Playful Jewelry Makes You Feel Like a Kid

Jewelry should never make you feel stodgy and uptight. Instead, it should be fun, playful and youthful – making you feel good and lifting your spirits every time you wear it. This season, designers are experimenting with bright colors, durable plastics and fun designs that will have you wondering if you're a kid again.

Toy inspired necklaces are especially hot right now. Try incorporating a rainbow colored necklace in an eye-catching color such as hot pink, aqua, magenta or tangerine. Look fashion forward by mixing colors with metallics. For an office-friendly look, try colored plastic beaded necklaces, which look great with worn with a brightly hued and tailored blouse in a contrasting color. For something a little more subtle, mix clear plastic and pastel beads.

If you love fun fabulous bracelets, then consider piling colorful charms onto a bracelet that you already own. Go as funky as you like, by mixing acrylic, resin, glass and plastic for a unique and stylish accessory that expresses your personality. If you prefer the look of a bangle bracelet, then choose one that incorporates girlie colors like fuchsia and baby pink.

If you're still a kid at heart, but you prefer to do things a little low key, then try adding a fun pendant necklace to your look. Edible-inspired designs such as ice cream cones, cupcakes and lollypops in sterling silver and encrusted rhinestones add a youthful vibe to any outfit. Playful pendants with ladybugs, butterflies and flowers can add just the right touch to a casual dress.

With festive fun baubles adorning your neck and wrist, you're sure to get noticed. But more importantly, you'll feel great in these lighthearted accessories that make your outfit and your mood a little more cheerful. So the next time you're thinking about throwing on the same ole jewelry, think outside of your jewelry box, and go for a toy-inspired piece instead.
