Ways to wear earcuffs

An ear cuff is a piece of jewelry that is worn around the outer edge of your ear. It simply slips over the cartilage and gives a similar look to that of a helix or snug piercing.

Investing in earrings with different types of gemstones can be a great option for those who like to complement their compositions with more stylish accessories.
And in this case, ear cuffs stand out for their originality and ability to highlight minimalist outfits. There are several different models of ear cuffs, which allows this trend to be use among the most varied styles and occasions.

If we go back in time, we can see how ear cuffs were used by different people as a way of expressing their style, art and culture, as well as a way of representing age, social class and marital status.
Records from 1200 AD already show how this style of earring being used by the people from India as accessories for weddings and other important ceremonies.

In the 16th century in Europe, these earrings were mostly worn by noblewomen. In their production, they produced more classic designs, rescuing floral patterns and enhancing precious stones, especially diamonds and sapphires.

(Isabella Ruini as Venus by Lavinia Fontana, 1592)

In the 20th century, earrings were very present in fashion among artists of the time, such as Marilyn Monroe and Carmen Miranda. At that time women were no longer interested in large and heavy earrings.
Since then, the use of earrings has been re-signified on several occasions. In the 70s and 80s, it became an ornament allied to the idea of rebellion brought by the punk movement of the time.
However, the height of the success of these earrings happened during the catwalks of the brand Chanel in the Spring/Summer 2012 collection, signed by Karl Lagerfeld. Since then, ear cuffs have become very popular among artists and fashionistas around the world.

In 2022, the accessory has already appeared in several fashion shows for brands such as Dior and Fendi and has been classified as one of the main jewelry pieces of the year.

For those who don’t have another piercing, fake pierced earrings can be an interesting choice. It is a good option for special occasions, as they give a sophisticated and modern touch to your outfit.

4- Double Chain Earrings

Should I take off my jewelry while working out?

Wearing your semi-fine jewelry while exercising can decrease the quality of the accessory in several ways.

First, sweat can oxidize the piece causing stains and loss of shine. Dumbbells and washers found in gyms are made of stronger materials than semi-fine jewelry, so it is important to be careful not to scratch or break your piece while exercising.
⠀
Plus, wearing jewelry while exercising can affect your skin, causing blemishes or discoloration, irritations and allergies. If you are a fan of the chunkier semi-fine jewelry, especially earrings, wearing them while exercising can end up hurting your skin and they can also get stuck into gym equipment, clothes, hair and other parts of the body.
⠀
When it comes to wearing jewelry to the gym, minimal is the best approach! If you really love that piece of jewelry, maybe that is why you should not wear it to the gym!

How to identify quality costume jewerly?

This is really a controversial subject, since the differences at first sight are very subtle and knowledge is needed to find these differences. To make sure that you’re purchasing a semi-jewel of good quality, look out for the following points: 

Brightness, uniformity and quality of the gold bath. Always ask the store about the layers of gold and the bathing process that was used. A good bath should be at least 10 thousandths thick in gold.

 

Brazi Lion pieces have excellent gold plating quality

Good quality semi jewels will certainly have a better finish that is free of burrs and defects. Considering that a good bath has a high cost, good manufacturers will use high quality metal for their semi-jewelry base.

In good semi-jewelry, zirconia, which are lab made stones, are embedded in the pieces in a process that resembles fine jewelry and not glued accessories. The stones are fixed by strong and well-finished claws.

If the semi-jewelry has pearls, it must be acrylic with good quality and with a better varnish. Dull and easily scratching pearls reveal evidence that the product is of low quality. However, pearls can be glued together, as they cannot be bathed next to the rest of the piece.

 

It’s important that semi-fine or gold plated jewelry not be worn in the shower, pool, to sleep or when working out. You should also take care when applying lotions because water and the oil in lotion can cause gold plating to wear down over time.

Jewelry that falls into the semi-fine category should be reserved for pieces that are fashion forward but not expected to last a lifetime. This category of jewelry is one of our favorites as it allows us to offer a wide range of on trend jewelry at affordable prices.

