Are you in the mood for a little leather? Or maybe you are in the mood for something more primal? If that doesn’t do it for you, you can always channel your hipster/bohemian side. All these looks and more are in step with what is going on with jewelry’s top trends for 2012.
Leather-You see it all over. From pants to dresses, leather is everywhere (think Victoria Beckham and Angelina Jolie). In the trend for this season, leather is showing up all over in jewelry. Leather bracelets are huge. Whether it is in a wrap form or a cuff form or better yet layered, they are on the wrists of everyone from Jessica Alba to Jessica Biel.

Tribal-This trend is all over the runways for Spring 2012. From Michael Kors to Donna Karan, you are seeing it in their animal inspired prints as well as gladiator style shoes. This is also showing up in accessories, particularly in bracelets that are colorful wood and can be multi-layered. (link here to one of Cheryl’s products)
Tassels-This trend seems to piggy back with the tribal look. The jewelery is very earthy, has a bohemian feel to it and can be mixed with wood or metal bases. Although this can be worn all alone, layering this look with seed beads or colorful strands really helps add to this current look.
Pearls-This is definitely not the pearl that your grandmother is wearing. This seasons look is all about colored pearls with a chunky silver cross or circle design attached to it. The pearl necklace is being worn long and it too can be layered with other necklaces of different lengths. (Link to one of Cheryls items)
This years jewelery trends have lots of different options and styles, but the main thing to keep in mind is make sure your look chic and hip. In other words, polished but don’t look like you are trying to hard.
