Cubic zirconia heart shape jewelry has been especially popular for the last year or so, and you’ll find a great selection if you’re looking for a special heart Diamonique or cubic zirconia set this Valentine’s day. You’ll find plenty of pave detailing such as in the Esposito Diamonique Heart CZ Earrings available at QVC.   This sweet pair of heart cz drop earrings, priced at under $35  is made with sterling silver and are a lever back style.  Also popular are charm bracelets with a substantial heart charm encrusted in Diamonique cz gemstone detail.  Giving a heart cz earrings and bracelet or heart pendant necklace set is always a treasured Valentine’s Day gift.

If you didn’t already know, we love a heart jewelry set (hint, hint) – even if we don’t always wear the pieces together. Another great heart-shaped cubic zirconia jewelry option is this dazzling sterling silver open heart pendant trimmed with sparkling cz ice. It comes on an exquisite 18″ sterling silver chain. And THEN, you also get adorable heart cz stud earrings. The set is a steal at $27.99. Visit Massini Sterling Silver CZ Ice Open Heart Pendant w/Earrings for more details.

Another cubic zirconia jewelry set that will really impress is this Multicolored Heart Cluster Earrings and Pendant Set. Colored cubic zirconia gemstones, particularly in clusters like this continue to be incredibly popular. The heart cz earrings and heart pendant necklace set features canary, champagne and green colored cz stones for a fresh, highly wearable look for spring. The cz earrings and necklace can both be purchased individually, but when you buy the set, you save ten dollars.

We love snowflake design cubic zirconia jewelry like these stud earrings and necklace/pin combination.  The snowflake motif reminds us of cutting out paper snowflakes in grade school, and our boundless excitement for Christmas winter vacation.

A holiday jewelry must, these elegant sterling silver Cubic Zirconia Snowflake Earrings have hypoallergenic posts, and 2 carats of hand cut cubic zirconia stones. Their perfect, delicate shape sparkles, while the snowflake’s symmetry gives each piece a calm, balanced feel.  They coordinate beautifully with a Cubic Zirconia Snowflake Pin/Pendant necklace that comes suspended on an 18-inch rope chain.

Best of all, they’re guaranteed to never melt!

Layered cubic zirconia chain necklaces are all about relaxed glamour created by multiple strands of differing lengths. Draping beautifully around the neck, you’ll see this sparkling cz jewelry look in both casual and red carpet situations. There are two ways to achieve the layered cubic zirconia chain necklace style. Both ways feature long “station chains” where you have a sterling silver or gold chain punctuated every 1-3 inches by a cubic zirconia gemstone. This cz gemstone detail, often round and bezel set goes all the way around the length of the dainty necklace. Because of the number and breadth of stones, this layered style of necklace makes a stunning visual impact.

The first way to wear a shimmering layered cz necklace look is by selecting one or more different necklaces of varying lengths. Mix station chains with some hanging close to the neck and others at the chest or even waist level. You may also combine cz station necklaces with other types of chains. This is a great look because you have the flexibility to adjust the necklaces to best accent your outfit and neckline. Longer necklaces can be worn as is, or wrapped one or more times around the neck. One gorgeous example is this Bezel-Set Contessa Cubic Zirconia Necklace that can be worn as a single, long necklace or wrapped two or more times around the neck.

Another way to achieve the multi-layer necklace look is with a pre-layered single necklace comprised of several strands secured together at the clasp. In this style, you are wearing one necklace, but it contains 3-8 chains highlighted with cubic zirconia. Each chain falls at a different length and gives the impression of wearing multiple necklaces.

What timing!  After yesterday’s post about cubic zirconia beads for jewelry making, we received a catalogue in the mail from Fire Mountain Gems, one of the largest, friendliest and most well-regarded bead and gemstone companies we know.  This got us looking at the cubic zirconia beads currently available as inspiration for jewelry making, or if you prefer, jewelry buying.

Looking for some reasonably priced cubic zirconia options?  You can buy a flawless, brilliant cut colored cz pendant to wear on an existing chain for just a few dollars.  (And with bead shopping, the more you buy, the less each unit will cost!).  Another example would be cubic zirconia studs that come with a small loop on the bottom.  These are sold in packages of two. You can attach any type of charm or bead to the bottom of the cz stone, and you’ll have a fabulous pair of danging earrings.  For under fifteen dollars per bracelet, you can buy chains that feature faceted gemstones as part of its design.  Then, consider adding various beads and charms to the bracelet for an extra sparkly and fun holiday look.
