The 2024 Jewelry Trends

Jewelry is the easiest way to change up your closet and refresh your closet without breaking the bank. While fashion trends can often follow similar aesthetics, jewelry trends have always taken a more broad-church approach.

2024 jewelry trends have something to offer everyone, from fans of statement pieces to those who prefer a more minimalistic look.  The ‘quiet luxury’ aesthetic is still going strong, with gold jewelry continuing to dominate the industry. Bohemian chic is making a contemporary comeback, with ear cuffs, dangle earrings, and single pendants topping our shopping list for 2024.

We’re sharing the 2024 jewelry trends we’re already talking about, along with our favorite Malibu Sunday pieces. 2024 is the year of jewelry trends where subtle boldness meets ultra-femme silhouettes. 

1. Mismatched Earrings

One of our go-to looks from last year is still going strong as a 2024 jewelry trend. A mismatched earring set is the easiest way to add a quirky edge to any outfit. We saw this trend across the runway for 2024 collections from brands like Valentino, Fend, and Schiaparelli.

You can pick up a mismatched set, like our Knightly earrings, or play around with mixing up earrings you already have in your jewelry box. It’s the perfect way to keep wearing those earrings you’ve lost the matching stud for.

2. Cuff Bracelets

3. Bohemian Chic

Bohemian chic is a fashion aesthetic that comes around every few years like clockwork. It’s the feminine, laid-back look that has us thinking of Sundays spent by the beach and gets us excited about jetting off on vacation.

Start planning your summer 2024 outfits with jewelry that’ll have you planning your next beach trip. Our Casey freshwater pearl bracelet puts a bohemian twist on the timeless classic. You can embrace the beachy vibes of the bohemian trend by stacking two or three Casey bracelets together.

4. Statement Rings

2024 is the year of the statement ring. It’s a trend that’s evolved from our collective love of ring stacks. While you might be thinking about cocktail rings, a statement ring can be anything bigger than a traditional gold band.

Our Lennox hammered ring is an everyday statement piece for the minimalist at heart. Want something with a vintage feel? Our Amber signet ring can be worn solo or stacked with your favorite dainty rings.

5. Single Pendant

Not every 2024 jewelry trend is about making a statement. Sometimes, less is more. While layering jewelry has made a major comeback for 2024, don’t underestimate the power of a single pendant. The classic pendant is one of the biggest jewelry trends from the spring/summer 2024 runway and works for every occasion.

A classic single pendant is the only necklace you need to take you from a day at the office to date night with your girlfriends. The Leighton necklace is our budget-friendly take on the timeless diamond necklace, adding a little sparkle to every outfit.

6. Animal Kingdom

Animals were everywhere you looked on the runway for spring/summer 2024. While we’re used to seeing animal prints in fashion, the animal kingdom is making its way into jewelry trends. We saw everything from butterflies to snakes and cow-inspired jewelry heading down the runway. Our Shark tooth earrings are a subtle nod to the King of the ocean.

7. Cuff Earrings

2024 is the year of the earring cuff. We’ve seen this trend explode in recent years as the earring layering becomes more popular with everyone opting for an extra piercing or two. An earring cuff adds an ultra-luxe feel to even the simplest little black dress. Our Whitley ear cuff is the perfect piece for building your go-to earscape and doesn’t require a piercing. Simply slide it onto your ear and pinch it to fit comfortably.

8. Layers on Layers

Every year, another Y2K jewelry trend makes a major comeback. 2024 is reviving the classic necklace-on-necklace look with luxury fashion brands like Burberry, Chanel, and Louis Vuitton showcasing long layered necklaces. You can build your own necklace stack or keep it simple with our Zoe necklace for a minimalistic take on the trend. 

The secret to recreating this 2024 jewelry trend is to mix and match the lengths of your necklaces for a layered look. Our Emerson evil eye chain necklace is a versatile length for wearing with chokers or longer pendants.

9. Quiet Luxury

Quiet luxury is a trend we saw everywhere in 2023, thanks to shows like Succession making ‘stealth wealth’ one of the biggest buzzwords in the fashion industry. You don’t need Shiv Roy’s bank account to add a touch of quiet luxury to your jewelry box.

This trend is all about timeless functionality, focusing on silhouettes and styles that are minimalistic and understated in their luxury. It’s all the classic jewelry you know and love – from the tennis bracelet to subtle gold studs – with a contemporary update. Our Rylan baguette bracelet and Monroe stud earrings capture the stylish subtlety that makes the ‘quiet luxury’ trend so appealing.

10. Sparkly Hoops

The classic gold hoop is getting an upgrade for 2024 with a little sparkle. Diamond hoops are one jewelry trend you’ll want to invest in this year. They’re a small, but mighty accessory that can be worn casually or elevated for even the most formal occasion. It’s all about how you style your sparkly hoops, whether you’re wearing a leather jacket or a cocktail dress. The Axel hoop earrings are the style we’ll be reaching for when we need a little extra sparkle.
