make-jewelry-look-expensive-jewelry-hack I have a confession. I love cheap costume jewelry, especially in the summer. There's nothing better than buying a pair of cute earrings, rings or bangles from a quick fashion store or an NYC street vendor. However, sometimes the jewelry just screams costume and cheap.
