The return of the bracelet stack for summer 2020

bucket bag trend 2020

They’re baaaaa-aaaaaack!

Stacking up a ton of bracelets is back! It may just be the hottest jewelry trend this summer. So, grab all your bangles, bracelets and cuffs-and stack ’em up!

This is a really fun trend because you don’t have to choose which bracelet to wear with your outfit; you can wear them all! Hopefully you have your stackable bracelets collecting dust in your jewelry box from roughly eight years ago when everyone’s arms were having a party. If you want to freshen up your stack, the perfect bracelet to add to your stack, in order to make it truly 2020, is a chain bracelet.

Chain bracelets and chain necklaces were hotter than hot in the ’80’s and early ’90’s. This chunky, funky jewelry style is back; and it is begging to be stacked with the bracelets you already own in your collection. It’s an easy way to update your bracelet stack. Love that!

While gold-tone bracelet stacks are the ultimate metal color, you can mix and match any metal color your choose. If you prefer silver or rose gold, or you like black metals, stack ’em up! The fun thing about bracelet stacks is that they are individual. No-one else will stack like you. You may match with someone else with one bracelet, but there is a 99.9% chance your other bracelets will not match someone else. That means your bracelet stack will be unique, and very you! Love!

What do you think of the bracelet stack trend? Did you rock it last time? Will you wear it this time? I wore it last time, and I am loving it this time!

My favorite summer 2020 handbag trends are the 90’s baguette, straw bags, bright colors and metallics, soft pouches, and bucket bags. Hobo bags are emerging as a hot trend for fall. They still feel a little old fashion to me, but I will give the trend a try with one from my collection. Over-sized bags, which will be huge this fall, are hard to wear on a daily basis. I always find my things get lost inside! It’s definitely a treasure hunt kind of bag. haha

New York Fashion Week color trends for fall 2020

Cho Cheng fall/winter 2020/21 New York Fashion Week

Pantone has released the top ten colors, and top four neutral hues, for the fall/winter 2020/21 season straight from the runways of New York! They are vivid, happy, and uplifting. Three cheers for a bright fall season!

The fall/winter 2020/21 season is returning to simplicity. As trends move towards a more sustainable fashion industry, and consumers look to a more minimalist lifestyle, the color trends for the fall season have moved towards simple, common hues which you could easily find in the least expensive crayon box.

While brighter hues may not instantly scream “minimal” to you, they are being simplistic through their uncomplicated pigmentation, and easy-to-identify shades. This is a clean, and easy, color palette to incorporate into any wardrobe. You may even find you already own many of these colors! Love that!

Top four neutral colors from New York Fashion Week fall/winter 2020/21

While not listed as a top ten color, fuschia and bright pink were also spotted frequently on the runways for the fall/winter 2020/21 season at New York Fashion Week. Designers such as Cho Cheng, Ulla Johnson, and Self-Portrait, showed this happy and bright hue in their collections.

Without further ado, here are a few examples of the top colors on the runways of New York! I included the bright pink, because I kind-of love it!!

What do you think of the new fall 2020 color palette from New York Fashion Week? Do you have a favorite hue? Mine, of course, is blue!
