A piece of statement jewelry can make a dirt cheap outfit look super expensive. The problem with some cheaper metal high street pieces is that after a few wears they turn a brown copper color or even worse leave your neck and fingers with lovely moldy color green marks! For a cheap long term investment I prefer chunky plastic jewelry as it doesn't age or show tell tell signs of wear and tear. You can find some really unusual shapes, some stunning colors and I love the way they catch the light.
Over the years I've found some really nice pieces in the sales and in charity shops.I have one black cocktail ring that I can wear with almost anything it cost around £2.00.
Some people when they hear the word plastic jewelry may shudder at the thought!It can conjure up images of the kind of bracelets you used to wear when you were five or something you would find in the bottom of a cereal packet. Fear not ,Chunky jewelry reoccurs frequently in fashion and well made plastic pieces are a good way to experiment with trending colors without having to make a huge financial sacrifice.
