How to Transition Your Jewelry from Winter to Spring
With spring just around the corner, it’s time to shed the cozy layers and embrace its joyful warmth. Just as you update your wardrobe with lighter fabrics and brighter colors, your jewelry collection can undergo a seasonal transformation. Instead of knitted jumpers and chunky jewelry, spring leans towards light, delicate pieces, and pops of color.
Here’s how to transition your jewelry from winter to spring—and the best spring jewelry to add to your collection.
Add Some Florals
Spring is the season of new beginnings. Channel the beauty of blooming flowers with floral jewelry. Look for pieces adorned with delicate flowers, petals, or nature-inspired designs. Floral earrings, bracelets, or a botanical-themed brooch can add a touch of springtime charm to your ensemble. And because these blooms will never wilt, you can wear and treasure them season after season.

Play Around With Pastels
Pastel colors are synonymous with spring and instantly evoke a sense of warmth and renewal. Swap out darker gemstones like rubies and black onyx for softer shades like lavender amethyst, minty green peridot, or blush pink morganite. Whether in earrings, bracelets, or necklaces, pastel jewelry complements the season’s palette while adding a whimsical touch to your outfit.

Adorn Your Neckline With a Dainty Necklace
As the temperatures rise and the turtlenecks come off, embrace the opportunity to showcase your neckline with a dainty, elegant necklace. Consider layering multiple delicate chains for an effortlessly chic look. Choose pieces with lightweight pendants, such as a tiny flower, leaf, or a symbol that resonates with the essence of spring. While winter focuses more on heavy, statement jewelry strategically placed over multiple layers, spring is about embracing lighter, brighter pieces.
Mix and Match
Spring is a season of diversity and the perfect time to get creative with your jewelry looks. Mirror the season’s array of textures and colors by mixing and matching different stones, textures, and materials. Combine lustrous pearls with a chunky chain, or pair a diamond bracelet with a woven leather band for an exciting contrast. Let your imagination go wild.
