The old’s getting new. Close to throwing out old, rustic, oxidized jewelry? Don’t yet! You can mix and match and create an entirely new collection It’s pretty easy, but there are some things to keep in mind.
As always, don’t over do it. Vintage jewelry is all about those large, unique, special pieces and too much of that causes you to lose that ‘look’
If you’re building up a Vintage Jewelry collection, here’s what you can acquire:
- Brooches
- Pearl Layered Bracelets
- Gold Jewelry
- Lockets
- Longer necklaces with feathers and other unique attachments
- Pearl necklaces, tied up in a knot.
Typical stones that give you that vintage look are: pearls, rhinestone, quartz, Marcesite.
Vintage Jewelry goes with almost all sorts of outfits: Casual Evening wear to Formal Party wear. Gold necklaces go great with striped tank tops, and brooches can be worn on tops and dresses or caps.
Below are some affordable pieces you can buy to start off your vintage collection:
