Best Body Jewelry to Express Who You Are

Not sure what type of body jewelry to wear? Then maybe you should look to the stars. Astrology can guide you through life and guide your fashion choices. Understand your personality and match it with the best body bling for you.

Tongue rings, belly button rings, earrings, toe rings, and the list goes on. The choice of body jewelry is virtually endless. But how do you know which type of body jewelry is best for you. Maybe you need to look to the stars to discover what your astrology chart says about you.

Aries: March 22-April 20

You want to be the boss so nobody can limit you when it comes to your body jewelry choice. You may prefer a stud necklace or a stud tongue ring. It's your decision.

Taurus: April 21-May 20

You love sentiment. The jewelry that you choose will reflect a special memory which could be a place or a moment.

Gemini: May 21-June 20

You're independent and know a little bit about a lot of things. Your jewelry will reflect this. If you have an interest in tribal cultures, you will opt for tribal jewelry; if you have an interest in botanical gardens, you may get a rose belly ring or tattoo.

Cancer: June 21-July 22

You are tough on the outside but all sentiment on the inside. You may go for a skull and bones design ring but we wouldn't be surprised to find a tattoo of tweety bird on your hip.

Leo: July 23-August 22

You are comfortable in your world and love to be in the spotlight. A dangling diamond or crystal body jewelry would compliment your being.

Virgo: August 23-September 22

You are calm and collected on the surface but raging with passion just beneath your skin. The body jewelry you wear will be just as hot.

Libra: September 23-October 22

You are a romantic at heart but you may seem a little cynical on the outside. Various ear piercings or a nose piercing are an easy choice for you.

Scorpio: October 23-November 22

You are strong, aggressive and very forward. Show off your strengths with the body jewelry that you choose.

Sagittarius: November 23-December 21

You are independent and capable so any type of jewelry that you find attractive will fit you perfectly. Try a toe ring or an unusual precious stone in your pierced jewelry.

Capricorn: December 22-January 19

You love the comforts of home. The metal that you choose for your body jewelry will reflect the warmth of home.

Aquarius: January 20-February 21

You love freedom and enjoy the company of a variety of people. Your body jewelry will be of many styles since you will change it to match the mood that you are feeling on any given day.

Pisces: February 22-March 20

You are mysterious and attractive. Your body jewelry will be chosen by what moves you. You may go for an unusual design or material but you will wear it well.

Express Your Creativity With Body Jewelry By You

Jewelry-making has become more and more popular. If you are looking for something unique and truly "you" in body jewelry, consider creating your own.

There are so many creative people and so many ways to show off your artsy side. If you are into body jewelry such as belly button, nose, or eyebrow rings, did you know you could make your own? Because this type of accessory is already very affordable, you may not save money in doing so but sometimes it is more about being unique and showing the world who you are. After all, isn't that why you got your navel or nose pierced in the first place?

Here are some ideas for getting started:

1. Take a class at your local community college. Most continuing education programs include a jewelry-making class or two. Some people learn better when they can do things hands-on but with the guidance an expert instructor can provide. Oftentimes, the cost of the class includes supplies but pay attention to the fine print when signing up.

2. Take a class at a local craft store or boutique. The craft store chains are starting to pick up on this "do-it-yourself" trend by carrying jewelry-making supplies. They often offer classes for items they carry in the store so check the schedule at the locations in your area. They also usually offer a discount on supplies for those who are taking the courses they offer. Don't forget the small boutiques too! We have a locally owned bead store in our city that offers classes on body jewelry. You may have something like that near you.

3. Search the internet for how-to videos. If you can't find anything local or your prefer to learn at your own pace, you can be sure there is something on the web to help you out: videos, articles, etc. You can also find supplies online.

Once you get started, you should be able to make your own barbells, posts studded with jewels or gems that you like and more. There is no end to the body jewelry you can create!
