The Pendant Necklace - A Summer Jewelry Trend for Everyone!
August 5, 2008
Summer sparkle is all about a personal statement. Layered pendants with shells, beads and golden tassels - they're all medallion musts.
Diamonds,
gold, tassels, shells, beads - the fashion forward are using anything and
everything to adorn the long chains flowing around their necks this season. Yes,
it's true. The pendant necklace is making a comeback. But Jewelry.com is happy
to report it's a far cry from Flavor Flav's signature clock and the blinged out
styles of Hip Hop's fashion past. Whew!
And there's more good news. This look isn't just for the LC and Miley set. We spotted a fab gold snake pendant on Michelle Yeoh at this week's The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emporer premiere and absolutely love how actress, Mamie Gummer (daughter of Meryl), layers her look at mom's Mama Mia debut.
Hey. If you want to go big like Flav, we support you. But there are so many ways to skin this cat. Dig into your grandmother's jewelry box for a vintage locket. Replace the standard gold chain with a ribbon or a long, leather cord. Splurge on an unforgettable diamond piece or scout for a unique gold medallion. Wear not one but two - or even three - pendants in a mix and matched look. Any way you slice it, this trend will have your signature style written all over it. And that, my dear friend, is the best part about it.
Summer won't last forever, so get out there and show off your unique interpretation!
Carpe Diem!
