Costume Jewelry For Fun And Fashion
from:Costume jewelry is jewelry that is made from much less valuable materials than precious jewelry. Many different types of costume jewelry are made from cheap base metals, plastic, glass and synthetic stones. Rather than using rare and expensive gems and stones, costume jewelry attempts the same look but at a fraction of the cost.
Coco Chanel is responsible for popularizing the use of costume jewelry during her boom years as a fashion designer in the 1950s and 1960s. The most well known example of this is the Chanel suit which consists typically of large faux gold buttons and is paired with a huge costume pearl necklace.
The Coco Chanel era had a massive impact on fashion for women around the world and her use of costume jewelry played a large part in making fashion simple and fun again. She let women feel like dressing could be more comfortable than corsets at the same time more attractive and certainly more fun with the addition of gaudy yet charming faux jewelry.
Costume jewelry is equally fun for having around the house for you and the kids. Kids of many ages love to play dress up and having a good selection of costume jewelry can flesh out your own costume wardrobe. Boys and girls alike enjoy dressing up to act out plays or just being silly.
I’ve had a lot of success finding great costume jewelry bargains at online auction websites. Sure you can find costume jewelry at many theater / costume stores, but many people don’t have access to these types of businesses. Even if you do have a costume store that sells costume jewelry in your area, I suggest checking out some costume jewelry auctions. The variety is truly astonishing.
I lucked out and found one seller that had all kinds of costume jewelry. I was able to pick up several types of necklaces, rings, and even some boas and hats to fill in my kids’ little costume collection. They were so excited to see the new costume additions that I’m sure I’ll be shopping for more costume jewelry soon.
