Step 1
Adding a necklace to your outfit is definitely one of the most popular jewelry choices out there. Since they come in so many different varieties there is literally a necklace for every occasion. Lately fashion has been driven more towards the large chunky necklaces that really stand out. These necklaces are good with evening wear, for a night on the town. For the work place especially if you work in an office situation you will want to stick to something smaller, and more discreet such as a gold chain or a small locket.

Step 2
Earrings are the next most important accessory you want to utilize. Changing the way you wear earrings can change your entire look. If you are dressing for the office it is best to stick with smaller earrings such as studs or very small hoops. Save the big giant hoops for the club or a day out shopping with the girls. Large hoops often look great with flowing skirts and tank tops; the open shoulder will really highlight the earring. Many women are fans of what you might call dangly earrings. Whether these are sterling silver or beaded, they are often better suited for a night out to dinner with your spouse, when you are wearing a sleek dress or dress casual clothing.

Step 3
Beautiful bracelets are often overshadowed by earrings and necklaces. This is too bad really since a nice bracelet can really set off your outfit. If you are dressing for a night out in either a party dress or even jeans and a nice top you should try a large chunky bracelet. They come in every shape and size and you are sure to find one to match your outfit. You might also try several small-layered bracelets for a situation like this. If you are dressing in a pants suit or any other office attire it is best to stick with small discreet tennis bracelets or none at all.

Step 4
Finding a middle ground with wearing rings is often hard. They are great especially if you are looking for something to dress up a simple outfit, but they can also be over worn. Stay away from very large bulky rings. These will only distract from your outfit, not add to it. When in doubt while choosing a ring, remember that your wedding ring is always appropriate no matter what the outfit or occasion.

Step 5
It can be argued that hair accessories are not jewelry but in fact they are. They add to your ensemble and usually bring out the good points in your outfit. Sequined and beaded clips look great with any evening wear, as do jeweled barrettes, as long as they are not over used. For a relaxed and casual outfit or evening wear, headbands can be used in a lot of different ways! If you are truly adventurous, flowers can really add a lot of flair to a casual or evening outfit.
