Platinum Gemstone Jewelry

January 12th, 2012

White gold and platinum are now the most popular precious metals for gemstone jewelry. Learn about the differences between these two metals.

The most popular precious metal for fine jewelry is 18K gold. Since pure gold (24K) is too soft for most jewelry, 18K gold (75% pure) provides the best combination of gold purity and practicality. 18K gold is manufactured in a range of colors, including yellow, white and rose. White gold is created by combining gold with white metal alloys such as silver and palladium and then plating with rhodium. Rose gold is produced by increasing the ratio of copper alloy.

Some gemstones, such as ruby, are thought to look best when set in yellow gold. Others, such as blue sapphire, are often preferred set in white gold. White diamonds look whitest when set in a white metal. There has been a definite trend towards white metals in recent years for all kinds of gemstones and diamonds.

White gold can easily be confused with another white metal, platinum. Platinum is also popular for fine jewelry and is often regarded as the most luxurious of the precious metals. Unlike gold, platinum is strong and hard enough to be used in its pure form, and platinum jewelry is usually stamped “950 Platinum”, indicating that it is 95% pure. Platinum is usually alloyed with 5% iridium, palladium or ruthenium.

Platinum is a very dense metal, even denser than gold. And since it is used in an almost pure form, platinum jewelry is noticeably heavier than 18K gold. Platinum is also a much rarer metal than gold, and its price has historically been substantially higher. Only recently has the price of platinum fallen below that of gold. Since the weight of platinum in a piece of jewelry is higher than the weight of 18K gold in a similar piece (because of platinum’s higher density and the purity of the metal used), platinum jewelry is usually much more expensive than 18K gold.

The color of platinum is whiter than unplated white gold. But much platinum jewelry is also rhodium plated to achieve the super high polish typical of rhodium. Some jewelry designers are now using brushed or matte finishes with unplated platinum in their jewelery.

Platinum is valued for its durability and strength. Though platinum can be scratched, it tends not to wear away, and platinum jewelry will usually outlast gold. Platinum is ideal for the prongs that hold a gemstone in a setting, since platinum is strong and stable when set in position.

Hip Hop Women Fashion

January 11th, 2012

Hip hop culture is the product of African-Americans incorporating a distinct taste of break-dance, music, graffiti art, beatbox and fashion. In a world that admits to the existence of a thin line that undervalues women and more so, black women, hip hop became their salvation. It has been their self expression, a face they wear with dominating and contagious vibrancy.

Hip hop women clothing accessories are identified with a slick, relaxed manly style. The key to this women fashion accessory is not just the funky trainers or trucker caps nor to the hoodies or polo shirts that make them look masculine. It is always the attitude of wearing it. The urban accessories can only imitate a tough and rugged look but the feel of hip hop is how girls bring that impression.

Fashion for women has always been restricted to the prim and proper, the slim cuts, the somehow reserved, the cute, petite and even ranges to the complex, luxurious and extravagant. What hip hop women fashion accessories brought was a new way to present and express the manly them. It generally defies the common gentle and sophisticated nature of women clothing accessories and introduced a more nonchalant parade.

Urban accessories have also changed to fit the more sturdy appearance of women. What is probably the most popular among hip hop women clothing accessories are fitted caps which differ from the usual designs in baseball. It has no elastic or Velcro. They were meant to fit all sizes. Fashion also requires the right footwear which of this trend are sneakers with bright colors and intricate details. Old school foot gear is also preferable with its simple pattern and a sort of grubby look.

Bling-bling are so in with women fashion accessories. The flashy earrings ornament the head along with proud hairdo or a necessary hairpiece. Oversized pendants and elaborate jewelry also a must with women clothing accessories. Loosely fit large-faced watches are also a popular choice as well as the big sunglasses which have really caught on for a long time now.

Hip hop women fashion accessories are the pure impression of the African American culture. It is the shadow of the longing for impartiality. It does not hide under the guise of strength but brings out beauty through the sturdy attitude of the one wearing it. The fashion combined with the music, the dance and the art truly make up the hip hop women.

Plus Size Teen Fashions

January 10th, 2012

For years, plus size teens and young adults had little in the way of choice for fashionable, youthful clothing. They were forced to shop at “fat” stores, and find the least conservative styles at the “plus size ladies or guys” store. Manufacturers and retail stores would call all their plus size clothing, “teen friendly” when in reality the large flower print smock type blouses didn’t even really appeal to old ladies! It took years for the s/m/l designer mindset to realize that the majority of women and men, let alone teens aren’t s/m/l.

Plus size pre-teens had it even worse. At that awkward growing stage, pre-teens had to buy jeans that were way too baggy, long and shapeless and even with alteration, they would grow out of them quickly. Swimming suits for pre-teens went to size 14 or 16 if they were lucky, and they were never sized properly or attractive. JC Penneys and Sears were about the only common brick and mortar stores with some choice for plus size pre-teen and plus size teen fashion. And of course, back then in the 80s and early 90s there wasn’t an internet and catalog companies didn’t cater to plus size teens either! Going back further, the fashion world all but ignored plus size people in general. There might be one large size store in town and the mumu house dress and the boxy navy suit were all they carried. Plus size teenage girls in the 50s and 60s had to resort to wearing men’s jeans and slacks and shirts in order not to look like a 60 year old grandmother. The 70s brought an appreciation and realization that one size did not fit all, and jean companies began to stretch their line to size 18 and 20 with some fashionable choices. Richard Simmons came on the fashion scene in the early 80s and brought a recognition that plus size women and men were people too and might want some style in the wardrobe. But it still took another 20 years for fashion to embrace a teenage, youthful plus size look.

 

This notion that plus size teens would rather hide because of their weight problem and then not need fashion is being replaced with the realization that with body acceptance comes a greater ability to deal with weight issues. Again, stars like Oprah, Tyra and plus size model Emme have consistently asked for change in the way society treats plus size teens and adults. Slowly our image of a beautiful woman or attractive man isn’t limited to skin and bones, but includes all shapes and sizes. This new, healthy way of looking at size and style will ultimately help plus size teens feel better about themselves both mentally and physically. Hopefully the fashion world will embrace these new body types and retail possibilities and continue to expand their lines with plus size clothing actually made just for plus size teens.
