TWO FUN 2019 SUMMER JEWELLERY TRENDS

As seen on the ears of fashion editors and the necks of your favourite style-gurus, shells and colourful statement resin pieces are 2 of the biggest summer jewellery trends in 2019. The simple addition of a bold or interesting earring or neck piece can elevate any outfit. These trends are fun and easy-to-wear. Another great thing about these 2019 summer jewellery trends is that they don’t have to break the bank. Prices start at “totally affordable”!

SHELL JEWELLERY

Shells are totally having a moment and are probably the biggest 2019 summer jewellery trend. Shell-adorned earrings, necklaces, bracelets and even anklets have popped up on the street style set since last summer. Luxury e-commerce site Net-A-Porter has even confirmed that shells have been a ‘huge’ trend for them. We’re now seeing them migrate to accessories like belts, bags and summer sandals as well so keep a lookout.

The key to slaying this 2019 summer jewellery trend is layering. Cowrie shell chokers are often worn with a number of longer, more delicate chains with pendants. More is definitely more with this summer look that’s not only reserved for the beach.
