Most women know about using shoes, purses and scarves to accessorize the clothes that they wear but may be overlooking one important accessory type. Ladies statement jewelry can look beautiful and can really change the look of an outfit quickly and effortlessly. If you have been curious about how to use these pieces to change the look of your clothing, here is what you need to know.

When women first start looking for these items, they may be surprised at how much selection there is. They may wonder how to choose the right materials, colors and metals that will look best on them. If this is the case with you, the best way to find colors that suit you is to try on many different pieces if possible. You will quickly get a sense for the proportions that will look right on you as well as the hues that look good with your skin and hair.

One problem that many women have is choosing clothing that will work well with their jewelry. Some may choose clothing with a very busy pattern or which has a color that will not work well with the color of the beads or the metal in their jewelry. Keeping your look as monochromatic and neutral as possible will help ensure that this does not happen. People will be drawn to look at your jewelry rather than trying to figure out what to look at first.

If you live in New York, NY you may be tempted to wear multiple statement pieces at the same time. Unfortunately, this is often not a good idea. It can leave you looking overwhelmed and smothered by your jewelry. Try limiting yourself to one statement piece while keeping the rest of your jewelry as understated as possible.

Necklines are also important things to think about especially if your statement piece is a necklace. For example, someone who is wearing a turtle neck or high neckline will benefit from wearing a long chain or string of beads. Lower necklines do well with necklaces that are shorter and which will rest above the upper line of the top. Try reflecting the shape of your neckline in the shape of the beads or pendants that you wear.

Some women have found ways to wear their statement pieces in new and unexpected ways in order to get more life or use out of them. You may want to try taking a strand of beads and wrapping it around your wrist several times in order to create a bracelet. Some chains may be able to do double-duty as a belt.

Statement pieces are not hard to find. They can be located in many clothing shops or in stores that focus on women's accessories. Try looking online as well if there is a particular piece you like but which is out of your budget. You may be able to find some great deals on certain websites. Just remember to factor in any shipping or exchange fees to ensure that you are getting a good deal if you are buying items online.

Caring for your pieces is also important. Some materials such as natural pearls can be damaged by cosmetics and by oils that your skin emits. Looking after even inexpensive pieces will extend their lifespan and keep you looking your best for years and years.
