Wear Jewelry Like Eva Longoria

Okay, so we know that Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria is gorgeous no matter what jewelry she wears. In fact she could probably dangle a pair of old sneakers from her ears and get away with it. but we're willing to bet that that's because she knows how to make those tennis treads look their best, and not the other way around. Keep a few simple tips in mind and we'll double our bet that you can make the most of your jewelry too.
1. Settle on a Hairstyle
Have you ever seen Eva unclip an elegant updo mid-red carpet? Or swoop her locks into a ponytail halfway through a Spurs game? Neither have we. Nor do we expect to anytime soon, due to a fact that the rest of us fidgety, hair band-toting ladies seem to have forgotten: To settle on a hairstyle before you leave the house means that not only will your hair-free hands convey confidence and allow you to hold a cocktail or two, you will also have the advantage of choosing jewelry for that hairstyle in front of a mirror. While we're at it, may we suggest that when your hair is down, feel free to wear something a little more shiny and showy, so that it is not lost underneath the tresses. On the other hand, err on the simpler side when your ears and neckline are exposed. Too much bling will take away from the real gem (you).
2. If Going Big, Go Beautiful
Eva's prominent cheekbones and oval face shape combine to create negative space along her chinbone where long dangles and big hoops can hang free. Here, bigger earrings lend length to her face (where shorter ones would have the opposite effect), but there is a risk in that any large piece of jewelry inevitably draws a lot of attention. Thus, we doubt that Eva ever just throws any old earrings in and goes. Rather, the earrings she chooses have three things in common: they are confident, graceful and of earthy stones like chalcedony and citrine...characteristics that many would also attribute to Eva herself. This combination results in accessories that complement, not overwhelm, the face they hang from.
3. Simple Can Be Striking
Recently, Eva was photographed wearing a large Green Quartz and layered gold chain pendant necklace. Pendant necklaces provide an opportunity for personalization that other necklaces don't because gemstones come in all shapes, sizes and colors. So if green makes your skin look sallow, choose coral or topaz instead. If you prefer a single, sterling silver chain, go for it. The point is not to copy Eva exactly, but to embrace the elements that make it work - the bold grace of a single, visible stone, enhanced but not overwhelmed by a delicate chain, will only be outdone by your own radiant face.
4. The Engagement Ring
Just to be clear, we doubt that many of our readers are about to receive a ring made of 148 diamonds, or for that matter, marry an NBA star. But we do expect you to feel like a celebrity during your engagement, and we think the trick is making the bling as personal as Eva and Tony did. Eva's darker toned skin cries out for diamonds, so it makes sense that the ring would boast so many. Another option would be to choose a light metal, like sterling silver or platinum, for the band. If your skin is already white enough, then flank the diamond with a couple of small, darker gemstones and a gold band. This will make the diamond pop, no matter its size.
To take it one step further, Tony's handwritten message was engraved inside the shank of the ring. We suggest a comparable, but less pricey italicized inscription on the inside of the band. Think of it as a private message that your finger can read day after day.

How is Landstrom's Black Hills Gold Jewelry Made


>You can use this tool above to translate the articles in this site, by copy paste the paragraph  on  
         the box above,choose the language you wish for translation and hit the translate button.....

