Do you consider yourself a "fashionable" woman? Friend, a sustainable lifestyle is completely compatible with trends, because as the saying goes… fashion always comes back! You probably already know that at Luz de Nehca we aren't big on following trends, but we do like to stay up to date. Jewelry trends are usually set by the collections of big brands, but do they really change that much? In this article, I would like to tell you what the trends are for this Spring/Summer 2021 and how to adapt them to your style. What is most popular this season are colors, classics, and personalized jewelry. Maybe it's because we've come from a very heavy year and we need to "think less" when choosing jewelry and feel pretty and special at the same time. What do you think? I would love for us to chat in the comments afterward.

Trendy jewelry this Spring-Summer 2021

Pearl jewelry

For a very, very long time, pearls have been a symbol of elegance and good taste. These are pieces of jewelry that have traveled throughout our history, accompanying actresses like Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's," but also royalty. You can combine them with that dress you love so much or with that blouse that looks so good on you. They are capable of transforming a look from casual to much more sophisticated and delicate with just a pair of earrings or a pearl ring. Wonderful!

Chains

The trend says "chains" and it doesn't distinguish between sizes. Great! By wearing any type of chain, whether finer or wider, you'll be able to say you're fashionable. This Spring-Summer is one of the trends that is most successful. Finer chains are the most classic, and you can accompany them with one or several overlapping pendants, conveying simplicity. They are perfect for layering with other fine chain pendants at different heights. Wider chains convey self-confidence, personality, and add a bolder touch to your outfits. They combine very well with simple dresses or oversized shirts, for example. They look much better on their own, without other necklaces or chains. At Luz de Nehca we are very simple, but also faithful lovers of chains. That is why you can see several different ones in our collections: the Cartier-style link chain, the "rolo" chain, the classic fine chain and a few more.

Personalization

Personalized jewelry is trending because it makes us feel unique. And, in the moment we are living in, I think that is essential. Having a piece of jewelry made to our taste and size is priceless. Besides, it's one of the most beautiful gifts! The pieces of jewelry that are usually personalized the most are earrings and pendants, although at Luz de Nehca any piece of jewelry is customizable and adaptable, even for "unconventional" sizes. We offer jewelry like the Footprint pendant, but we also create unique pieces for you and make repairs; you just have to send us an email!

Minimalist jewelry

These pieces always succeed. Why? Because of their versatility and simplicity. They can be fine chains like the ones we talked about earlier or single-piece earrings, for example. They also tend to be monochromatic and can be combined with almost anything you want to wear.

Minimalist jewelry adds a fresh touch to any look. They convey that peace and simplicity that we sometimes need or want to express. Either way, minimalist jewelry is always a success and a staple in our jewelry boxes.

Sustainable jewelry

Sustainability is in fashion. It is also gradually reaching the world of jewelry, and we love this. Finally! As a society, we are reaching that point where ethics and respect for the environment influence our purchases, including jewelry. To know if your jewelry is sustainable, you can first ask the brand. You will want to look at how those metals and gemstones were extracted, if there are guarantees that the workers were treated as they should have been, and if they have any certificates like Fairmined. At Luz de Nehca, we have been clear for about five years now that jewelry should be sustainable for the people involved in the process and for the environment. That is why we hold the Fairmined certificate and have been advocating for sustainable jewelry since the brand was born.

Colored jewelry

We love this trend. We deserve joy, color, and a little bit of light. Furthermore, they combine great with both formal outfits and more casual ones. We also won't deny that it lifts our spirits, hahaha. The colored jewelry that is most successful is… all of it! Rings, earrings, pendants, bracelets, and more. This Spring-Summer, color is in (and a lot). We love this trend and, if you follow our brand, you will know that we have entire collections full of color and precious stones. Colors convey whatever you want to convey at any moment; isn't that great?

Signet ring

The classic "signet" ring is now worn more than ever. Yes, the one that has been passed down from generation to generation until it reached you. In any case, if you weren't one of the lucky ones… this is the perfect moment for you to start the tradition! This style of ring is a basic that cannot be missing from any jewelry box. It is a piece that generally contains many sentiments and marks important moments in our lives. Furthermore, it is combinable for any type of occasion.

How to combine trends with our basic jewelry

Can you have your own style and be fashionable at the same time? Unequivocally yes. Fashions and trends are totally adaptable to everyone's personality and tastes. My secret is to combine more special pieces with basic pieces. Another trick that also helps is to combine "difficult" pieces of jewelry with white or black jewelry, like those from the Black & White collection. They serve as a base, like in the case of wardrobe essentials. I have loved sharing these trends with you and I will love continuing to share them.
