Celeste's Favorite Summer Jewelry Trend

I've noticed a jewelry trend for summer while scrolling through social media. By no means is it a new trend, but I feel like I'm seeing it everywhere. The style reminds me of the crafty summer camp jewelry of my tween and teen years. It evokes memories of things you might have made or worn in your youth.... something from camp to swim practice and on summer breaks. These fun and nostalgic pieces suddenly appeared (at least for me) once Memorial Day hit and warmer weather was here. I love the super cute and smiley face styles that have me going back in my mind. They make me happy and think of more innocent times. 

Everyone from Bottega Veneta and Balenciaga to brands like Susan Alexander are doing it. I've seen everything from hearts, stars, and smiley faces to necklaces made from tiny colored beads fashioned in flowers. I'm always game for fun jewelry... not sure I'd spend Balenciaga-type prices on some of these styles, but I definitely had to have some in the store. Here are some of my fun finds. And yes, I bought many for myself as well.