The first thing that has to be done is to find, pan or dig gold ore. The ore is then separated from the foreign material such as rock and dirt. After the gold is separated it is melted and poured into bars. At this point it is usually 24kt. 24kt gold can not be used for jewelry because it is too soft and will not hold it's shape too good. At the 24kt stage you can dent the gold with your fingernail. To use gold for jewelry it must be alloyed with other metals to harden it. This process is called smelting.
After the gold is alloyed with another metal it is tested for kt weight. 10 kt gold is used for rings, earrings, necklaces, pendants and other pieces that will need to be harder to stand the abuse of time. The 12kt gold is used for decoration and is usually colored red or pink and green. Then the 14kt gold is used to make things such as engagement and wedding rings. Also when the pieces are made of Sterling Silver then it is the same process as the 10kt gold frames.
The first step is to design the piece of jewelry to be made. This process is up to the designers. The first design is made of wax so it can be re-sculpted and reshaped to meet the image that is to be achieved. Then the piece is subjected to a group of people that pick the pieces that is thought to be good pieces for the consumers preferences. After the pieces have been selected then it is time to start the production of that piece.
Now that the piece has been selected there are several of these pieces made of wax. This is the frame. The frames are attached to a wax stem. The stem or tree as some call it is ready it is coated with a heat resistant material to form a mold. After the mold hardens it is submitted to high heat to melt out the wax tree. When all of the wax is removed then it is time to fill the mold with 10kt gold to create the frames for the jewelry pieces. If the pieces are to be made of 14kt gold then 14kt gold will be used in this process. The mold is filled with melted 10kt gold and set aside to cool and harden. When the frames are cool the mold material is removed and the pieces are cut from the tree and cleaned of all burs and sharp edges.
Next is the adding of the 12kt gold leaves that have been stamped from a sheet of red or green gold. (the coloring of gold was explained in my last article). These pieces are soldered to the frame. After they have been soldered then the jewelry is dipped into 24kt gold to produce the lustrous coating. After the pieces are coated then they go to the engravers.
The engravers hand engrave the veins in the leaves and do any other engraving that is necessary for this piece. When the engravers are finished then the pieces go to the wrigglers. This is a process where between the veins on the leaves and on other parts of the piece the small engravings are made. This process is called wriggling. The wriggling gives the pieces more luster by reflecting light from all these small marks.
Next the pieces are polished and inspected to insure quality and durability. If the pieces do not meet the standards set forth by the original owner that started the company then they are destroyed (never sold as substandard or seconds). After the inspection is through then the pieces are carefully packed with the lifetime warranty from the company and placed in a safe place awaiting shipment.

Silver jewelry necklaces are the ideal accompaniment that can provide an extraordinary stroke of sophistication, brilliance and fascination to your overall look. They are sophisticated and eye-catching to the human eye. They represent a special art of self-expression, no matter what your personality may be. These pieces perfect the general facade, fitting for the neckline but with an astounding impression on the whole body form.
Pieces of silver jewelry may either be sterling silver, a type of silver element with 92.5% by weight of silver, or fine silver, which is 99.9% pure, so that you may know. However, since fine silver is typically too docile, the silver is ordinarily assorted with copper so as to reinforce its metal. Even so, the jewelry carries on its attraction as a dear metal and its hardiness as a tough metal.
Silver jewelry necklaces go in scores of types and styles, each one fashioned carefully so as to appropriately match its wearer. Likewise, it is created in various finishes each with special techniques. One of these techniques is the high-polished method which electrifies the silver with a shimmering and sleek appearance. Also, there is the brushed finish technique which impresses upon the silver a textured look with the use of sandpaper-like material swept upon it.
Also the satin finish is employed in order to diminish the polished look and accentuate on the treasured gems that are decorated thereto. And there is the hammered finish, named so precisely because wavy textures are created after the silver is being literally hammered. Moreover, sterling silver jewelry may be layered with a small quantity of fine silver to pitch a more engaging finish.
Whatever figures chosen like that of faith with silver crosses, demonstrations of affinity for animals such as small pendants of horses or dolphins, or a skull-and-cross bone models for the more peculiar, these necklaces definitely provide a distinctive and gratifying sense of individuality. Also, these necklaces have different types like the bib necklace, and the very popular choker. And there are others like opera, princess, sautoir or rope, and the uniform necklace. With any style or type, it is not hard to find the particular piece that you may have in mind, for silver jewelry necklaces can be found just about anywhere, and have never gone out of style, eternally timeless and never out of date.



You would certainly look for the best accessories that would match your gown. Like for instance the silver jewelry necklace that comes in many different designs to suit your purpose. Looking beautiful and elegant is the most important thing that concerns you. You may visit here to have wonderful selections of this item.

