Latest Trends in Bridal Costume Jewellery

Every bride wants to be the centre of attention on her wedding day and it is therefore very important to her that she looks her best on this special day. When it comes to bridal costume jewellery, it needs to be tastefully chosen and worn in the proper manner. By doing this a bride can ensure that the bridal costume jewellery compliments her wedding dress and makes her look as stunning as possible.

Bridal costume jewellery is generally considered less expensive than jewellery made from precious metals and set with precious stones. It also provides an opportunity for a bride to buy jewellery that exactly matches her wedding attire. In the past only the lower rungs of society would go for bridal costume jewellery but due to the rising prices of precious metals and stones an increasing number of brides are opting for costume jewellery. There is such a wide variety of designs and patterns available in costume jewellery that it has been accepted with open arms by brides across the world.

Your jewellery should reflect the look and feel that you are going for so that whether your dress is modern, traditional, flowing, simple or old-world your bridal costume jewellery should reflect this. Also make sure you consider the neckline of your dress as an elaborate necklace can detract from your wedding gown if it is too fussy. Strapless wedding gowns are popular at the moment and can be perfectly matched with a gorgeous choker and fill in more skin so you don’t look too bare.

Below I will talk about some of the latest trends in bridal costume jewellery that will look amazing when paired with your wedding dress.

Bold, chunky and big jewellery sets are definitely on trend at the moment as well as separates like earrings, rings and bangles. If you decide to go for a large set of earrings you will need to make sure they are lightweight so as not to be uncomfortable and heavy on the ear. Antique jewellery sets are also popular nowadays.

Another popular form of Bridal Costume Jewellery is crystal jewellery. A wedding is the perfect occasion for sparkly jewellery, especially the hugely popular Swarovski crystal jewellery. You can follow the colour scheme of your wedding easily with crystal jewellery as you there is a rainbow of glittering crystals available. They would look fabulous on a necklace or bracelet and big finger rings and brooches are also popular amongst brides. Crystal bridal costume jewellery will accentuate your outfit and add a touch of elegance.

For those traditional brides who want to wear something blue, blue coloured stones and beads are very popular. A necklace and earring set made with topaz or blue sapphires will all help to make you look breathtaking while keeping that traditional element. Make sure you do not forget about your bridesmaids! You want your bridesmaids to match with your theme and style and jewellery is also a great way to say thank you.

The golden rule when choosing your bridal costume jewellery is not to overdo it. If you have a more elaborate dress then it is best to keep your jewellery simple.
