How to Select Suitable Summer Jewelry

It’s time to put away weighty, burdensome pieces of jewelry and select jewelry for summer. Here are some ideas for summer jewelry that will feel as good as it looks.

When the temperatures and dampness rise and coats and sweaters are retired to the back of the closet and replaced with tops and dresses, it can feel burdensome to wear heavy jewelry. When summer arrives, it’s time to go for a lighter look in jewelry specially when wearing tops and dresses. A heavy necklace can look gauche when worn with light breezy summer clothing and the metal can heat up right along with the climate, making it itchy against your skin. Here’s how to choose summer jewelry that’ll look and feel good when the temperatures rise.

Choose summer jewelry: Choose jewelry made from natural materials Summer is the perfect time to take a break from metal and go with natural materials. Wood is always a popular summer jewelry material. Pile on a few wooden bangles to show off a lightly brown arm or wear a simple wooden pendant on leather cord for an practical, natural look. A popular new jewelry material for warm weather is bamboo. Beads made of bamboo are hollow and very light to the touch making them a perfect choice for warmer temperatures. The beauty of bamboo jewelry is that each piece is a work of art with its own unique ring structure and design. Plus, bamboo is considered to be a symbol of strength and of good luck. It’s also an eco-friendly jewelry material you can feel good about wearing. Don’t worry if the wood and bamboo pieces you wear are a little rough around the edges, it only adds to their charm.

Choose summer jewelry: Be charming Charms are a warm jewelry trend and an easy look for almost anyone to wear. Carefully selected charms and small pendants are a way to show the world who you are and what’s important to you. Charms are available in a range of materials and themes ranging from symbols to carved words and figurative images. Although you can burden a bracelet with charms or wear multiple charms on a necklace, keep it simple when wearing light, sheer clothing. Try wearing a small metal charm on a thin metal chain with swim or beach wear. For evening, coat them on for a more dramatic look. They’re a great way to express yourself.

Choose summer jewelry: Natural stones

There’s something about wearing natural stone jewelry that feels good for summer. All natural stones such as turquoise and coral are always a accepted choice and look stunning paired with cool, cotton tops and summer shorts.
