Spring 2021 jewelry trends

spring jewelry trends spring 2021

Spring 2021 jewelry trends from top left: bead gemstone bracelets (only $25 each!) (local jewelry designer) / small hoop earrings (under $50) / pearl drop earrings / statement necklace (under $100) (local jewelry designer!) / statement ring / multi-layer necklace (under $50) /

Now that things are opening up, and we have more places to go, jewelry is starting to be something we are all reaching for more often. Thankfully, spring 2021 is offering us some fun jewelry trends to play with!

The spring season is all about bright and cheery fashion. This includes bold jewelry, and statement making pieces. When I say statement, I don’t mean giant pieces of jewelry, just something unique enough to garner the attention of another fashionista like you.

The top jewelry trends for spring 2021 include:

  • Pearls
  • Bracelet stacks
  • Layered necklaces
  • Statement pendants
  • Statement rings
  • Hoop earrings

Pearls are really hot this spring season. With the fresh white trend, pearls are a natural jewelry trend as they are often soft white! You can complete your all-white look with pearls, or compliment a brightly colored ensemble with pearls. This trend is quite versatile as you can go for classic pearls, or something a little bit more trendy. The only rule with the pearl trend is that your pearls are white; not colored or Tahitian. You can store your Tahitian pearls this season, they will make a comeback soon!

Bracelet stacks are back! Pair your chain bracelets with gemstone bracelets and leather wraps to make the perfect wrist statement! Always remember, three bracelets makes the perfect stack.

Layered necklaces have been a trend for many seasons, so you can continue layering your necklaces as you have been doing. If you haven’t layered yet, what are you waiting for? This is a great way to rock necklaces from your jewelry box which are collecting dust. If you don’t have any, but want to wear the trend, you cans snap up a pre-layered necklace. The pre-layered ones are great because they are less likely to tangle. Love that!

The ’80’s and ’90’s are hot decades in fashion right now, so it is no wonder that hoops are hotter than hot right now! Although considered a classic earring style, hoops are more prominent this season as they seem to just play well with puff sleeves. If you don’t own hoops, invest in a pair this season! There are large hoops, medium hoops, small hoops, twisted hoops, plain hoops; lots of hoops! Pick a pair you love, and rock them throughout 2021.

Lastly, statement pendants, and rings, are hot this year. Look for unique rings, and pendants, which will start a conversation. After all, aren’t we all starved for in-person conversations? This is a great way to get back into being social after the lockdowns! Love that!

Personalized jewelry made in the USA by Messages in Metal

holiday gift ideas messages in metal review personalized necklaces jewelry

There is nothing more fabulous than personalized jewelry. It is incredible to have a special piece of jewelry which bears something personal; whether it be initials, a name,  a date, an event, or something near and dear to your heart. When I heard about Messages in Metal based in Montana, I was thrilled! Here is a company that makes personalized jewelry made in the USA. Love!

Messages in Metal creates a wide variety of jewelry which you can personalize for yourself, or as a gift. They have so many different options to choose from! It’s like being a kid in a candy store! I love the name necklaces, the vintage designs, and the family collection.

I chose to have a necklace created with the names of my three kids. Alongside their name, is their birthstone. It’s an incredibly special necklace I know I will cherish for years to come. I’m also a sucker for bold pieces, so the Tranquility necklace was right up my alley. I love how it’s a bold piece which is eye catching, yet also has a special place in my heart since it reflects the names of my children.

One of the fabulous things I love about Messages in Metal is that they are speedy! I received the necklace roughly a week after ordering it. This is because they are made right here in the USA; more specifically, they are made in Montana! You don’t have to worry about waiting weeks for your jewelry from some factory oversees. It is made right here in the states! Love that!

I love the high quality jewelry Messages in Metal creates. Plus, the prices are really good! You will find most of their jewelry is priced under $100. Love!

To see the entire collection, please visit MessagesInMetal.com.
