Wearing the finest celebrity trendy jewelry isn’t always easy if you have no place to go all dressed up. Especially in more rural areas or the suburbs, there may just not be a whole lot of places you can wear out your very nice jewelry. That’s why we put together this list, to give you a few ideas of where you should go when you want to put on your finest.

1. Charity Events

This is the classic venue for the well to-do to mix and mingle, but these events are also popular with other groups as well. Charity auctions and other large events will provide the perfect venue to show off your new trendy jewelry for a style that is all your own.

2. French-American Restaurants

Most French-American establishments in the U.S. are higher priced than your average Applebees and also a few steps above in terms of dress. That doesn’t mean there will be an official dress code, but often these rules

3. Steakhouses

No, not a chain steakhouse. This kind of steakhouse is a locally run establishment that specializes in steaks, atmosphere and often live music such as jazz or classical. Again, not usually a dress code, but it is a place to acceptably wear that gorgeous trendy necklace you just bought!

4. Weddings

Unless it is a VERY casual wedding, you can slip into your finest jewelry for this occasion. You don’t have to match the theme of the wedding, unless you are in the wedding party, so don’t worry too much about that. Just match the formal tone and your own ensemble and you will be set.

5. Graduations

Try not to outshine the grad here, but college graduations are the perfect time to bust out your favorite cocktail ring, especially if there is a reception afterward.

There are a few ideas to get you going — We’ll wrap this list up early next week.
