The Biggest Jewelry Trends for Holidays 2013!

You know there’s no way you’re going to be wearing those cheesy snowman earrings your great aunt gave you last year and you can’t stand out with your go-to pearl necklace like you always so do every year. So this holiday season, whether you spend it with family or attend a workplace party with colleagues, check out these latest jewelry trends to update your look.

Shapes and patterns

Like a classic Christmas sweater, go bold with different shapes and pattern details in your jewelry, but with a much more charming look. Bib-necklaces are still in this winter with various shapes of circles, rectangles, and triangles. Select a single bold necklace or try to layer several necklaces with similar styles. The idea is to mix it up, but without any clashing. You can even select different lengths of necklaces, but make sure they are at least similar in both color and style.

Jewel tone colors

You can never go wrong with jewel tone colors in the midst of winter. Bold and deep shades of red, purple, green, and blue look classic on anyone and everyone. For winter 2013, one of the most popular shades is a cobalt blue shade, but if you prefer light over dark colors, feel free to go with either Turquoise or Larimar jewelry instead of Sapphire. These two light blue gemstones will shine bright through the night!

One popular trend on the runway is to accessorize models with not only jewel tones, but tiaras on top of their heads and large earrings in the shape of crosses as if they were royalty. Instead of wearing jewels around your neck, you can wear them in your hair as a head band or with a single bold hair clip and make a bold statement with jewels dangling from your ears as crosses like the models or with another noticeable shape to stand out in the crowd.

Blue ombre

Blue tones continue on with the ombre look as well this winter from clothing to accessories. If you decide to wear any shades of ombre, think of keeping the rest of your outfit simple. The gradual difference from light to dark will be sure to draw enough attention on its own. Search for dip-dyed cloth earrings or segmenting beads that changes flawlessly from one shade to the next.

Wear a charming scarf

Winter is the time to break out your most fashionable scarves but you can spice it up with a scarf charm as well. It’s a cute new way to add some extra color and bling to your look and instead of owning multiple scarves, a couple of different charms can do the trick to change it up whenever you want.

Keeping it natural

If you wish to pair your outfit with accessories that are natural and simple with natural gemstones. Instead of wearing blue or other winter shades, bring warmth to your outfit with an Amber gemstone. You really can’t get more natural than with an Amber gemstone anyways. Catching the light just perfectly, this gemstone is actually made from fossilized tree resin and you can sometimes find bits of nature such as leaves and twigs left inside from long ago.

Mixing up shapes, patterns, colors, and charms to your outdoor gear are perfect for updating your look this winter and to stay on top of the latest trends from the runway. From shades of blues with Turquoise and Larimar gemstones to honey with Amber. You can go trendy and bold without any reindeer pins or stick with classic and simple without wearing the pearl necklace you’ve already worn every other year before now.
