4 Jewelry Trends to Watch for in Fall/Winter 2016-17

Hello and welcome to my first blog in October. Want to know what's in jewelry wise whether for you or for gifts? It's good to be in the Know. I have done the research so you don't have to, to keep up with latest trends from off the runways. 

First, I need to mention chokers. The 90's are back in many ways Fashion, and so are chokers in all widths, especially ultra-feminine chokers. Chokers can be layered with longer necklaces too, since the layered look has translated from the summer trends and continues to be a main style. So whether you wear a choker alone or layer it, sing Pearl Jam and take a trip down memory lane, recalling what you were doing in the 90's.  (or maybe not!)

Second, Earth Elements are super big. We are talking Geodes and large chunky stones, as well as raw, unfinished stones for that added bit of color. Wear as a statement piece as shown here or in large groupings or multi stones... the rawer the better. 

Girls with Pearls are all the rage. Earrings, necklaces, you name it, pearls are a thing. Pearls have always finished off a look, selling elegant maturity and fueling our nostalgia for the less frenetic time of the 1950's. But when it comes to what's trending in the 21st century,  images of women in poodle skirts and housewives in heels and pearls strands are thrown to the wind. What lands is a hip, chic look that all ages can embrace.

The fourth trend to share is….big rings. One or layered, the bigger the ring the better. So glad I have some new rings on hand to show you (no pun intended) and hope this trend continues because who doesn’t love a great ring?

These trends and more can be seen on my website, www.gillianhurrie.com. Be sure to look on the New Tab to see the most recent pieces added.


Namaste and talk soon,
