NECKLACES
The necklace that you wear will depend mostly on the neckline of your blouse, t-shirt or dress. If you are wearing a V-neck or scoop-neck top, go with a drop necklace with a charm on the end. Wear a precious gem, crystal or rhinestone charm, with both formal and casual wear. Choker necklaces look nice with strapless dresses that expose the chest and spaghetti strap styles.
EARRINGS
Details are everything. Even the smallest detail, like a diamond stud, could be the perfect accessory to complete your outfit. There are three main types of earrings that are popular for women in fashion---hoops, drop earrings and studs.
Hoop earrings should be worn with casual wear, though you can feel free to wear small hoops (the width of a finger) with formal outfits---especially when the hoops are diamond or rhinestone studded.
Drop earrings are generally extravagant or artistic. They are meant to be admired and commented upon. Put on a pair of drop earrings when you have a special occasion, an event where you will surely be "seen." Most styles of drop earrings go nicely with formal gowns, dressy pant suits and jeans, or when you are wearing a head-turning blouse.
Diamond or other gem studs are best for casual, everyday outfits.

LESS is MORE
Do not overdo your jewelry when accessorizing. Depending on the styles you choose, there are situations where just one interesting piece of jewelry, like a colorful rhinestone bracelet, or a pair of chandelier earrings, will be enough for the whole outfit. One of the rare acceptable situations when you could wear a necklace, earrings, and a bracelet is when you have a simple drop diamond charm necklace, diamond stud earrings and a tennis bracelet.
