What's Hot for Spring 2008

Mutiple Bracelets and Charmed Jewelry are Still Hot

Load your arms with leather or cloth bracelets Spring 2008. Charmed jewelry is still a safe bet for up to the minute jewelry accessories.


Here is my recap of two very current fashion trends:

  • thin leather or fabric bracelets worn in multiples. They do not all have to be the same color. In fact, with a solid color dress or top it makes more of an impact if you use different coordinating colors. If staying in the same color family, vary the type of leather or fabrics used. For example, mix patent leather with suede or braided cotton with buckled linen.

Fabric and leather bracelets are very work place friendly as they will not make a jangling noise when you move your arm or hand. No one wants to be in the cubicle next door to the wind chime woman. Additionally, it is not perceived as being very professional if your co-workers can hear you coming from the elevator due to your musical accessories. Men, in particular, seem to really loathe this.

As Marie Claire states in their March 2008 issue, "if you can still raise your arm, you're not wearing enough".

  • Charmed jewelry is still a very safe bet for Spring/Summer 2008. This type of jewelry is a perpetual favorite. Even if it goes slightly out of fashion for a few seasons, charmed jewelry, like many fashion trends will cycle back.

Charmed necklaces look very stylish with the day maxi-dresses that are being pushed for the Spring/Summer 2008 season. It is very easy and pretty inexpensive to make one that is specifically tailored to your particular charm/talisman preference.

Keep on eye on on my jewelry making articles as this is an easy beginner project that will be published in time to make one for Mother's Day.
