BLING OUT TRENDS
if you think diamonds are just for engagements, weddings and anniversaries, it’s time to think again. Fine fashionable diamond jewelry is a wonderful choice, and diamonds come in a variety of shapes, sizes, cuts and colors. But because diamonds are so often associated with the romance and symbolism of lives joined together forever, it can be hard to break free of the idea that diamonds are anything other than marriage gifts. But that’s no reason to remove such an absolutely gorgeous gemstone from option of gifts for others or yourself.
MAKE A STATEMENT you can make a fashion statement with diamonds by taking advantage of colors other than white, either alone or mixing. a ring, necklace or bracelet that mixes black and white diamonds creates a focal point. yellow diamonds, alone or paired with white, are both totally on trend and effortlessly classic.
STACK EM! stacking rings, layered necklaces, and bracelets have had a stronghold on the jewelry industry for the last couple of years. Mix-andmatch pieces to create your own look or choose one that has already been done for you.
MONOCHROME Monochromatic sparkle that is complementary to both fashion and beauty trends are aslo big, so invest in them.
COLOUR YOUR WORLD It probably doesn’t come as a surprise that colored gemstones in bridal are on the uptick— more brides want seemingly unique, highly customized options in their engagement rings, and colored gems are a variation of that.
TWO TONE natural brown and champagne color diamonds can make another color splash. singly or combined with other colors, jewelry with these diamonds create an earthy-yet-dazzling look. Brown diamonds are especially warm and beautiful when set in rose or white gold.
GO BLACK Black diamonds are back in a big way. off-set with white diamonds or white metal, the black diamond creates stark contrast for real interesting pieces. To maximise shimmer, opt for a set, dress rings or bold earrings encrusted with lots of smaller black diamonds as opposed to a single stone.
