Posted by: diamondessence on: November 26, 2011
Many men dream about seeing the woman of their dreams wearing amazing looking lingerie and also delicate jewelry that she would keep on after the sexy outfit is removed during the hot act of making love.
What most women don’t know is that the right jewel worn with the right lingerie can do wonders for the reaction of a man in love.
Many of us saw on the movie screen or in the soft core red labeled movies, the combination of sexy lingerie and pearls combination which is not always fortunate.
If you want to look like an ingénue ready to be seduced you may of course choose a white lace bodice and a string of white or grey pearls.
If however you man desires a wild night adventure and black string and bra are the items creating your sexy look, a red pendant and a pair of red stud earrings are the right pieces to accompany this outfit.
On the other hand , if you plan to be a seductive temptress wearing nothing under a trench coat make sure you choose a Diamond Essence pear cut pendant to hang on a gold chain along your promising cleavage.
Remember that the clothes always come off during love making but nothing excites a man more then the look of the naked skin caressed by precious gems.
Winter Jewelry Trends 2011 – 2012
Posted by: diamondessence on: November 18, 2011
Every season of the year comes with its own trends both in clothes and jewelry, and the wintry cold months are no exception! Since its a time to be safely tucked in warm clothes, a chunky knit and matching jewelry would compliment each other!. The trends over the past years have been around the ‘bold and bulging’ variety with a hybrid of different metals and natural materials like sterling silver and stainless steel. The winter of 2011 – 2012 breathes the same air and it’s also a time of the year to use your antique and vintage collection and complete it with the new, in a thoughtful mix! In the 60s the brooches and pins were a key component to one’s own adornment, but now the necklace has taken a prime place.
Feathered headpieces, fascinating huge hoops and chandelier earrings that go 2 – 4″ down studded with rhinestones and diamonds, are bound to be a sure kill! Dyed leather cuffs and bold bracelets are generating much rave and the same thing happens when it comes to rings…. be it pearls, natural stones or novelty pieces! Pearls always exude glamour whether simulated or genuine, so use them to add to your ethnic and regional style this winter.
Pearls, age and who should wear them
Posted by: diamondessence on: November 4, 2011
Many of us are seduced by the image of 60’s something age when the mother of the house was cooking dinner in a spotless flared dress with a spotless apron , perfect hair sprayed hair and a string of pearls around her lovely neck.
This image may not sound very familiar for the new generations but in spite of that the pearls are seen as a sign of high life and why not aristocracy.
With the Gossip Girl generation wearing pearls seem to get back in trend and special looking outfits imitating the vintage style are the most craved company for the perfection of the pearls.
However, in spite of seeing a teenager like Blair Waldorf becoming a fashion Queen Bee wearing a string of pearls with her high school head band , this particular gemstones are mostly proper for a lady like outfit, a delicate cocktail dress or an evening gown that could underline the splendor of such a jewelry piece.
In spite of the misconception that anybody can wear pearls because it will , without a doubt, offer a certain distinction to that person’s look, the pearls are a little pretentious if not carefully managed.
A string of pearls would look lovely only with a flawless hairstyle, a nice dress or suit or simply with the most exclusive set of sexy lingerie.
Provided you dare, you can wear it naked but that would require a flawless body to underline the beauty of pearls.
Brides, pendants and pearls
Posted by: diamondessence on: October 31, 2011
So many future brides see the wedding reception as the moment when they can simply sparkle without any restrain. In many cases this is very true, but in the same number of cases, a future bride may try to overdo her look and add too much sparkle. Here are the basic rules of bridal jewelry and courtesy of Diamond Essence, here are the best tips on how to choose the jewels that will make you look like a princess.
Rule no 1: No more than one eye catcher.
If you don’t want people to stare at your jewelry and forget that you are perfect looking during your best day, avoid carrying more than one eye-catching piece. If you choose a sapphire pendant for something blue , or a string of culture pearls for a classy note, make sure you avoid spectacular earrings.
Rule no 2: Avoid blending the jewelry in.
Not everything must match everything in your outfit. If you choose an ivory dress you can opt for a different color of jewelry to sparkle at your wrist or in your ears. Avoid white in jewelry because they will make the dress look less than it is
Halloween and how to spark during the holyday
Posted by: diamondessence on: October 22, 2011
It’s fall again and with October we are getting close to the most nonconformist celebration of the year. We all love the Halloween parties, the idea of getting in costume and dress like villains or heroes but even then we are allowed to sparkle.
If you would ask who would bring diamonds to a Halloween party, you will get the answer: “celebrities do”.
What colors are proper for this task: black and red and for an angelic look the pearls are actually perfect.
