Fall 2021 Jewelry Trend No. 1: Bright Enamel

Fun, bright enamel pieces are claiming its place in your jewelry box for fall. Whether it be a statement ring or a classic huggie, a pop of color is a welcome layer to your everyday jewelry. Brands like Alison Lou and July Child have perfected the art of a playful, colored accessory, and it doesn’t hurt that this trend is one of Dua Lipa’s faves.

Fall 2021 Jewelry Trend No. 2: Lockets

Lockets are the ideal personal piece. Whether in the traditional pendant style or as a signet ring, the locket offers an intimate touch to everyday jewelry. Wear this trend on its own or layered with gold chains and stacking rings.

Fall 2021 Jewelry Trend No. 3: Lucite

This whimsical trend has staked its claim across social media with an array of bauble rings, resin hoops, and translucent bangles. Turn to designers like Alexis Bittar and Corey Moranis to nail this trend.

Fall 2021 Jewelry Trend No. 4: Zodiac

An ode to astrology is a subtle, cheeky way to customize your jewelry pieces. Wear your zodiac sign on a simple stud or more boldly with a pendant necklace.

Fall 2021 Jewelry Trend No. 5: Playful Beading

Kitschy beaded pieces have been popping up on all our style icons lately including Pete Davidson, Justin Bieber, and Olivia Rodrigo. (The style has also fueled a new era of indie designers, too.) Whether it be a hodgepodge of multicolored beads or a quirky collection of charms, these fun pieces can liven up any look. Pair it with more simple jewels or wear alone as a statement piece.
