In the current times creativity is the name of the game. Adding a new dimension to your wardrobe with things you already own is the best way to save cash while continuing to be the trendsetter among your friends. We have 5 great ideas to breathe some new life into your jewelry and add pizzazz to your old favorites. Start stimulating your thinking about how you wear your jewelry with these ingenious tips!

1. Set an earring in an unpredictable place: Who said earrings should only be worn on your ears? Try attaching a favorite stud to your blouse or through one of your belt holes to perk up your look. If your shoes allow for it, you can even offset a plain shoe with a pretty stud detail.

2. Turn your necklace into a bracelet: Turn your favorite pearl necklace into your favorite pearl bracelet. By winding your necklace around your wrist then securing it as usual you’re getting twice the wear out of your pearls! Try Freshwater Chocolate Pearls to add an extra pop to your look.

3. Take your rings to the next level: Let your rings take a turn as a charm on a chain necklace. Just imagine Lori Bonn’s Cushion Paisley Ring strung on a silver chain showing itself off around your neck instead of your hand. Very Sex & the Cityish!!

4. Maximize your sterling silver pendants: Think your silver pendants are exclusive to your necklaces, well think again. Try placing your pendant on the clasp of a durable bracelet for an instant charm bracelet. Or, try threading several necklaces through your pendant for a tiered effect. Adding a pendant like this Rose Gold Star Fish to your hoop earrings will update your look in seconds.

5. Take your brooch to the next dimension: A brooch can diversify your wardrobe beyond your imagination. Attach the clasp through a belt loop, pin to the back pocket of your denim, clasp onto a hat, or add it to an old purse. The list is never ending if you let your imagination take flight!
