The Evolution of Cubic ZIrconia Jewelry

It's been a long time ago when jewelry is always bought as an expensive jewelry. These days however, jewelry is used as an expression of fashion and individual style rather than status. This means that the rule of thumb 'the more expensive the better' no longer applies. It also means that jewelry can now be bought in a wider variety of places: markets, high street shops and online. The use of jewelry as a mere style and not status statement has resulted in the popularity of less expensive stones and metals, in particular, cubic zirconia heart necklaces have experiences a huge rise in popularity.

The heart shape stone pendant was originally marketed as a diamond simulation; it shares many of the qualities of diamonds. However, these days it has developed into a popular and attractive stone in its own right. This means that it is now possible to buy cubic zirconia necklaces, earrings and sterling cz bracelets for very low prices.

The good news about this trend is that now everyone can afford a little glamour in their lives. Cubic zirconia doesn't represent a false economy as many people often claim about cheaper goods. In fact, cubic zirconia heart necklaces which are well looked after can last as long as diamond ones.

What is even better is that now that such jewelry can be bought in high street fashion shops and online, the variety of jewelry available is much wider. No longer are traditional designs dominating; contemporary variations are more and more available, so there is no need to follow the crowd.

In all, the change in jewelry trends can only be a good thing. We have more choice of what to buy and where to buy it. We also have access to the most beautiful cubic zirconia heart necklaces, cubic zirconia hoop earrings and bracelets at a fraction of the price we used to pay. In fact we can even buy them online from the comfort of our own sofas!
