Fashion Jewelry Trends for Spring 2008; 5 ways to make your jewelry "pop"

Author: Julia White

The Spring 2008 fashion jewelry trends are all about "pop". Wondering what to wear with your trendy neon shirtdress or bold black and white safari print skirt? Don't be afraid to continue the trend with a pop of color and style in your jewelry. The following are the top five ways to pop up your style this season.
#1 Compliment Your Color Palette: Bright colors are in this Spring. From fluorescent yellow to neon green, Spring 2008 fashion has put a sophisticated twist on the colors made popular in the 80's. But, don't break out your old lace gloves and rubber bracelets just yet. The modern "Material Girl" knows this Spring's fashion jewelry trends are all about complimenting the outfit not overpowering it.
#2 Know When Less Color Is More: When wearing a solid bright color, pick jewelry in more minimal colors. For example, wear a soft orange colored pair of earrings with your neon orange dress. Gold and silver tones are also great to do this. Add a pop of style with the size of the jewelry pieces you choose. Add a chunky bracelet, a large fleur-de-lis necklace, or big hoopearrings.
#3 Pop Not Peacock: Multicolored prints are also in this year. It is not necessary to represent every color of your outfit in the jewelry you wear. Instead, choose jewelry that pulls out one color from the print. It is recommended that you pick a color that is less prevalent. This technique is a subtle way to draw the eye to both your outfit and your accessories.
#4 The Little Black Dress With A Kick: Black and white is considered the "new black" this season. Don't make a mistake and think that you can only wear black and white accessories. After all, you don't want to look like you stepped out of an old black and white movie. Add a pop to your look with brightly colored accessories. It's amazing how a thick red bangle, a yellow choker, or a bright blue (yes, I said blue) pair of earrings can bring depth to a monochrome outfit. The trick is to pick one bright color and wear it sparingly. This fashion jewelry trend is fun and glamorous.
#5 Don't Go Overboard: It is possible that you may find a great chunky jewelry set with a necklace, earrings, ring and bracelet. Although you may love all four pieces, try not to wear them all at once. Instead, pick one or two (depending on the size) jewelry pieces that will bring attention to your or your outfit's best feature. If you are wearing a sleeveless halterdress, stack on the bracelets or a ring. Want to add emphasis to your neckline? Put on a necklace. Mixing and matching pieces is fine. Just make sure you don't go overboard with the same size, color, or style. Wearing too much pop can turn you from a fashion jewelry trend setting diva, to grandma with each extra item you put on.

Remember, the goal isto compliment your new Spring look, not distract from it.
