Choosing Right Jewelry

Choosing Right Jewelry Jewellery like clothes can make or mar your appearance. It is no use having a smart well-cut choli and a beautiful saree if you will ruin it with unsuitable jewellery. What makes a woman appear pleasing and draw attention to her is her good jewellery sense. A sophisticated woman would always team a white chiffon saree having jet black print on it with either light diamond or pearl jewellery in this attire. This is to tell you that every attire requires different type of jewellery. In this way, every season, every mood and different occasions require different types of jewellery.

  • In summer to feel cool and garden-fresh, you should wear light clothes in softest of shades. Soft shades should be offset with either silver, pearl or diamond jewellery. But avoid wearing too many jewels as these will make you feel hot and uncomfortable. Wear the barest amount and look cool and graceful.
  • Monsoon requires vivid vibrant colors glowing turquoise, rich green, deep orange to beat the grey rainy days. And with vibrant colors you require vibrant jewellery made of gold, precious stones and mina work, anything which puts a glow in your complexion should be worn during this season.
  • And winter is the season when you can wear everything and anything and look bewitching.
  • Like different seasons, the different occasions require different makeup tips and jewellery. You should choose the jewellery you wear during different occasions very carefully, because badly chosen jewellery can ruin you whole personality.
  • For morning outings wear a simple strand of pearls, delicate mangulsutra or a simple gold chain. Ear tops or other delicate ear-rings with one or two gold bangles on the arms will look pretty.
  • For afternoon lunches and parties you can go in for a little more elaborate jewellery and this means delicate sets of diamond, mina or precious tones.
  • At night, you jewellery can be mire elaborate but very heavy jewellery with elaborate diamond mina and precious stones should be worn on very dressy occasions only.
  • Different colors of dresses also require different colored jewellery. All the women should have two basic shades of jewellery in an excellent combination with cream, yellow, red, most greens, violet and various shades of brown. Silver looks excellent with peach, white, pale pink, blue almond green and every delicate shade. Besides these two basic types of jewellery which every woman can afford, there are the exclusive diamonds, pearls, jadau and mina jewellery. It you can afford blue mina jewellery, a pink saree would look beautiful with blue mina jewellery and a cream or black outfit would look stunning in a diamond set. If you can, buy varied type of jewellery, add to it jewellery by wearing it by rotation. In this way you will be the envy of all the women and remember jewellery is not only a great asset which adds to you appearance but is also an extremely sound investment.

    Collecting movie posters

    Collecting movie posters

    Movie poster collecting has become popular in recent years. Before your start your collection, there are a few things you should be aware of.
    In recent years, the hobby of movie poster collecting has become a worldwide passion. Posters that could have been purchased ten years ago for $15 are now going for about $160. Classic posters have become more appreciated as they are becoming harder to find. Over the next few years, they will become even more valuable.
    As with all collectibles, movie posters are collected for a variety of reasons. Some collectors love the artwork and images on the posters. Others collect for nostalgic reasons. Different categories are collected. One person may collect only classic posters such as Gone With The Wind, while another will add only classic Disney such as Bambi or Mickey Mouse.

  • Before you think of starting a movie poster collection, there are a few things you should be aware of. Before 1980, posters were made in a variety of sizes. A one-sheet poster measures 27" x 41" - the size of a regular movie poster. An insert is 14" x 36". The artwork depicted on these is usually the same as on the one-sheet poster. Three sheet posters are 41" x 81". This is approximately three times the size of a one-sheet. A half-sheet is printed with credits and artwork that run horizontally. This poster is longer than it is wide.
  • As with all collections, condition is a great factor when placing a value on posters. A mint poster is one that looks like it just came off the printing press. There should not be tears, stains, holes or bleed through on a mint poster. These posters are rare and the most valuable.
  • Near-Mint is a poster that is in excellent condition. It may have edge wear or a slight wrinkle. If a poster was made before 1990, you will see fold marks. This does not decrease the value. These posters were folded when delivered to theatres. The artwork of pre-1990 posters should not have any defects.
  • Very Good condition is a poster that may have slight stains, fading, small tears or minor bleed through. Though these defects may affect the outside area of the poster, the artwork must be in tip-top shape.
  • Posters in fair to poor condition may have tears, paper loss, fading and defects in the artwork. The rarity of the poster determines the value. Rare posters in poor condition can be restored.

  • Choose a category for your poster collection and research it extensively. This will give you self-confidence when you buy, sell, or trade items. Vintage posters must be handled with much care. Paper can tear easily if handed excessively. You should also wear white cotton or silk gloves. Skin oil will leave blemishes on the poster as it ages.
  • Posters should always be stored flat, never rolled or folded. Keep them in a cool, dry place out of reach of sunlight. UV rays will fade the color and images on the poster.
  • If you wish to display your poster collection, use a plastic sleeve that is acid-free. These cost between $9 and $15, buying the more expensive is well worth the preservation of your posters. Use care when you insert the poster. If possible, recruit an extra pair of hands to ensure the poster does not catch on the sleeve and tear. Be sure to insert an acid-free backboard into the sleeve with each poster. Backboards can be purchased at picture framing stores. This prevents the poster from sticking to the plastic sleeve.
  • Restoration of a poster is very expensive. Never attempt to do this yourself. If the poster is worth it, hire a professional restorer. Both market and sentimental value should be taken into account when deciding whether or not to have a poster restored.

  • If you wish to have a poster framed, take it to a professional framer who will recognize its worth. Framed posters should always be matted to prevent them from touching the glass. Backboard should always be acid-free. If your poster is worth more than $200 have it backed with linen and double mounted.
  • A linen backing makes posters more durable and helps to protect them. Professional restorers use this method to return posters to their original condition. Posters that are linen backed bring higher prices.
  • Now that you know the basics that apply to movie poster collecting, all you have to do is choose a category, research it and set out to find your first poster. Don't buy the first one you see. Take your time and make a good choice. Buy something that you especially like. Our first poster will always be dear to your heart and will have great sentimental value. It probably will remain in your collection forever.
  • Movie poster collecting can bring much pleasure to both the collector and those around him though don't expect friends and family to be as excited about your most recent addition as you are. After all, it is your collection.
