How to Choose Jewelry to Enhance Appearance

Just as jewelry can enhance or detract from an outfit it can also enhance or detract from your appearance. With so many styles to pick from, jewelry shopping can be very confusing but there's no reason to worry. Choosing the right jewelry to enhance your appearance is easy once you learn some beauty basics.

Instructions

1

Choose a necklace. A necklace that falls below the bust line but above the waist line will give you a taller appearance. Choker necklaces or those that sit on the collar bone and will minimize your height.

2

Pick earrings that compliment the shape of your face. It's a great way to use jewelry to enhance your appearance. Round faces should stay away from hoops or button-shaped earrings. Rectangular faces need to avoid long dangling earrings while those with a square face should look for round or hoop-shaped earrings. Heart shaped faces look best with earrings that have a triangular shape, and those people with oval faces can wear any type of earring to enhance their appearance.

3

Find the right ring style for your hand and fingers. Long fingers look best in wide bands with round-shaped stones, while shorter fingers look best in delicate rings with oval settings.

4

Look for bracelets to fit your size and bone structure. Petite women look best in delicate bracelets while average-sized women look great with wide bracelets. Women who are tall or full figured look best wearing several bracelets at once.
