Women's Diamond Jewelry Trends

When it comes to women's diamond jewelry, there are various new trends that appear every season. The tough part about jewelry trends are they can be difficult to keep up with, depending on the type of budget you set aside each season for purchasing jewelry. Since diamonds are forever, you want your diamond jewelry to last and be in style forever as well. So how can you tell which trends are one season, or multi-season trends?

The first thing you want to start with is the adoption of the trend by major jewelry designers. This is tough, because the bigger the designer, the slower they are to react to the new trends that are in season. Some companies do a great job of setting trends, as opposed to following them. These are the companies and designers you want to keep an eye on. Trend setters often design items that having "staying power", meaning once they come out with something, it usually stays desirable for a while. Diamond journey jewelry is a great example of this. What started out as a trend has now become a fixture in collections of even the finest jewelers. If you feel like you've seen a lot of a particular trend and you want to find a unique piece that still originates from that trend, look for a boutique online diamond jewelry store that specializes in these designs.

Magazines and fashion blogs are always a good place to browse for ideas on what's hot in the world of diamond jewelry. It wasn't too long ago that Christie Brinkley was spotted wearing diamond peace sign jewelry on the red carpet. Now days, almost every jeweler has some type of peace sign jewelry in their store or web site. How long the trend will last is hard to say, but if you like a design, there is nothing wrong with wearing it at your leisure, even if other people have stopped wearing it.

Of course, you can play it very safe and go with a staple piece of jewelry that never goes out of style. Solitaire diamond jewelry has been around forever and shows no signs of going out of style. But even though you cannot go wrong with classic, it certainly is not the most interesting piece of jewelry you can wear. If all else fails, don't be afraid to try and start your own trend. If you pick out a piece of jewelry that's unique and other people ask you about it, you know you're on to something. Who knows? You might have a knack for setting jewelry trends.
