What’s a girl without her accessories? Sure, clothes and shoes are the meat but accessories? They are the fine delicate pieces that make an outfit into a delight for the eyes. From head to toe, accessories are the best way for you to give an extra pop to your favorite outfit. In 2011, fashion accessory trends in jewelry are leaning towards pieces that are simple and uncluttered; and some with influences of Southwestern and Steampunk design. You can get in on the trend, here’s how.Be simple on your wrists
Simple bracelets and bangles are great for any 2011 fashion needs. A hammered silver bracelet is a great bracelet to start with. For any bracelet you are considering, wide bands are nice, especially if they have an architectural or artistic twist on them. Also look for bracelets that aren’t wide but are thick, even better if they are in a shape. And never, ever ever forget about having a cuff bracelet or two in your collection of jewelry accessories.
Cover your neck
Last year, eccentric, gigantic and vintage necklace pendants on long necklaces were the thing to do. But this season, chokers are back in vogue. But not the granny-lace crochet things that were popular in the 80s and then 90s. (Seriously, the trend lasted that long.) This time around, choose chokers made from rich materials like gold and silver with influences that come from ethic jewelry you may find in a South American jungle or on a African Sahara. Another trend choice is to go vintage diamonds and pearls.
Get the drop on your ears
Drop earrings are the way to go when it comes to earrings. The longer the better too! The trend gods that be, have foreseen shoulder-length earrings as being the thing to do for fall in 2011. And so far, there are so many takes on the drop earring that you are sure to fine more than a couple to suit your tastes.
