This one just brings out the kid in me - purple used to be my favourite color, and things which dangle are so eye-catching ...

I confess, I can have my head turned by a cart of the trashiest costume jewellery - the more sparkle, the better - but these ones here are genuine gemstones in pure gold and platinum. And hey, they look pretty good, too!

Body jewellery refers to jewellery or accessories that you can wear in a specific part of your body. These include earrings, bracelets, necklaces, anklets, barbells, belly rings, belly waist chains, belts and buckles, bent barbells, rings, navel rings, nipple rings, nose rings, toe rings, tongue rings, lip rings, belly button rings, and body jewelry rings.

If you are into body jewellery or you are looking for body jewellery that you can use for your body piercings, online stores and shops can be a good option for you.

Even some very up-market stores have an online presence, so you can order your body jewellery discreetly from the comfort of your own home.

Did you know there were purple diamonds?

There are the famous pink diamonds from South Africa, and from Australia's Argyle mine, opened in 1985, but red and purple diamonds are much more rare.

The scientists who study these things don't know exactly what makes a diamond purple, but hey, who cares? They look fabulous.

Oooh, loaded question!

Technically, ear-rings are body jewellery, and pierced ears have been de rigeur for the jet set for decades.

But, more meaningfully, what about nose piercings? Belly button rings?

The younger generation of wealthy young things are certainly indulging in piercing more than just their ears. Let's face it, if they've got it, they're flaunting it.

However, once you get upmarket boutiques selling pure gold and platinum pieces with real sapphires, amethysts and diamonds, you can tell that acceptance of body jewellery is reaching a whole new level.

Especially in the parts of the body which can be kept discreetly covered in public.

Check out the incredible color of this topaz belly button ring!

For some reason, when you say "topaz", I always think of yellows and browns. This intense blue is just stunning, isn't it?

Body jewellery - it's not just for the young and rebellious.

Anyone who loves the beauty of gems can indulge in decorating their body, for their own enjoyment and the enjoyment of their intimate circle.
