What are the hottest jewelry trends of 2012??
“Keep your silver jewelry in zip lock bags, air is what causes oxidation (tarnishing).”
Bib Necklace
The bib necklace is still here in a major way, and one of my favorite designs. I have featured my Runway necklace as a great example of this style. I've tied in my favorite elements of layering, ribbon tie, and bib style to make one amazing necklace. Hit several of the key trends for 2012 in one necklace!

The Collar Necklace
I just read ANOTHER article about how hot collar necklaces are right now! Although I do still love long, layered necklaces, the collar necklace is a nice refreshing change. It perfectly lays on your collar bone, and really highlights a long, beautiful neck. This necklace I am featuring has an amazing pop of AAA grade red coral, and a gorgeous bronze sparrow pendant.

Vintage Inspired Jewelry
Admit it, we've all been raiding grandma's jewelry box for all of her fabulous vintage cocktail jewelry. Adding a touch of vintage inspiration to your look is such a great way to make all that is old new again, and in such a fresh, hip way. I am featuring my layered necklace with vintage inspired brooch. I L-O-V-E this necklace, it has so many amazing elements, and is so eye catching.

Tangerine and Orange Fashion and Accessories
Tangerine and orange have been spotted all over the runways, and will be the hottest color for spring 2012. It's everywhere from fingernail polish to shoes to jewelry. If you are like me, and can't wear an entire outfit of orange (not many people can.. or should!), then adding some orange and tangerine accessories are the way to go! I am featuring orange jade chandelier earrings, a fun way to add a pop of the seasons hottest color to your new year wardrobe!

Bold Colors
Bold colors are everywhere for spring 2012 (as I mentioned above, orange being one of the very very hottest). Color blocking, and futuristic prints are popping up on runways. If you aren't ready to commit to an entire outfit full of crazy colors.. then start by adding one or two pieces, BRIGHT and BOLD pieces to your outfit!

Bangle Bracelets
Stacked bangle bracelets are a big trend again for 2012. Stacking several together is an even hotter look. Here I feature my bangle style wrapped cuff bracelet.

Tassel Jewelry
Tassel jewelry is really big this season, from necklaces to earrings. Here I feature the crystal tassel necklace. I have mixed beautiful crystals (also very on point for winter) for serious bling, and made them into a tassel style. Long necklaces also create slimmer silhouette. Who knew accessories could slenderize??
Leather Beaded Wrap Bracelets
I do believe Chan Luu started this craze, celebrities everywhere are spotted wearing these beauties! This is one of my favorite trends right now, it has such an organic luxe feel. Grab a Collier Lewis leather beaded wrap for a fraction of the cost of many other brands!

Layering
Layering with two or three individual strands is still popular in 2012. You can keep the necklaces shorter for a more casual look, or choose longer strands to dress up your style a bit. Layering delicate strands is one of my favorite looks. Get started now with this great rose quartz and sterling necklace.
Yellow Gold
Yellow and rose are the hot golds of the season! Timeless, and oh so chich, adding the warm toned gold to your wardrobe will update your look in a classic way! Yellow gold will never really go out of style, but right now it's hotter than ever!! I have included my long flower pendant necklace, it combines two great looks right now, yellow gold and long length!
Flower Pendant 32" Long Yellow Gold Necklace | Price: $0
This beautiful long (32") gold necklace has a fabulous flower pendant, attached to gray simulated pearls and gold filigree beads.

Extra Long Necklaces
Super long necklaces are versatile, you can wrap them around a few times for a layered look, or you can wear them as one long chain! I am featuring my turquoise necklace, which is 50" in length. A bonus? Long necklaces give the illusion of a long lean frame!
Long Layering Necklace in Turquoise 50" FREE SHIPPING | Price: $32
This beautiful long necklace is 50" in length, and can be worn as one chain, or wrapped around twice. Beautiful turquoise beads have been wire wr... (full description)
Feather Jewelry
Unless you've been under a rock, you know feathers are everywhere... in hair, on jewelry, clothes (the back's of birds everywhere), you name it! I love working with feathers, and adding some interesting elements along with them. I am featuring my "Fall Sunset Earrings". They are a beautiful mix of brown feathers with citrine stones. The citrine in these earrings add a bit of glamour to the awesome boho feathers. Everyone should own at least ONE piece of feather jewelry! It's such an affordable way to look oh so hip and stylish!
Cocktail Rings
Cocktail rings are so great, and so stylish. Of course a cocktail ring with bling is even better, especially when that bling of the Swarovski crystal variety, like the one I've featured from my shop! This ring has a really great vintage, estate jewelry feel. A large statement ring will make any outfit amazing. Another really hot trend I've seen many celebs sporting is wearing two cocktail rings on one hand. Try it out!

- i'd have to say my favorite trend is big, bold, statement rings. I happen to make some of my jewelry myself, and always try to copy the rings that I love. I LOVE double rings (rings that take up two fingers) and leaves. I like gold, and turqoise-- actually, I like stones in general!
