Jewelry Trends: What's IN and What's OUT!

Jewelry is always a great way to make your outfit feel more personal and interesting. And I thought it'd be fun to look at the jewelry trends that are happening right now and going into 2025 and some new trends that are in, some trends that are just a little bit out or considered a little bit dated. Now, if you're like me, I just like to go with what feels good and what I like on myself, but I always love new ideas. So I've got some new ideas in here for you. And I wanna let you know about a trend that is coming back. It's starting to come back and you may or may not be ready for it. I don't think I'm ready for it, to be honest. I will save that for the end of this video and you'll have to let me know what you think. Okay, I'm gonna have to hold my microphone like this because I just tried recording this and it was like, whoop. I was exposing myself to the world. So 2024 was the year of quiet luxury and we've just really moved away from loud logos and loud luxury. And along with that are the earrings and the necklaces with the logo, the Louis Vuitton earrings, the Chanel C's on the earrings. It's just kind of, it's not really in style. Now, if you have these pieces, I mean, my goodness, please still wear those because I know they were expensive. And plus, you know, if you love them, who cares? But it's just not a trend right now. The jewelry trends are much more about individual, unique ensembles that represent your own creativity rather than wearing someone else's logo. We are seeing a lot more statement pieces become a big trend for 2025. Like statement necklaces, statement chunky necklaces with a big pendant or statement earrings, almost always in a gold or a silver or something that looks very natural. We're not talking really about the plastic necklaces that were on trend about 10 years ago, but these are all like gold and silver and pearls. And then with these items, like with these chunky necklaces, we are seeing a lot of layering. So let's talk about layering for a minute. So layering before, it used to be you would want everything perfectly spaced. One right here and one right here and one right here. No, now the trend for 2025 are just layered like you just threw on your favorite necklaces and went out the door. And so maybe you have a big chunky one and then you have a longer initial necklace and then you have a herringbone chain and some of them are the same length. They're not necessarily all spaced out. So this is the trend of the layered necklace at the moment. I actually really love this. And so today, I don't normally layer this many necklaces, but I thought it'd be fun to do for this video. I have three different necklaces on and I normally would not wear all three of these together. I'd probably wear two at a time, but I'm like, you know what, we're doing a jewelry video, why not? Let's try something out. But you can really just get all of your necklaces and pile them on in any which way you want and that is what is on trend. I do like this kind of carefree way of putting on jewelry and it doesn't feel so stringent, like everything needs to be a certain length. I also love this because it inspires a lot more creativity. Like you get those necklaces that you haven't worn in a while, pair them with some new necklaces, you make a new ensemble. So I think this is gonna be a really fun one to play around with. A jewelry trend that is very, very in right now and I just think it's gonna be so big in 2025. I mean, it's already pretty big, but it's the vintage inspired jewelry. So jewelry that looks a little bit like it would be found in a vintage store, but it's brand new. We really were wearing the classic hoop for the longest time and it's still very classic. I love my hoops, but I do see us moving to switching out some of those days we would have worn the hoops, maybe wearing some of these interesting, vintage inspired earrings and rings and necklaces. I love this actually. I love this trend and I love this look. So this is one that I'm very much into. All of the jewelry that I'm wearing today is from Mejuri. I love Mejuri for classic, timeless, high quality pieces that you can really wear every day and mix and match and are just so lightweight and easy to pair with all of your outfits. So I wanna show you some new pieces I have from Mejuri. I am obsessed with these geometric hoops. They are lightweight and secure and go with everything I own. Mejuri has the best selection of rings and here I have on the duo ring and the Charlotte ring, which can be stacked or worn by themselves. All the rings I have from Mejuri are comfortable enough that you can wear them every day and forget you even have them on. These tube earrings are an updated twist on the classic hoop and they work really well if you're wanting to mix metals. Mejuri has a really great selection of necklaces, which can easily be worn alone or stacked with your other jewelry. These are easy enough to wear every day and forget that you even have them on. I love Mejuri's bracelet collection. They're all super lightweight and easy to wear and they can be worn by themselves or stacked with each other. All of Mejuri's pieces are responsibly sourced and made of premium materials like 14 karat gold, white gold, sterling silver. Make sure to check out Mejuri's Black Friday sale, which is their biggest sale of the year, where you can get 25% off orders of $150 or more. I will leave links below to my Mejuri pieces in the description box below and let's continue. In 2024 and going into 2025, we are gonna see a lot more of these daintier, a little bit vintage inspired watches. Think like the ladylike watch, slim watches. I think for a long time, we were really focused on these large, more masculine looking watches and I still have some watches like this and I love them. I think actually I like the more masculine looking ones better than the dainty ladylike ones, but those ladylike ones are the ones that you're gonna really start seeing and that's kind of what's more on trend for 2025. Rose gold was so huge several, several years ago. What was that, like 2015 or 18 or something? It is just, it's kind of a dated look. It is a not, it turned out to be not a classic look. Rose gold was kind of a trend and now it does look dated. What is very classic is gold and silver, white gold. The rose gold has been looking a little bit dated for a while. Now one thing that is very in that I think is really cool is pearl jewelry, but not just your traditional classic pearl necklace. We're talking about pearls mixed with gemstones, mixed with gold and silver and just lots of different interesting and creative ways that these jewelry designers have used pearls in jewelry. Baroque pearls, the large pearls, the freshwater pearls. There are just a lot of really unique designs with pearls and this trend just keeps getting bigger and bigger and plus I think it's very classic looking as well since you are using pearls and pearls are very classic. So I really love this one and I'm just loving all the concoctions that I'm seeing come