Overview:
3 Of Our Favourite Autumn Jewellery Trends
Autumn is on the horizon, and as summer turns to autumn, we're turning our attention to chic new jewellery trends to channel over the coming months. For a fresh take on autumn's must-have style, look out for standout pieces from our collection of jewellery. Find out our top 3 autumn jewellery trends below.
Powerful Pearl Jewellery
While pearls were once seen as a symbol of purity, chastity and conservative values, women of today are changing these outdated connotations to instead have pearl jewellery reflect their power, autonomy and bold personalities. Looking to the political sphere, US Vice President Kamala Harris is one of few influential people responsible for this upward trend. Harris, who was appointed America’s first female as well as African American and Asian-American US vice president, has always worn pearls at momentous occasions and the case was no different during her inauguration in early 2021. Here, she donned a gold necklace studded with chunky-sized pearls.
As to why Harris wears pearls, she said it’s due to her personal connection to them being symbols of solidarity and sisterhood. Thus comes our first recommendation: pearl jewellery.
If you’re wondering how to implement pearls into your ensemble, we suggest the best way is start with a pearl necklace. Not only are they easy to put on, flattering and captivating, but they can also instantly elevate an outfit from sub-standard to seriously sensational. Encapsulating the season of autumn, we suggest instead of opting for traditional white pearls, to dabble in colours like pale pink pearls, shimmery silver pearls and the ever-exotic Tahitian black pearls.
Start with princess-length necklaces with smaller pearls. Once you’re feeling more comfortable and looking for something a little more striking you can try matinee lengths with chunkier pearls and larger links. Either way, just know you really can’t go wrong with pearls.

Shine With Gemstones
Are you the type of person who usually sticks to wearing neutral colours? We don’t blame you. Neutrals are neat, tidy and uniform however, they lack persona. We’re not saying to ditch the neutrals but why not accentuate your minimalistic style with a touch of colour? This brings us to recommendation number two: gemstone jewellery.
Gemstones come in a myriad of colours, shapes and cuts and while also boasting a captivating allure, they possess a number of health and spiritual benefits. Turning our heads to gemstones in the public eye, Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton and American actress Jessica Simpson were both given gemstone engagement rings: sapphire and ruby rings respectively.
Sapphires are coined the ‘gemstone of prosperity’ while also being beneficial in maintaining mental and physical wellbeing whereas rubies, other than having a mesmerising red hue, are said to promote love, compassion and overall wealth, so there’s no wonder why their respective partners opted for gemstone-based rings over common princess cut diamond rings.
So how can you incorporate a pop of colour into your wardrobe attire? Well, a bracelet is a great starting point. A bracelet is functional, easy to wear and most importantly adds a subtle element of sophistication and by adding colour it creates a more playful, modern chic ensemble.
Peruse our selection of gold bracelets and silver bracelets embellished with a selection of black sapphires, rubies, emeralds and garnets for more inspiration.

Add Sparkle To Your Ankles
Okay so we’ve given you suggestions for your neck and wrist but that doesn’t mean jewellery is strictly for your body’s upper half. It’s autumn, so while it may be slightly cooler it is still perfect weather for flowy skirts, palazzo pants and sundresses. In saying that, this brings us to recommendation number three: anklets.
Anklets add a spritz of bling to any outfit while also expressing a distinct sense of style and class and we’re not alone when thinking that. From musician turned business mogul, Rihanna, to artist Jennifer Lopez and former Disney star and singer Selena Gomez frequently rocking anklets, it’s time to jump on the anklet bandwagon.
Also, don’t get the wrong impression that anklets are only for casual clothing, you can easily reinvigorate your corporate attire too by pairing loafers, pumps or even ballet flats with anklets. Personally, we suggest matching black shoes with a silver anklet, for a more refined, work-appropriate fit but really you can get as creative as you like.
Be sure to check out our range of silver anklets and gold anklets for more inspiration.
