2 Diamond Style Jewelry Trends for Summer

It is fun to have some glitz and glam every once and a while and right now we are seeing a lot of sparkling gems lighting up the jewelry counters. Perfect for spring and summer, diamond or diamond like encrusted jewelry is a fun way to sparkle and shine. And it is not for evening wear only.

There are 2 great trends that you can check out with the diamond jewelry. You are going to be able to find these at any nice jewelry counter or online retailer.

Trend #1:

Floral diamond jewelry is one of the hottest trends for summer 2012. We are seeing celebrities everywhere sporting real diamond floral-style earrings, necklace pendants, dangling floral diamond charms off bracelets, diamond floral brooches and of course cluster-style floral rings.

Trend #2:

Diamond religious crosses are always popular with anyone of the Christian faith and this summer season we are seeing Christian celebrities wearing beautiful diamond cross pendants, diamond cross earrings and even religious cross pins that are all decked out in glittery sparkling diamonds!

Of course, most of us are not spend what it takes to buy the real deal, so for us, we can find gorgeous crystals that are pure and clean so they sparkle and shine too. When you take clear, quality crystals or rhinestones and set them in sterling silver, you can get the same look at a fraction of the price.

Lights love to bounce off beautiful diamonds and crystals so why not embrace the hottest trend right now and show your lovely glitter. Match it with your favorite outfit and with a set of gorgeous rhinestone, crystals or diamonds you are going to shine like a celebrity.
