Why are earrings the most important piece of jewelry? By significant I mean the part that will do more for your appearance. As with all jewelry it should blend with your overall look fabulous. You do not want people to comment first on your great jewelry and then you. Your overall look is what needs to be attractive, then post comments on how you look fabulous, they can record your cool jewelry.
Earrings are what frames your face, so the color and style are right they are like two spots to add a glow to your face, making it brighter and more vivid. In Overall, an earring with a decoration on the front of the post on the hole receives the reflected light from right point. Earrings with a shepherd hook usually start with a more low and if an earring heavy, it also shows drag on the lobe, are more suitable for sportswear. Some, especially older women will probably look much younger if they are not of this type at all. There is nothing attractive about an earlobe flaccid.
Watching the Oscars in 2007, on the carpet red, almost all of the earrings were worn decorated the front of the post, very few wore earrings shepherd's hook. Most earrings at the Oscars were quite elaborate, but not too much. Some, like Nicole Kidman only wore tiny studs.
Little has changed over the last two years. Here are some examples from the Emmy Awards 2009 – which by some groups voted among ten the best dressed.
Olivia Wilde – Falls by 1.5 inches with an earring GEM puncture and the other the end of the drop.
Rose Byrne – Flower-shaped button style
Kate Walsh – A small-scale hoop
Kristin Chenoweth, earrings
Mila Kunis – more piercing stud with a huge chandelier drop
Heidi Klum on the large button hole and a long cloth shoulder.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus – Stud keener a chandelier of short —
Christina Applegate – Earrings
Tina Fey – more piercing Stud with a drop of 1 inch and a pearl round bottom
January Jones – Small stud with a drop of 1 inch and a large round rock in the end.
From the examples above, none of these well-dressed women had exposed the holes. A May concluded that, particularly for clothes dressed, do not expose the holes in the lobes.
The history of earrings seems to date back to ancient times. The examples found in the old countries were almost all a variation of the hoop earring, a style that is still popular today. In Cyprus, from the middle of the 2nd millennium BC the popular earrings were painted clay shaped stylized female nude. Earlobes are pierced 2 or 3 times and large terracotta hoops suspended them.
In ancient Egyptian jewelry is an important part of the costume, worn by men, women and children. Jewelry was also used to adorn the statues. The earrings were in a different style hoop. Earlobe piercing were evident and earlobes were often extremely stretched and distorted by the use of ear ornaments heavy early childhood.
From the late 4th century BC, earrings are becoming more sophisticated in design. Loops Earrings were often suspended pendants and chains. Filigree, granulation, leaf, rosettes and doves were all used to decorate the boat or lower half of the hoop.
During the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, it was a lean period for earrings due to fashion high collar and cap, which often covered the ears. It took centuries until around the 1530s to the earring to resurface as hair and hairstyles changed. New earrings were shaped circles of pure gold with a pearl drop. It took until 17th century earrings started to make a real renaissance, again, they often contain pearls.
By the mid 17th century earrings were an essential and they have become more complex and interesting. They used ruby, pearls, emeralds and enamel in floral motifs.
18th and 19th centuries saw some beautiful and elaborate designs, often using semi-precious stones. Also diamonds and pearls and highly complex technical goldsmith.
In the early 20th century around 1910 to 1930 Art Deco style was popular. Around this time ear piercing began to be thought of as barbaric, and clamping earrings lobe with screw connection became popular.
1947 saw the new feminine look of Dior. This set the stage for the design of future ear to demonstrate a new creatively.
1970s saw the development of ear become larger and more varied. The circles were still popular back demand, several of these circles were adorned with precious stones.
Then in the late 1970s, ear piercing began to become popular again. This trend continued until today, when almost all women, many men and children have their earlobes pierced.
Today's styles are very diverse from studs to take towels. The very elaborate and costly to the economy. Fortunately, the economic earrings can look almost as good as some of the more expensive ones. This is partly due to technology and quality of the artificial gems that can be very beautiful. For example, zircons, which is made from minerals and resembles much more expensive diamonds. Cubic zirconia is not as hard as diamond, but it can be cut and faceted in the same design that diamond can be cut. They can be stained to look like rubies, emeralds, sapphires or any other stones. The choice is to you, try all styles and see which is best for you. Enjoy your earrings and look fabulous.
