饰品的选择与佩戴

爱美的女士当然少不了一些装饰品跟服装搭配。饰品搭配看服装,要根据服装原有状态进行饰品的选择和搭配。

一、首饰

佩戴首饰也应遵守TPO(时间、场所、对象)原则,具体要求是:

1. 佩戴首饰要注意场合。只有在交际应酬时,佩戴首饰才最合适;上班时间以不戴或少戴首饰为好;从事劳动、体育活动和出席会议时也不宜戴首饰。

2. 佩戴手饰要与服装及本人的外表相和谐。一般穿较考究的服装时,才佩戴昂贵的首饰;穿运动装、工作服时不宜戴首饰。如胖脸型的女士不宜戴耳环,圆脸型的女士戴项链应加个挂件。

3. 佩戴首饰要考虑性别因素。女士可以戴各种首饰,男士只宜戴结婚戒指。

4. 佩戴首饰要注意寓意和习惯。项链是平安、富有的象征,应根据身材和个性特点,选择适当的款式和色彩。戒指是首饰中最明确的爱情信物,佩戴戒指可标明你的婚姻状况:戴在食指上表示求婚,戴在中指上表示已在恋爱中,戴在小指上则表示自己是一个独身主义者。戒指一般只戴一枚,而且戴在左手上。

手镯或手链如果在左手腕或左右两腕上同时佩戴,表示佩戴者已经结婚;如果仅在右手腕上佩戴,则表明佩戴者是自由而不受约束的。另外,手镯或手链的戴法还要考虑因各民族的习俗不同而有所区别。中国人习惯将手镯或手链戴在右手上,而一些西方人则习惯戴在左手上。一般女士佩戴手镯或手链就不用戴手表。

二、饰物

1. 围巾和帽子。围巾、帽子若与服装的风格一致,可增加整体的形象美。在冬季,人们的服装色彩较暗,可以用颜色鲜艳的围巾、帽子点缀。如果服装颜色很艳丽,可用颜色素雅的围巾、帽子以求得一种色彩的平衡。帽子还可以用来修饰脸型,长脸型的人宜戴宽边或帽檐下垂的,脸宽的人则应戴小檐高顶帽。

2. 手提包。一般要求手提包与服装相和谐。夏季拎包应轻巧,冬季提包的颜色可以鲜明些; 草编的手提包配上运动衫或棉布便装就十分自然得体。

3. 眼镜。如今,眼镜已不只是医疗保健品,它不仅能保护眼睛,而且还是一种饰品。精美的金边眼镜,会给人增添几分斯文,而大框架的眼镜则显示出一种豪放气派。

4. 胸花。胸花有金属的、塑料的、镶嵌宝石的,还有用与衣服料子相同的呢绒做的,很有情趣。女子佩戴胸花没有一定的原则,只要看上去不刺眼就行。

5. 手帕。作为一种饰物,在西装左上边口袋里,露出折成三角形、双尖形、花瓣形等形状的手帕,能给人平添几分风度。

知识加油站

你知道如何选择合适的帽子吗?

Step 1 Try them on 试戴

Try on hats in a variety of colors and note which ones flatter your skin tone. Pale complexions look best in warm tones, such as pink. If you're dark-skinned, avoid black hats. Make sure the hat fits your head and doesn't fall over your ears or squeeze your forehead.

试戴不同颜色的帽子,看一下哪些颜色更能衬托你的肤色。比较苍白的肤色更适合暖色调,例如粉红色。如果你的肤色较暗,不要戴黑色的帽子。确保帽子尺寸与头部相称,不要遮到耳朵或额头。

Step 2 Choose a hat based on face size 根据脸的大小选择

Choose a hat proportionate to your face size. If you have a small face, avoid hats with large brims and crowns. If you have a large face, don't wear face-hugging hats.

选择适合脸部大小的帽子。如果你的脸比较小,避免有大帽圈的帽子。如果你的脸比较大,不要戴包住脸的帽子。

Tuck your hair behind your ears or wear it in a low ponytail or bun before donning a hat.

