Occasional Jewelry Ideas

One of the bluest, boldest, and richest of all stones, September-born ladies can consider themselves lucky to have such a brilliant birthstone as the sapphire! However, they may not feel so lucky when they see the price tag attached to genuine sapphire jewelry. The richness of the stone is matched by a cost that quickly climbs with the most desirable cut, color and clarity. But have no fear – CZ is here! FantasyJewelryBox.com offers a scintillating selection of these blue beauties in high-quality CZ set in sterling silver to bring jewelry that is neither costume nor couture – simply wearable, affordable, stunningly saturated polished pleasure.

Under $25

Nothing complements a classic ring quite like a classic bracelet! Our CZ Sapphire Tennis Bracelet makes a gorgeous gift for the lady that likes to keep it tasteful and timeless, while also keeping it fashionable and fresh. Our take on the tennis bracelet combines alternating stones of sapphire CZ and clear CZ for a total 6 ¼ carats, all set in precious sterling silver.

As summer winds down and discount stores begin filling their aisles with pencils and notebooks, we move closer to the time when the air fills with sounds of school bells and the streets become home to those big yellow buses. Ah yes, Back to School is upon us! And while it’s been a few years since I have done any back-to-school shopping for myself, I distinctly remember the rush of all those wonderful new things just waiting to be worn! I remember the importance of the absolutely perfect ‘First Day Outfit’, and the breaking-in period of a new backpack. I remember the brilliantly colored pens and markers, and the return of small bags of chips to the pantry for my lunch. But being a jewelry-lover through and through, I most acutely remember the new shimmer…the new shine…the back to school bling!

Instead of thinking of traditional ‘goes-with-everything’ jewelry to freshen up your gemtastic wardrobe, think instead of what you’ll actually enjoy wearing often. Sure, a simple pair of Cubic Zirconia Stud Earrings are pretty and practical, but if they aren’t really your style, you won’t wear them. Much like everyone’s closet is supposed to contain a white button-down shirt, we are told what our jewelry collection must contain too. But my closet doesn’t have a white button-down shirt, because regardless of how practical it is, I would never wear it! And even though they aren’t as obviously universal as a small set of studs, these Feather Earrings complement my clothes and my style much better. They also make me smile – invest in jewelry that makes you smile! There’s enough in life to be super serious about.

It’s also important to remember that you don’t have to buy a year’s worth of jewelry in one trip. Think of what might make more sense for Spring, and save that for your Christmas list. It will free you up to dedicate more attention to what you’ll be wearing for Fall and Winter, instead of trying to think ahead 7 months.

A FantasyJewelryBox.com Fall Favorite are these vibrant yellow leaf print Wooden Bangles. They have a fresh, organic edge, and work well with many styles of dress. Another seasonal sensation that will work wonderfully for Fall and beyond are these Tiger’s Eye Rings. A cool, cushion shape accents the large genuine stone perfectly, with faceting revealing a texture almost wooden in appearance. Set against a silvertone band, this ring will look amazing for school and the weekend!

Happy Back-to-School Shopping, and Best of Luck for a Fantastic New School Year!

Is there any stone as ravishing and radiant as the ruby? Bringing both the bold appeal of red, and a price tag that reflects it’s standing among the most precious of precious gems, the ruby is rich, rich, rich in every sense of the word. However, that powerful price tag leaves real rubies out of reach for many of us. Ruby cubic zirconia jewelry takes the same amazing appeal and makes it available to the masses. And FantasyJewelryBox.com just happens to carry a few pieces of Ruby CZ Jewelry to satisfy July babies and other ruby-lovers alike!

Among the most intricate, interesting pieces we offer, these Ruby CZ Rings are wonderful works of art.

Preparing for a job interview is without a doubt one of the most stressful events of our lives. Performing well is so important, as our job often dictates not only our quality of life, but our life overall – talk about pressure! However, don’t let the stress leave you walking out of the house with mismatched socks and accessories that are fighting for attention. It is key to not only choose the right interview outfit, but also the right kind and right amount of accessories to dress for success. Keep these 3 basic rules in mind when you are putting the finishing touches on an interview, conference, or business dinner ensemble, and you’re sure to shine!

Let Your Personality Show

Accessories are designed to show off your personality and tastes, so it’s important to remember to choose pieces that are going to highlight your professionalism or your creativity. Depending on the type of job you’re applying for, you may want to consider different jewelry styles. For positions that often deal with a lot of people, choose understated, Classic Jewelry pieces that enhance your outfit. For more creative industries, look for pieces with a little more pizazz.

Don’t Be Too Loud, No Matter The Position

While there is room for some sparkle, don’t assume that because a position is at a trendy art gallery you can go absolutely crazy with your baubles. If the position you’re applying for is more business-oriented, chances are you should dress for business as well. However, you can still show some originality without breaking the business barrier. Take our gold Dove Necklace as an example. It ‘employs’ clean lines as well as a stylish feel, looking fresh and modern, but not screaming for attention.

Moderation Is Key

As a jewelry lover, I know all too well the temptation to pile it on, and pile it high! However, a job interview demands some restraint. Keep your jewelry limited to two or three pieces that complement each other. Consider teaming our Belt Bracelet with our CZ Solitaire Earrings for simple sophistication! And don’t forget to be confident – confidence is your best accessory of all!
