Costume or junk jewelry can really complete your outfit. Unlike traditional gold or silver jewelry is lighter, trendier and less expensive. It is not only friendly on the pocket but also offers an opportunity to make a more personal style statement. Junk jewelry can be worn for short period of time for specific outfits and then discarded later as it goes out of fashion. Being made of less valuable materials they can be easily disposed of later.

Costume jewelry came into fashion in the 1930’s and since then it has been popular among many. The main use of such jewelry is for fashion; to complement a particular garment. Hence they are also termed fashion jewelry. Fashion jewelry is particularly popular among students who cannot afford the more traditional jewelry. But that is not the only reason for costume jewelry. It really gives the individual a unique opportunity to showcase his/her own style. A glass bead necklace, a rhinestone bangle, heavy metal junk jewelry, those dangling gem stone earrings – all can go a long way to add a dash of colour and attitude to your clothes.

Traditional jewelry does not match all occasions or outfits. But fashionable costume jewelry can accentuate your everyday clothes. Those junk accessories you picked up from the flee market or street side vendor can turn help create your own signature style statement.However not all costume jewelry is cheap. Designer labels have expanded to all encompass all sectors to fashion accessories and costume jewelry can also be custom made, sophisticated and expensive. Rich or poor costume jewelry has become a part of our everyday life.
