Amanda’s Style File: Floral Mania
There’s a flower craze sweeping across the industry, offering designs not just for the warm seasons but pieces that can be worn all year long.
Floral mania is sweeping across the jewelry industry. Call it hot, call it popular, but don’t call it trendy.
Today’s floral jewelry is not meant to be worn simply for the spring and summer seasons but embraced all year by giving wearers a little connection to eternal summer vibes and sunny disposition. Jewelry designers are giving flower-themed jewelry a fresh perspective that, when done right, makes it a classic for years and years to come.
The pieces featured in this Style File run the gamut from bold enamel flowers to abstract, floral-inspired designs and full-floral designs to simple floral accents.
Here are a few pieces to consider.
