Jewellery Style Update – Summer 2012

Jewellery is all about statement this summer, with bright colours and original designs, we have everything you could want here at Shade Station. The summer months seem to bring out the more adventurous side of us all and our accessories should reflect this; whether it be a subtle bracelet or a distinguishing necklace, you can always tell someone’s personality from their jewellery! Couer De Lion Jewellery continues to be a stalwart brand, producing ever popular jewellery for the discerning lady. Their distinctive square styles are sure to make you stand out from the crowd and the varied use of colour in their jewellery makes them suitable for anyone of any age.

Each piece of Couer De Lion jewellery is handmade in Stuttgart and sold in over 30 countries around the world and featured in some of the most prestigious museums on the planet including London’s Royal Academy. It is a brand aimed at women who like to wear fashionable jewellery, but like to have the highest quality products. The vivid colour schemes have been integrated with the modest shapes to create products which sit nicely on anybody; whether you are style minded or just like that little bit of quality in your life. The same can be said for Skagen Jewellery, which boasts an incredibly high quality of production and finish at prices that can fit most budgets! Based on a small fishing town in Scandinavia renowned for it’s amazing scenery, you can actually see how much of this has influenced the manufacture of these fantastic pieces of jewellery. The use of circular shapes and original mesh straps make Skagen very different from what you may normally go for; however you will not be disappointed. Despite the fact that each piece of Skagen jewellery is a work of creative and technical art, they are made with fashion in mind, designed to make any lady look effortlessly beautiful.

Fossil is a brand that manages to fuse creativity and fashion with a contemporary twist. There are some seriously stunning pieces in the Fossil Jewellery range for this summer, including minimalist necklaces and rings which would compliment any style whatever the weather! Their distinctive leather cuffs cater towards men who like to wear something a little different from normal, yet have something which will blend seamlessly into your regular look. For men, it is quite hard to find accessories which they like that also fit; but Fossil’s adjustable cuffs and expandable rings ensure that no man will go without this summer. But it’s not just the men that have something to shout about, Fossil’s women’s jewellery is an eclectic mix of savvy designs, unusual shapes and vivid colours that create a range of jewellery perfect for those fashionistas out there! Fossil Jewellery is versatile, elegant and original; combining cubic zirconia charms and Swarovski pearls to make for a truly unique collection.

Nice men’s jewellery is hard to come by nowadays, with the vast majority of brands aiming their products primarily at women; however there is one company that makes something just for the guys, Diesel Jewellery. If you are looking to find a piece of jewellery which encompasses urban chic and the sheer essence of cool, then look no further. Their leather cuffs are in the same league as Fossil’s and have perfect necklaces to accompany them. From dog tags, to simple key style pendants, they are made for a man that will like more of a statement piece this summer.

You can rely on a couple of brands in particular to keep producing new, varied and stylish jewellery; Calvin Klein Jewellery and DKNY Jewellery. Calvin Klein’s new range takes them back to their roots with classic bangles emblazoned with the very recognasible CK logo and necklaces and earrings which compliment the wrist wear perfectly. Calvin Klein are renowned for their distinctive rings and you can see that this summer’s collection is no different, from their set of 3 astound rings and the slatted form ring, they are sticking with what they know, but why shouldn’t they? They are one of the biggest names in fashion and will be for a long time to come. DKNY jewellery is designed to be the embodiment of New York style itself with bold, chunky shapes juxtaposed with edgy, urban appeal.
