Fall 2008 to Winter 2009 calls for the return of opulence where jewellery is concerned. Spring and Summer saw the beginnings of this trend with the heavy layering of silver chains around the neck and single wide cuff bangles on an arm. Fall2008 to Winter 2009 goes a step further, layering chunky pieces together for a totally lavish result.

This season, jewellery has gone chunky on all fronts. By all means wear your entire collection of bangles on one arm but leave out the rest of the jewellery, save the earrings. Or you could leave off the earrings and wear not one, but two or more chunky necklaces.

Choose one or two types of accessories and leave off the rest. Like an absolutely stunning pair of chandelier earrings with an armful of bangles. Or an armful of bangles and a gorgeous hair piece. Or several beaded necklaces and a cocktail ring.

The rest of your outfit should not compete with your jewellery. Such heavily adorned looks go beautifully with minimalist clothing, or simple outfit that are very well cut.

One point to note: chunky jewellery looks best on big or tall women who can carry them off. Avoid them if you are petite as you would look as if the jewels are wearing you, not you wearing them.

If you can carry chunky jewels, you will love our range at Avalaya store:

Minimalism returns in Fall/Winter 2008 and 2009. Clothes are simple and structured. There is a difference this time. Minimalist clothing is accessorized with stunning jewellery.

It makes sense. Simple clothing remarkable because of their cut and fabric are given and added boost by the addition of a single stunning Crystal necklace that really stands out. Costume jewellery, or bijoux de couture was once handmade in 1960s exclusively by jewelers for very rich, private clients. Fast forward to 2008 and 2009. Costume jewellery just as stunning is available to everyone. The best are made of crystals(Rhinestones, Swarovski Crystals) like these: check our endless range for Crystal Jewellery in Crystal Section:
