My favorite part about summer is color! Anything goes during the summer months, and you, too, should get bright and cheery with some radiant jewelry and vibrant outfits. Here are a few looks I recommend; jewelry via Daria de Koning (of course!) and clothes via Moda Operandi.
Jewelry for the beach or pool is always a stylish and chic idea. Best for sitting under an umbrella with a cool glass of lemonade or for taking a light dip – not for water skiing or laps! You can never go wrong with a gold bracelet, like the Orbit, or a fun juicy pop of color, like our Dagny ring in raspberry colors. I especially love our Gold-in-Quartz Necklace for summer. It's not only an eye-catching piece, but the white quartz paired with bright yellow gold gives it a light feeling that goes with everything you put on this season.
As a born and bred New Yorker, I grew up with the mentality that you are fully dressed when you put on your jewelry. Our Fawn Earrings make a bold statement, plus are a nice neutral to complement another summer staple – a breezy floral dress. Add in a fun ring like the Supernova in sunshiny yellow and orange to tie it all together. Beat the heat in this ensemble and look lovely for a day at work, an afternoon exploring a new museum or a stroll through the park!
During the summer, a favorite place to be is in my shady backyard sipping rosé with friends. Naturally, our Rose All Day Earrings and a worn-in pair of jeans are a must for these gatherings. Toss on a Byzantine ring or a Supernova pendant for some extra flair, and enjoy the carefree, long days of summer.
Happy Summer! Shop these looks on our site and Moda Operandi!
