Amazing Adornments Fashion and Jewelry Trends - Summer 2006




What’s Hot in Jewelry and What you Need Right Now!

You probably know that WHITE is the color of the season in clothing. It is everywhere! You have seen it on the runway, on television and in all the fashion magazines and store catalogs. You have also probably noticed a return to more feminine fashions and the 80s “Flashdance” style is coming on strong. Colors other than white are paler and fabric is lighter. Soft natural colors such as tan, ecru have been spotted. And I better not forget the classic black and white combination. Metallic is also big!

In haute couture feminine glamour is the thing!

I am sure you noticed all of the knits and crochet shrugs, shrunken jackets and the like. These look especially cute over the summers innocent looking baby doll dresses in white of course. Although color and prints are not to be denied!

So what is hot in costume jewelry right now?

We have spotted long chains with or without insets. Sometimes these chains were layered with shorter chains. White jewelry, wood, bangles and cuffs that are usually quite large, hoop earrings, long earrings embellished some in gold and silver tones. Swinging earrings like chandeliers! Spotted also are large oversize necklaces with shells, big wood beads, chunky styles and chokers! Again we saw a ton of neutral earth tones. What a range of costume jewelry! Just check out any magazine and you will see an abundance of
Miriam Haskell like beaded necklaces! All of this makes for a really fun season, don’t you think.
