Pop of green on a cold day

Wearing: sunglasses / star necklace c/o Lois Hill (under $100, use code CathyO-20 to save 20%) / black long sleeve tee / black sweater coat / spring nail polish / bracelets c/o Lois Hill (use code CathyO-20 to save 20%) / green shoulder bag / straight leg jeans (under $100) / golden boots /

We had a tiny little glimpse at spring, and then boom! The weather swung back to winter! Thankfully this sweater coat is super cozy and perfect for staying warm when the weather drops into chilly temperatures.

In order to spice up this basic black sweater coat, I added this beautiful silver jewelry and a pop of green. After all, green is predicted to be one of the top three colors of 2023! So, if you like green, this is your year! Love that!

My spring 2023 trend report is coming up very soon, and one of the topics I will discuss is jewelry. As we move towards anonymous handbags, and far away from loud logos, the trends in jewelry are returning to a more classic and investment minded look. This year, it is time to invest in timeless pieces that can be layered or worn alone. Jewelry should transcend trends, and be something you can invest in. You will want to look for pieces that can be worn for years, even decades. Jewelry you can pass down to your children is main goal. Of course, the early 2000’s bling look is currently reserved for dressier, or formal, occasions. This means for our daily jewelry pieces we want casual investment pieces, or investment pieces we can wear with both jeans and our little black dress. This is why I am in love with Lois Hill Jewelry. They have beautiful, crafted pieces you can layer, wear alone, dress up or down, and wear forever. Love that!

In addition to timeless jewelry, the color trends for 2023 are happy and bright. As you know, magenta and shades of red or pink are hot this year. In addition to magenta, red, and pink, we are looking at colors from the orange family and also the green family. I am not a big fan of the orange family, but when it comes to green, I am huge fan! I love green! Since it is still winter, my green handbag is perfect for rocking the green trend. As I shop for spring, I will be keeping my eyes open for more green; and pink. I love pink too!

Stay tuned! My complete spring 2023 trend report is coming up next on the blog!

Thanks for stopping by!

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!
