Can you love every single piece of jewelry that you buy? Is it possible to avoid having “anxiety pieces” in your jewelry box that you never use? The last thing you want is your new jewelry purchases to end up in the drawer or on your bedside table causing anxiety every time you see them. But can it be avoided?We did a non-statistical market research with you - the listeners - and came to the conclusion that these are the seven most common mistakes when you buy fine jewelry:Mistake # 1:Not knowing what you are buyingMistake # 2:Not knowing your style and tasteMistake # 3:Not allowing your style to evolve over timeMistake # 4:Buying jewelry of poor qualityMistake # 5:Caring too much about what other people thinkMistake # 6:Not having a planMistake # 7:Sticking too hard to the plan!My best tip for you who are just entering into this sparkling word of fine jewelry is simply: Start small. Start wearing jewelry. Do not put all your eggs (money) in the same basket (into one piece of expensive jewelry) in the beginning. Start with something small, e.g. a small diamond ring and start wearing it! Slowly but steadily you will find your personal taste!The worst thing you can do for your own jewelry development is not to wear any jewelry at all, because then you know for sure that you will never find what you like.Enjoy!And don't forget: you deserve fine jewelry.
