  1. Don’t Overshadow Statement Pieces With Your Outfit

You need to make sure that you’re not overshadowing your statement diamond pieces with your outfit. For example, wearing a diamond necklace with a black dress is understated but will enhance our piece so much better. This doesn’t mean you have to wear a boring outfit, it just means making sure that nothing you’re wearing is competing for attention.

  1. In The Evening

Many people say you shouldn’t wear diamonds before 5pm. Why? Well diamonds look their most beautiful when the sun is setting. All of the colors can really stand out! You can get a good idea of what you will spend on quality diamonds buy looking at a site like http://www.diamondregistry.com/diamondprices.htm. The best, most high quality diamonds will be cut well and clear, so that when the sun sets they sparkle and show all of the colors of the rainbow.
3. Mix Your Items Correctly

Make sure you work on mixing your items correctly. You can’t just throw on every piece of nice jewelry you own, as you’ll look garish – maybe even like you’re trying to show off, but failing miserably. Here’s an example of some of the things it’s OK to wear together:

  • A ring, bracelet, and necklace.
  • Earrings, a bracelet, and a ring.

You should never wear pieces that clash – wearing a necklace and a brooch is never OK, as they just compete for attention. Sometimes, it’s OK to wear a necklace and earrings together, but they should be fairly dainty.
