A Modern Twist

PP

I have always liked JADE. In fact, my middle name in Chinese is Jade. Some women, especially the young, may associate it with their moms, grandmas; in other words, old, traditional, boring, not trendy etc… That can be true but it really depends on how jade is being used in design and style. I recently bought a piece of necklace with a large jade pendant. The necklace is made of sterling silver and the jade is light green in colour. I will not get into the wikipedia of this beautiful gemstone but just that you know, jade comes in many nuances of green and white, black, yellow, orange and even pink! I tried it on with my Betsey Johnson colourful floral  dress and the combination was FABULOUS! I had everyone talking about it:-) Match jade accessories with day dresses, smart suits or tank top and jeans for a modern twist. The key is the more ornate your jade is, the more modern your outfits should be.
