If you’re a regular Who What Wear reader, you’re probably well aware of which jewelry trends are currently everywhere and which ones are slowly dying out. Interestingly enough, though, the rise of Instagram-induced trends has influenced which jewelry items people are buying and, consequently, which ones they’re just not shopping for as much anymore.

According to a recent Edited report, jewelry sales for bracelets and rings have gone down by 2.7% and 3.2% respectively over the last year. It seems that earrings and necklaces have quickly taken their place. If you think about the kind of jewelry you first notice on a person, necklaces and earrings are unmissable since they frame your face, so it makes sense that these two categories specifically are having a huge moment. With all the selfies on Instagram, it’s only natural that the necklaces and earrings adorning the wearer will get their fair share of screen time.

Not Buying as Much Anymore: Bracelets and Rings

Buying Instead: Necklaces and Earrings
