Beads Promise to Be in Fashion This Summer
Being one of the first things used by our ancestors for self-adornment, bead jewelry enjoys great popularity up to the present. But it is worth mentioning, that, historically, beads served as the symbol of wealth and flourishing and were also worn for the sake of self-protection and other superstitious reasons. Probably, having seen how gorgeous beads are, people began to decorate their hair, hats, sleeves of their clothes with beads. Besides, beads were used as the currency of the ancient times. Thus, beads made of the Egyptian china indicate contacts with Egypt. Today, any famous jewelry house aspires to having beads and necklaces in any of its collections. In a few days, their stunning shine is likely to catch the eye of the A-listers in pursuit of something glamorous and special for another red-carpet appearance. No wonder, chosen with taste, beads and necklaces can create miracles. Here are some examples. ![]() Sharon Stone She complemented her sexy outfit with the string of pearls and a huge cross-looking pendant.
Though tight necklaces are not the top now, still Salma Hayek looked stunningly glamorous. ![]() Multi-layered amber beads stunningly match Cynthia Nixon’s dark-red hair. Another proof of “undefeated” significance of beads for the mankind: there were times when cunning Europeans cheated naive African aborigines and changed glass beads for pearls and gold. The American colonizers were even a more “success” as they managed to buy Manhattan, today’s symbol of stylish life, for the handful of colored beads. Poets and philosophers often compare life with beads that we string the passing years on. The broken ones are the symbol of misfortunes. Let it never happen with your beads and necklaces!
