While I love gorgeous valuable pieces for the sentimental attachment I develop with them over time, I love the fake stuff for the fun they bring to a wardrobe. I believe "dress" jewelry is an art form in its own right. It is a delicate balance between not trying to pretend to be the real thing, not looking too cheap, and embodying a certain amount of whimsy and artistic cache. Not an easy twist to balance.
While there are many companies who fashion exceptional pieces of "fake" jewelry, my most recent favourite happen to be Forever 21 because they strike that ever important balance between style and price. After all isn't it always more fun to be able to play with more toys, rather than a select few?
To say their jewelry line is VAST, is an understatement. There is a truly something for everyone, and all of it is a big load of fun! You can browse the extensive selection online. Some of you may be hesitant to purchase these kinds of items over the internet, even if they are exceptionally inexpensive... I would offer that they are very accurately represented. From the way the items look on the magnified image to the description of their actual size, you will not be surprised with the item once it gets to you in the mail. While they do have the very same jewelry in their store, personally I find looking through the mass of twisted chains and such in the stores entirely overwhelming and underwhelming, and overall uninspiring. However, I have marvelled at the amazing lots I have ordered online, and have gotten plenty of compliments for them.
Take a walk on the lighter, funner, easier side of life, and enjoy the bling of it all ;)
