6. Nameplate Necklaces
In the same way, name necklaces were seen in the pop culture influences such as the Sarah Jessica Parker’s character in the “Sex and the City”.
If you are unclear, a nameplate necklace is what the name implies – a piece of jewelery in the form of a necklace that features the wearer’s first name in script style, at the end of the chain—commonly attached with gold. In general, this tendency of jewelry was one of the brightest and provoking in 1990s.
Brought back to the present time, these necklaces are revived but sweetness has brought more enhanced and smaller motifs on them.
7. Mood Rings
Mood rings were overwhelming the attention of the wearers for a while, as many people believed that this (and often relatively inexpensive) piece of the costume jewelry could indicate the mood of the person who wore it.
In fact, these rings consist of material, which changes its colors depending on the temperature around it. That is, if ring is green color, the state of feeling the wearer is average or medium. If it turns blue, one is supposedly happy I was given a purple one and initially, I tried to change my feelings to be what the purple color implied. Whereas in case the ring becomes black or gray, the wearer is believed in the community to be in bad temper.
If you want to be a proud owner of a mood ring, which seems to be just great for a costume jewellery set, do as you wish, but do not take it seriously when it tries to tell you something about your mood.
