What Will Be Fashionable In 2010

November 11, 2009 · Posted in Business Grants · Comments Off 

2010 is rapidly approaching! Those of us who are fashion conscious need to know the upcoming jewellery (jewelry :US EN) trends for the new year. I have carefully sourced styles from the catwalks, the celebrities and the fashion gurus.

Like much of the last half of 2009, bigger is better when it comes to jewellery. Dramatic necklaces, BIG cocktail rings- it’s all about making an impression. A little tip is DON’T wear more than one statement piece at a time. A large, multi-strand necklace can not couple with drop earrings (of any kind in my opinion) or a large ring. The key is to overdo it on one feature, under-do the rest. Emphasise your statement piece to stand out from the crowd.

Sterling silver jewellery is still the market leader. The fashionable shapes and designs being released now are predominately silver. Silver’s fresh, bold, durable and beautiful, and it can be teamed with any precious rock or jewel.

Colours will be bold, bright and contrasting. Yellow gems, like the citrine, will be big. Turquoise will continue to be in style. Huge coloured gems are what it’s all about.

Geometric shapes like ovals, circles, squares and rectangles will continue to be in style into 2010. Crosses are also making a comeback. Cuffs are in full force and are a must have, especially if they’re over the top and chunky. Exotic and tribal inspired jewellery will also make an impression.

Organic materials which are in are onyx, marcasite, bone and corals. Natural coral is stunning shaped into beads and pendants. You’ll be seeing people wearing coral and sterling silver bracelets, large rings with coral shaped as the stone, and funky abstract pendants made from this glorious material. Onyx and other stone like marcasite will be in the form of dazzling drop earrings, oversized bead necklaces and bracelets and a bold addition to a cocktail ring.

Chandelier earrings continue to reign supreme. Fringe styles are also coming in fashion. These can be a statement accessory also, so don’t be too shy to wear earrings a little big.

The verdict is in. Big and chunky are still the kings of fashion. This is no time to be shy, ladies! We sell fashionable jewellery at our online fine jewellery store, www.divine-jewellery.com . Please take a look for inspiration, and you never know- you might find the piece you love.

Wardrobe And Visual Credibility Go Together

September 30, 2009 · Posted in Business Grants · Comments Off 

When you meet another person you are evaluated first by your dress, the second how you are speaking and third by the words you are speaking. If you are feeling misunderstood, the first place to check is your personal appearance, the clothing that you are wearing, and what you are doing. Next check how you are speaking and then what you are saying.

You either make a statement that is positive or negative. When it comes to others opinions there is very little gray area. First impressions and image management allow you to experience impression management which is a very important skill in the world today.
 
If you are making the wrong image statement it is easy to be overlooked. That is why being consistent with your image from day to day is so important. The consistency allows you to be more credible to yourself and others.

Visual credibility then allows for the person you are meeting to give you an opportunity to present your information to them. If you are not visually credible, you often do not get an opportunity to present your material. It might be the exact information the person you are meeting needs but, if you are not allowed to present it, they will miss the chance of receiving what they were looking for at the time. Because of the credibility gap, you may never be able to present the information to them.
 
It is unfortunate that packaging-the way you are dressing-could keep you from being successful in the world when trying to share your information. Consider that any effort in the area of image or image improvement could significantly impact your success.

Many people do not want to be bothered, but if they only knew the difference their image was making, it might give them a reason to reconsider image importance.
