i spend a lot of time on this blog talking about closet clean-outs…purging…trying to create new outfits from items that you’ve worn only one certain way…these same rules apply to your jewelry as well…just as in your clothing…over time…things that you bought may have worked for your life style…but your style either changed…or your profession or life style may have changed…and in that…your clothing style changes…
this also applies to your jewelry…and i do recommend going through it every so often…and see if the pieces you have…are working with your current life style…just as you analyze the items in your closet…do the same with all your jewelry…lay it out on your bed or a nice clean table…
– does the jewelry work with your current outfits?
– does the color and style match your current style?
– do you have a lot of one (ie: earrings) and not enough of another (ie: necklaces)?
then start looking at your outfits that you have put together…how many different choices do you have with one outfit? as i always say with your clothing items…that each item should be worn at a minimum of 3 different ways…so should you try and mix up the jewelry you wear with each outfit…
mix it up…have fun and experiment…put two or three bracelets together…or necklaces…make new “statement” pieces just by combining…and for the pieces that are just lying around…because they don’t go with your current style…is there a way that they can be updated? if not…it might be time to say good-bye…
