What will the top fashion jewellery trends be in Summer 2009? What's hot and what's not in bracelet trends this summer?
This 10-point guide tells you what should you be looking out for if you're buying, designing or making fashion jewellery, from fair trade bracelets to silver bangles, this summer season.
1) The safari look is set to be the BIG story of the summer. We're talking tribal jewellery, and specifically bracelets that use seed beads, chunky beads and wood or coconut.
2) Hey, we can't ignore the fact there's a recession out there. With gold prices going through the roof, the more earthy metals like brass and copper are working their magic. Look out for brass, whether it's beaten, hammered or coiled. And if it's used together with those seed beads or coconut or wood, then you're in seventh heaven!
3) Cuff bracelets will remain hits of the summer. The bigger the better. And wooden cuffs with metal studs are one of the spring season hits that will just run and run.
4) Charm bracelets are as popular as ever. What's really hot this summer are earthy charms, from hammered or weathered copper or brass to natural seeds to leaf and twig motifs. This summer, it's all about the beauty of nature. And don't be afraid to stack your charm bracelets!
5) The whole fair trade vibe remains a big draw. There are some fantastic new up-and-coming designers out there creating fair trade bracelets and other fashion jewellery designs that combine style with ethics. So flaunt your fair trade bracelets this summer!
6) Summer is about colour! Don't be afraid to wear bold colours on your wrist - turquoise, pinks, yellow, red and blue look great in summer are set to dominate this season's bracelet trends.
7) Flowers and butterflies are summer's motifs, and you can't go wrong wearing them in your fashion jewellery. And they don't have to be delicate - big, chunky flowers on your bracelet, earrings or necklace are a winner.
Bangles are big. Fact. For a great look, why not trying mixing wooden, ethnic style bangles with a silver bangle? Mix-and-match will be one of the top bracelet trends this summer.
9) Big, chunky beads with an ethnic style strung onto elastic are a great look for this summer. Or try beads on memory wire, which always springs back into shape. Practical, easy, affordable and stylish - what could be better?
10) Finally, don't be afraid to mix and match your bracelets. This season, mixing a fair trade bracelet made of seed beads with a silver bangle or a studded cuff will leave you looking the part.
Updating your look for this summer is easy and needn't break the bank. Whether it's a fair trade bracelet or an over-sized cuff or the ever-popular charm bracelets that you're after, this season's bracelet trends offer all followers of fashion jewellery plenty of choice and variety.
