Everywhere you look these days, it’s all about statement jewelry.  Sculpted earrings and necklaces are perfect for everyday wear, and are bold enough to help you stand out. Sculptural hoops, dangles and more will draw attention and keep your outfit on point.

Large Bags

For awhile it seemed like bags were getting smaller and smaller. So much so that they couldn’t fit much more than lipstick and a credit card, but thankfully 2023 has seen large bags make a comeback.  In fact, the bigger the better this spring, meaning there is almost an endless amount of room to carry your personal belongings.

Something Silver

Gold, and rose gold, has been the popular choice for jewelry for several years now, but 2023 is seeing the return of silver. Several spring/summer runways featured chunky silver necklaces, earrings and bangles, and now the market is reflecting that. If you don’t want to go all silver don’t fret, mixing of metals is also extremely popular this season.

Wristlets

While large bags may be in, they aren’t always convenient. Sometimes you just need something bigger than a clutch, yet smaller than shoulder bag. It’s been several years since wristlets were in, but this season they are the happy medium between the overly large, and the overly small. These are a great option if you are looking to avoid the bulk, yet want to carry more than a couple of small items.

Flower Accessories

You’d be surprised how often floral designed accessories were popping up on the spring/summer 2023 runways. From flower necklaces, to belts, brooches and more, this is truly the prettiest accessory trend of the year, and will immediately help bring your outfit up to date.

Opera Length Gloves

Over the last few decades gloves have become an accessory only used during the fall and winter months, but this year they are making a come-back for spring and summer. Fanciful opera-length gloves made out of black mesh or lace are quickly becoming an eveningwear standard year-round. To add a bit more to it, you can choose a glove embellished with crystals. Gloves can help make any outfit a little more fanciful.

The Bucket Hat

Hats are back in for 2023, as was evident on the runways of Etro, Carolina Herrera and Alberta Ferretti. While everything from crochet swimmers to fancy bonnets made appearances, it was the bucket hat that was the most popular of them all. They are a great way to keep the sun out of your eyes, while keeping your head cool on hot days.