out. One jewelry look that we have seen, it's still out, it's been out for a while, but the very matchy matchy jewelry. So if you have like red earrings and a red necklace and red bracelets, all of them together, it just, the whole matchy matchy jewelry is not very in and it's just gotten even more out the further we've gone into 2024. What is very in right now is gold and silver and pearls and diamonds and gemstones all mixed together within the same jewelry ensemble or even within the same piece. So if you have a set of matching earrings and necklace and bracelet and rings and all that, just separate them and wear them with your other jewelry pieces and that is a more current look. I don't normally tell people that they should follow trends because they're trendy, but this is one that has just been out for so long that I do feel like it looks a lot more current when you don't match them perfectly together. Gold and silver mixed together has just been a huge trend. I love this. I don't love it all the time on me personally, but I do like it when there's pieces that just have gold and silver mixed together like this necklace right here. And then I have two rings that I like to wear together that are gold and silver, but I do see other people going way more into this gold and silver mixing and it just gives you way more options with the jewelry that you have. Charms are back and charmed bracelets, charmed necklaces, the ones you can remove and put your own charms on and play around with, those are very much on trend. I think that would actually be a fun Christmas gift or to give someone a charm to put on their charm bracelet or charm necklace or something, but that is back. That is a big trend and I think that is one of those trends that whenever it comes back, I do think it stays around for a while. A necklace that is out that was humongous for years, but the Zodiac necklaces are not really the thing anymore. Do I think you should get rid of your Zodiac necklace? No, I mean, wear it, it looks fine, but it's just not really as crazy of a trend as it used to be. And now what has been trending, and I think this will still last for well into 2025, are the angel number necklaces. So I kind of think this is a little bit of a younger trend. If I were buying a gift for somebody in college or in their 20s, this might be a fun one to do, although you need to know their angel numbers, I guess. But this is a trend that I feel like kind of replaced the Zodiac necklace. And this is one that's a trendy trend. I think it'll last through 2025 and then it'll probably, you know, maybe not last into 2026. The rainbow jewelry, rainbow gemstones, all in the same necklace in rainbow order, is, it's just, it's not really trending anymore. But what is in style, what is very in, is the red and the burgundy jewelry, which makes sense because those two colors are just humongous for 2024 and on into 2025. And so now you're seeing a lot of sapphires and red and burgundy gemstones mixed with gold and mixed with pearls. And this can be really pretty, although you do have to make sure, I guess, your outfit matches to the burgundy. This next one has been out for a while, but even going into 2025, the leather earrings, the tassel earrings, they're just not really in right now. Everything is very much about natural gemstone or gold and silver and pearls and diamonds and things, not so much the tassels and leather and cloth-looking earrings. We are seeing a lot of geometric shapes with a lot of the gold and silver earrings, which I love this. This is, kind of feels a very, this feels a little bit 80s and I love it. I think the jewelry in the 80s was just amazing. Too bad I was a little bitty girl. And so you are seeing a lot of more geometric earrings, kind of like the ones that I'm wearing now. In the bracelet world, we are seeing a lot of cuffs, a lot of chunkier bracelets, a lot of layering, like all of your bracelets layered together to make your bracelet ensemble. In the bracelet world, we're not really seeing so much of the leather cuffs, anything that's not a gold or silver or some kind of metal. We're just not really seeing that be a big trend right now and going into 2025. Lariat necklaces, am I saying that right? Lariat? Anyway, I'll show you a picture. Those are a very big trend right now and you can layer them in this trend cycle. It's very trendy to layer them with other necklaces. They don't have to just be by themselves because remember, you can just layer, layer, layer and it all looks good. It's just whatever is your unique personal style. I love this. I love Lariat necklaces. I just think they can look so beautiful even with like a V-neck like this. And I haven't tried it layered with my other necklaces yet but I will and I'll see how I like that. Diamonds are out. I'm just kidding. Diamonds are not out but mined diamonds, the ones that are questionable, the way that they're acquired, it's kind of out. And now what's in are lab-grown diamonds and there are a lot of beautiful ones. They look exactly like a mined diamond but without all the controversy. If you are in the market for some more diamonds or looking into them, I would definitely look at some lab-grown diamonds because they are just as beautiful and they're not as expensive. So the trend that is coming back, that was just dated for the longest time and honestly, I just, listen, it's coming back. I don't know if it's like screaming everybody's name right now but I'll bet you by spring 2025, no, I'm sorry, that's coming up, maybe next fall 2025, this will be a much moving more into mainstream trend but the long necklaces with a pendant or something at the bottom. Remember we were wearing those 10 years ago, this was all the rage. Those are trying to make a comeback because we are seeing a lot of designers come out with them with like a horn on the bottom or a gemstone or something. I'll be honest with you, I went very hard into that trend 10 years ago and I just don't know if I'm really quite ready for it yet but we'll see, we'll see what happens but that is trying to come back and it makes sense because we really have been into the short necklaces for so long so it's not surprising that long necklaces are gonna make their way back onto the trend cycle. You'll have to let me know how you feel about that. If you like that long necklaces are coming back or if you're like I need a couple more years, let me know in the comments. So those were some jewelry trends that are happening right now and going into 2025. I always think jewelry trends are a lot of fun. It's definitely even more so just something like you take what you love and you leave the rest. If something inspires you, great. If you don't like it, don't do it. You should never feel like you should be forced to wear something just because it's trending but they are a lot of fun to look at. Make sure to check out Mejuri in the description box below. I will leave a link to their website and also list some of the items that I'm wearing right now and anyway, thank you so much for watching and I will see you next time.
