Accessorizing With Prom Jewelry Sets

By Ashlee Zilnicki


On a special night, why select prom jewelry sets other than what is meant for your particular ensemble. Similar to selecting an outfit, jewelry sets may seem identical but no two people will wear them the same. Because of this, it is important to select accessories based on your personality, preference as well as the occasion.

Diamonds and pearls offer the greatest variety. Typically worn in formal settings such as a black-tie affair they also fit well in semi-formal events such as pageants or a sweet sixteen party. It is best to buy this type of accessories in a complete necklace and earrings set. For example, pageant dresses are usually covered in jewels and gems. A set that does not match the dress will definitely stand out in a negative light.

Although prom and sweet sixteen jewelry are inexpensive, they should never look cheap. For example, a pendant necklace with hanging earrings is the perfect addition to any strapless dress. A choker with shaped earrings is a versatile piece that matches any type of neckline well.

For young adults, life is not simple, plain or uneventful. Because of this, the prom and pageant jewelry sets should not be uneventful, boring and plain. A layered or hanging necklace with stud earrings helps to elongate the neck. A single pendant is often the choice to add a bit of class to any dress. Generally, the desired look is achieved when the pendant matches the earrings.

Crystals, shaped diamonds and shaped necklace sets are among everyone's favorites. A floral necklace and flower shaped earrings are an example of a shaped necklace. Depending on the length of the necklace, they can bring attention to or draw attention away from the bust line. Longer necklaces that extend beyond the top of the bust can actually accent the waist of empire waist dresses. An exaggerated long strand of pearls that extends beyond the bust helps to lengthen the torso of an A-line dress.

Selecting the perfect accessories is important because a simple addition can take a look from simple to elegant. For example, empire waist and party dresses are the most popular dresses. A party dresses are designed to lengthen the torso while empire waist dress gives the illusion of a smaller waist. Pairing the party dress with long earrings that extend to the shoulders or a necklace that extends to the waist helps with the illusion of a lengthen torso. The opposite is true for an empire waist dress.

Shopping is a time for exploration. Available at an inexpensive price and nearly everywhere, searching for prom jewelry sets provides a rewarding experience. The shopper has the opportunity to explore styles that may not ordinarily catch their attention.
