Chain Linked Rings
Whether barely there, or embellished and audacious, all knuckles are gaining long overdue attention with this trend. Feeling particularly daring? Try the look on multiple fingers, or pairing with our # 6 trend.
L to R: Haati Chai 'Siti' Ring, Angle Diamond Dot 'Chain Me To Eskdale' Ring, Haati Chai 3 Link 'Ankta' Ring
Ear Cuffs
When traditional earrings simply aren’t enough, turn to the ear cuff. These ornamental pieces are surprisingly easy to style, and add a serious dose of glam to any outfit
L to R: Haati Chai 'Charu' Ear Cuff, Bita Pourtavoosi 'Mola' Ear Cuff, Angle Diamond Dot Blood Stone Earring Cuff
Extreme Layered Necklaces
Bigger is definitely better when it comes to this trend. Layering extreme quantities of antique and vintage-inspired necklaces is a quick, easy and truly personalized way to stand out in a crowd, especially when paired against the season’s relaxed, casual looks (think jeans, slouchy tees and leather). We love how blogger Danielle Bernstein of WeWoreWhat wore her version!

Spikes
No longer reserved strictly for the rocker set, these dagger-like darlings complement both formal and casual looks, adding just the right amount of polished edge to any attire.
L to R: Jeweliany Black 'Micco' Bracelet, Haati Chai 'Taal' Earrings, Jeweliany 'Fabbi' Brass Necklace
Body Chains
Instantly transform your look with an unexpected body chain. Slip over a tank top, a sleek strapless maxi dress or even an everyday tee to truly elevate your style to the next level.

Wide Band Rings
Everyone from editors to bloggers to street-style starlets have jumped on board this trend that shows no signs of slowing. Wear just one, or mix and alternate fingers to find your own perfect look.
