Trend Alert: Spring 2014 Jewelry

Spring 2014 Jewelry Trends by lyndseycamille featuring swim jewelry

Spring jewelry trends are all about bright colors, golds, big gems, and quirky twists. Bright colors are perfect to make everyone, including yourself, smile and spice up an outfit. Gold colored jewelry gives a soft touch to any outfit while big gems make an outfit sparkle. My personal favorite spring jewelry trend is the quirky twists. Spring jewelry is introducing bows, cat shaped watches, and lots of other fun shaped jewelry pieces.

Top 4 Accessorizing Tips

Mixed Jewelry by lyndseycamille featuring a cross ring

Mixed metals, stacked bracelets, chunky necklaces and statement rings have taken the accessory world by storm. jewelry can make or break an outfit, too many pieces can make your outfit look like a costume and just enough can give you that extra sparkle. There are so many ways to accessorize and amp up your look and below are my top 5 tips on accessorizing.

1. Mix Metals! Don't be afraid to mix gold, silver, and copper accessories together. The contrast is like putting together different prints in an outfits but with jewelry. Just remember to keep a balance on the amount of each metal.
2. Top or Bottom?! I tend to stick to a top or bottom rule with accessorizing. You never want to be weighed down in accessories so pick whether you want more rings and bracelets on the bottom or go for earrings and necklaces up top.
3. Go for the Quirks! Jewelry ranges from big hoop diamond earrings to mustache shaped necklaces. Don't be afraid to try out the huge statement rings, food shaped necklaces, and stacks of bracelets because they are what help make your outfit more detailed and interesting.
4. Revision and Moderation! You never want to be the girl with the loud clashing bracelets on, so be sure to walk around your room and look in the mirror to see just how many accessories your wearing. If you think it's too much, just take one or two pieces off and you'll be ready to go.

Must Haves by lyndseycamille featuring high waisted shorts

Wrangler high waisted shorts, $30
Jeffrey Campbell high heels, €220

I have been seeing all these edgy looks like spikey bracelets and high waisted shorts everywhere! I am really into Jeffrey Campbell shoes because of their unique shape and look, I can't wait to be able to actually own a pair! High waisted shorts are another one of my faves especially since you can make them at home and even add studs. The spiked bracelet looks great as arm candy and is a great visual acccessory. The make-up pallete has gorgeous colors which will look great for the summertime.