戴帽子的时候把头发扫到耳朵后面,或者梳成较低的马尾或发髻。

Step 3 Get the right hat for your face shape 适合自己的脸型

Create length in a round face by choosing hats with high brims and sharp angles, such as a fedora or a bucket hat, and avoid rounded crowns. Long faces look best in hats with a lowcrown, such as a news-boy cap, or hats with large brims, such as sun hats or Panama hats. Oval faces look good in just about any hat.

如果脸比较圆,可以尝试帽圈比较高,有尖锐的角度的帽子,例如爵士帽或水桶帽,将面部拉长,避免圆形帽冠。长脸最好选择较低的帽冠,例如报童帽,或者有大帽圈的帽子,例如太阳帽或巴拿马帽。椭圆形脸戴任何帽子都好看。

Step 4 Flatter your features 彰显自己的特征

Wear a hat that sits forward on your head and has a distinct brim if you have a large nose. As wept-up or angled-brim hat it is the most flattering if you wear glasses. For every face shape, the hat's crown should never be wider than your cheekbones. Play with angling so the hat look sits best on you.

如果你的鼻子比较大,戴一顶将头部向前拉伸,帽圈比较别致的帽子。如果你戴眼镜的话,有角度的帽圈最能增加你的风度。对于任何脸型,帽冠都不要比颧骨宽。

Position the hat so that it sits in the center of your head, covering half of your forehead. Most people wear their hats too far back.

帽子一定要刚好戴在头部中央,覆盖额头的一半。大部分人都把帽子戴的太靠后了。

Step 5 Wear it with confidence 有自信

Wear your hat with confidence. A hat definitely draws attention, so make sure you feel comfortable in it and let it show.

自信满满地戴自己的帽子。帽子无疑会吸引注意力,所以一定要感觉舒适,尽情彰显自己的风采。

教你如何选择太阳镜

夏季太阳镜式样较多,有方形、椭圆、六角、斜方等样式。在挑选时,尺寸可适当大一些。旅游太阳镜大都没有光度,可不受瞳孔距离的限制,镜面稍大一些可以使视野更加开阔,但也要使眼镜臂的重量平均分散于耳朵及鼻梁上。一般说来,旅游眼镜要比普通眼镜略大4—6毫米为佳。

选择旅游眼镜,除了造型要美观、式样要大方外,其镜片也很有讲究。旅游眼镜的镜片基本上是塑胶片分别染色而制成的。同一块镜片上,上深下浅,分有浅红、紫色、灰色、褐色、黄色及绿色。挑选时要和您的肤色相协调。例如,红色镜片会使一位面色发黄的人看来有一双红色肿胀的眼睛,但若是肤色较红的人戴着,又会使眼镜显得深凹。苍白皮肤的人戴一副绿色镜片,看起来有一对下陷的眼睛,但是古铜色的人戴上就漂亮极了。苍白皮肤的人不能戴灰色镜片,若戴上一副褐色镜片,就令人觉得有热情及健康的外表。

假如您是一位相貌粗犷的男性,建议您购买宽边、方型旅游眼镜,戴上这种眼镜可以使您显得稳重、端庄。如果您是一位脸庞清秀、文雅的女青年,可选用带有翘角椭圆型的旅游眼镜,这样显得更加清秀,风度翩翩。

太阳镜镜片如何选:

墨绿色镜片:吸去热气,带来清凉感觉,但透光度及清晰度较低,适合晒太阳时配戴,驾驶时不宜戴。

灰色镜片:属较全面的镜片,戴上后仍能清楚地辨别颜色。

茶色镜片:能挡住平滑光亮表面的反射光线,戴眼镜者仍可看清细微部分,是驾驶员的理想选择。

蓝色镜片:蓝色是最流行的太阳镜片色,蓝色能有效滤去海水及天空反射的浅蓝色。

女士穿的正装皮鞋(dress shoes for women):“high-heels”(高跟鞋),其中根据高跟样式的不同还分为“kitten heels”(中跟女鞋)、“stilletto heels”(细高跟女鞋)、“wedge heels”(坡跟女鞋)。

