Victoria's Secrets: Hot Jewelry Trends for Summer



Large Earrings:
Large earrings are back again by popular demand. This time around, they look a lot like the styles of the 1980s, with colorful gemstones that look beautiful near the face. Other earring styles that will take spring by storm include marquise-shaped “flutter earrings” comprised of multiple layers of metal layered strategically and made to look like bird wings when the wearer moves her head.

Colorful Bracelets:
Ladies who love to layer will enjoy this trend! Colorful bracelets, whether thick or thin, are all the rage for spring. Cuff bracelets have been very popular over the past two seasons. In spring consumers will shake things up by selecting versions in bright colors. The fine jewelry versions of this trend will feature colorful enamel, black paired with white gemstones, and shiny or matte metal versions.

Multi-Media Necklaces:
 The new necklaces evolve from the fall and winter versions, continuing to be large and colorful. “Shipwrecked” versions, in which many elements of the necklace are tangled and twisted, have hidden treasures and trinkets interspersed throughout the piece. Multi-Strand necklaces that connect in the back are the perfect option for ladies who are trepidations about layering necklaces themselves. Cascading chains with charms as well as mixing various metals are contemporary styles of this trend. Elongated “U” shaped necklaces are also going to be a pretty way to bring attention to simple cotton tops and flowing dresses. The “U” portion is made of beads typically and suspended by chain or fabric for a softer, vintage vibe.

Also hot this summer: Blackened Metals, esp. Sterling Silver and Mixing Metals, pairing Turquoise with Red, Evil Eyes, Fringe, Grey Diamonds, and High/Low Pairings
