We all like to get new clothes but when you are fighting against the credit crunch it is sometimes hard to afford new things. That is when it is good to look out for great accessories that can change the look of a tired outfit in no time at all. The best thing to do this, and not leave you too out of pocket, is jewellery.

When buying jewellery most people want styles to be versatile so that they are easy to mix with their clothing or may simply want to update their jewellery collection. Many companies like to source jewellery that reflect their values and image and therefore it is often a good idea to look around stores, get a feel for what image they are trying to sell and to see if their values fit yours. Alternatively you could just mix and match and make a unique style by wearing clothes from one store and jewellery from another making a more of a statement with your look.

When looking for jewellery it is a good idea to look at the origin of the pieces. Many companies feel that it is a good idea to focus on this and so work with suppliers who they share a long standing relationship with. This enables them to concentrate their sourcing with ethically run factories and who produce beautiful pieces for their customers.

Most companies source individual pieces with the aim to create an eclectic range ensuring that there is a mix of contemporary and ethnic. Retailers want their pieces to look different to other retailers with an exotic feel in vibrant colours. There are also high end fashion retailers who especially aim to work with handcrafted pieces in natural materials as much as possible. This aims to have looks that appeal to all age groups and pieces for all occasions.

If you buy from a reputable retailer they will also do quality checks at source in all of their factories and in their warehouse on delivery. To ensure that the jewellery you get is perfect for any occasion they will also test products during the approval stage. This season will see an increase in the amount of jewellery worn with autumn/winter outfits and now is the best time to get your sparkly and Christmas jewellery in before everything gets way too tacky. Look out for statement pieces such as bib necklaces, asymmetric components, chandelier earrings and cocktail rings and you will be the belle of any ball.
