When I was in New York for fashion week, I took a break from the shows in order to visit Kendra Scott’s showroom in the Garment District. As a fan of her jewelry, I found myself walking into jewelry heaven! The showroom featured Kendra Scott’s classic collection, the Spring 2015 “Avant Garden” collection, her summer 2015 “Via Maya” collection, and a peek her fall 2015 collection, which is in progress. 

Kendra Scott’s spring 2015 collection, “Avant Garden” is a beautiful and dreamy collection filled with pastel agate, opal, quartz, and drusy. The stones are set in gold, silver, and rose gold settings. There were edgy styles like crawler earrings, bold statement earrings such as the “Kaki Earrings,” and seasonal takes on her classic collection. I have fallen in love with the “Susanna Bracelets,” and every necklace in the collection. I cannot wait to collect a few pieces!

For summer 2015, Kendra Scott took her inspiration from the mystifying jungles of The City of Dawn, Tulum, Mexico, and the Mayan culture. The collection has taken a bold turn away from her classic collection, yet successfully captured the appeal which has placed her on the fashion map. Although the designs are new and exciting, the summer 2015 “Via Maya” collection stays true to the brand; you will be impressed!

Due in stores April 15, 2015, Kendra Scott’s “Via Maya” collection for summer 2015 offers bright colors, triangular tiering, and a vibe which will transport you to an exotic beach location in Mexico. Not only do I have many of the summer 2015 pieces on my wish list, I am suddenly craving a vacation to Mexico!

Here are a few pictures of the summer 2015 “Via Maya” collection due in stores April, 2015.

Gunmetal jewelry for fall 2014

gunmetal jewelry fall 2014

Gunmetal jewelry has been creeping into fashion over the past few seasons, and for fall 2014, designers and brands have put the darkened metal front and center. Gunmetal jewelry is being shown in every way imaginable from the main metal of a piece to an accent mixed with other metals and materials. 

For fall 2014, gunmetal jewelry offers an understated vibe which is less flashy than silver or gold. In addition to being quiet, gunmetal jewelry for fall 2014 can make a piece significantly edgier than the same piece offered in gold, rose gold or silver. Love that!

Gunmetal jewelry can easily be mixed with white metal jewelry to create a personal take on the trend. Gunmetal jewelry is also being shown paired with jet black jewelry in order to create a dark, cool weather look which is a little bit rock n’ roll.

It was only natural that jewelry would be offered in gunmetal options for the fall 2014 season. Over the past few years, designers such as Chanel, Dior, Hermes, and more have started to offer gunmetal and black hardware on their handbags. This darkened, understated handbag hardware has inspired a trend in jewelry which is just as popular for fall 2o14 as traditional gold and white metals.

As gunmetal jewelry gains momentum on the street, designers and brands from all price points are also showing handbags with gunmetal and black hardware. This signals a big uptick in the trend which is showing no sign of slowing down as we move into the spring 2015 season and beyond.

I love pairing gunmetal jewelry with black, grey and cool tones this autumn season. I feel like it adds a fresh take on my overall look. When a jewelry piece is gunmetal, it can be large and complicated yet still maintain a less “flashy” look.

What do you think of the gunmetal trend for the fall 2014 season? Are you wearing it? Is it something you would like to try?

Kendra Scott’s jewelry collection has been around for several years, yet I have never really looked too deep into the collection. When Kendra Scott previewed her fall 2014 collection at the RewardStyle party during New York Fashion Week, I was thrilled to get an up-close look at a beautiful jewelry collection I had never really looked at before. The fall 2014 collection featured classic and colorful pieces which are a trademark of Kendra Scott’s long-term collection. Her fall 2014 collection also featured on-trend items such as the bracelet pictured above and the amazing ring featured in these photos. There were so many beautiful pieces from Kendra Scott’s fall 2014 collection showcased at the event, that I now have a mile-long wish list of pieces I would like to buy! Now, all I need is a money tree in my backyard so that I can afford all my fall “wants!” Such is life. . .

My Kendra Scott fall 2014 collection wish list items are in the shopping widget below. Which pieces do you love?
