5 Ways to Upgrade Your Jewelry Wardrobe for Winter

Who said that winter style has to be drab? Jewelry is the perfect way to dress up a bulky sweater, style a party dress, or add a pop of color in a season known for neutrals. Whether you’re gifting someone a trending piece this season or looking to refresh your own winter wardrobe, Shane Co. has all the styles you need to feel fashionable.

Rock the Party in Pearls

Clutch your pearls, because they’re in style this winter! Elevate your party look, class up a simple sweater, or add a pretty layer to an edgy blazer. We’re seeing a lot of big pearls and Tahitian pearls as alternatives to the traditional smaller, whiter versions of the gem. Pearls are being used not only for prim-and-proper looks but for edgy ones in a movement known as “pearlcore.”

Did You Know? To convince Marc Antony that Egypt was above conquest, Cleopatra promised him the most expensive dinner in the world. She submerged a pearl in a glass of wine (or vinegar) and drank it down, much to his astonishment.

Stay Haute with Hoop Earrings

Hoop earrings are another staple that has circled back around as one of the most popular jewelry styles this winter. Accessorize hoops with a black dress for a touch of fun-meets-sophistication, or pair them with a scarf or turtleneck. This season, we’re seeing big hoops and colorful statement pieces reminiscent of the fun fashion of the 1980s. 

Did You Know? In 1922, when King Tutankhamun was discovered in his tomb with hoops in his ears, the earrings’ association with royalty was only reinforced.

Hoop Earrings at Shane Co.

We have a selection of both classic and modern hoop earrings at Shane Co. There’s something for everyone. Check out a couple of our fresh picks below.

Hoop Earrings

Big hoops are in this season, and these yellow gold hoops fit the bill. They’re perfect for dressing up a simple outfit or adding to a bold one.

Amethyst Hoop Earrings

Add a pop of purple with these amethyst hoop earrings. The yellow gold and purple combo adds a beautiful touch of style.

Layer Up This Winter with Chain Necklaces

Layer up with more than a warm coat this winter. Add chains to your winter wardrobe to show off a bit of sparkle, whether it’s with a thin chain or layers of bold ones. This season, we’re seeing a lot of thick chains come into fashion on the runways and in street style.

Did You Know? In the 1930s, Coco Chanel was known for bringing the layered-necklace look into fashion. She actually wore multiple strands of pearls — mix these with gold chains for a doubly in-style aesthetic.

Chains at Shane Co.

Shop chain necklaces and add as many layers as you want. Mix and match metals, thicknesses, and styles. A couple of modern, unique styles are featured below.

Curb Chain

This vermeil 14k yellow gold chain offers a darling-meets-daring style. It’s deceptively lightweight, so it won’t feel heavy despite its bold appeal.

Paperclip Chain

Paperclip chains are in this season as well, and this unique yellow gold chain is perfect for anyone who wants a slightly unique chain that stands out.

Sleigh in Silver This Season

Silver is in style! We love its edgy look with today’s leather trends, metallic skirts and dresses, and chunky boots. We’re seeing a lot of silver this season all over the fashion world. People are wearing it for its modern, bold style. Silver hearts are also popular this season, thanks to designers like Versace. 

Did You Know? In the 1940s, silver was popular as other metals were reserved for use in World War II.

Sterling Silver at Shane Co.

Sterling silver at Shane Co. is one of our popular metal options. Silver is a great way to stay in style and stay within your budget. We’ve listed two trending sterling silver jewelry options below.

Dangle Earrings

These earrings are modern and fashion-forward with their swooping design. Add a bit of a subtle edge with this twist on classic dangle earrings.

Diamond Heart Locket

With starburst etching, this locket combines trending silver with a heart-shaped design. It provides a touch of sentimentality with optional engraving and an opening for you to put a personal photo inside.

Bling in the New Year with Bangle Bracelets

Not sure how to wear a bracelet with long sleeves this winter? Try bangles! You can fit these bulkier bracelets more easily over a sweater sleeve than a thin chain. Plus, you’ll look super contemporary chic while doing so. Today’s bangles are classy while still providing a fun way to mix, match, and play up your personality.

Did You Know? Bangles have been around for at least 5,000 years. In the excavation of the Mohenjo-Daro settlement on the banks of the Indus River in modern-day Pakistan, a statue was found that depicted a girl wearing bangles.

Bangles at Shane Co.

We offer classic bangle bracelets along with modern, cheeky ones. Layer them together for a beautiful bangle look.

Classic Bangle Bracelet

This classic bangle bracelet is available in yellow gold and rose gold. It’s fun and stylish. Add custom engraving for a personal touch.

Shane Co. has all the pieces you need. Build your jewelry wardrobe this winter with a mix of classic and modern looks to feel fresh all season long and beyond. Shop at ShaneCo.com to start your new collection now.
