Womens' fashion has changed with the times all throughout our history; every new era ushered in a new fashion. At first, it may have been that choices were as simple as "what fur do I wear with this fur today?" And the only problem with accessories was choosing which rope one would use to tie it all together and hold it on. But the fashion industry has changed dramatically over time. Most of us have lived to see several new fads come and go, for example the mini-skirt, hot pants, shoulder pads and the maxi-skirt just to name a few. It can be difficult to keep on top of all the latest trends. It seems that every time we turn around, someone has come up with a new idea or another old style has made a temporary comeback. And the fashion industry is only to happy to keep us supplied with as many new outfits as we desire!
Like clothing, jewelry fashion has evolved over the years as well. New ideas, advances in technology and new materials all influence today's popular jewelry. Beautiful jewelry is more than just an ornament, it has become a fashion statement in its own right. It provides a coordinating touch to the wardrobes of both men and women.
Today's designers have responded to the demand with breathtaking pieces. Sometimes we see these works of art adorning our favorite stars during special events. The price that they pay would take the average person more than one lifetime to afford especially if it is made with diamonds!
But we do have a choice. Cubic zirconia duplicates the glamorous look of expensive diamonds for a fraction of the cost which has made jewelry featuring this stone very popular. Thanks to its availability and low price tag, cubic zirconia could replace genuine diamonds as a girl's new "best friend" in the jewelry world. Jewelry made with cubic zirconia so closely resembles jewelry made with diamonds that only an expert can tell the difference and this makes these pieces even more desirable.
Like cubic zirconia, sterling silver mimics the look of its much pricier relative, platinum; and beautiful sterling silver jewelry has become a large part of the jewelry market. Silver has a charm all its own. It's cool color does not compete with stones or overpower the designs of the jewelry that it's made into. When paired with cubic zirconia, sterling silver creates a piece that is almost guaranteed to be a memorable and stunning creation. Silver has adorned the bodies of men and women for centuries; long before the advent of cubic zirconia. And yet silver is surprisingly affordable which makes it easily available, popular and wearable by just about anyone. Today's jewelry stores often carry a large selection of pieces made with this precious metal.
When silver is set with cubic zirconia, the result is a piece of art that is affordable but well worth any price. Smart women love this kind of combination and collect it with great fervor. The two materials are a perfect compliment to each other, and cubic zirconia also comes in virtually every color imaginable for those who prefer to wear colored stones. Whether clear or colored, a cubic zirconia set in sleek sterling silver is a great fashion choice of lasting beauty and quality.
