Jewelry isn't just for women!

Jewelry isn't just attractive to women, it's attractive to women seeing it on men. Tired of shopping jewelry for her? Isn't it time to have a few interesting pieces of jewelry to compliment your outfits and personality? Let's skip the diamond studs, and go straight to the stylish and masculine bracelets and necklaces. You may opt for a heavy gold link chain but with the prices of gold as high as they are, sterling silver, stainless steel and titanium could become the perfect choice in men's jewelry.

Sterling silver jewelry for men is hot. It compliments any outfit, suit at your office or jeans at your friends barbecue, cool will be the word of the day. Sterling silver jewelry has an ultimate masculine look. If you like the slicker, more refined look, titanium stainless steel offer great designs in bracelets and rings. Stylish and equally masculine, you'll never want to take it off your wrist.

Today's men's jewelry are not gaudy, they exude inner strength, virility and simplicity. Men's fashion hasn't been this cool since years! Unlike gold jewelry and diamond; silver, titanium and stainless steel are not only more stylish but also reasonably priced.

Going Green!

Since green is the color of this month, I can't help but think about this "going green" craze. Yes I believe part of it seems to be a trend, though I am hopeful it becomes more of a way of life. There are many reasons to change our ways of living and thinking in order to create an environment change for our children and grand children's future. Change, after all, is the only certainty in the world. So why not nudge it in the direction that will create a cleaner, safer environment.

At Jewels quest, we have taken small steps to promote this thinking by using recycled gold to create new pieces. It's a small step that we intent to continue in a more consistent way. In our private lives, we have found several ways to contribute. Since our first baby girl, who blessed us in 2006, we started purchasing non-toxic household cleaners. We make sure to recycle, and will walk rather than drive, when ever possible.

There's a list of things one can do to help the planet. It's true that it is difficult for people to do too many things all at once, so start out small with whatever you feel comfortable doing.

A few examples:

Avoid Fast Food. Most fast food is over packaged and most fast-food companies are responsible for producing mountains of trash. By avoiding fast food whenever possible, you'll help reduce this needless waste.

Bike Instead Of Ride. Riding your bike instead of riding in a car saves energy and reduces pollution, of course. But it is also fun! That makes it a double benefit.

Reuse A Bag. Some people believe that bags made of trees--paper bags--are less harmful to the earth than bags made of chemicals--plastic bags. The fact is, making both types of bags creates a lot of pollution, and both paper and plastic bags use a lot of resources. So neither is much better than the other. The best solution is not to use any bag at all, or to bring your own bag. Some people carry a canvas or mesh bag they can use over and over. If you must use a paper or plastic bag, don't throw it away. Try to use the bag over and over--as many times as you can.
