    Dedicated maximalists will be happy to learn that summer 2025’s jewelry trends are rooted in whimsy. While many fashion brands still favor classic staples—like sleek gold hoops, delicate pearl earrings, and simple tennis bracelets—they are also trying out fun pieces that have a “look at me” vibe.

    J.Crew and Anthropologie are exploring the fisherman aesthetic with nautical-inspired pieces decorated with shiny seashells and sardines. Mango, Shashi, and Cos are showcasing eye-catching designs through beaded bracelets and necklaces, two-tone jewelry, and sculptural cuffs that look like they belong in a modern museum. Meanwhile, Jenny Bird and Madewell are taking a nostalgic approach to jewelry with vintage styles like ‘90s cord necklaces and Y2K anklets.

    When hot temperatures make outfit styling tough, these jewelry trends will help you stand out easily. Ahead, find 18 pieces sure to earn endless compliments. Oh, and did I mention that every item below is under $200? You’re welcome.
