5 Jewellery Trends for Autumn Winter 2021, According to an Expert
Bigger and bolder than ever.
You might dismiss jewellery as being exempt from the cycle of trends, and while many pieces such as simple chains and hoop earrings are timeless, others drift in and out of fashion.
That’s not to say that you shouldn’t wear whatever you want. At Cheap Luxury Handbags , we always encourage our readers to embrace any item that makes them feel comfortable and confident, whether that’s a pair of chandelier earrings, or no jewellery at all.
However, for those interested in what’s trending for AW21, I spoke to an expert to find out which pieces we should be pulling out of our jewellery boxes this season.
Gabrielle Ball is the Founder of jewellery and accessories brand Beaches and Cream. As their name suggests, their pieces are inspired by Ball’s love of the seaside, visible in the shell and sun-embellished pieces.
Ball tells me this season will see a huge rise in extravagant pieces as we move to a new era of fashion post-pandemic.
While we’ve been keeping things very simple over the past 18 months, it’s all about being extra this season and beyond.
“Whilst the pandemic will have a lasting effect on the fashion industry for the next few seasons, jewellery has a new lease of life this Autumn / Winter,” she says.
Here are the biggest trends of the season she’s looking out for.

Charming
Ball says, “Charms aren’t just revered for your wrist, darling! This season, necklace charms are IN.
“Buy yourself a beautiful gold chain, and change your necklace charm to match your mood.”
The trend was seen at Marine Serre, Miu Miu and Marni.

Pearls
Ball says, “Forever classic, pearls are definitely on the agenda this season. But forget standard pearl earrings they’ve had a major glow-up!
“Combined with gold charms, you can wear these beauties on their own, or layer them for a major luxe look.”
