2021’s Watches and Jewelry Guide

Pearls and timeless elegance make a comeback.

Pearls are making an elegant comeback in 2021. This spring, you can expect to see irregularly-shaped Baroque pearls, as well as layered and mismatched pearls. Think of the simplicity of pearl threader earrings, chain-link pearl bracelets, and colorful beaded necklaces with pearl accents.

Engagement rings are also revisiting the past, with many brides eyeing vintage, rose cut, and two-stone settings over the classic solitaire. Colorful blue and green gemstones are also popular choices for sapphire and emerald stones. The brilliance and delicate design of cushion cut engagement rings are sure to catch attention. Agape Diamonds LLC offers a stunning collection of cushion cut and brilliant-cut diamonds up to 1.5 carats in yellow gold, rose gold, platinum, and white gold settings.

All custom pieces are made with expert craftsmanship, are backed by a Lifetime Warranty, and come with a Certificate of Authenticity. Whether you prefer a classic style diamond engagement ring or want the wow-factor of a cushion cut diamond, the jeweler is ready to deliver outstanding customer service and help you find the perfect ring.

Statement jewelry takes on texture.

Statement jewelry will always have a place, and in 2021, it’s all about texture. Think hardware, chunky chains, hoops, and oversized heavy metal jewelry pieces. Whether it’s necklaces, earrings, or bracelets, the bigger the piece, the better. Colorful necklaces have been growing in popularity, and you’ll also notice geometric and spherical shapes in chokers, bangles, and pendant earrings. The more texture the better, so you’ll see plenty of mixed and crushed metals.

When it comes to the perfect statement piece for men, there’s nothing smarter than an iconic watch. The wristwatch is one of few accessories that men are known to wear. Some of the most popular models include dive watches, dress watches, chronographs, and field watches. There’s a watch for every occasion from the affordable watch with basic functions that can be worn daily, to a special edition luxury watch that sets off your wrist. Timepieces come in a range of styles and price points, but the good news is that you can easily find the best watch for your needs with a few tips from The Quintessential Man.

It’s the year for mixing and matching.

2021 is the year of mixing and matching jewelry. Don’t be afraid to wear mismatched earrings, or even wear just one earring. The single earring has been trending for a while, and this year, you’ll find fun figurative pieces to wear. Think boat pendants, starfish earrings, and seashells, as well as asymmetrical shoulder-length dangles.

Another trending way to mix and match jewelry is with charm bracelets, rings, and necklaces. Think double-layered charm necklaces or chain necklaces with colorful charms. Charm rings are fun to stack on your finger or wear individually on each finger.

Jewelry is one accessory that will never go out of style, even as the trends change over the years.
