Silver Jewelry Has Entered the Chat—28 Items I'm Obsessing Over
As a Latina woman who loves nothing more than a great accessory, I can't exactly tell you silver was my go-to color before this year. All of the family heirlooms I wear and jewelry I've collected over the years are gold, so to suddenly become a silver advocate was mind-boggling, to say the least. I'll maintain this, though: I think I made the right choice, especially considering this year's unexpected accessory trend.
Over the last few months, I've noticed more and more of my favorite designers and creators making the switch from team gold to team silver. After seeing Bottega Veneta's viral Drop Earrings on nearly every single celebrity, the only one who made me truly want to buy them was Kylie Jenner, and sure enough, she was the only one who opted for the silver version. Let's just say I'm easily influenced.
While I've been waiting for them to arrive at my doorstep, I've been scouring the internet for the best pieces of silver jewelry—from ear cuffs to pendant necklaces—that make me feel like a chic Parisian. While gold jewelry will always have a time and place in my heart, silver is reigning supreme right now. And if you're not convinced after scrolling through these 28 incredible picks, I won't be surprised if you come to switch sides later on.
Although I'm not a person who loves labels, these Gucci earrings are reminding me of Tom Ford's sleek '90s aesthetic of the brand—always a plus in my eyes.
I layered two silver cuffs over a long-sleeve silk dress the other day, and I don't think I can ever go back.
The size of these earrings means they're perfect for stacking on top of each other.
My silver-jewelry-only look at Coachella is being planned out now that I've fawned over this stacked rocker-style chain.
I have these huggies in gold and wear them nearly every day, but I'm itching for the silver colorway thanks to spring's unexpected jewelry trend.
If you're looking for an entry-level piece of fine jewelry, this silver necklace and diamond pendant from Blue Nile will go with nearly every outfit.
High-key obsessed with how expensive this tennis bracelet looks while being only $100.
Frasier Sterling makes the best low-cost, high-joy jewelry for any occasion.
If you're into Gen Z's ironic-dressing aesthetic, opt for a phrase like "girl boss" or "slay" instead of your name.
A silver Rolex may be a higher investment, but since 2023 is the year of the watch, I'd think twice about writing off this classic.
I can totally see you wearing this with a bright-red top—fashion's favorite color at the moment.
