The Season ’ s Hottest Jewelry Trends

L ight and Del icate Looks to Elevate Your Style

By chris bynum

W hen it comes to adornment, is it more is more or less is more? Go for the bold? Or embrace the delicate? “It’s personal,” say those who never leave home without their bijoux. Even fashion icons disagree. Coco Chanel, that legend of enduring style, would say take one thing off, and 94-year-old Iris Apfel, the queen of flea-market finds, would suggest you put one more on. But just to make the choice easier, jewelry designers have made the bold bracelets more airy, the dangle earrings lighter. Delicate bracelets can stack or go solo. And semi-precious stones provide brilliant color with earthbound elegance. Even CBS’ primetime “Madam Secretary” (Tea Leoni) never heads into a peace summit without multiple strands of delicate necklaces and her security detail.

The best thing about spring and summer style? Necks and arms are bare and ready to be adorned.
