Choosing Artisan Jewelry by Outfit or Personality
I was once asked by a reporter doing an article on artisan jewelry and fair trade if you should choose a piece of unique handcrafted jewelry to match your outfit or your personality.
My answer to this question is BOTH.
The whole outfit is a reflection of who you are. If it doesn’t suit your personality you won’t feel confident or even comfortable wearing it.
A piece or several pieces of artisan jewelry can be the beautiful finishing detail to the outfit and can really make or break a look. These details make a woman look stylish, polished or trendy, depending on what look she is striving to achieve.
Another reason to choose artisan or fair trade jewelry over mass produced jewelry is the added confidence and sense of pride you get from knowing you supported an artist. An artist who may be struggling to support themselves and their family as well as trying to preserve traditional jewelry artistry.
So choose a beautiful piece or two of unique handcrafted jewelry that suits both your outfit and your personality and wear it with pride.
