Designer Jewelry Gems

We now live an age where it is more and more difficult to retain a sense and appearance of individuality. Do you crave to stand out from the crowd and let your own personality shine through? Do you feel hemmed in by what others consider ‘fashion’. Could an answer be to go Gothic? Sometimes by re-visiting the past you can discover and re-invent a forgotton world from long ago. That’s where choosing gothic jewellery can help you to jump out of the box and become you. You don’t have to be one of the crowd anymore.

Gothic jewelry takes us back to a medieval era where people wanted to look mysterious, unorthodox, and sometimes even wild. There were no rules or boundaries, nobody to force their idea of what fashion should be or to brainwash you with what was supposedly ‘in’. If you look at gothic jewelry collections of bracelets, bangles, black pendants, black necklaces and pandora style charms they shout out ‘individuality’.

Using stainless steel, sterling silver and leather as a base and then adding personalized engravings, intricate designs, stones and beads, they will accentuate how you want others to see you as a person. The Gothic style also makes the pieces extremely tactile, you will often find yourself feeling the jewelry and others will be unable to resist a closer look or even a touch.

Gothic jewelry is all about highlighting your character and personality, amplifying your physical attributes. As you choose gothic jewelry consider your hair color, and your eyes and skin, what will work for you? Do you suit small or large pieces of jewelry? Remember, the reason behind Gothic jewelry is to help you feel attractive, different, confident, stylish and individual. Follow the wild side of your personality. There are no rules, you can wear it with anything, you can wear it at anytime, and you can even find new ways of wearing it. Who says a necklace has to be worn around the neck or a bracelet around the wrist. Be adventurous, be Gothic.

Take a moment and look back at pictures of the Gothic period and you will perhaps uncover totally new ideas of how to wear jewelry. Often people think it was all about darkness and doom, it wasn’t at all. It was an exciting period when individuals wore whatever they wanted, the individual ruled. At times Gothic Jewelry was another option to being fully clothed, a decoration to adorn areas of bare skin, to exaggerate and show off your best features, gorgeous hair, necks, arms, legs, hands, feet, ankles, wrists, eyes, facial features. Remember Gothic means no rules, it’s your body, your personality, you make the decison of what you want to be at all times.

By using different pieces of gothic jewelry you are not even restricted to one look, experiment with different pieces. Whatever you dress in – bikini, trunks, jeans, t-shirt, party dress, business suit, uniform – there is Gothic jewelry that will make you stand apart from others. It doesn’t even have to be that noticeable, but people will see there is something different about you and wonder why?