If you plan to be a hot looking witch choose a spectacular pendant with a black or violet stone. Add a pair of earrings with assorted stones and anything black in your outfit will be even darker. A Halloween outfit will stand out with this type of jewelry.
Of course, many girls would love to be a sexy she devil. The presence of a ruby will sexify the outfit even further. Put the accent on your cleavage and make sure you look like a heartbreaker.
Be a black cat wearing silver or a vampire temptress wearing gold. In the end…jewelry is meant to make you look sexy in a scary night. 
What kind of engagement ring would you offer to a career girl?
Posted by: diamondessence on: October 15, 2011
At the best of times, choosing an engagement ring is tricky business. Will she like it or wont she, is the eternal worry most men have when choosing one. It can be even trickier when the girl happens to be a professional. The size and the style of the ring become important, as she will be wearing it for the rest of her life, everyday to office.
Huge rocks can cause trouble, as they seem to say she is not serious about the job and is bidding her time until she gets married or has kids. On the other hand, a very small rock may incite plenty of sympathy. An average sized stone is essential.
An engagement ring as a rule should be simple, as it is worn on a daily basis. Do not choose a cocktail ring. A cocktail ring can be very beautiful but it may not be the right thing to wear to the office everyday. In addition, a too huge ring, especially when you have limited means will have people gossiping that it is a fake!
There really is no point in stretching yourself to the extreme for that big impressive rock. You can always buy a simple ring within your means and add to it as time goes by. The stone is easily replaced with diamond of a higher quality with time or one can even add baguettes to it.
Flower designs and jewelry
Posted by: diamondessence on: September 3, 2011
Many times over the many years we are designing jewelry, we noticed a periodical come back of the flower design.
An extremely traditional one, extremely girly and utterly sweet the flower design pretty much lingered through all the trends that swept over the jewelry fashion.
The delicate design imitating nature remained successful and desirable through all the major currents and what is even more surprising, the notes accompanying it seemed to fit all age groups and even more all tastes.
Women remained the same romantics over the centuries and their taste for delicate looking jewelry encouraged jewelry makers to imitate the nature of flowers in the most spectacular combinations of precious metal and gemstones.
What is even more interesting is that the flower design is the most versatile one and that no matter what occasion would one want to celebrate with offering a flower a flower shaped jewelry would make a bigger impression.
It is true that nature has inspired the jewelry ever since the concept came to life. No surprise there since a beautiful flower can make an impression when placed in the hair of a beautiful girl.
A flower pendant can do that and even more. Diamond Essence took gemstones and precious metal and turned them in amazingly looking jewelry able to sparkle with the beauty of flowers but immortal by structure and style.
Gold vs. silver
Posted by: diamondessence on: August 19, 2011
Who wears gold and who wears silver?
Well …it is actually a matter of taste. With so many vampire movies setting trends of what teenagers should like, with a werewolf craze encouraging the fear of silver, one would think that silver jewelry would be far from being popular.
Actually it is quite the opposite.
If gold has always been considered as the metal of royalty, in the latest decades the gold trends started to dictate a major tendency towards the silver color known as white gold.
People seem to prefer the silvery color because it is more versatile. The combination of white gold or silver with a colorful gemstone adds a special touch to the gemstone. In the mean time the traditional yellow colored gold adds to the diamond structure a special kind of shine.
If gold has always been the metal of the rich and powerful, silver has always been the metal of the adventures, free spirited people ready to take on the next thrill or challenge.
It is true that it is a matter of taste and Diamond Essence knows this, however…the perfection of a precious metal jewelry lies in the craft rather than in the metal it is made of.
Ladies, style and pendants
Posted by: diamondessence on: August 5, 2011
Yes, a pendant is certainly a sign of class. So many women are looking forward to a new piece of jewelry and usually guys are finding proper to offer a pendant as a gift to the woman they love.
Statistically the pendants are about the most common jewelry gift offered with a special occasion. A man would say that it isn’t as plain as a bracelet or as spectacular as a ring but in the same time…perfectly proper to celebrate something worth celebrating.
Leaving this aside the question remains: what pendant fits what woman?
Tear shaped pendants are certainly the perfect fit for ladies with generous cleavage, daring hearts who are not afraid to be sexy. A gemstone tear is elegant, delicate and sensational from every point of view.
Star shaped pendants are the perfect fit for cerebral creatures, women not afraid of showing how intelligent and sophisticated they are. Such a pendant looks perfect at the neck of a fascinating business lady dressed in a perfect dress and ready for a business cocktail.
Round classic pendants are surely the most commonly seen. The classic shape makes them versatile as age is concerned and giving one to your daughter and one to your mother will be appropriate and welcome. The round shape is also the easiest to match with any possible outfit so any woman would enjoy such a pendant.
