The other thread about matching gems to season got me thinking.. i often coordinate my gems to my clothes. If not matching, then in complimentary colors. THEN i realized, i dont match my gems to the clothes... i pick out which gem to wear first, then dress accordingly!

Yesterday was halo'd peridot and hot pink dress. Today is my halo'd spess w/ a burnt orange dress.

Anyone else do that?
 
Gosh, yes! I purchase pieces of clothing that will look good with my gemstones. I have been favoring V-neck sweaters over mock turtlenecks for years because pendants hang so nicely with V-necks.

A piece of clothing that doesn't go well with my gemstone jewelry is a piece of clothing that will not be worn very much.

Yesterday, I wanted to wear my aqua pendant, so I picked a sweater color that looked great with it.

Nah, that just means you need more jewelry.

Sometimes I pick out the clothes and match the jewelry and sometimes I pick out the jewelry and match the clothes. It depends on how I feel that day.
 
Wow, you must have a lot of well coordinated outfits. I like to wear dark coloured clothes so that matches practically everything I own.
 
Black goes with everything. I have lots of black clothes. ::)

So true! :bigsmile:

I own very few black clothes, mainly pants. I never wear black near my face, because it looks terrible with my coloring. So, it is a bit of a juggle sometimes to get clothes and gemstone colors to work together. In a pinch, I find that colorless diamonds go with everything. :tongue:

Same here!
 
i used to wear all black, but then i realized wearing colorful clothes make me feel happier, espcially yellow, magenta, bright olive green, bright blues, and orange! and YES, v-necks and gem pendants are great combos! they're my favorite thing to match w/ clothes, but people at work probably think i'm constantly hecking out my own boobs, haha. :cheeky:

My usual combos:

yellow clothes + magenta or pink gems

magenta clothes + green or yellow gems

brown, tan clothes + orange, yellow, pink gems

red clothes + yellow or red gems. Never green gems tho, i hate the christmas combo, even during christmas!

blue clothes + blue or yellow gems

green clothes + green, yellow or pink gems

orange clothes + orange or blue gems

black clothes + blue or pink gems. love this combo!
 
i wear what i like and do not coordinate with an outfit. personally, i've found that orange goes with everything....... :devil:
