What does your body jewellery say about you?
|
Nowadays, as well as being a beauty accessory, body jewellery is more commonly worn as a statement of one’s personality. Whilst nose studs, eyebrow jewellery and belly bars are worn regularly in modern society, you can still stand apart from the crowd when wearing them. It is now possible to design your own piece of jewellery which can then be custom made, allowing you to wear something striking that still reflects your personality.
Different people are suited to different forms of jewellery. Some may opt for plain colours like gold or silver, whereas others can choose to turn their jewellery into something more individual, maybe by incorporating precious stones, such as gemstones or diamonds.
Navel piercing is a fairly modern creation and it is arguable that the idea for the belly bar was inspired by the creation of the bikini. Women’s navels appeared more sexually provocative than before and so belly bars are now worn as a way to accentuate this. It is possible for men to wear belly bars as well, although they are more commonly worn by women. Belly bars can provide you with a sexy and exotic look, but it is important to first ascertain what type of belly button you have in order to find what type of belly bar would fit you perfectly. When deciphering on which belly bar will suit you best, you will be spoilt for choice as they come in a wide range of shapes, sizes and colours.
This also goes for nose studs. As every nose shape is different, it is important to first decipher what type of nose stud would suit your face. Nose studs can be made from various materials including steel, titanium, gold, silver, platinum and acrylic. It is therefore important to choose your nose stud carefully in case of any allergies you may have. Even though, nose piercings are the most common of their kind (after ear piercings), nose studs themselves are generally quite small and subtle. Nose studs however, are worn in some civilisations as part of a culture. In Indian, for example, women often wear nose studs in their left nostril in the belief that it will make childbirth a much easier process as the left side of the body is supposedly linked to the female reproductive organs. There does not appear to be any cultural purpose for wearing nose studs in Britain however, we simply wear them to be aesthetically pleasing, as well as giving ourselves a unique look.
Of all the various body jewellery available, eyebrow jewellery is relatively new. It was introduced into society in the 1970’s by the punk subculture and it was worn regularly as a fashion statement. In today’s society, this idea of a fashion statement still applies and eyebrow jewellery itself can come in various forms, including bars or rings. As with any piece of jewellery, you can change your eyebrow jewellery on a daily basis to reflect your change in mood or just to suit different occasions.
In magazines or on the television, it is common for us to see some of our favourite celebrities showing off various forms of body jewelry. Whatever you choose to get pierced, you can pride yourself in knowing that you are giving yourself the opportunity to show off your personality and wear an item of well-crafted jewellery at the same time.
