Summer Jewelry Fashion News

Your sense of fashion should be about what you love. Make your jewelry help you come alive. Earrings, necklaces and bracelets swing, twist, tumble flicker, flash and dangle. Curves, waves, spirals and swooshes are found in jewelry of every price and style.

Look around at what women are wearing - note the jewelry the women newscasters and other TV personalities are wearing to make their fashion style pop. Whether your style is soft and feminine or lots of bling and bold, your look will be in fashion this season.

First of all take a survey of the jewelry you already have. Does it mix and match? Is it what your fashion personality is sporting right now? Maybe you only need to purchase a couple of new pieces and you'll be able to let your spirits ring out.

Although most jewelry really doesn't go out of of style, this summer curves often replace sharp angles and not all circles are perfectly round. Natural stones and organic beads top the "want" list for many of us. You'll note that summer jewelry, such as long chains, necklaces and bracelets are often asymmetrical. That may or may not be something you are comfortable with.

Bracelets are in. Mix and match different styles for a special look. Large cuff bracelets are fun and can be paired with a couple of thin and more plain styles. Mix colors to go with your t-shirts or mix different metals for fun looks. Ankle bracelets can often be worn as a regular bracelet - and can add character when you pair them with a couple other bracelets of your choice.

If you have a great gold or silver necklace, you can change the whole look of your jewelry fashion and even outfit of the day by changing pendants. Perhaps you'd wear a gold or silver - or a combination of gold and silver one day. Then another day you'd add a chunky and more colorful pendant to enhance the tone of your outfit. Buying single slides or pendants is an inexpensive way to change the look of your necklace and your jewelry wardrobe.

Border chain necklaces are in. Wear a shorter necklace and then border it with a chunky chain or perhaps a colorful bead chain. Take a good look at your jewelry. Long chains can possibly be worn as a belt or they can be doubled around your neck and worn in layers. They can also be worn doubled then tied under your neck and dangled down.

If bold color isn't for you, try a softer look with neutral tones and natural stones or shells. They can make you come across as calm and glowing. Natural beauty of both your jewelry and you will be noticed every day.

Some looks never go out of style. Certainly you should feel comfortable wearing your precious jewelry, and it's OK to mix and match even very expensive jewelry with fun finishing touches.

Remember, even if you can't afford many new summer clothes, your jewelry can make a simple black t-shirt have a totally different look every day of the week.

Be aware that bright colors, neutrals, golds and silvers, beads of every shape and size, clunky or feminine - and the strategic look of black and white are always striking. Whether you pick up something great and cheap at a garage sale, or if that piece you've been wanting so badly is on sale, have fun with it. Take a risk with your jewelry. People will notice and you will feel great.

Only one thing - yes you can wear several bracelets, several strands of necklaces or other jewelry as you choose, but don't go out looking like a "Christmas tree." If you choose several striking and powerful bracelets, maybe some fun earrings complete the look. Or maybe it's several strand of necklaces, plain earrings and a fun ring. Just look in the mirror and be your own powerhouse of current fashion.

Places to find great jewelry range all the way from garage sales, grandma's jewelry box, department stores, online, jewelry stores and direct sales with home parties.
