Seasonal Jewelry Styling Tips
Living in beautiful Cape Cod allows us to enjoy the benefits of the changing seasons year-round. All four seasons come with their pros and cons, especially when it comes to owning jewelry. It’s important to tailor how you care for and style your jewelry for the season.
As May rolls in and we start dusting off our favorite summer jewelry pieces, we are also admittedly entering “Summer Jewelry Trends” into our Google search bar. With Memorial Day right around the corner, which marks the official start of summer, we put together a list of summer jewelry styling tips.
Lighter Styling
The summer weather calls for substituting out your heavier jewelry pieces, like chunky earrings and heavier chain necklaces, for lighter styles. Thinner jewelry complements sundress and flowy fashion, and also looks great with a fresh summer tan. We are also seeing a fun shift towards pops of vibrant color when it comes to jewelry styling. Women around the world are adding citrusy shades like green, pink, yellow, orange, and red, to their accessories, breathing life into the whole look.
Silver and Gold
As with last summer, mixing silver and gold styles is still on trend this year. Mixing gold and silver jewelry used to be a strict no-no in fashion, but over the past few years, this rule has dramatically changed.
Add depth and sophistication to your summer style by mixing your favorite pieces into one look. Ditch the overthinking and feel confident in knowing that you can style your metals however you want to!

Not Your Grandmother’s Pearls
Pearls are back and better than ever before! Pearls originally entered the jewelry universe many years ago as a sign of innocence and love. Countless designers, locally and nationally, have reimagined pearls and are introducing them to a younger audience.
Pearls are seasonless, timeless, and radiate a quiet elegance. There are a multitude of ways to wear pearls, and it’s hard to go wrong when it comes to styling them. Exude newness and class by adding some unique pearls to your jewelry collection!
An Ode to the Sea
One of the main reasons we all live in Cape Cod (and why hundreds of thousands of tourists visit each summer) is to be near the sea. Not only is it in style to wear simple and delicate jewelry, but it’s always in style to wear designs that remind you of home. Spend your afternoons by the bay with oyster, scallop, and whale pendant jewelry from a local designer.

Radiate Uniqueness Through Style
As we all know, trends come and go with the tides. It’s important to remember that your style is uniquely yours. You’ll never regret investing in timeless styles that you can wear all year around and pass down to your family members. Seasonal trends are fun and add newness to your wardrobe. Buy into the trends but don’t lose sight of your personal style.
