I was thinking about jewellery and how now we have those "gangstas" out there with their long-hanging chains and pants that don't cover half their bum-bums. Jewellery represented wealth, and accented an outfit, just like it does today. After Victoria took the throne, wearing jewellery was considered romantic and nationalistic. Interestingly, black jewellery was designed to symbolize the mourning of someone's death, but soon became a fashion item. I thought these lockets were kind of nice.
