When selecting a pair of earrings, it’s important two keep tow overriding factors in mind: the shape of your face and the nature of the occasion. An extravagant party or a fancy red carpet event calls for an elegant, sophisticated look. On the other hand, you don’t want to overdress or pile on the accessories for a casual night out or a day at the office. Once you’ve narrowed down your earrings based on level of formality, it’s time to take a look in the mirror.
Generally speaking, a round face is complemented by a long, dangling earring. The goal is to achieve equilibrium in terms of the image you project. In turn, small drop earrings suit a long face. If you have a prominent bone structure and your face could be described as square, some Swarovski crystal earrings are an excellent accessory. Remember to strike a balance between subtlety and uniqueness. How much would you like to stand out?
This guide will assist you in keeping your crystal collection beautiful and almost dust free as they are oftentimes the cornerstone of home decor. To help prevent dust from entering your cabinets and curios, apply weather stripping to the edges of the doors. When displaying your pieces, keep them back from the edges to prevent them from falling.
To clean Swarovski crystal figurines, wipe them with newspaper dipped in a solution of one part white vinegar to three parts water. Remove dirt from fine crevices using an inexpensive auto detail brush or soft toothbrush. The bristles are stiff enough to get into tight spaces, but soft enough not to damage surface.
