Jewelry This Season
Spring and Summer Jewelry trends, based on these observations and my own inner fashion diva, here's what will be hot in jewelry this Spring / Summer.
This Spring jewelry is all about making a big statement. Be it with a necklace, a bangle or a big cocktail ring. From ethnic beading or exotic stones, the one thing is constant, it must be big and bold, and colorful. Lots of emphasis on natural colors. Also materials such as stone and wood are big this season in jewelry. The natural feels are a organic and botanical looking beads is a big trend especially in pendants.
Bold and Big - a must in Jewelry this season
Large stones, gemstones , and seed beads are still front runners - "Over the top in size". Natural jewelry pieces are kept big and bold just as last spring.
Pendants, Charms and Single Stones
Is one better than multiple? Single large stones that hang in a pendant configuration are in. Women will be wearing bright and somewhat larger charm bracelets, and necklaces this season .
What's Up With Colors!
Natural to bright - anything goes this spring. The bright colors of nature, think vibrant sunset or soft seascape.
Metals
There is always and always will be room for metals in beaded jewelry. In medals think sleek and modern designs. Look for an even mixed with natural materials like wood and stone beads mixed with medals. This season the medal piece's have taken on a more modern look.
Silver and Gold
Silver is as always hot! But this season gold is making a good comeback. You will see the two metals mixed , to create some wonderful jewelry pieces. Charms, pendants and larger jewelry beads are what what's seen on runways in the new spring lines.
I would describe the perfect bead jewelry necklace for Spring to be comprised of bright, colorful over-sized beads that invoked nature in either their shape or color and the whole piece would be brought together with a tasteful silver and gold gemstone pendant hanging off the neck to bring it all together.
