Gone are the days of barely-there chains and thin metal rings?costume jewelry is here to take their place. Statement necklaces, big jeweled earrings, and chunky medallion bracelets are going to reign supreme this year, with a nod to the return of maximalism. Even gaudy belts and brooches are going to be making a return, based on the recent runways of Versace and Chanel.
This is a welcome change from the minimalist trends that have taken over in recent years and gives everyone a chance to have fun with fashion again. If you’re new to the costume jewelry trend, try pairing a bold medallion necklace with a simple white t-shirt and your favorite jeans.
