Mejuris Latest Drop Is A Summery Take On The Chunky Jewelry Trend

The chunky jewelry trend just got a playful summer upgrade. On the heels of its chic spring collab with Luar, Mejuri has returned with a colorful collection packed with beachside nostalgia. Drawing inspiration from days spent basking out in the sun with a sweet gelato in hand, the pastel additions to the Charlotte collection are the brand’s latest stackable jewelry in seasonal on-trend shades — without the sticky mess. The drop includes three new styles in four limited-edition shades: lavender, pistachio green, sweet cream, and cappuccino. The new Charlotte Slim Enamel Rings come in the four new sweet shades in addition to standby gold and silver options. The second part of the new extended collection is the Charlotte Bold Hoop Charms. With the same vintage-inspired texture of the Charlotte Bold Hoop Earrings, these babies are itty bitty charms you can lace through a pair of thin gold hoop earrings and stack. It’s like a new summer ‘fit for your beloved gold hoops. The adorable collection is now available in stores and online, with all new pieces priced at exactly $78.

Mejuri’s Signature Charlotte Ring

Mejuri knows how to make everyday jewelry make a statement (just peep its diamond collection), and the Charlotte Gelato rings are no exception. Customers can freely mix and match their favorite designs for a stylish look. The gold vermeil rings are now slimmer and have been dipped in cheerful pastel shades of lavender, cream, pistachio, and cappuccino. You won’t have to worry about the colors fading, as it’s treated with Mejuri’s cold enamel coating.

Mejuri Charlotte Bold Hoops

We know Mejuri enthusiasts are loyal and true to the chunky Charlotte Bold Hoops, but they’ve undergone a teensy transformation for the new season. The once statement-making hoops have returned as cute tiny charms you can loop through your favorite gold hoop earrings for a subtle pop of color. Plus, just like the matching Charlotte rings, you can stack these as well — they’re sold as a pair. Loop them both through one earring or balance it with one on each side. The charms are available in lavender, cream, and pistachio.

7 Handbag Trends To Tote Around In 2023

While the arrival warm-weather fashion doesn’t necessarily need to mean a whole new wardrobe, it could mean it’s time for a new handbag. This essential piece of your next arm party may be available for purchase in all shapes and sizes, but it’s not a decision to be taken lightly. A handbag can be heavy. It can make or break an outfit. It can steal the sartorial spotlight… and not always for the right reasons. So if you’re wondering which purse is best for carrying (on) in the new year, we’re here to keep you on course with the biggest trends of 2023.

From the dystopian styles that have infiltrated runways to the Y2K comeback that has yet to cool down, there’s plenty of fashion fodder to sift through for accessories inspo these days. If you belong to the “pandemic killed the micro purse” camp, we’re happy to report that a scattering of more practical picks is in for the season ahead, along with some other more fanciful trends worth trying out.

Below, we’ve broken down the top seven handbag styles that are bound to be big throughout the year (though not always in the literal sense of the word).

Handbag Trend 2023: Utilitarian Style

“Futuristic utility” is a major style aesthetic this year, and bags are following suit, too. With the rise in popularity of cargo pants and compartment-rich coats comes a variety of practical purses to match. Think: lots of room, zippers, and pockets that are fashioned out of fabrics fit to take on all the elements.

Handbag Trend 2023: Forever Pieces

The combined influence of classic-core (capsule wardrobes, closet staples, etc.) and conscious shopping have many people gravitating toward quality over quantity. And it’s certainly no coincidence that brands have been dipping back into their archives to revive the iconic pieces of the past that have stood the test of time — from Prada’s ’90s-inspired Cleo bag to Gucci’s Jackie purse from 1961. Whether you’re interested in an investment purchase to last a lifetime or seeking out a retro-leaning silhouette, a sleek black shoulder bag is one of the smartest trends to grab onto this season.

Handbag Trend 2023: Top Handles

Ever the lady bag, these particular purses are not for slinging over shoulders or dangling off the elbow. Made to be handled with care, the look-at-me pieces command the constant attention of your fingertips… unless, of course, they come with a longer shoulder strap for days when you’re in a crossbody kind of mood.

Handbag Trend 2023: Styles That Shine

The sartorial energy we are carrying into 2023 is “shine on.” Ever since fashion week made its glittering return to in-person programming, there’s been an undeniably festive feeling across many of its runways. So when it comes to our closets, we’re compelled to keep the optimism party going with all that sparkles: metallic mesh, rhinestones, sequins, and diamanté details galore.

Handbag Trend 2023: Woven Fabrics

If you’ve got a Spidey sense for all things style, you’ll know that woven fabrics make for a web of chic options this season. Shiny leathers, smooth suedes, vegan alternatives, and puffer fabrics are among the range of materials that have been intertwined for your wearing pleasure. Look at it as Bottega Veneta aesthetic fit for any budget.

Handbag Trend 2023: Scoop Tops

The way toward finding your personal style this year might not necessarily come in the form of a straight line, and this extends to handbags. Architectural shapes may be adding structure to the chaos of our closets this season, but some of the edgier iterations of this trend feature a slight curve or dip at their enclosures to add a touch of whimsy to your look.

Handbag Trend 2023: Personality Purses

We’ve said it once, and we’ll say it again: the best trends to try out are the ones uniquely suited to you and your mood. And with the style world fully leaning into kooky collabs and OTT outfits right now, there’s endless opportunity to find the perfect “thing” purse for your personality. Love love? Heart-shaped bags à la Alaïa — spotted all over street style — and Kate Spade have got you covered. New York or nowhere? There’s a bag for that, too.

Midi Skirts Are The Versatile Summer Staple Thatll Upgrade Your Wardrobe

Fitting neatly between the bold, flirty mini skirt and the dramatic, romantic maxi skirt is the comfortable, ultra-flattering midi skirt. Not too short, not too long — it's just right. The mid-calf length skirt style is versatile, a great day-to-night option, and has become a wardrobe staple, especially for the summer. The semi-casual semi-formal bottoms can easily be dressed down with a crop top and white sneakers or dressed up with a blouse and strappy heels.

And some trending styles that should be on your radar include satin, cotton, and denim midi skirts, side slit and wrap midi skirts, and printed and floral midi skirts. So if you’re looking for a versatile piece that'll upgrade your style, consider ordering a couple of midi skirts that you can alternate throughout the summer for different vibes and occasions.

Satin Midi Skirts

Satin is perhaps the first fabric you think of when you picture midi skirts. It's a classic combination that has become a fan favorite for many. The silky skirt is perfect for dinners, parties, and even the office. From colorful and pleated options to neutral and refined ones, satin midi skirts are your go-to for when shorts are too casual and a dress is too formal.

Denim Midi Skirts
