Nowadays, when looking good is so important, you must keep in touch with the latest fashion trends. Looking good is not only about turning heads, but more importantly it is about feeling confident regarding your appearance. So, if your statement of style is outdated, while others at your office or at a party are looking chic, then you might well end up looking like a square peg in a round hole. Even the jewelry you wear has to be in sync with the times. So, read on to find out about the latest winter jewelry trends.

What's 'In'?
Winter jewelry trends are mainly reflecting bold asymmetrical designs with lots of texture. The color inspirations are mainly drawn from nature. For example, wood with grainy texture is being used to make beads while stones such as agate are in use for visual adornment. Thus although different components are being used, the focus is on color and texture.

Metal jewelry is in vogue too. Chunky and even hammered pieces are really hot this season. White metals are okay, but yellow metals take the cake as far as current trends are concerned.

To help you understand winter jewelry trends better, let's have a look at the different types of jewelry and what's hot in each segment.

Necklaces
The crowning glory of your appearance is your necklace. In order to pick a trendy necklace, you should know that layered necklaces have been replaced by more compact designs this winter. Although some of the necklaces worn by celebrities might seem a bit too heavy, you can be sure that they are 'in'. You can take a look at a stacked cube necklace style to get an idea of the type of designs that will rule this season.

Bracelets
Trends in bracelets and bangles generally are not very fickle, which means you don't have to buy wrist jewelry every season! Even this winter, bangles made from wood and resins continue to be popular. The ones embellished with beads, metals and other colorful components can also be a good investment for you. In fact, richly colored bracelets set with metals and faux gems fall into the 'must buy' category this season.

You might even notice that popular necklace styles are visible in bracelet trends too!

Earrings
The chandelier earrings are just right for parties and other events, where you have to 'dress-up', this winter. Delicate designs look good, without being a burden for your earlobes. Earring styles too have remained pretty much unchanged from past seasons and so most of the ones you own might be wearable this season too. Unless you are still stuck with some retro styles, you can wear your earrings without worry!

Plain diamond studs are in vogue as usual and you must own a pair if you are into fine jewelry. Also, do not forget the evergreen hoop-earrings! You can try out popular styles such as hammered hoops or other thin metal hoops.

Follow these winter-jewelry trends and you'll find that looking good was never so easy!
