How to wear diamond jewelry

in the 1990s, Russians were eager to acquire a lot of gold and diamonds. Jewelry of that time was distinguished by its massiveness and great weight, because putting on a lot of gold and diamonds, a person demonstrated his success to those around him.

Years have passed, the fashion for jewelry has changed. Today you rarely see thick chains of dubious weaving, they were melted long ago by jewelers or they lie in safes as insurance for a rainy day.

And the diamonds? The diamonds remained and did not decrease. This is no wonder, no one in their right mind would think of giving a large diamond to a jeweler, with a request to make several small stones out of it. Everyone knows that a large diamond is much more valuable per carat. Therefore, small and large diamonds are still with us, and they will never stop wearing them.

Diamonds also help to save money, this is especially true in our reality, where crises occur quite regularly. These are such beautiful stones, and they will help to save money, and they will add confidence with beauty.

Now let's look into history and think about how substantiated the rules are today, according to which it used to be regulated - to whom and when to wear diamonds ...

Officially, the rules of etiquette appeared at the court of Louis XIV. In those distant times, the courtiers were given cards with the rules of conduct, including those concerning outfits and adornments. The first rule about wearing diamonds was that only married women could wear diamond jewelry and only in the evening. Therefore, diamond jewelry in the morning and afternoon hours was left at home, and instead of them they put on jewelry with sapphires, rubies, emeralds, pearls and other stones.

How reasonable are these rules for our time?

Regarding the time of day, everything is understandable - in the evening artificial lighting is lit up, and diamonds sparkle better, revealing their beauty. And with regards to the ban on unmarried girls and women? This rule is inappropriate for our time.

Modern girls are not the same as in the time of Louis XIV and the way of life is different, the place of the girl in society is also different. Girls in the 21st century can give up family life and then they will not wear diamonds all their lives? In addition, many modern girls buy diamond jewelry themselves and do not have any dependence on men. Therefore, this rule in our realities is stupidity and relics of the past.

Another thing is to observe the measure and not put on a lot of jewelry at once, otherwise you risk being like a Christmas tree, this is at best, and at worst you may be confused with a gypsy who got her jewelry by fortune telling and various deception.

How to wear diamond jewelry
You can make a good impression on people if you choose the right combination of diamond jewelry. A diamond set in different variations will look best: a bracelet and a ring, earrings and a pendant. A possible option is a ring, earrings and a brooch. The set looks great - a necklace and earrings.

Rings
Thin rings with a stone are worn on the ring finger (options are possible - right or left). Multiple diamond rings on one finger are not allowed.

Rings with one large diamond are usually worn on the index finger.

When doing this, consider the ratio of the size of the ring to your fingers. On slender girls with thin fingers, large rings with large diamonds do not look the best way.

Earrings with diamonds

Here the rules are simple, but very important: long neck, tall - almost all earrings will do, including long pendants.

If a lady has a short neck and a full figure, it is better not to think about long pendants with diamonds. But you can afford large earrings with screws, button earrings or other massive jewelry.

A bracelet
It is customary to wear a bracelet with diamonds on the right hand. If it is a soft bracelet (it should consist of separate segments that do not have a defining stone in their center) or a hard hoop, wear a bracelet do not stand so that it does not move on your hand - lower it down, let it hang casually at the very hand.

Bracelets decorated with large stones that define the center should be worn higher so that they do not dangle.

Brooch with diamonds

It is better for girls to choose small brooches with diamonds - small butterflies, bugs, flowers are attached on the left side of the chest, about fifteen centimeters below the shoulder. Can also be attached near the gate. And it is advisable to wear a massive brooch in the collar area.

A plain dress looks best with diamonds, black is the best option. If your outfit has buttons of a dull color, you should remember that they should be at least five centimeters below the jewelry.

Now many girls like to experiment and attach a brooch in the most unexpected places in combination with different things. It just doesn't make sense to attach a diamond brooch on fabrics with a colorful pattern, on casual outfits and safari-style dresses, sports and knitted items, jackets and collars of any coats.

Necklace and pendant
Diamond necklaces are thin and wide, can contain large and small diamonds, and can also be combined with other precious stones. A large necklace will look better in combination with a dress with a neckline.

The pendant looks better on a one-colored closed dress without bright patterns and buttons.

Now, regarding the weight of the diamonds. The famous TV presenter Alexander Vasiliev loves to talk and give advice, including on the diamond topic. According to Vasiliev, diamonds are stones from 5 to 35 carats, the rest is for cutting glass! This statement is empty chatter, and a reasonable person understands that stones weighing 5 or more carats are too large for some jewelry.

For example, a watch with diamonds, is it possible to decorate a watch with 5 carat stones? This list can be continued and continued, which makes it clear that Vasiliev often speaks exclusively for provocation, in order to be discussed, multiplying his fame and money, and not at all in order to give you any really useful knowledge.

Large diamonds are good for investments, there are few of them, and therefore they are always in price. But to decorate your evening look, it is better to wear more modest stones. Remember how many times there were beauties lost their jewelry during noisy parties! Many people gather in clubs and even private parties, and large stones are so attractive that even a girlfriend can not resist ...

Now we have decided how to wear diamonds correctly.

1) Even the youngest girls can wear diamonds! We live in the 21st century, now there are different times and different girls, so the rules of the times of Louis XIV are absolutely inappropriate.

2) Better to wear diamonds in the eveningwhen artificial lighting is lit. But if you go to the office and go to a restaurant in the evening and do not have the opportunity to go home to change, put on diamonds in the morning. If you put jewelry in your purse, they can be lost until the evening. The modern rhythm of life dictates its own rules that break and erase the traditions and norms of the past.

3) Place large stones in the safe, and at parties it is better to wear not the most expensive jewelry. Even queens wear jewelry with large diamonds on special occasions.

4) It is important to know when to stop and don't wear too much jewelry. This applies not only to diamond jewelry.
