The latest trend in statement jewelry is a less is more approach. Master the minimalist look by embracing delicate necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and rings, learn to layer and stack or choose just one knockout piece of eye candy to punch up your vacation style. Here’s our edit of the must-have minimalist jewelry.
Elegant Necklaces
It’s all about “fine, ultra-feminine gold necklaces adorned with a cute charm” according to New York jewelry designer Bianca Pratt (though a classic box chain also ticks all the right boxes). The perfect piece to showcase a tropical island tan and sexy decolletage, adding an adorable palm tree charm by celebrity jewelry designer Jennifer Meyer is just the ticket for an idyllic escape to Punta Mita. Pair with a flowy maxi dress and summer sandals for the perfect coastal chic ensemble.

Delicate Bracelets
Free-spirited travelers, those that love a wide-open road trip adventure, should look to the trend for delicate vintage-inspired bracelets and bangles. Think the classic chain or old school simple bangles stacked. One of our favorite pieces by John Hardy symbolizes the heart of the brand’s community in Bali while the iconic T by Tiffany evokes the spirit of connection.

Signature Rings
Add an eclectic touch to your signature style on your next dreamy getaway, like exploring the unspoiled beauty, historical ruins, and hip scene in Tulum, with a unique ring. Look at textured styles, simple stackable bands or something bolder like the bell ring by I’m Jewel. “Jewelry, especially rings, are a subtle but very personal way to reveal a little of yourself,” says fashion and jewelry expert Rachael Elderfield, founder of Lola TriBeCa beloved for its curated mix of jewelry inspired by sun, sand, surf and sparkles created by female only designers and artisans.

Statement Earrings
Earrings add an instant pop of glamour to even the most understated looks. Consider these your secret style weapons to elevate your outfit for a stay in a chic fashion hotel, European getaway, or cocktails at an amazing rooftop bar and restaurant. Make a statement in long sleek or elegant drop earrings, or a modern twist on the classic hoop.
