Jewel School, Part 2
Once you have separated your jewelry and know what you have, decide which pieces you definitely want to keep. It is important to keep a few staple pieces that will go with any outfit for any occasion.These pieces will stand the test of time and often become family heirlooms.
“Every woman needs a few staple pieces,” Ashley Davis says. “First is a diamond pendant, whether it is a solitaire, a cross, a heart, whatever you like. Next would be diamond studs or many times diamond hoops and a diamond tennis bracelet. As for hands, that is typically a bridal set, or if you’re not married, then a beautiful right hand ring or sentimental piece. Strive to hit those major points on the body like the neck, hand, ear, and wrist.”
Anything you are not in love with, decide whether to donate to a worthy cause, pass on to a loved one, scrap the material for money, throw away, or appraise it to sell.
