Twisted Silver Techno earrings for spring 2013

Spring 2013 is whimsical and lighthearted. Jewelry for the upcoming warm weather season is equally carefree. With the vivid pastel trend, bright color trend and neon trend, it is important for spring 2013 to wear jewelry which mimics the “anything-but-understated” vibe of the season without competing with apparel.

Twisted Silver’s new “Techno” earrings are perfect for the upcoming spring 2013 season. The large and bold look of the earrings combined with the soft brass color makes them easy to wear with all of springs’ color trends. They also happen to be easy to wear from day into evening; love that!

The new “Techno” earrings from Twisted Silver also work well with the print trend for spring 2013. Florals, painterly prints, geometric patterns, color blocking and more are hot looks for fabric this spring. Twisted Silver’s “Techno” earrings blend well with all of the print trends; making them instant “go-to” earrings for the season. Fabulous!

The Jumbo Collection from Twisted Silver

One of the biggest trends in jewelry on the spring/summer 2013 runways was the giant pearl. Designers, especially in Paris, paired various colors of jumbo pearls together to create bold clusters of pearls. The large-scale pearls and balls were paired with lady-like ensembles and classic styles adding a modern twist to a timeless vibe.

The jumbo pearl jewelry trend from the runway has already started to hit the streets. Twisted Silver first gave a nod to the giant pearl trend when they released the “Swank” collection last week. The “Swank” Collection gave Fashionistas a classic yet edgy way to rock this 2013 jewelry trend. Today, Twisted Silver has released the “Jumbo” collection which is bigger and bolder than any other pearl collection we have seen in the past from the Bay Area Jeweler. The “Jumbo” Collection also offers more of a feminine, funky, and slightly edgy vibe than the “Swank” collection offered.

The “Jumbo” collection has just the right mix of metallics and pastels on large pearls. This makes the “Jumbo” collection the perfect accessory to spring/summer 2013’s pastel hues, A-line skirts and lady-like dresses. In addition to working well with pastels, the “Jumbo” collection easily blends with spring/summer 2013’s bright colors, prints and patterns. Love that!

The earrings are neutral and feature one gigantic, silver pearl dangling on a silver chain. The earrings can easily be worn everyday and night with any ensemble from casual through to party attire. 

Twisted Silver’s “Jumbo” bracelet can be worn alone or stacked with other bracelets to create a casual or dressy, personalized look.

The “Jumbo” collection from Twisted Silver debuted online today at Twisted-Silver.com. The bracelet is priced at $40 and the earrings are priced at $30. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous
