Choosing Jewellery For A Special Occasion

September 29, 2020 by Debz Louise Leave a Comment

Although it is not often I go out-out these days, when I do – I am a big fan of accessories. I don’t tend to wear high heel shoes so I find that wearing bold jewellery helps me feel dressed up. I like to be comfortable, even when attending special occasions and I find jewellery much easier to wear than shoes that are going to leave my feet aching after a couple of hours.

Choosing Jewellery

The great thing about accessorising with jewellery is that there is something for everyone. Whatever your style, taste and budget you’ll be able to find something that suits exactly what you’re looking for. Necklaces, earrings, finger rings and even brooches can help to dress up an outfit, making you feel dressed for any special occasion.  Places like Carus Jewellery have loads of choices, so you’ll be able to find the perfect bit of sparkle for any occasion.

Something Different

If you’re looking for something a little different, or perhaps a stunning piece of jewellery to give to someone as a gift then vintage or antique jewellery can be a perfect choice.

There are some really exquisite jewellery pieces from the past, especially 1940s and even later – when they really appreciated stunning jewellery and wanted stand out pieces. For example, this 1940s gold oval picture locket which is bound to be full of memories. You can replace with your own photo if you wish, but what a lovely piece of history to wear to any occasion.

What To Wear

The choice of what to wear is very much a personal decision, as well as dependent on the occasion you’re attending and how dressed up you wish to be. I find that if I want to feel really dressed up, I tend to wear a necklace that is bold and sparkly – just a personal preference for myself.

 

 

I like the fact that something like this will stand out, and people are likely to ask me where it is from and where I got it. I tend to go for bold choices like this with outfits – lots of colour is definitely a personal preference for me. That said, if you’re looking for something a bit more understated then you will find plenty of jewellery choices that match this also.
Investing in Jewellery
If you’re buying 1930s accessories or antique pieces then this is often something that you’ll want to see as an investment. These are pieces of costume jewellery that you can wear once and then never think about again. Of course, there are different places on the high street that you can find fun, cost-effective pieces of jewellery for your standard night out. These pieces are definitely for those extra special occasions, or perhaps as a gift for someone you love.

 

 

 
Antique emerald jewellery is also a great choice for something special, it screams glamour. There is really something special about the beautiful green stone and it makes it the perfect choice for special occasion jewellery.
Whatever you wear, if you’re attending a special occasion then be safe, have fun and don’t worry about too much else! You are deserving of a nice time too – so go out and enjoy it  – I’d love to hear all about it!
