Hemant Jain asked:


Men often find themselves wondering what to wear on a formal occasion. A formal shirt and trouser for a wedding or a reception party often turns out to be too boring. For the man of today there could be nothing more stylish and appealing than a Jodhpuri coat. Jodhpuri suits add an indefinable elegance and sophistication along with an ethnic ever green look. Traditional men’s wear has flooded the markets across the globe. They are available in new varieties, colors and have a perfect blend of modern and contemporary. Designers from across the globe are trying their hands for bringing more options for today’s fashion conscious men. Gone are the yester years when men didn’t think and found contentment in adorning any suit.

Jodhpuri coats can be worn in a good mix and match style after consultation with your designer. Depending upon your skin color and taste you can go ahead with clichéd colors like white, off white, cream etc. Perhaps if you want something bolder and unique then you have at your disposal a wide variety of grey, black and a whole range of color palette to chose from. The coats can be altered and changed to suit you perfectly. You may also opt for some embroidery work to highlight the neck. Jodhpuri coats are generally worn with jewelery and other matching accessory. Men’s wedding accessories include buttons in gold, silver and other precious stones. They also prefer to wear a gold or silver plated watch in accordance with the color of their wedding attire.

Indian wedding sherwani which is an all time favorite for men is custom designed for them according to the taste, style and color choice.

Sherwani helps in making you looking more handsome and attractive than you already are! What more could one ask for? Designers usually prefer offering the sherwani with a typical Nehru collar followed by a buttoned up look on front. Following set patterns sherwanis are usually made long and are meant to be at least knee length if not slightly more. Sherwani looks best when accompanied by appropriate jooties and sandals.

The younger generation of today is seen in weddings all across the globe sporting designer kurta pajamas. If you are very casual and the wedding not so important then you can team your collar less kurta with something as simple as denim. This gives you a trendy indo western look.  But generally kurtas are worn along with loose trouser like pants. Gone are the days when kurtas were worn only in light shades. The markets are flooded with really nice kurtas in pastels and other bolder colors for todays men. The older men still prefer to be seen at get togethers and functions in embroidered dhoti kurta. This makes them feel closer to their roots and gives them an exceptionally respectable look.

Designers have experimented with pathani suits also and today you can get them in heavy embellishments and embroidered work.

Wedding Planning On A Budget – Information on Wedding Presents

Angela J. Brinker asked:


When you start thinking about presents for wedding, many people tend to get over confused that they lose their heads. They no longer know what do buy and therefore, their heads are full of mixed ideas. The thing is that when trying to buy something for the wedding, you need to think about the money.

It is a convenient idea to buy gifts for the newly wed couple, something that they might find practical and that they might use in the near future. For instance, something would show your affection for the couple and your sentiments for them.

Therefore, when you are thinking about what presents to purchase for the couple, you might want to think about something that they will lose for a long time. Meanwhile, you might also want to buy something to show a sparkle of affection and of feeling for them. Therefore, we might always tend to look for things that the two partners might find relate into. You need to buy something that will be of practical use to both bride and the groom and thus, you might want to think about something  practical but offered with a lot of affection.

Below, you will find some suggestions regarding gifts that are both practical but that are also of great value to the couple for the time in the future.

Jewelery, rings or necklaces

Precious items such as jewelery and all the items associated with it are considered to be priceless and valuable gifts. Any woman  to whom jewelery is offered would appreciate enormously your act of kindness and therefore, the bride would feel extremely excited and pleased about such a gift being offered to her. Try looking for something that looks cute but is also highly sophisticated. Something like a shiny item of jewelery that comes with that extra touch of elegance will definitely be appreciated by the bride. Diamonds are a timeless gift so, if you can afford to buy such expensive gifts, then you could also consider diamonds.

Purses

This gift is extremely well appreciated by women across the world. The ladies might want something that keep in touch with fashion but that is also elegant. If you are just looking for one tiny thing, perhaps an evening purse might do the trick for you.

Gifts for the bridegroom

For the bridegroom, it is important that you look for something special and elegant; men do not usually put that much value on presents and they certainly do not make a lot of fuss about it. Therefore, if you can choose something to make the groom happy, then you have scored a hit. Something like a cravat, a suit, or wristwatches made from either gold or silver or even something like belts or clothes accessories. Therefore, it is not that complicated to think about something useful for him and once you have found something elegant enough, then you should buy that thing.

