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.

DIY: Dainty Wire Rings

I love dainty rings that wrap around the entire fingers and knuckles and go with just about anything! That's why I decided to take a trip to my local crafts store and pick up the tools I needed to stock up my ring collection. Keep on reading to find out how to make your own dainty wire rings.

Your going to want to start by picking up a pair of wire cutters, a nail polish bottle the same size as your finger, and wire, preferably 20 gauge wire. 

You can start by wrapping the wire in cool designs and using the wire cutter to cut off the excessive amount of wire from around your finger.

You can also begin by "measuring" out the amount of wire you need around the nail polish bottle and cutting it about a centimeter out from where the wire ends touch each other.

My favorite part is actually creating loops and words which is done by using your fingers or the wire cutter's pointy ends and moving the wire until it forms the shape you desire.

What I'm Loving: JLANI Jewels

I am currently loving and obsessed with JLANI Jewels and the pieces they sent me. JLANI Jewels is an amazing jewelry collection that has been worn by celebrities like Beyonce, Jay-Z, Rita Ora, Zoe Saldana, Dakota Fanning, and more. JLANI Jewels uses stainless steel which calls for little maintenance and a nice modern look. The fact that they use a recyclable metals for the jewelry is even better because the pieces are environmentally friendly. Keep on reading to check out the pieces.



 The pieces were sent to me in this cute little baggie with a sleek and chic JLANI card. Even though the little black bag isn't a piece, it was perfect to use for storing a small amount of jewelry while traveling.

Here you can see me wearing the two-tone multi link chain as a bracelet/ring duo, the clover leaf key as a statement necklace, and the mini cross ring. Since I love to mix gold and silver colored jewelry I had to wear all my pieces at once. Each piece fits perfectly into an edgy, girly, quirky, or even a glam look. 

The chain and mini cross ring look so simple, dainty, and elegant on my hand while still making a statement. The gold and silver contrast will pop against any skin tone and the draping of the chain across the hand is a flirty touch. The mini cross ring is so cute to me especially since it is dainty and one of my favorite symbols.

 I'm not usually a hoop earring girl primarily because hoops are usually heavy and irritate my ears. However, these hoops were light on my ears and didn't make my head look extremely small is comparison to the side. The ability to wear hoop earrings without my ears getting irritated was a super plus for me. The statement key necklace is great for dressing up a plain tee or adding to a chic blouse.

Be sure to check out JLANI Jewels on their website to check out more of their pieces that fit your specific look or style! Don't forget to also look for them on Instagram and Twitter.

Claire's Accessories Haul

My mom went shopping and brought me back the accessories above which are all from Claire's. As you can see I really love gold jewelry and owls. The first pair of owl earrings make such a statement and although they may look heavy, they are actually quite light. I personally cannot stand heavy earrings so I make sure to get the ones marked "sensitive solutions". The next two photos are actually multiple earrings which is a great deal! You can easily go from studs to dangly earrings in all different styles and colors. Lastly, I finally got a gold earcuff and I love it! It makes a gorgeous statement with my ear and the gold chains just hang so perfectly to me. I can't wait to start rocking my new accessories. Thanks Mom :)
