It's different for different people, and for a woman it's important to look as good she wants to look. But you don't need to do it for someone else or to impress some male out there. You do it for your own sake. You wear what makes you feel good, you put make-up and jewellery - whatever gives you self-confidence.

You can change the look of an outfit so easily by changing the kind of jewellery you wear. If you have a basic outfit on - a black sweater and skirt or a simple black dress - you can go from the office to a cocktail party at night just by changing your jewellery. It helps if you change your shoes as well.

Each piece of jewellery tells a story of my life. Picking one particular piece as a favorite would be like taking a chapter out of a book.

Different cultures treasure different types of jewellery, often with historical significance.

Cultural Value

Jewellery can be made from various materials, and the type affects its value and appropriateness.

Material Matters

'Jewellery' can be used metaphorically to mean any adornment that enhances appearance.

Metaphorical Use

 jewellery, weapons, and even shoes. Deciphering these messages is no easy task. Runes are short, straight, and diagonal lines that make up an alphabet called the “futhark.” All classes of people spoke and wrote this language, in many different dialects.