3 Tips For Choosing the Perfect Engagement Ring

<

div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Choosing a ring can be a difficult choice, especially if the ring is for a very special occasion such as an engagement. With so many diamond rings to choose from, it can often be confusing and hard to find exactly what you want. In that case, a great option is to design your own ring.
Consider the style and design and get an idea of what you want
Look at the jewellery you already have. Everyone has their own style and the ring you are going to design should compliment your other jewelery and reflect your personal style.
If you are wanting something completely different to what you already have, go online and look at ring designs to get inspiration and an idea of different styles. Print out designs from the Internet that you like and bring these in to show the jeweler. This will be much easier than trying to describe them.
It is important to take your time to choose the style as it is something you want to be wearing for many years to come. Keep this in mind when designing your ring too.
Decide on the metal used to make the ring and the type of diamonds of precious stones you want
Also when choosing the metal you need to think of the jewelery you might be wearing at the same time as your new ring. Gold and platinum are popular choices for engagement rings.
You also need to choose the type of diamond or precious stone you want to feature in your ring. You may even want a pearl as the main feature of the ring. Researching online to see what diamonds and stones are available is a great way of searching for something that's right for you. You can also search and see the design of other rings and even incorporate some of their style into your own design.
Choose a jeweler you trust and can work with to create your design
Choosing the right jeweler is important because they will be making your ring and you need to feel comfortable and trust their judgment if any changes need to be made during its creation, which could happen.
If you search online for the jewelery who are convenient for you to visit you will be able to see which ones offer a customized service as not all jewelers will be able to do this.
Necklaces and earrings to match the ring
Now you have got the ring, why not make a set with matching earrings and a necklace? Some rings really stand out when paired with matching earrings and a pendant or necklace. If this is something you think you would be interested in doing, make sure you buy extra diamonds, pearls, precious stones and consult someone about their suitability of them to be made into complimentary pieces of jewelery.
I hope our tips have given you some great ideas about how to customize the perfect ring for you.

Bridal Jewelry Puts the Sparkle Into Your Special Day

Bridal jewelry can consist of many different types of jewelry. Wedding rings, engagement rings, wedding bands, and a host of other accessories such as pendants, necklaces, bracelets, and jewelry for men such as diamond studs, cuff links, watches and more can all be considered part of a bridal jewelry collection that will be worn by you and your wedding party on your big day. Fine jewelry is available at your convenience both online and at fine jewelry stores near you.
The focus of your search for wedding jewelry sets will undoubtedly be the wedding ring. Wedding rings come in a wide range of materials, and you will have a great variety of gemstones from which you will choose the focal point of the ring. Diamonds are the traditional choice, and they symbolize a lovely and long-lasting remembrance of your wedding ceremony and vows.
There are many options when it comes to the purchase of wedding jewelry sets of rings. The rings come in different types of metals. You might choose from gold or platinum. Once the metal for the ring is selected, you can then decide on whether you wish to choose from finished jewelry or a semi mount. Finished jewelry is what you will see displayed at jewelry stores, and as the name implies the ring has a gemstone mounted in place and is ready to be worn immediately. Semi mounts refer to rings that have open mounts, allowing you the opportunity to select a loose gemstone and have it mounted. With a semi mount, you can customize your ring more easily by selecting a gemstone of the color and cut that you prefer.
The diamonds showing prominently in diamond engagement rings and other components of wedding jewelry sets may consist of clear or colored diamonds. Diamonds can come in a wide selection of colors, adding an unexpected and pleasant surprise for the center of diamond engagement rings. Depending on the rarity of the color, colored diamonds can be in the same price range as clear diamonds or more expensive.



Diamond engagement rings are just one of the types of jewelry that you will wear on your wedding day. Depending on the neckline of your wedding gown, you might want to highlight it by wearing a diamond pendant necklace. A bracelet at the wrist that features diamonds will add a little more sparkle to the exchange of rings. You may also decide to give a great gift to your wedding party by getting matching necklaces for the women and matching cuff links for the men, which they can wear for the ceremony and then wear as a lasting remembrance of your appreciation. All manner of bridal jewelry can be explored at your leisure online, and then seen in person at stores so you can be sure that you like what you are getting.
