The Hottest Spring 2024 Jewelry Trends to Wear Right This Very Minute

When I tell you that you are not ready to behold the beauty that is this spring’s jewelry trends, I really mean it. The limit of chicness does not exist. Although I do have to warn all the people out there who love their delicate little studs and small gold chains that this is not that kind of trend season. This is a smack-you-in-the-face-with-your-bold-baubles new era. And, personally, I’m here for it.

In other words, spring jewelry is all about bold, bold, bold bling. I’m talking double-take-inducing cuffs (please see the most breathtaking bangles that look like grasping hands down below!!!), the chunkiest of chokers, and sweet animal-form-inspired pieces that are basically wearable art.

By the way, your dad will be happy, because watches are back. I’m not saying you have to be on time now, but you’ll at least know the time (and how late you are to absolutely everything). Just me? I’ll try to be better, I swear!

Anyway, there’s more going on in jewelry for spring 2024, so I do advise you to keep scrolling. You’ll see so many drool-worthy things, and I love that for you! Then, because I know you love ~fashun~, you might want to also check out the rest of our spring 2024 trend report, including all the must-have clothing, bags, and shoes you need to get your hands on now.

It’s the ciiiircle of lifeeeee!!! And it moves us all!!!…And it inspires jewelry makers around the world, too, apparently. Whether it’s butterflies, little frogs, or fishies, designers have been busy transforming wildlife into the prettiest jewelry you’ve ever seen. These pieces honestly belong in a museum (and your jewelry box, ofc).

Yes, watches are having their moment in the sun! And while I love my sMaRt WaTcH as much as the next gal, I am convinced I need to create the stacked gold analog situation seen above. Can you even? I am begging some know-nothing loser to ask me why I need to wear so many watches at once just so I can yell, “It’s fashion—look it up!” right in his face. Designers don’t want us to just glance at the time and move on. Instead, we must become the time. So it is written.

I know, you’re thinking, Excuse me, is it 2015? but I promise these are not the same chokers you remember from those questionable Coachella fashion years. These are statement chokers. Chunky chokers! Chokers that have us (me) by the neck! Do you even see the one below that’s styled with a balloon bra? Exactly! I’ll take no further questions at this time.

I simply can’t deal with the hand cuffs, pictured above—they’re too chic! In fact, they’re the perfect embodiment of the spring 2024 cuff situation. As in, no simple bangle will do. It has to be more! It has to make you think!

While we’re on the topic of cuffs, I’m not just talking about ones for your wrists. Fashion wants you to wear ’em all over your upper arms too. Yep, like that Princess Leia spiral style seen above. Yes, Star Wars! Yes, fashion!
