Get the Look: Spring Jewelry Trends

TrueFacet Holiday Shops Sale

Spring is in session and we are ready for the new styles that come with the new season. We looked to the spring 2016 runway shows and the most recent round of New York Fashion Week to bring you the most wearable jewelry trends for spring. Check out our favorites, from colorful gemstones to monochrome hardware. We’ll also give you inspiration on how to wear the latest looks.

1. Heavy Metalware

If your style is more no frills than floral and bright, then this may be the trend for you. We’ve seen this look on the runways of Givenchy (pictured), Emilio Pucci, Giambattista Valli, Calvin Klein and Alexander Wang. These designers liked to add an industrial edge with buckles, chains and similar forms. The look can be as simple as a simple, silver chain-link bracelet or necklace, or something more intricate like these earrings from Emilio Pucci.

If you are a fan of this Givenchy look, it’s easy enough to find a similar piece. For a low price point, you can wear this Tiffany necklace. At a higher price point, there’s this Cartier Trinity necklace.

2. Collars and Chokers

This trend has shown no signs of slowing down. The new statement necklace is the quirky collar or choker. It’s absolutely everywhere, making appearances at Bottega Veneta, Coach and Dior (pictured), just to name a few. We like the the collars with a subtle quirk like the blue stone on this Dior choker.

To get this look, find an irregular or unique necklace that sits around the throat or just at the base of your neck. We are fans of many Chanel pieces that utilize crystal and faux pearls for an elaborate baroque design, like this Chanel faux pearl choker. If your style is a little sweeter, then this Christian Dior bow necklace is the perfect, subtle touch.

3. Bold Statement Earrings

Statements are everywhere, but if you aren’t as bold as Marchesa, then perhaps you may want to choose just one statement piece at once this season. Bold, unexpected and eye-catching are the qualities you are looking for when trying out this trend. We’ve seen it at Marchesa (pictured), Oscar de la Renta, Gucci, Proenza Schouler and so many more shows — it’s the style of the season.

The look is easy to tailor to your own style. Do you have a romantic style? Then try a baroque-inspired pair of chandelier earrings. If you have a contemporary look, then find oversized hoops, or drop earrings. To elevate your style to the next week, try the mismatched or single earring trend. We’re fans of these Chanel drop earrings and these blue enamel drop earrings for a pop of color.

4. Colorful Gemstones

Colorful palettes are a must for spring and there’s no better way to achieve the look than with bright, gemstone jewelry! This trend is probably the must fun and cheerful — if it’s large and bright, then put it on! We saw the most elaborate jewelry from Ralph Lauren (pictured) and Marchesa at NYFW in February and couldn’t help but imagine the bright and elaborate gemstone look for spring and summer.

Choose one piece of jewelry — necklace, earrings, bracelets or rings — with an elaborate and colorful gemstone design. This works well with flashy faux stones and precious stones alike. We love these Bulgari sapphire earrings, but at a lower pricepoint, these sterling silver chandelier earrings are perfect too.

5. The Future Is Now

This trend is all about futuristic, modern and sleek jewelry design. Zimmermann (pictured), Opening Ceremony and Public School were among the many designers who have accessorized their shows with contemporary designs. The pieces are typically simplistic, unconventional and metallic, perhaps layered. Long chains and large amounts of negative space are crucial to the designs.

Jewelry that follows this trend is perfect for a simple and sleep look or as an interesting contrast to more feminine clothing and patterns. It’s also easy to incorporate other trends into this look. You can try the hardware look or single earring trend with these Gucci horesebit earrings. You can also try the choker look with this Fred of Paris pearl choker.
