How to Upgrade Bling
Bling is used to describe the glitter of gold and other jewelry worn by hip-hoppers. But the word has gone mainstream and almost everyone, from the suburban housewife to the urban teen, wears bling, shows off bling in pictures and videos and always wants more bling. Bling can begin with the cheap stuff from the flea market and graduate to the Tiffany's blue box.
Step
1
Upgrade one piece at a time. Bling should glitter, so it will take a whole lot of cash to get the shine and bling from a string of diamonds or a shiny new diamond pendant.
Step
2
Wear your real, upgraded bling with your cheap jewelry. A true jewel connoisseur will notice the difference, while others will notice the total package.
Step
3
Add bling to other accoutrements that you wear, such as hair clips and belts. This can be a cheaper way to upgrade your bling ratio while not adding too much gaudy or expensive jewelry to your wardrobe. If you love your gold or silver plated bling and still want to upgrade, put it on your waist and continue wearing your favorite bling around your neck, on your fingers and in your ears.
Step
4
Put bling on your computer in a new software package of the same name. It allows you to add sparkle and glitter and other fun extras to your pictures.
Step
5
Stretch your bling budget and add some of the shiny stuff to your ride. Chrome wheels will add to your street cred, while real bling hanging from your rearview mirror is a picture of prosperity.
Tips & Warnings
Talk about your upgrades to platinum or white gold only to those you trust.
Flashing and bragging will excite the thieves and get you in a whole lot of bling trouble.
Make sure your upgraded bling comes with really tight hooks and clips. You don't want to be dancing up a storm and have it fly across the room.
Don't put your bling on over a sink. Drop a real piece of platinum down a drain and you will sink yourself. Put it on over a counter or dresser, then check it out in the mirror over the sink.
