Mystique Oscar Style with Natalie Portman
As we mentioned in the Oscars Best Dressed post on Monday, we thought Natalie Portman nailed her red carpet look. She expressed her own personal style. At Mystique we love to help you create your signature style – one that tells a story about who you are and makes a mark!
Mystique has been helping people create their signature styles with the latest in trends for more than 29 years. Let us help you create your own signature style – something new that is all about you!
We all want to be unique and to claim our place. To be open and honest with our beliefs and feelings. We don’t want our rings, necklaces, bracelets, or any other piece of jewelry to be anything other than a symbol of who we are. That is unique and that is Mystique.
The jewelry trends today follow an expression of life in 2020. In addition to the below trends, we’re also seeing a lot of juxtaposing color, ultra-large link chains, a bohemian take on antique and vintage jewelry, hoops in every incarnation, modernized pearls, sea and sand inspired jewels, and sculptural/tribal updates.
1. Neo-Parisian: Classic Parisian jewelry dominated the runways, with layers of gold chains, cameo rings and pearls, whether small and subtle or worn overstated, en masse. This season, there was a sense of daring in the air, which inspired bold reinventions of the Parisian staples. The below gold choker holds pendant slides in pearls and diamonds from designer Lexi Maz at Mystique.
2. Chokers: Chokers are back for Spring 2020. I’m not talking about the fine delicate stackable chokers of a few seasons ago, which continue to be worn as layering staples. These are statement chokers –hard powerful silhouettes that curve around the neck in gold. They also translate into choker length necklaces that are strong in shape but flexible with multiple dangles accenting the entire piece. It’s a look which says “go bold or go home.”
Do you have a favorite gold necklace or a ring filled with diamonds from your grandmother? Let Mystique create a new bold statement necklace for you.
This handmade hammered gold open link necklace holds a toggle to add cool pendant enhancers. Carved Buddha, moonstone and Tahitian pearls available at Mystique.
3. Going Long: If you prefer a languid sexy long necklace that dips and drapes, there are myriad of styles – lariat, bolo, and elongated Y-necklaces – that will provide you with the look you want. Many of these can also do double duty and get wrapped around the wrist multiple times.
4. The One: After seasons of seeing many studs and other styles, we are moving back to finding the one. These are available in sculptural, geometric, dangling, and hoop silhouettes. But don’t let that stop your ear party…you can also keep it going on the other lobe.
