Of all the styles to blow up this year, religious jewelry was probably one of the most unexpected. Religious jewelry was first considered a micro-trend, typically featured among the jewelry collections of trendsetting French women and Instagram fashion influencers.
Since then, this micro trend has blown up, and is poised to be the fashion jewelry industry’s next big thing. You don’t have to be religious at all to pull this look off, all you need is a creative imagination, and the right eye to find the right piece for your style.
Understanding the Religious Jewelry Trend
Religious jewelry has been around for some time and was always considered one of the main staples of the fashion jewelry world. Typically taking the shape of a cross or religious medallion, these pieces were worn as a symbol of faith.
With that being said, the latest religious jewelry trend has been more of a focus on fashion than faith. Many who have adopted this look into their style repertoire have used the religious necklace as a foundation piece to be layered upon with other necklace pieces.
These pieces are often made of yellow gold and on occasion are adorned in diamonds, which is the case for some of the religious pieces by Parade. That said, the religious necklace isn’t the only Sunday’s-best item being adopted by modern day trendsetters.
Joining the Wave of Religious Jewelry Popularity
While the religious pendant or medallion has stolen a large portion of the attention, religious earring pieces are also being wrapped up in the popularity as well. One of the most popular styles is reincorporating the image of the cross into yellow gold charm earrings.
This minimalistic design not only fit in with the religious jewelry trend but also satisfies the fashion world’s fascination with small and layered charms. A pair of religious jewelry earrings would fit well as a part of a larger earring stack and can in many cases bring an entire collection together.
Hopping on the religious jewelry trend is easier than many think, as there are plenty of pieces out there. Vintage pieces tend to succeed over more modernly designed religious jewelry, however, at the end of the day, the style looks its best when the piece is simple and effective.
Designers have long known the importance and power a piece of religious jewelry can have in a jewelry collection. As a result, there are plenty of religious jewelry pieces out there to choose from, all it takes is a good eye and a bit of patience to pull this trendy look together.
