Rhinestone Earrings For Any Outfit

By Marci Glover


The easiest way to get an outfit to most accurately fit the occasion is to use the right accessories. Even the most basic of little black dresses has the potential to transform into an elegant look for a formal dinner, become a respectable garment for paying funerary respects, or to transform into a funky little party frock. The addition of a scarf, shoes and jewelry, especially rhinestone earrings, can make the difference.

This is an accessory that can be extremely versatile. Depending on size, design and color, they can be very simple and understated or they may become quite the showstoppers. Whether in the form of studs, hoops, dangles or a more unique design, this type of jewelry has been used throughout the ages to accentuate the ears.

Rhinestones are an integral part of many accessories. Some of them are so finely crafted that they can be made into a near perfect reproduction of practically any gemstone known to exist, or they may be fashioned into something completely unique. This level of versatility allows a jeweler more leeway in creative designs.

This type of stone can be made from several different materials including paste, plastic, glass and crystal. Each of the various mediums comes with its own set of pros and cons. Because of this versatile nature, there are products made in this style that are appropriate for people of all ages and tastes.

The products made from paste and plastic are on the lower end of the quality scale. These are primarily used in making children's jewelry, for crafting projects and other items that do not require a very realistic appearance. These materials do not have the ability to refract light so the gems made from them do not have any actual sparkle, though they can be made in very vibrant colors of all hues.

Glass is a mid-range medium in all aspects including quality, clarity, color and price. Items of this type are more durable than their plastic or paste counterparts, they hold color well and though they can not reflect light on their own, a small sparkle may be achieved by applying a metallic backing. These stones are generally used for costume jewelry and more advanced projects.

At the top of the product line are the stones that are cut from actual lead crystals because of their ability to be crafted into something that looks so much like the real thing that most people can not tell the difference. One thing that makes them desirable is the fact that they do refract light and give off a radiant sparkle. Though they do cost a fair amount more than the other types of rhinestones, they allow people to have accessories that look like genuine gems at prices that are still affordable.

Regardless of the type of stone one prefers to use, the range of design possibilities is virtually endless. Whether the gems are used to accent another material or if they function as the focal point of the piece, they can easily bring an outfit together for a finished look. Because of the various substances used to create them, there are products that will fit most any budget, complement the full gamut of fashion preferences and satisfy even the most those with high quality expectations.
