When it comes down to it, nothing instantly elevates a look more than by adding jewellery into the mix. We often treat necklaces and earrings like an afterthought, but after paying close attention to the jewellery trends of recent runways, we’re changing the way we look at these pieces.
Just like our favourite shoes and handbags, jewellery trends come and go every season, and it’s about time we start treating them like the true fashion staples they are. This year, put the dainty stuff on hold and make room in your wardrobe for colourful resin pieces, bold gold links, large-and-in-charge earrings, and more. Basically any playful, non-conventional bling that does all the talking for your outfit is what we’re talking about! More is more for 2019, and we’re here for it.
To help you give your wardrobe the ultimate update, scroll through the seven jewellery trends that are currently dominating.
Crystal Drip
Channel your inner Ariana Grande in true 7 Rings-style with sparkling dripping crystal jewels. In the pink-hued music video, the singer was seen wearing jewelled earrings and we’re obsessed. Cueing nostalgic party vibes, this trend is all about looking and feeling extra.

Resin
When it comes to jewellery, plastic is fantastic. The iconic ‘80s jewellery trend returns making resin earrings the cool girl accessory of the year. Not only is this trend super affordable (and easy to DIY), but it’s also available in a variety of colours and styles like hoops, sculptural, and drop-down links.

‘80s Hearts
If traditional jewels aren’t your thing, how about showing some love (literally) with bold heart-shaped jewellery. Once again, paying homage to the ‘80s fashion, we’re coveting this trend as this year’s most fun one yet.
#SDPick: Swarovski Lucky Goddess Heart Motif Ring, $139
Seashells
As we approach warmer and sunnier days, brace yourself for the unexpected return of the seashell jewel trend. In case you missed out on the infamous ‘90s coveted seashell braided anklet, this year might be your chance to shoot your shot. Only this time around, this trend is more refined and prettier than ever. If you’re having a hard time reimagining the trend take a look at Anna Sui and Altuzarra for some pointers.
#SDPick: BaubleBar Caicos Statement Necklace, $59
Gold Links
When we think of bold gold chains, we often think of necklaces. But this year, with the trend rapidly evolving, expect to see drop-down link earrings, bracelets, and rings. The best thing about gold links is that you can never go wrong with them — they go with practically everything!
#SDPick: Mejuri Bold Chain Ring, $215
Modern Pearls
They say pearls never go out of style, but believe us when we say these aren’t your grandmother’s pearls. Returning to the spotlight with a different rep, expect to see pearls everywhere from earrings, necklaces, bracelets to even brooches and barrettes. For inspiration take a look at Chanel and Oscar de la Renta.
#SDPick: Anthropologie Katherine Pearl Hoop Earrings, $64
Spare Change
If you’re a fan of layering your necklaces and bracelets, do it the right way with coin embellished jewellery. We love how it instantly adds dimension for a desired effortless look. Once associated with industrial boho style, we’re now seeing spare change on dainty and bold statement rings, bracelets, and necklaces.
