All women and even some men love jewellery and nothing makes a better gift. The question always seems to be how much to spend and what costume jewellery is worth.
If it is simple trinkets you are looking for then these can be found in any dollar store or at any swap meet. These tend to be extremely cheap and made of very thin cheap gold or even plastic. They have no designer names or anything else and this costume jewellery falls under the category of fashion jewellery and is made more for young teens and small girls than grown women.
You have some that may look real but is still very cheap. It is usually painted with gold color paint and may cause severe allergic reactions in some people. At the very least it may well turn your skin to a nice shade of green or any other number of colors. As a gift it is really only well suited for a friend or a teenager who may lose it or only wear it a few times anyway. If given as a gift I would be up front about it being costume jewellery.
Some costume jewellery is quite expensive. This is the stuff that looks real and is usually gold plated or silver and has semi precious stones in it. A lot of people may well believe that this jewellery is real and they should for the price you will be paying; that is, after all, the basic idea behind this. You know it's not real but others think it is. This is for those who want to look good and not spend quite as much as they would on the genuine article.
You can find costume jewellery just about anywhere and for any price you care to pay. Personally if I were going to spend several hundred dollars on a piece of jewellery I would go with a small piece and invest in the real thing. Most women would appreciate this more than something that looks good on the outside but is fake on the inside.
One reason to buy costume jewellery is to prevent theft. Most people who are looking to make easy money won't bother with it unless they think they will be able to pass it off as real and that isn't very easy to do especially with buyers who know about jewellery. You might also go with the costume jewellery if you are afraid of losing it or if it is for someone who is known to lose items like this often. It may save you a bundle when replacing it or at least some guilt over losing it.
You can find costume jewellery just about anywhere you look for it. They even have special sites on the internet that sell it for weddings and proms for when you need to look good but can't afford to spend a lot.
Whatever your reasons costume jewellery is abundant and easily obtained. For special occasions it may be best to go with slightly better quality than you would for everyday use. Of course even for everyday use you will want something that won't fall apart while you are wearing it. - 29871
