How to Style Summer Jewelry Trends

Title:
Get set for sunshine with pieces that radiate energy and joy. Summertime is all about self-assured styling and understanding the three seasonal color palettes – soft, cool, and light – to navigate summer jewelry trends with confidence. From building a soft summer capsule wardrobe to finding the shades that suit you, our guide is here to help you shine.
Soft Summer Jewelry Colors
This summer color palette is characterized by delicate, blue-based tones echoing a calm breeze on a warm evening. Understated yet elegant, rose pink is a signature soft summer jewelry color, alongside lilac, dusty blue, and sage green. Metals with a silver, rose gold, or antique gold finish that emit a subtle sheen all perfectly complement these shades.

Styling Soft Summer Tones

The secret to creating an effective jewelry capsule wardrobe in soft summer hues is to either focus on a single shade or seek cohesive color blends. Embrace the pale pink summer jewelry trend by teaming our signature Swan bracelet with a Cosmopolitan watch adorned with rose gold finish details, or keep it simple with the round cut white crystals in our dazzling Una Angelic set.
Cool Summer Jewelry Colors
A refreshing choice, the cool summer palette features more saturated hues alongside colors found in nature. Also known as true summer, jewelry colors found in this palette include lavender, navy blue, rosy red, and berry pink. When it comes to metals, stick to settings with a silver, platinum, or white gold finish to deliver a subtle shimmer. 

Styling Cool Summer Tones

The cool or true summer palette invites experimentation. Play with Gema’s pink and red tonal hoop earrings or pair a navy and silver finish Idyllia pendant with a minimal Mesmera bracelet. For a bolder take on seasonal style, make a statement with an Idyllia strawberry pendant, charm or cocktail ring. These distinctive pieces are dipped in resin to produce an irresistible glow.
Light Summer Jewelry Colors
The quintessential light summer capsule wardrobe will feel airy and bright, even in a heatwave. The palette is defined by ethereal shades. Pale pink, cornflower blue, mint green, and buttercream yellow shine in gentle, low contrast combinations, especially when set in metals with a sophisticated, silver finish, while soft white captures the light, illuminating summer looks.

Styling Light Summer Tones

Pastel colors and refined silhouettes effortlessly elevate a light summer capsule wardrobe. Styling choices should be subtle but can still reflect your individuality; add character to classic designs like our Matrix Tennis bracelet with exquisitely crafted Swarovski Charms or layer pink and clear crystal necklaces to reflect the summer light.
Get Creative with Summer Colors
Whether you’re exploring your preferred palette for the first time or feel ready to build a summer capsule wardrobe, the most important rule to follow this season is to let creativity reign. Summer jewelry trends and colors can provide inspiration, but how you choose to style each piece is an exercise in self-expression. Choose designs that are rooted in craftsmanship and superlative savoir-faire to ensure you can wear them to light up your looks for seasons to come.

Frequently asked questions

Summer Color Palettes FAQs

What is a light summer color palette​?

A light summer color palette is defined by soft pastels and cool tones. Colors found in this palette include pale pink, mint green, cornflower blue, and buttercream yellow. Whether styled solo or gently blended, light summer shades shine brightest when combined with silver, platinum, and white gold.

How should I accessorize with jewelry this summer​?

This summer, accessorize your looks with joyful jewelry bursting with energy. Get creative with candy colors, juicy fruit motifs, and charms packed with personality. Designed to supercharge your favorite summer styles, playful pieces and rivers of full cut crystals will radiate confidence come rain or shine.

What is a true summer color palette​?

If you are considered a true summer, this means you suit serene, muted tones of purple, red, and blue. Rather than featuring vivid hues, the true summer color palette favors medium intensity shades like lavender, raspberry, and periwinkle blue as well as colors found in nature during the sunshine season.

What is a soft summer color palette​?

Characterized by gray and blue-based undertones, the soft summer palette is known for its cool shades of pink, purple, blue, and green. Any brightness or warmth should be avoided, including yellow gold, but dusty rose, lilac, sage green, and powder blue all typically complement soft summers.

Are true summer and cool summer the same?

When researching color palettes, you may find that the terms true summer and cool summer are used interchangeably. While they have many similarities and are almost identical, a true summer can usually wear more saturated shades than those who are better suited to cool summer shades. 

Is red a summer color?

Red is a popular summer color thanks to its inherent vibrancy and the stunning contrasts it creates when teamed with yellow, green or purple. Also seen in seasonal fruits like strawberries and cherries, shades of red can be more versatile when they have cool, pink undertones.

Is navy a summer color?

While traditionally associated with the colder months, navy can be a striking summer color especially for those who suit the cool summer palette. A softer alternative to black and a sophisticated choice to pair with clear crystals, navy also complements true summer shades like berry and lavender.
