Trends for Fall/Winter 2009
We're crazy about fabulous jewelry, so this month we're showcasing some of our favorite trends. Plus, we've found some other amazing accessories you'll want to rock this season.
Glass
Diamonds may be a girl's best friend but this winter is all about glass beads. Add romance to your look with dark glass, as in this luxurious velvet and bead necklace from Yves Saint Laurent.
Gloves
Keep your hands toasty in a pair of knit gloves, made girly with shiny crystals, studs, and gathers. Get a fingerless pair and you can still don your most sensational cocktail ring!
Sparkly
Whether you're off to a holiday fête or meeting friends for tea, this disco ball-inspired wristlet will hold your essentials and add a festive dose of za-za-zing to your look.
House of Harlow
Channel your inner goddess with this new spin on a classic headband. Five strands of gold crystal beads are like jewelry for your hair.
Animals
From bears or butterflies to serpents or spiders, this season, rings, bracelets, and necklaces are going wild with animal themes. These koi fish earrings are so unexpected and fun.
Tiffany & Co.
No jewelry box is complete without a little something from Tiffany & Co. We love this sweet shoe charm!
Bib Necklace
Add color to an LBD or dress up your favorite jeans and T-shirt with the season's must-get style statement piece.
Simple
Ditch the extra dials, calculators, world clocks, and other gadgets and go for a clean, simple, classic look.
Hoop Earrings
Even the most savvy fashionistas swear by a simple ‘n’ chic ponytail paired with hoop earrings―a stylish combo that works for day or evening. Look for updated versions like these ebony wood hoops with mirror glass embellishment.
Colorful
Choose dark green malachite, deep purple amethyst, or mix it up with multi-colored tourmaline baubles to brighten up your fall and winter wardrobe.
