Why do we use jewellery? The answer is simple.
Earrings, rings, bracelets, brooches — all these and other adornments allow us to change, add flavour to an outfit, set the mood and keep up with fashion trends.
Any outfit can be given a new look when completed with beautiful and stylish jewellery.
Costume jewellery is always relevant, suitable for absolutely any occasion and created to please us and amaze others.
Beach Jewellery
In Cyprus, where the beach season lasts from March to October, a bathing suit is a must-have, and even if you only have the one, it can be given a new look using the right jewellery.
The brightest ornaments will certainly fit the beach image, and you can smoothly move onto a beach party where you will shine, quite literally.
However, not all jewellery can withstand contact with salt water.
The ideal material for beach jewellery:
- beads;
- glass beads;
- shells;
- corals;
- pearls;
- natural stones;
- plastic.
Costume jewellery from nature and natural materials can be easily combined with the colour of a shawl, hat, sunglasses and swimsuit fabric.
Men give more preference to beach accessories — waterproof watches, sunglasses, bandanas, caps or hats.
