Fall Gems

616

By Julie Davis
 
The accessories motto for fall: pile it on. Layering jewelry – and lots of it – is back in fashion. Beads with bold gemstones, gold with silver; it’s the season of personal style.
 
But how much is too much? If you opt for an armful of bangles, keep the neckline to a minimum and vice versa. All in all, the trend is liberating so just have fun.
 
Get Cuffed
Wrap your wrist with the statement bracelet of the season – this wire-wrapped emerald cuff is simply striking. Layer it with bangles for a chic daytime look.

Layer Up
Wear not one, but two or three necklaces. Layering a variety of colors and lengths looks fresh and modern.

Stack Up
The more arm candy, the better. Mix and match metals with beaded bangles for a look that stylishly excessive.

Go Bold
Big, bold, bright earrings are an easy way to add color to any ensemble – and look stunning with hair pulled into a low-slung bun.
