Daisy Mancia | August 20, 2024
As summer unfolds, I get excited to refresh my jewelry collection. After speaking with many of our customers who visit the store, I’ve gathered some fantastic insights into this season's vibrant jewelry trends that capture the essence of summer. Whether you’re heading to a beach party or out for an intimate dinner date, these top 6 summer jewelry trends will help you stay stylish:
1. Bold and Bright Gemstones
One trend I've noticed this summer is the enthusiasm for bold gemstones. Radiant rubies, vivid sapphires, and stunning emeralds are making waves this season. These striking stones add a pop of color to any outfit, making them ideal for casual outings to elegant evening events. A ruby pendant or london blue topaz ring can instantly elevate your look with a touch of sophisticated charm.
2. Chunky Jewelry
Chunky jewelry is making a major comeback this summer, I saw this firsthand at the JCK convention in Las Vegas. Oversized necklaces, bold bracelets, statement rings, and doorknocker earrings are all the rage. These standout pieces provide a modern, edgy vibe to any outfit, making them perfect for adding a sophisticated flair to both everyday looks and special occasions. Try layering a chunky chain necklace over a simple dress or pairing bold cuffs with your favorite off the shoulder summer ensemble.
3. Layered Necklaces
The art of Layering necklaces continues to captivate many customers. Mix and match different lengths and styles to create a personalized look that adds dimension to your outfit. Combining delicate chains with pendant or pairing a chic lariat with a sleek choker allows you to create a look that’s both stylish and versatile, perfect for transitioning from day to night.
4. Nature-Inspired Designs
As someone who loves nature, I can truly appreciate how nature-inspired jewelry reflects the summer’s charm. From floral motifs to sea-themed designs, nature-inspired pieces bring a whimsical touch to your summer wardrobe. Look for necklaces with bold starfish or rings adorned with flowers to celebrate the season’s natural beauty with a unique and playful style.
5. Minimalist Gold
I’ve noticed a growing love for minimalist gold jewelry in my INSTORE magazine, and it’s easy to see why. The sleek and understated gold pieces offers a timeless look that appeals to many. I recommend opting for thin gold diamond cut bands, sparkly hoop huggies, or dainty signature name necklaces that are comfortable enough to wear everyday. These classic pieces are perfect for layering or wearing on their own, providing a refined and polished touch to your summer style.
6. Stackable Rings
One of the most fun trends I've observed is the rise of stackable rings, which allow us to express our personal style creatively. Mix and match asymmetrical designs, stone shapes, birthstones and precious metals to create a unique and eye-catching look. Whether you prefer dainty bands or bold statement rings, stacking allows you to curate a style that’s all your own.
So, as we soak up these last days of summer, why not treat yourself to a little jewelry refresh? I know how busy life can get, especially being a mom on the go, but taking a moment for yourself is so important. Add a touch of sparkle to your outfits and make the most of this season. You deserve to shine, my friend!
