sheds the dark days of winter for the bright blooms of the first flowers. It’s also a time for
people to stash their heavy winter clothes in the back of the closet and slip into fun new
spring fashions.
women in your life. This spring, casual chic is a big trend. The bohemian look is still hot, featuring full skirts and
dresses with lots of movement and fabrics in earthy neutral colors.
Bold, chunky jewelry is the perfect complement to spring fashions, and a great gift for Mom. “Natural materials like
vibrant turquoise and onyx give spring’s hottest looks an organic feeling,” says Natalie Parman, vice president of
merchandising for Jewelry Television. “Combining these stunning stones with other materials like carved beads,
sterling silver and pearls, makes these piece very versatile – they look striking with a cocktail dress, but at home
with a t-shirt and jeans as well.”
Jewelry Television’s easy-to-use Web site is your one-stop shopping resource for Mother’s Day and for the latest
trends in jewelry. You’ll find two spring collections that reflect the trend toward dramatic looks, “Exotic Appeal” and
“Naturally Chic.” The collections include necklaces, earrings, bracelets and rings. The pieces are wonderfully
affordable – nothing costs more than $100, so you can make a big statement for less than you would think. And since
another hot trend this season is to mix and match, and to combine necklaces and bracelets of varying materials and
lengths, these pieces are priced to let you follow the fashion.
For example, pair a long strand of chunky sterling silver turquoise and sponge coral beads in striking shades of aqua
and dusky red with a more delicate chocker style necklace of sterling silver carved turquoise, free form and fancy cut
carnelian and round bead enhanced red onyx with a fanciful dangle of carved turquoise. This combination is ideal for
dressing up a pair of jeans, and also looks smashing with a skirt and blazer for a PTA meeting or the office.
Another versatile piece is the sterling silver, oval cabochon enhanced purple turquoise rope design pendant. This eye-
catching pendant is simple enough to wear to the kids’ soccer game, yet striking enough to wear with a classy cocktail
dress. For a night out on the town, pair it with the matching purple turquoise cuff bracelet. “These are pieces that can
definitely take you from a day look to a night look effortlessly,” says Parman.
The colors in these spring collections range from lovely muted greens and corals to more vibrant purples, blues and
reds, as well as yellows and browns. There’s sure to be something that complements every style and color
preference. But the best part is that Mom will think of you every time she wears her new favorite piece of jewelry.
