Spring 2011 Jewelry Fashion Update
Runway – The runway this season shows big bold metal cuffs made of structural metal with smooth lines and embellished with large cabochon gemstones and metal components. Necklaces have the same feel with bold colors and clean metal lines. Beaded bibs and chokers are back. Plastics, ribbon and whimsical designs also showed up.
Oscars – The Oscars saw Emeralds at every turn. Emerald and diamond earrings, necklaces, bracelets and rings were worn with red and blue hued dresses. Also earrings were a dominant accessory highlighting tassels and feathers.
Art & Craft – At a recent craft show there were cuffs and feathers on every table. Leather cuffs with very large metal focals in floral shapes. Metal cuffs embellished with feathers and beads. Feather and fabric earrings with rhinestone and metal embellishments and feather hairpieces in all colors were a stand out.
What’s missing? – I’d like to see more vintage embellishments, especially from artisan jewelry designers. I’m currently looking for more vintage pieces (I’ve used up most of my recycled stash) to redesign into more modern styles. Although the labor is very intensive I’m working on a beaded bib necklace. While bibs are still very much in fashion, a good quality one is hard to find. Honeysuckle pink is projected to be the hot color in jewelry for spring, although I haven’t seen much of it around at all. I do love the brown/gold/orange combinations and the neutral shell tones though. I absolutely love the emerald colors seen at the Oscars and plan on working a lot with this color in the coming months along with its rich siblings in red, purple and blue. I also love the feathers and would like to see more of a modern nature theme come to life with animal prints and insects. Stay tuned to www.jenuinearticles.com to see my latest and greatest designs!

I am working on a fashion trend update for Spring which I will be sharing with you soon. I'll also be launching a new giveaway with CoolCanucks.ca in the coming weeks. Details to come. The website www.jenuinearticles.com just got a makeover with a new color scheme and logos. I'm very excited about upcoming shows this year. I'll be applying for Unique LA at the California Market Center in May. I hope they accept me this year.
