Trends in apparel and accessories are what the wearer makes of them. While we attempt to keep you, as prized clientele, abreast of what the fashion industry considers hip, we do recommend that at the end of the day, each of us carries a personal sense of style. Use these trends to enhance your already established look, or break from the conventional look. Now, the fun part is where we actually do a bit of this and a bit of that, and come up with styles that are fresh and suit your personality, since nobody wants what has already been done. So, we could have a contemporary-classic, or a period-inspired contemporary piece of work.
If you’ve found yourself lost for words when it came to describing styles in fashion, specifically in jewelry, the place where you could get acquainted with style is here.
Stack them up!
Perhaps the easiest and most versatile of what is to be expected in 2016 is the stacked bracelet/bangle look. Adorn your wrists with chunky cuffs or assorted bangles to rock this look. Don’t shy away from experimenting with varying colors and precious metals and/or gemstones. Slip on to your wrist, as many pieces as you own for that immensely chic bohemian look. Be mindful of not overdoing this trend by wearing stacks on both wrists; pick one and jingle away!
And pearls are back!
We missed them so! But the focus is back on these elegant gemstones. Versatile as they are, this yer promises to further enhance the adaptability of the gorgeous pearl. Play with varying hues of pink, black, and the quintessential white. Combine beautifully large pearls with tiny glittering diamonds in bold earrings. String interesting shades of pearls together and wear them around your neck in a quirky knotted pattern. We assure you, you will make heads turn! And while we are at it, have you seen our take on the pearl trend with these gorgeously lacquered mother of pearl beads?
Neck and Neck!
You cannot go wrong with the style you pick for your neck this season. If long beaded chains are oh-so-trendy, so are bold collars. Layer long and slender chains with beads or with attention grabbing big pendants in minimalist fashion. Or make a statement with stiff collars of gold and silver with accents and single medallions for added oomph.
Asymmetry is a key!
We know you can pull it off! Try and dangle a large, but single earring from your preferred lobe for a quirky yet chic fashion statement. Alternate large gold and silver beads on a long hooked earring for a more versatile appeal. Or perhaps recreate a peacock feather with precious gemstones and let it steal the show! If being unconventional is your mantra, this trend is for you!
Color me!
We don’t like to boast, but we think we deserve a pat on our backs for predicting and launching this jewelry trend long before the fashion industry caught up with it. Colors! Hues! Vibrancy! It is all about color this season. Single bold colors, or multi-hued gemstones all set in one piece. Our Zephyr Collection in light weight gold stands proud testament to this gorgeous trend. For a little more drama, try color blocking with opposing colors of the color wheel. Amethyst earrings with a yellow outfit Or Turquoise and Emeralds in the same earrings – the world of colors is your oyster, or should we say, your pallet?
