Many of us have spent the better part of the year in chilled loungewear and our working-from-home-best, but as al fresco dining returns and we welcome friends and family back into our gardens, it’s a nice excuse to give some extra thought into our outfits and more specifically, how any look can be elevated with jewellery!

To give you a helping hand as you reconnect with loved ones and rediscover your wardrobe, here are the must-have jewellery trends to bring into the summer season…

Keep it colourful

We all deserve colour in our lives, now more than ever. And when it comes to jewellery, the brighter the better. Add a starry contrast to a neutral outfit with this gorgeous semi-precious gemstone necklace from Lola Rose. Or for something a little more subtle, this stunning tanzanite and pink tourmaline ring offers the perfect amount of sparkle and hue, even for the most modest of palettes.

Sleek metals

From delicate chains to chunky bangles, smooth platings to contemporary textures; metals deliver a cool, polished finish to any look. Available in a gold or silver tone, this hammered cuff from Frank Usher will add dimension to any outfit from day to evening, while these twisted hoop earrings from Bronzo Italia will add a minimalist sheen you’ll love.

Modern pearls

Set with diamonds, gold, silver or brass, pearls have undergone a modern makeover. This eye-catching figaro chain necklace from Butler & Wilson combines glamour with the simplistic elegance of the single baroque pearl that hangs below. Alternatively (or in addition!), the faux pearls and simulated diamonds on this striking ring from Dannii Minogue by Diamonique create a delicate gleam that offers understated glamour. Wear it alone or stacked with your other favourite rings for a multi-layered look.

Make a statement

Whether you live for a bold look or you’re someone who prefers to keep things more subtle, fashion jewellery is the perfect way to bring any outfit to life whatever the occasion. This 18-carat gold panther ring is embedded with shimmering emeralds and diamonds and will add some feline fancy to your favourite attire, while these starburst earrings from Butler & Wilson will complete any look with their eye-catching sparkle.

Beachy vibes

Finally, what better way to celebrate sunnier days to come than with boho style beads and nautical tones. Cue these beautiful dreamcatcher earrings from Annie Haak, perfect for bringing a whimsical touch to your staycation ensembles, or why not pay homage to the ocean waves with this blue Amazon stone mix semi-precious necklace from Lola Rose.

Now you just need to book a table with five friends and flaunt your fabulous looks! If you want to find more ways to bring sparkle and joy into your new-season wardrobe, then browse the rest of our jewellery range here for inspiration.

As we’re beginning to store away our cosy scarves and knitted gloves, it’s about time that we give our wardrobes a refresh now that spring has well and truly arrived. This year, we’re forgetting one-hit wonders and instead focusing on creating a well-rounded, cyclical wardrobe that can carry us through the seasons, which will be kinder to our purses too!

So, to help ease you into the new season, we’ve laid out the essentials you’ll need to keep you on-trend, come spring showers or summer solstice!

Make it a maxi
Offering length to shield your legs from the chilly breeze while remaining lightweight enough in the warmth, having a selection of maxi dresses on-hand will keep you looking oh-so elegant with minimal effort required.

We’re currently loving this sleeveless design from Denim & Co., which can be layered with a cosy knit jumper or styled alone when the sun shines. This short-sleeved maxi from Joules would also add a chic flair to your look, paired with your go-to trainers.

Keep it cropped
Flattering and oh-so chic, a cropped leg design will give your outfit a fashion-forward edge that won’t be going out of style anytime soon. The flared legs on this Coco Bianco jumpsuit will bring an elegant touch to your everyday look, while these chinos from Joules will keep you feeling sleek and sophisticated when teamed with your favourite button-up shirt and flats.

Lightweight layering
The unpredictable weather that this time of year brings means saying goodbye to your chunky coats and hello to versatile layers that can seamlessly adapt to the alternating temperatures.

This oversized duster cardigan from WynneLayers provides an airy drape that wears beautifully over any outfit, while this denim jacket by Ruth Langsford is a seasonal staple that you can throw on for instant style elevation.

Finishing touches
The spring and summer trends offer so many opportunities to upgrade your outfits with statement accessories. These chunky Frank Usher earrings and the matching necklace will create the perfect co-ordinated look for a vibrant and overstated flair.

Our wardrobe revamp would not be complete without classic wedges. This gorgeous pair from Vionic will add comfort to your step while giving an instant lift to your look, and can be accessorised perfectly with this small and compact cross-body bag from Kipling.
