Have you seen those Instagram posts screaming “We’re OUTSIDE this summer”?
Well, you can't really blame them.
There’s something about summer that makes you want to be sun-soaked,carefree and ready for a little sparkle.
And at this moment, jewelry feels like more than just an accessory.
It becomes an extension of your mood.
You could be brunching on a terrace, catching a golden hour on the beach, vacationing with friends, or attending a garden wedding, and your jewelry has to feel like a paid actor.
Why Jewelry Hits Different in Summer
In the heat of summer, the best outfits are lighter, brighter, and often simpler. Which is exactly why jewelry plays such a key role.
It's how you elevate a white linen dress.
It’s how you turn a bikini into a look.
It's the reason your wrist looks just right as you sip a cocktail on a warm afternoon.
And when the heat rises, you want pieces that can keep up; no tarnishing, no fading, no fuss.
What’s Trending: Jewelry for Summer 2025
The mood for summer 2025 is bold, personal, and effortless. If you’re looking for inspiration, these are the top jewelry trends to try:
- Gold Jewelry for Summer: Gold is always in style. From sandy beaches to candlelit dinners, 14k gold and gold vermeil pieces are summer’s secret. They warm up every look, flatter your tone, and never go out of style.
- Waterproof Jewelry Essentials: Poolside or seaside, summer 2025 isn’t compromising style for function. Waterproof pieces like our thick hoop huggie earrings are making the trend.
- Colorful Gemstone Jewelry: If you want to go bold and playful, try these trending color palettes: turquoise, coral, and lime green.
- Chunky Jewelry for Summer: In summer, you find yourself shrugging in front of the mirror, wearing lighter clothes and saying, “Just one more button undone.” This is exactly when your accessories can do the heavy lifting. So make a statement with oversized rings, bangles, and layered chains.
- Minimalist & Layered Pieces: Summer brings a bright, breezy, and bubbly feeling. To capture that with your jewelry, pair minimalist pieces for a look that’s polished and relaxing.
Waterproof Summer Jewelry Essentials You Need
Grab these as you head for the poolside this summer:
- Waterproof gold-plated bracelets
- Layered waterproof necklaces
- Non-tarnish hoop earrings
- Ankle chains for the beach look
These pieces resist rust and tarnish, and also look incredibly stylish, which is perfect for your summer wardrobe.
Avoid rings when going to the pool or beach, especially when swimming. Sand can scratch the ring, and saltwater can corrode settings and loosen stones.
Cold water can also cause fingers to shrink, making it easier for rings to slip off.
How to Style Jewelry with Summer Outfits
The rule is simple: let your jewelry reflect your energy.
For floaty dresses, layered gold necklaces and delicate bangles go great together.
For structured sets or tailored linen, go bold with chunky rings or geometric earrings.
If you’re heading to the beach, waterproof bracelets and anklets are your best friends.
For Brunch plans? Stack your rings and let your hoops do the talking.
A summer wedding? Gemstone accents and statement earrings will look great with your outfit.
Summer Jewelry by Color Palette and Skin Tone
Every season, especially summer when the light hits differently, deserves jewelry that complements your skin tone.
Here’s how to determine your jewelry by skin tone:
- Warm-toned skin looks stunning in gold, coral, orange, and earthy greens.
- Cool undertones? Lean into silver, turquoise, soft blue, and pearl finishes.
- Neutral skin tones can wear almost anything, but rose gold, champagne tones, and muted metallics are always flattering.
And when it comes to the summer palette, think ocean blues, sun-washed pinks, sandy nudes, and bold, citrus-inspired hues.
Matching your jewelry to these tones adds cohesion to your overall vibe.
