Rhinestone Necklaces Offer Many Options

By Marissa Velazquez


There are a lot of ways to dress up a plain outfit, to make it better suited for whatever occasion is at hand. Embellishing with accessories is the quickest and easiest way to accomplish this feat. The options in this area are quite extensive ranging from simple rhinestone necklaces to very elaborate ones, scarves, brooches, belts and many statement pieces.

Scarves are a classic accessory and many different looks can come from a single piece. Rolled up and draped loosely around the neck is a great look for the office or a casual dinner. Opening it up and wrapping it around the shoulders creates a beautiful shawl that not only has a certain elegance about it, but serves a function in cooler temperatures as well.

Decorative items, such as belts and sashes, come in a lot of different widths, designs and colors and make wonderful accent pieces that can take an outfit in totally new directions. The size, theme and components of a brooch can make it a successful way to dress an ensemble up a bit. Using several accessories together can open up even more style possibilities.

Adding a necklace is perhaps one of the simplest ways to make a very major impact on how an ensemble appears. This piece of jewelry can create a variety of looks depending on several design factors such as length, thickness, shape and color. They come in many styles such as metal chains, pendants, strings of beads, pearls, gems or shells and a variety of other creative materials.

Some of the most beautiful pieces contain rhinestones, artificially created gems that often look very much like real diamonds and other precious stones. Their quality varies based on whether they are made from paste, glass or crystal quartz. Cut, clarity and light refracting ability are the three things that give each one their rating.

Paste and plastic are the most affordable stones of this type but they are also of the lowest quality and tend to be dull. Glass has a better shine and clarity, and run mid-range in price. Crystals, especially those made by the Swarovski company, are the most expensive option but they are impressively clear and have a sparkle that is almost identical to that of authentic gemstones.

Accessories made with these stones can be as elegantly simple as a single piece hanging as a pendant on a long chain. They can also be designed as extravagantly as any necklace worn by Hollywood's biggest red carpet stars. This option allows an individual to adorn themselves in as much sparkle and glitz as they desire, but at a price that is much easier to handle.

The amount of style variety one can find in the available selection of rhinestone necklaces and other accessories is quite immense. Ranging from the most simplistic designs to those elaborate enough to be worn by royalty, there are pieces made to satisfy even those with the most discerning tastes. The affordability of this option gives anyone the chance to wear realistic looking jewelry with all the glamor and glitz they desire.
