Kilter collection by Twisted Silver

One of the huge trends for spring/summer 2013 is bubbly jewelry. With the mod trend in full force, and playful style still hot for spring, lighthearted and round jewelry is front and center for the current season.

Designers such as Chanel showed large groups of pearl-like baubles on the runway for spring 2013. This hot bubble jewelry trend is easy to wear with the current mod trend as well as with more conservative styles; for a little fashion-forward twist to a simple look. Twisted Silver’ new “Kilter” collection fits into this category perfectly.

Twisted Silver’s new “Kilter” collection is a fabulous and versatile collection which includes a bracelet, necklace and earrings. The “Kilter” collection is made from rosy brass and evokes a vintage feeling. Each piece features an edgy chain with a giant ball which is placed carefully off-center or “off-Kilter.”

The bracelet and necklace can easily be combined to create a long necklace or worn separately. The “Kilter” bracelet is also very easy to stack with other bracelets. Twisted Silver’s “Kilter” collection can easily be worn from day into evening and works perfectly with 2013’s color of the year; emerald green. Love that!

The “Kilter” collection debuts online today at Twisted-Silver.com and is priced at $40-$60. Use code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous

Twisted Silver’s new Bolo Collection for spring 2013

One of the big, incoming trends in jewelry for the spring 2013 season is the dainty trend. Dainty and petite jewelry is the contrasting trend in jewelry to the stacked, bold jewelry trend which has been popular for the past few seasons. Designers for spring 2013 have either taken the dainty route, or have continued with the bold trend for the upcoming warm weather season. This gives Fashionistas the perfect opportunity to be bold one day, and dainty the next! Love that!

The new “Bolo” collection from Bay Area jeweler Twisted Silver is the perfect answer to the season’s hot dainty jewelry trend. The matching earrings and necklace can be worn together or apart while maintaining a dainty and feminine flair with a slight edge. After all, it would not be Twisted Silver if it was not at least slightly edgy! 

Twisted Silver’s “Bolo” collection offers soft movement and an understated, copper color. The tassel-like design features tiny little copper balls on the ends of the thin chains which add the perfect finishing touch to the pieces. The copper hue allows the necklace and earrings to blend easily with both gold and silver; this is handy since metallics are hot for spring 2013! Mixed metals; love this!

The “Bolo” collection can easily be worn with casual attire or with dressy attire; making it the perfect, versatile collection for the spring 2013 season. The “Bolo” collection also evokes a classic and timeless vibe; making the pieces great investment jewelry! Fabulous!

Twisted Silver’s “Bolo” collection debuts online today at twisted-silver.com. The necklace is priced at $40 and the earrings are priced at $30. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous
