Gunderson’s Top Trends of 2021

-the gold chain

A gold chain may be the most versatile piece you own. Some choose to go heavy, others prefer something lighter-- or with a pendant attached. The best thing about a gold chain is that there is no bad way to wear it. Our current favorite fit is layering several chains together: mixing textures and weights for automatic attention to your neckline. There are no wrong answers; mix, match, and be creative!

-the vintage statement piece

Some of us appreciate vintage jewelry and some just don’t. And that’s okay! If you’re looking to dip your toes in the water, seek out a statement piece or two. Things like a great brooch or funky ring can add a lot of panache without dominating your whole look. Mastering rotating a few vintage pieces in-and-out of your routine can elevate your look from stylish to trend setter.

-the bracelet

Like many of you, we’re lost without our Apple Watch. In fact, many of us ‘double-up’ at work; our trusty Watch on one wrist and a traditional timepiece on the other. When off-duty, we miss having our ‘other’ wrist occupied. We’ve found several favorite bracelets to hold that space. Our favorites right now are from Hulchi Belluni. PS—they’re even stretchy!

-the talisman

Jewelry does not have to be all about big bling.  Pieces that are gifted (or self-purchased—hint, hint) to commemorate a specific life event will invoke those same jubilant emotions every time you put it on. Designers are picking up on this trend by offering pieces engraved with empowering messages or tapping into the powers of your astrological sign.

From the Gunderson’s family to yours, Happy New Year!
