There’s no quicker way to give your wardrobe a summery spruce up than with a handful of colorful jewelry pieces. Below, Vogue Arabia takes you through all the different types of jewelry worth checking out for lazy days by the pool and evenings at the beach.
Flower power
Nothing says ‘summer’ quite like cheery florals. Why not add some blooms to your stash via La Double J’s confetti hoop earrings, or Simone Rocha’s daisy-detailed ear grazers? Keeping with the theme of nature, you can also add Yvonne Leon’s palm-tree pendant to your list of must-haves for the season.
Under the sea
In case you missed the memos, 2023 is all about the mermaid life. Channel your inner Ariel with Sydney Evan’s conch shell-detailed anklet in white and gold, or add a string of gilded starfish to your wrist via Kate Spade. Hoping to glisten like a sea creature in the sun? Deck yourself out in Benedetta Bruzziches’s crystal-studded bodychain to make sure all eyes are on you.
Bead it up
Colorful beads are always a win if you’re looking to add a more playful, boho vibe to your look this summer. Look to Roxanne Assoulin’s perfectly curated bracelet stacks for some immediate drama, or pair your favorite beachside dress with Oscar de la Renta’s pop pink tasseled earrings. Marie Lichtenberg’s deep blue layered necklace, and Roxanne First’s ‘Be Cool’ number deserve a shoutout as well.
Molten gold
Can’t get enough of the beauty of the setting sun against a calm sea? Add the same glistening charm to your beachside look with intense metallics. We love ByMystique Fine Jewelry’s sunburst eye medallion bracelet, along with Fernando Jorge’s artfully sculpted Flame earrings. For your next sundowner, however, all you need is Paco Rabanne’s ombré chainmail earrings, which beautifully transition from silver to fiery red.
Rainbow hues
When you can’t pick a color, it may just be time to wear them all. Be your own rainbow in the sun this summer with a not-so-basic rainbow tennis bracelet from Amina Muaddi, or indulge in a hand panja dotted with colorful crystals from Damas. If statement earrings are more your thing, you can’t miss out on Crystal Haze Jewelry’s multi-hued Copacabana swingers.
Baroque pearls
We couldn’t possibly close a summer jewelry edit without a look at the season’s all-time favorite staple: baroque earrings. Look to Cult Gaia’s pearl-studded hoops for summer celebrations, or go subtle in Missoma’s mismatched pearl danglers. You can always give the elegant gemstone a cheeky upgrade by mixing it up with some vibrant beads — cue Charms Company’s pop pink anklet, perfect for your next beach run.
