What to Shop from the Etsy Spring 2018 Jewelry Trend Guide
While you may know Etsy as an online marketplace for customizable gifts and engagement rings, it also just so happens to be a treasure trove for the latest fashion inspo (yes, really!). If you’re intent on uncovering unique, one-of-a-kind pieces hand-crafted by talented artisans, then you’ve come to the right place. Etsy’s resident trend expert Dayna Isom Johnson predicts these next four jewelry categories — based upon top searches and what’s currently hot among buyers and sellers — are on the cusp of blowing up.
Mountain Jewelry
The hills are alive! Embrace the great outdoors with Little Paper Crane’s best-selling Copper Mountain Peak Ring ($35).
Gear up for your next adventure with this elegant Everli Gold Mountain Necklace ($85), a subtle ode to the undulating ridges and valleys that you call home.
You can count on rocking this hand-stamped Peach Tree Lane Brass Mountain Sunrise ($21) from sunup to sundown.
Tutti Frutti
These hand-painted Boo and Boo Factory Gold Tassel Earrings ($32) — think of it as wearable art for your ears — are the ish. Go bananas by styling ’em with a white jumpsuit and a retro jelly basket bag.
Picnic-approved, summer-ready, these fresh ‘n’ fruity Watermelon Perler Bead Earrings ($10) by Adults Are Kids Too were made for the ‘Gram.
Get ready to add a punch to your lewk with a set of Dzy Dzy Designs’ kitschy Cherry Earrings ($25). These bad boys would look berry cute styled alongside a flouncy summer blouse or LWD.
Lucite
Long live lucite is right. We’re loving the minimalist look of this Jill Makes Clear Acrylic and Brass Statement Necklace ($36), especially when teamed with a silky cami and pantsuit for the boardroom.
“Look, ma, no hands!” Day or night, work or play, these Liz Lau Studio Clear Handy Studs ($20) will be a match for your offbeat style sensibilities. Add a tuxedo blazer, maybe?
Ah, we can see clearly now. Swap out your ubiquitous hoops for a pair of Kertis Translucent Lucite Earrings ($35). Expect the milky quartz beads to make a grand entrance with a Grecian-inspired maxi in tow for upcoming summer nuptials.
Brooches
Spring 2018 marks the return of brooches, but here’s the kicker: Modern interpretations (and vintage-inspired heirlooms) rule the land. Channel the tropics with an exotic Green Palm Leaf Brooch ($27) by LAK LAK Paris that would look hella cute fastened to the lapel of a sleeveless blazer or canvas tote.
Use this Sketch Inc Geometric Neon Origami Brooch ($14) to customize a denim jacket (or vest) for a mood-enhancing accoutrement.
Fasten this extra AF Sailor et Irma Metallic Evil Eye Brooch ($56) to the collar of a crisp button-down for a snazzy update. Wink.