How to mix gold with silver

The truth is: there aren’t too many secrets.

You can mix and dare without any restrictions! In the past, the rule was to match everything, but things have changed and fashion is becoming more and more democratic. The key word is harmonization. You don’t have to match, but you have to coordinate.

One piece must be referenced with the other, even if it is not the same color. Here are some combinations that work great together:


Accessories with the same finish (matte or gloss)

Accessories with the same style (modern, vintage)

Pieces with a common point (pieces with stones of the same color)

It’s a new Brazi Lion!

In order to further express the concept of our brand, it was necessary to make some updates. With the help of Mude Creative Studio, we started by modifying our visual identity to connect with the overall idea of what Brazi Lion is, not just as a brand, but as a soulful lifestyle. We love Brazilian artists and handmade jewelry, and in order to blend these two types of concepts, we studied the processes of each. Our new visual identity combines important symbols that represent my story. You will recognize the braided forms of handmade jewelry, and the native flower of the Brazilian Cerrado, which represents the femininity in each of us. The lion has always been an important item of the brand which represents many important aspects such as creativity, strength, courage, bravery and energy.

 

All of these elements combined brought us a new logo with a mature, sophisticated and elegant concept.

How to make your accessories last longer

STORE IT PROPERLY EVERY TIME

1. Store in a dry place; the most delicate items should be kept separate in tissue paper or a fabric bag to avoid scratches. At Brazi, with every purchase, we give you a little fabric bag to keep your jewelry nice and safe!

At Brazi, with every purchase, we give you a little fabric bag to keep your jewelry nice and safe!

2. You know that the sun can damage your skin and change its color with enough exposure. The same is true for many metals and gemstones used to make jewelry. Prolonged sun or light exposure can damage these materials and cause them to wear out as well as look old and uncared for.

3. Don’t wear your jewelry while doing chores.

4. Take your jewelry off while you go swimming, hot tub and showering. 

5. Clean your accessory regularly and gently; never clean your jewelry with alcohol, acetone or chemicals.

6. Wait for your skin lotion and perfume to dry before putting on your accessory.

Take care of your jewelry! Make your precious accessories last a lifetime!

Fashion and Comfort

Fashion and comfort – something we thought we would never hear going together. Unfortunately or fortunately, it took a pandemic to happen in order for us to open our minds that fashion can be comfortable. Yes, certain fashion items can still be highly uncomfortable and not to mention harmful for our health; such as high heels.

With more people working from home during the Coronavirus outbreak, people are  switching from dressing to the office to a more comfortable outfit that is not your pajamas. A lot of people might think that is a challenge to look put-together while at home. However, is not that complicated. Here are some tips:

If you are the type of person that loves sweat pants or yoga pants, you can simply focus on the “above the desk look” by pairing with a basic short sleeve shirt. How about adding some accessories such as necklaces and earrings?! Let’s not forget that some of those accessories are extremely light, therefore making it comfortable and allowing you to wear them all day long and not even notice them.


Golden Grass Earrings with Blue Rhinestone

Another great idea; dresses! Wearing a dress may seem counterintuitive when you can easily stay with leggings and a t-shirt, but dresses are an easy way to look polished while still comfy. Especially those tent and babydoll styles that are super in right now. (Gabyearl loves those tent style dresses!).

Are you having a lot of zoom meetings or simply feels cold at your home office? How about adding a blazer? Definitely a cozy item with a more polished look.

According to the Copenhagen Fashion Summit, fashion and comfort already do and will continue to coexist, and even fabrics will become softer, less processed and more sustainable, so whatever garment you choose to wear, make sure you are comfortable in it. Be yourself and don’t worry about following a trend.


Colorful Enameled Solitaire Earrings

We hope you’ve liked some of the tips. Let’s not forget the power of accessorizing. 


Either for adding visual interest on a video call or just because it makes you HAPPY, EMPOWERED and BEAUTIFUL.
