Fashion Spotlight


Fashion Spotlight features jewelry trends at the current leading edge of fashion. This page will spotlight vintage jewelry that compliments the current look and will change as the trends do.

Spring/Summer 2009 - Dominating the jewelry scene....two themes: chunky AND colorful! All colors, lots of colors, combinations of colors! Natural stones and materials are still popular along with colorful big beads in multi-strands or layered short and long lengths. Turquoise remains strong as are colorful agates and semiprecious stones . Look for a variety of chunky, irregular, interesting stones. Layered long necklaces and wide bracelets with bold color or metallics are the important statement in this season's fashion jewelry. .
Look for Art Deco rhinestone bracelets for evenings, colorful glitzy rhinestones and fun chunkey plastic for day wear. 1960's color combo's are hot, including pink with orange or aqua with blue and green.
Pendants continue to be hot! Interesting and bold designs in natural organic materials or colorful metals and plastics, worn on chains or cords, reflect individual style. Flashy cocktail rings and big earrings remain a fashion staple as we move through 2009.
