it’s their unique imperfections that make them so special. An old fashioned typewriter font is used on these rings to complete the vintage look. These rings have been the most popular rings since they were added to the SAS line in January.

At about 3.5 mm wide, these rings can be worn alone or stacked two to three together (which happens to be a major jewelry trend). And they are affordably priced so you can get more than one!

Do you have a signature ring you wear every day?
