Fashion jewelry is crafted from a variety of materials which lend themselves to interesting textures and patterns. Consider the different design elements when adding it to your outfits.
* Color: Fashion jewelry includes all the gem colors, plus many more hues in glass, resin, crystals and plastics. From black and white to pastels and brights, a small piece of jewelry can have a large impact when worn.
* Pattern: The man-made beads found in fashion necklaces and bracelets often feature beautiful, multicolored patterns. Many designs resemble fabric patterns like floral or animal prints. The patterns may be formed during the manufacturing process or painted on by hand. Art glass beads feature patterns on the interior and exterior of the glass.
* Texture: Texture adds visual depth and complexity to fashion. Texture can be achieved by the choice of materials used in making the jewelry; for example, leather, wood and rough stones contrast with smoothly woven fabrics. Designers can also finish the jewelry with various textures, leaving the surface smooth, grainy, chunky, polished or satiny.
* Finish: The precious metals are loved for their shine, but fashionable jewelry can also flash a bit of light. Even resin and plastic can have a shiny or metallic finish. If you need a more subtle approach, look for items with a duller, matte finish or a lustrous satin finish.
* Sparkle: If you love the twinkle of diamonds but don't wish to wear those precious stones every day, wear costume jewelry decorated with crystals and glass. Crystal and glass beads are available in many colors and are faceted to reflect the light.
