Prom Season Jewelry Picks
24 03 2006Prom Season is quickly approaching and it’s never to soon to start preparing. The prom is a special night that you’ll want to remember and that often requires a lot of work! Once you’ve picked out the perfect dress for the prom, you’re ready to start thinking about the accessories to complement your ensemble. Before you start shopping for the perfect necklace or earrings, you’ll want to think about the kind of “look” you’re going for. Usually most prom dresses fit into one of three catagories: “Classic Glamour and Royal”, “Clean and Modern”, or “Fashion Maverick”.
Today I’d like to share with you some great jewelry picks for the “Classic Glamour and Royal” look. I’ll write about the other styles in upcoming posts.
If your prom dress is long, flowy, and elegant, then you’re probably going with the “Classic Glamour and Royal” look. This brings to mind the high style of a Hollywood red carpet event or an evening at the opera. It’s a good idea to pick a matching set of earrings and necklace or at least pieces that coordinate well in style and color. You may also want to add more sparkle with a flashy ring or bracelet. The ideas below may very well be outside of a teen’s budget for the prom but they’ll give you an excellent idea of how to accessorize a regal look.
These 3 carat diamond earrings in 14K white gold are a perfectly royal in every way. The dazzling diamonds are set in lavish white gold. It is a wonderful look for the prom of your dreams.
Another much more budget sensitive option for the classic glamour look are these 1/4 carat diamond teardrop earrings. For just $195, you can buy this pair of real diamond earrings to match your perfect night. The teardrop shape is a hallmark of class and refinement.
This beautiful diamond and pearl necklace is both dramatic and delicate. The diamonds will add fire and romance to your prom ensemble while the pearls will contribute refined elegance.

This cubic zirconia and sterling silver tennis bracelet will help complete the glamorous and royal look that you’re trying to achieve. This bracelet will look stunning paired with both white or black satin gloves on your big prom night!