其他的还包括“mules”(无后套拖鞋),它们可以是“any heel”(任何的鞋跟高度),“ranging from flat to heels”(包括平底到高跟)。“slingbacks”(鞋后帮呈带状的露跟凉鞋),还有最近很受欢迎的“ballet flats”(芭蕾平底鞋),即指那些“shoes with a very low heel and a relatively short vamp that reveals much of the instep”(鞋跟非常低的女鞋,鞋面前部非常短,所以常露出脚趾),这种女鞋在英国亦称为“ballerinas, ballet pumps or skimmers”。

2. 鞋码亦称“shoe size”,比如“What's your shoe size?”(你穿多大鞋码?),美国鞋码“seven and a half”相当于中国的40号鞋大小。“sole”(鞋底),一般有“soft-soled”(软底鞋)与“stiff-soled”(硬底鞋)之分;“padded removable footbeds”(可取出的鞋垫)。那么“shoelaces”(是指鞋带、)“shoe polish”(擦皮鞋用的皮革护理油)。

3. 试穿亦是“try on”,如果大小不适合的,咱们可以说“They don't fit very well”(它们大小不怎么合适),或是“They're not very comfortable to walk in”(穿它们走路不怎么舒服)。还有,一些硬后帮的鞋,咱们“usually get blisters in my heels when wearing these shoes”(穿这些鞋经常磨后跟);如果这家鞋店服务够高档的,还可以问一下“What would you suggest that might help with this problem?”(你们是否有何建议可以解决这问题?)

首饰的类别

一、黄金首饰

1、纯金首饰

纯金首饰呈金黄色,光泽明亮但很柔和。纯金硬度2.5,密度19.32g/cm3(20℃),熔点1064℃,具有良好的延展性,一克纯金可拉成2500米长的细丝,锤成9.6平方英尺的金箔。按国际规定,凡是由贵金属制作的首饰,必须在首饰内侧打有印记,印记要求标出黄金的含量和出厂厂家。凡是含金量达99%的称足金,含量达到99.9%的称为千足金,足金和千足金均属纯金范畴。

2、K金首饰

K金是指黄金和其它金属熔炼在一起的合金,因为合金的英文单词是Karat Gold,所以简称为K金。根据在首饰中添加的金属数量不同,K金中的黄金含量亦不同,24K是指纯金而言,如果将纯金分为24份,则1份就是1K,1K的含黄金量是4.1667%,如果是18K,含黄金量就是18×4.1667%=75%。

二、铂金首饰

铂金首饰的密度很大,为21.45g/cm3,是白银密度的二倍,是18K金密度的1.5倍多。目前市场上销售的铂金首饰,是以铂为主的铂钯合金,铂金首饰的含铂量,在日本为75%-90%,而在欧美必需到95%,在中国足铂金中铂含量为90%。为了和K白金区别,铂金首饰的印记要求较严,要求有铂的化学符号Pt、铂金含量数字和厂字,如亚洲一般印有Pt900加厂字,在购买时要留意查看是否有印记。

三、银首饰

银是亚洲人酷爱的贵金属首饰,它的密度为11.29g/cm3,硬度为2.7;为了提高其硬度,在做首饰时需要在银中加入7.5%的铜,这种含银92.5%,含铜7.5%的合金,国际上称为标准银;为了区别,一般在首饰上打上“S”的印记,但也有不打的。

四、珠宝首饰

珠宝首饰,是指珠宝玉石和贵金属的原料、半成品,以及用珠宝玉石和贵金属的原料、半成品制成的佩戴饰品、工艺装饰品和艺术收藏品。 1Ru1RgHsKSmP8Y1LmvLx4SBge8aHJyBiB79Wturq6lx5rioWu5wGUXNMAhx3tcX0
