As
summer heats up,
stylish women will be keeping their cool with sophisticated,
playful jewelry with an accent on color.
The
trend in jewelry this summer features delicate pastels
the kind you would find on a babys blanket: powder blue,
soft turquoise, blush pink, mint green, and pale yellow. Translated
into gemstones by gem and design experts at GIA, this means
aquamarine, blue topaz, blue and pink sapphire, pink and green
tourmaline, peridot, citrine, yellow sapphire, and chalcedony
and dont forget about the classic pearl. For the
ultimate in flattery to all complexion types, advises GIA, look
for soft, luminescent gems in misty colors such as pearl, moonstone,
chalcedony, rose and smoky quartz.
The
pastel color palette made its appearance in watches about a
year ago, where unexpectedly soft hues captured the attention
of trendsetters worldwide. Spring fashion featured demure dresses
and blouses of lace and sheer fabrics with delicate floral patterns,
and this mood carries on into summer. Summers short shorts,
sheer tee shirts, and layered tank tops will have the same feeling.
