You know what they say: accessories make or break an outfit—and if you’re anything like me, you believe that jewelry is an area worth investing in. This season, stock up with the best spring 2023 jewelry trends, according to the runways. Whether you’re still combatting cold-weather temperatures with women’s wrap coats and suede boots or you’re diving right into the warmer days ahead with a caftan dress, stylish jewelry will always be a good idea.
After combing through the best spring 2023 fashion trends, we ID’ed the top shiny, sparkly, all-around pretty pieces you need in your jewelry box this season. Read on to shop them all, below.
Arm Cuffs
Like the best spring 2023 shoe trends, there were some jewelry trends that caught us off guard (in the best kind of way). One such trend was arm cuffs—you know, the bicep-hugging bracelets that have everyone feeling like an Amazonian warrior, as seen on the arms of models at Tory Burch, Bevza, and Kim Shui. Of course, we also saw traditional cuffs that would make Wonder Woman proud, à la Michael Kors.
Chandelier Earrings
Chandelier earrings made a triumphant return for 2023, and we’re not one bit upset about it. Whether they fall among the more complex styles, like those at Markarian and Ulla Johnson, or they emulate a sleeker drop, go ahead and let your ears do the talking this spring.
Chunky Baubles
Bigger is better this spring season, and we’re on board. With supersized earrings at Tom Ford and chunky lucite bangles at LaQuan Smith, we foresee these bulky danglers being the party picks for when you’re feeling undeniably—and unapologetically—bold.
Thick Chains
Dainty jewelry? Never heard of it. In the same vein as capital-C chunky jewelry, larger, statement-making chains made multiple appearances on the runway at Marine Serre, Proenza Schouler, and Collina Strada, to name just a few. If you’re looking for an effortlessly cool way to zhuzh up your looks for spring (and now, for that matter), this is one of our tried-and-true ways to do so.
