Bridal Jewelry Trends 2008: Color

A Touch of Color

Whether it's something blue, a touch of champagne to coordinate with a gown, or fuchsia - just because it's your favorite color - add color and personality to your bridal jewelry! Gone are the days when only pearls or clear crystals were "bridal". Adding color to your jewelry is an excellent way to bring out your own personal style on your wedding day.

Many bridal jewelry designers will customize pieces for you. Swarovski crystals are available in any shade you can imagine, not to mention the gorgeous natural hues of gemstones and freshwater pearls.

And don't forget about black! A black crystal beaded necklace can be a very bold and dramatic statement.

Perhaps best of all, colored bridal jewelry can be worn very easily after the wedding with anything from a little black dress to jeans.
