Jewelry Trends - 4 Easy Ways to Add Fresh Flair to an Old Outfit

By Jamie Jefferson.

Nothing adds fresh flair to an old outfit faster than updated jewelry, and the new jewelry trends allow a lot of room for creativity and personal expression.

Here are four easy and inexpensive ways to spice up your wardrobe by adding new jewelry styles.

New-Hued Pearls
Pearls have always been a natural choice for women who want to add class to their outfit. This season, the pearls are taking on a whole new look. Yellow, gold and other autumn colors are making their appearance in pearls. Chocolate brown pearls are also a huge new trend.

The new hues don't stop in the warm shades. Kiwi, raspberry, gray and champagne are all very popular pearl colors, as well. These colors are being used individually or together for unique necklace looks.

Stacked Bracelets
If pearl necklaces aren't your thing, you will like the next popular trend: stacked bracelets. The more bracelets, the better. It doesn't matter what material they are made from: Gold, silver, pearls, and leather are all being used together or in groups of similar colors.

The best thing about stacks of bracelets is that you can take the look in several different ways. You can look for sleek and sophisticated bracelets for a classy look. You can find local artisan bracelets if you want a more bohemian and trendy look. Or you can try chunky beaded bracelets paired with sleek, thin metal bracelets. This jewelry trend lends itself well to mixing and matching, so have fun with it.

Men's Style Watches
Women's watches are always popular, but, this season, the trend in women's watches is men's watches. We're seeing watches that are chunkier than in previous years. Watch bands are available in many different types of leather, as well as some that incorporate metal and stone elements.

Chandelier Earrings
Chandelier earrings are a great way to lengthen the look of your neck and add drama to your look. Chandeliers have come and gone when it comes to fashion, but now they are very popular again. The earrings have a single post and then a long chain with either a drop pearl or another type of jewel. They can either have a single stone or an intricate multi-chain design that are set up similar to real chandeliers.

Have fun this season mixing and matching these new jewelry styles into your existing wardrobe. By splurging on just a couple of new jewelry pieces each season, you can take even a simple black dress to the cutting edge of fashion.
