The sun is shining, the days are getting longer, we know this only means one thing... Summer is well and truly on its way, and we honestly couldn't be happier about it. It has been yet another long and challenging year for a lot of us, and a Summer of freedom and playful jewellery is exactly the kind of pick-me-up we need.

With the world opening up, people are eager to show off their style, and the shiny metals, gemstones and pearls you can adorn yourself with are the perfect way to do so. As Summer approaches, we are going to begin seeing more individuality in accessorising, from colourful combinations to personalised pieces, and we are here for all of it.

Opals and Pearls

Pearl accents are not done having their moment, in fairness, does anything else remind you of the Summer more? Maybe Opals! These oceanic jewels have long been an elegant adornment. They're effortlessly classic and feminine and great to pair or layer with other pieces from your jewellery collection. Styles like our best seller, the Oceana Necklace or the Castle Rock Opal Hoops embody this look perfectly.

Colours and Gems

This Summer it's all about pops of colour, whether they're subtle gem stones that glisten on dainty pieces like those in our Lucent collection, or they're more bright and fun pops of colour like our reimagined childhood favourite, the Treasured Friendship Bracelets, make sure you're incorporating some colour into your metal stacks.

Personalised Pieces

From cult classics like wearing your Birth Flower, to wearing your initials, personalised jewellery can be tailored to anyone's tastes. At BIANKO our point of difference always was our just-for-you approach to designing jewellery. Pieces that represent who you are in a personal way are only rising in popularity. We love them because they are special and unique to the person wearing them and that sentiment deeply resonates. We design jewellery to feel like a second skin which is why you will find that each of our collections has a deeper meaning. 

Layer Up

With post pandemic fashion already embracing subtle maximalism, our jewellery is following suit. Whether layering chokers and chains or piling on the arm candy, there is no limit to accessorising this summer. People are becoming more experimental when it comes to combining jewellery, if that's what you're considering, check our our Mixed Metals blog. With the weather getting warmer and clothing layers disappearing, heavily stacked neck and ring looks are on the rise.

The best Summer style trend we can recommend is fun. Make it your own and have fun playing around with different styles. Don't forget to share your looks with us @_bianko
