One of the biggest and most popular jewelry trends of-the-moment is the stacked bracelet trend. This trend began to gain popularity a few years ago when Fashionistas on the street started to pile on multiple bracelets at a time. The trend caught on quickly and soon marketers began showing stacked bracelets in advertisements and magazine spreads.

Stacking bracelets becomes even more prevalent in warmer months since warm weather allows for ¾ sleeves, short sleeves and sleeveless attire. This means right now is the time to start stacking up those bracelets if you have not already been doing so!

Stacked bracelets are a fun trend. This street style trend allows you to express yourself and add your own personality to casual clothing, office attire or any ensemble you put together. Love that!

Bracelets can have special meanings too. Perhaps you have a bracelet which you received as a gift, or purchased to benefit a cause. Stacking up these special moments on your wrist can evoke good memories and thoughts throughout the day as well as make a conversation starter. 

When stacking up your arm with bracelets, look for metals which blend well together and colors that do not clash. Texture and dimension can also help make a great bracelet stack.

The Mod trend is hot this spring and summer. No question about it. This trend is taking off and variations of the Mod trend can be seen through color blocking, prints and patterns. One of the amazing facts about the Mod trend is that it is fun and lighthearted; making it a delightful look to put together.

Since the Mod trend includes bright colors and bold patterns as well as geometry, the accessories used to complete the look need to be equally kitschy. Twisted Silver has solved the accessories question through their new “Wilma” collection which not only works perfectly with the Mod trend, color blocking, patterns and prints. The bracelet, which features large, round spheres is an extra-large version of Twisted Silver’s older “Wilma” bracelet worn by celebrities and Fashionistas alike. Love that!

This lightweight collection looks amazing for daytime events as well as evening occasions. The necklace can easily be worn once or twice around the neck in order to compliment your mood or neckline. Love that! The earrings also look amazing worn alone with a turtleneck; especially if you are visiting the snow.

Of course, the “Wilma” collection can also be worn casually; adding a bit of flair to any weekend ensemble. Love that!

The “Wilma” collection is available online at Twisted-Silver.com and is priced at $50-$100. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous

Epic collection by Twisted Silver

There are so many trends on the streets which originated on the runways, or went full circle; from the streets to the runways and back to the streets. One of the current trends, which is extremely popular on the street, is the vintage trend.

Almost every decade is being celebrated on the streets. 1930’s and 1940’s hairstyles are making a comeback while 1950’s era dresses and the 1960’s Mod look are walking off the runways and onto the streets. Ripped or torn jeans from the late 1980’s and early 1990’s are popular with high school and college-age Fashionistas while 1980’s colors, shoulders and shoes are well-loved among thirty-plus-something’s.

Since vintage is in, no matter the decade or century, it is no wonder that jewelry with a vintage look and feel is hot right now. One of the fabulous things about wearing vintage or seemingly vintage jewelry is that it is unique and unlike the jewelry other fashion-savvy women are wearing on the street. After all, why look like everyone else!

The new “Epic” collection from Twisted Silver not only evokes a vintage, old world vibe, it has a Steampunk flair which is difficult to find. This unique collection from Bay Area jeweler Twisted Silver has an industrial edge yet offers a soft, feminine appeal which makes the collection easy to wear with almost trend on the runway or the street. Love that!

Twisted Silver’s “Epic” collection is extremely dynamic. The necklace and earrings can easily work with spring 2013’s floral trend, bright colors trend, vivid pastel trend, neon trend and can even add modern flair to the current Mod trend! Love it!

The new “Epic” necklace and “Epic” earrings from Twisted Silver can also blend easily with the jeweler’s“Epic” bracelet from fall 2012 which was equally unique, edgy and fabulous. The necklace offers a dainty chain and medium-sized pendant which works perfectly with the current jewelry sizes from the spring 2013 and fall 2013 runways. The 1” diameter earrings also fit perfectly into the move towards smaller jewelry as we head into fall 2013.