Playful things as gifts

Some people that are invited to the wedding might want to be more playful and they might show up with special types of presents for the groom and the bride. For instance, giving the couple panties, bras, boxers or other items of lingerie is considered to be something playful and is perfectly acceptable. You are allowed to make this bold statement only if  couple is close friends with you and you have known each other for quite a long time. You wouldn’t want them to become embarrassed all of a sudden.

Art as gifts

Other types of gifts for people might include drawing, art make by yourself or someone you know or even small things to decorate their home with. While some people might think of art as having no practicality, many couple appreciate being given art because it is something elegant and special and it will help make their house feel more personal to them.

Special gifts to be offered

Besides the ideas mentioned above, there are also a lot of other things that you might offer to a couple. For instance, buying them things such as small frames for their wedding photos would seem to be like a simple but elegant attention. Also, you might be aware of the fact that they are  special shops with gifts to be offered during weddings and you might also want to take  a lot in those shops to see if you will have the perfect gift for the couple.



How Can I Buy Cheap Engagement Rings?

November 17, 2009 by

Ian Wright asked:


Buying an engagement ring is intimidating for someone who is poor. Helping an engaged couple find a ring on their limited budget is sometimes a dilemma.  There are choices, but they must be reviewed carefully by each of the partners that are involved.

To save money a substitute for a diamond is a good idea such as a cubic zirconia. The tradition of a diamond engagement ring is very recent, and was in large part created as part of an ad campaign put together by the De Beers company at the beginning of the last century, as they struggled to prevent the still active glut of quality diamonds on the market from crashing their profits.

The over prize of the modern diamond is due to the mystique created and spread by De Beers and other diamond merchants. The symbolism involved, of beauty, clarity, and durability, can be applied to may other stones and to diamond substitutes without loss of meaning.

If you and your partner want a real diamond its time to start to look into some of your current options. The first is actually often overlooked: resetting a stone already existing in one of the two families. Often purchasing an engagement ring from a current owner, or accepting one that has been a family heirloom, will result in the price being lower than a new stone, or in the case of one handed down through the family, the important “something old” that the bride traditionally wears for her wedding.   You will be able to ensure you get the most out of expensive content by reusing and re-purposing it, without exposing your website to duplicate content filters.

Failing that, consider asking a reputable, established jeweler dealing in gemstones if he or she can find you a good stone at a low price. Keep in mind that your notion of a low price may not be the same as a jeweler’s… but a jeweler who has a reputation is much less likely to cheat you than a fly by night, or a chain supplier who has good intention without a great jewelery education.

Good jewelers will help you find affordable stones through different avenues, like other professionals and estate sales.

A reputable jeweler can also educate you regarding diamonds, far more so that any other source you can find. Diamonds are an expensive item to purchase.  The prices are often inflated according to market demand.  To bypass this price increase, you should find a jeweler willing to suggest a substitute. Their suggestion is often based on their knowledge of both quality and affordability. Just think of these varieties of zirconium, Moissanite, and white topaz.  

Some, with knowledge of many stones, will recommend some strong, beautiful, but quite unexpected alternatives. Don’t discount the advice that will be offered. Jewelers are never pleased to sell diamonds to people who do not appreciated their beauty regardless of the price the buyer paid. While a lot of them feel as if they are frauds, they need to charge a sufficient amount to cover what they spend. It would be their pleasure to assist you in finding an option that will ensure them that they make money and keep their good name while keeping you satisfied.

Another possibility, though not really the best alternative, is to purchase one second hand from a pawn broker or a seller on Ebay. Quality control and a lack of quality assurances can be a serious problem.

Even a dealer in good faith, can “cheat”  you simply because you are not knowledgeable in jewelery and the buyer has little ability to assess the value before purchase. You can stake your life in many ways. Your engagement ring should not form a part of them.

Jewelry – One of the Oldest Form of Body Ornament

Bikky Khosla asked:


 

Jewelry (also spelled as Jewellery and Jewelery) are ornaments like necklace, rings, earrings, bracelets, bangles, toe rings, etc. made of different precious metals like gold, silver, platinum and also from precious and semi-precious stones like pearls, gemstones, diamonds, etc.

Jewelry is the one of the oldest form of body ornament. Earlier jewelry was made from natural materials, such as bones, animal teeth, shells, wood and carved stones. These days beads are frequently used in jewelry. Beaded Jewellery commonly encompass necklaces, bracelets, earrings, belts, and rings and the beads can be both large or small.

Around the world, the demand of gold jewelry is on the rise and so are the prices. This form of jewelry looks beautiful and the Jewellers are coming up with new mesmerizing exquisite designs every day. For making gold jewelry, gold has to be mixed with other metals in required proportions to make it malleable and durable, as the purest form of gold that is 24 carats is very soft and cannot be used for making jewelry.

Gold jewelry used in India are available in 22 kt gold, 21 kt gold, 18 kt gold with purity of 91.6%,. 87.5% and 75% respectively.

Other types of jewelry that are catering to fashion conscious people from across the globe includes artificial jewelry, costume jewelry, fashion and imitation jewelry, pearl jewelry, gemstone jewelry, imitation and antique jewelry.

In India, export of gems and jewelery items during April – May 2008 has registered a growth of over 25%, in terms of rupees, as compared to same period last year. The growth of the gems and jewelery industry is commendable considering the fact that the rupee gained over the US dollar for most part of the year.

So where should one go to buy jewelry? Well, you can buy from your nearest jeweler’s store or get on to the internet and search for sites selling jewelry, but make sure you buy hallmark jewelry as hallmarking certifies that the jewelry conforms to national & international standards of purity.

In India, the BIS i.e. Bureau of Indian Standards undertakes certification of purity of gold jewelry in accordance with Indian Standards IS:1417 Grades of Gold & Gold Alloys.

If you are an importer or a buyer based outside India and have a buying requirement for any form of jewelry from India, you can always log on to site Tradeindia.com

TradeIndia website has a comprehensive database of jewelry exporters from India.

You can search for exporters and manufacturers of any form of jewelry and can contact them directly with your buy requirement. An importer can also post his buy requirement and can respond to offers received.

To help you in finding all kinds of jewelry sellers, exporters and manufacturers from India. There are other company websites also that you can Google easily. But I’m impressed with the companies listed on the TradeIndia.com portal as here you can find many jewelry exporters at a single place. You don’t have to search through the internet.

A word of caution though, while dealing through internet always cross-check the company credentials first before placing an order. As it is always better to be safe than be sorry later!

Titanium Rings Show Their True Colors

November 6, 2009 by

Henry Schweizer asked:


When choosing a ring for that special someone or to complement your own new look, it’s natural to feel limited to a small range of color options. The metals we’re used to don’t offer a lot of variety. Most rings are gold or silver or slight variations on those colors. Even if you’ve considered titanium rings, the new phenomenon making its way into the market, it’s probable that those you’ve seen will all have had the same muted grayish tone. Brightening up rings with gemstones only does so much when the basic color of the band is the same. What can you do if you want to achieve a really different look?

A little known secret in the jewelery business is that titanium rings can in fact be made in a range of dramatic colors, shades you just wouldn’t expect to see in a metal. This can be done without painting them and without weakening the metal at all. Titanium rings are known for their strength and colored titanium rings are no exception. Colored titanium rings are still very rare, but they’re not particularly expensive to make, so you should find them affordable if you’re able to track them down. They offer so many new options that you can choose or design a colored titanium ring to create a truly unique look.

How are colored titanium rings made? The secret is in the metal itself. Titanium can be oxidized to create a sheen across the surface of the metal. The refractive index of this oxidized layer is such that it can shine in a range of different colors. The secret to which color the metal takes on depends on the arrangement of the oxidized crystals at its surface. Like the metal itself, titanium oxide is hypo-allergenic, so titanium rings made this way won’t lose their famous property of being safe and comfortable for anyone to wear.

Using the oxidizing process, titanium rings can be made in several different shades. Many people admire the subtle bluish-grey tones reminiscent of storm clouds or ultramodern industrial landscapes. These stylish pieces of jewelery retain the understated, sophisticated appearance of classic titanium whilst adding something just a little different to help you make a personal statement. Titanium rings can also be made in a brighter blue color which looks truly unusual and can contrast impressively with gold bands or etchings or carefully chosen gemstones.

Titanium rings are also available in a deep purple twilight shade which complements darker skin or dark clothes; and for a really striking look, you can even obtain titanium rings in black. Black titanium rings retain the shine of classic titanium rings and shimmer with all the colors of the rainbow across their dark surfaces. You can guarantee that rings like this will be noticed and remarked upon. There’s no better way to provide the personal touch than by choosing a colored titanium ring.
