Jewelry adds sparkle and style to your outfit any time of year, but during the winter, you might struggle to choose the right pieces to work with your heavier clothing. While some pieces never go out of style no matter the season, when you’re accessorizing in the winter, keep these trends in mind. 

5 Jewelry Trends for Winter 

1. Stud Earrings 

Dramatic dangle earrings are ideal in the summer, but when the weather gets colder and you’re wearing bulky sweaters, scarves, and hats, they can get tangled. Instead, opt for simple studs or smaller dangles that won’t get caught in your turtleneck or cardigan.

2. Stacked Rings

Although statement rings have been popular for several years, they aren’t ideal for winter. It’s almost impossible to wear gloves or mittens over a chunky ring, and you don't want to snag your scarf, sweater or winter tights on your ring. Instead, simple flat rings are a better option. Try stacking several, in varying styles, for a contemporary look.

3. Hearts

Winter is a romantic season, and heart-shaped jewelry is also fashionable this time of year. Pair a delicate heart pendant with a scoop or V-neck top, or pop in a pair of heart-shaped stud earring to give your outfit some flair. 

4. Brooches

Winter is the ideal time to add a fanciful brooch to your coat. Even the most basic wool winter coat can get a stylish upgrade with a sparkling pin. With so many different options at different price points, you can opt for whimsical, elegant, or anything in between, and change the pin as often as you want to match your outfit and mood. 

5. Chokers

Choker-style necklaces continue to be on-trend, and they are ideal for winter, as they won’t get caught in your clothing but can still be seen when you wear a coat or scarf. Opt for chokers made with ribbon, lace, or other non-metal materials so they won't get cold when you head outside.
