Sizzling Summer Jewellery Trends to Shine in 2025

 Feeling the heat? Let your jewellery do the talking this summer with bold styles, vibrant stones, mixed metals and layering. Whether you're heading off on holiday or dressing up for an evening out, 2025’s jewellery trends are all about self-expression, radiant colour, and playful elegance. Here’s what’s making waves this season:

Jewellery That Loves Sunkissed Skin

The right jewellery doesn’t just accessorize—it enhances. In 2025, choosing pieces that complement your skin tone is front and centre. If your skin is sunkissed, lean into metals and stones that highlight your natural glow.

• Best gemstones for tanned skin: Citrine, Garnet, Morganite, and Peridot.
• Warm metals to try: Yellow Gold adds a rich glow and Rose Gold flatters with a soft blush.

 

Mix It Up: Metals with Attitude

Gone are the days of picking between Gold or Sterling Silver. This year, it’s all about mixing metals for a fresh, modern vibe. Combine Yellow Gold, Silver, Platinum, or Rose Gold to build a layered look that’s both versatile and bold. Don’t be afraid to mix finishes - matte, brushed and polished textures can live together beautifully.

The Return of Retro

Vintage-inspired jewellery is having a major moment in 2025. Think bold metals, intricate detailing, and statement stones that tell a story. Retro pieces evoke old-school charm while feeling fresh and fashion-forward.

• What to look for: Art Deco designs, chunky gold chains, and engraved rings.
• The vibe: Glamorous, nostalgic, and full of character.

Gemstones That Pop

Nothing says summer like a splash of colour—and this season’s jewellery is embracing the sunshine with vibrant, mood-boosting gemstones. Think Amethyst, Citrine, Sapphires, and Garnet.

·         Why it works in summer: As wardrobes shift to breezy neutrals, linens, and open necklines, bold gemstones add just the right amount of contrast and personality. A pop of colour against glowing skin or a white cotton dress can elevate your whole outfit.

Stack It Up: Bangles & Cuffs

Wristwear is getting a bold refresh this season. Stacked bangles and statement cuffs are turning arms into mini galleries of expression. Mix slim, charm-adorned bracelets with chunky links in different metals and textures.

The beauty of this trend? It’s completely personal. Pile them high or keep it minimal—either way, you’re making a statement.

Styling Tips for Summer Sparkle

• Layer Boldly: Stack necklaces or rings using a mix of Citrine and Garnet for a vibrant, high-impact combo.
• Contrast Smartly: Let colourful gems stand out against neutral outfits.
• Match the Mood: Try Ruby or Garnet for glamorous evenings and opt for Citrine or Morganite for sun-drenched daytime looks.

Summer Jewellery Care Tips

To keep your favourite pieces looking radiant all season long, don’t forget to give them a little summer-specific TLC:

Limit Exposure to Sand and Saltwater

• Remove jewellery before swimming: Saltwater can corrode metals and damage gemstones.
• Rinse with clear water if exposure to seawater or chlorine cannot be avoided
• Avoid wearing jewellery during beach activities: Sand and impact from games like volleyball can scratch and bend delicate pieces.

 Protect from Sun Exposure

• Avoid prolonged UV exposure: Direct sunlight can fade coloured gemstones and tarnish metals.
• Apply sunscreen before putting on jewellery: This helps avoid residue build-up that can dull shine.
