Changing up your everyday jewelry for summer jewelry isn’t something you might ordinarily think of doing—but take my word for it: a pair of big, bright statement earrings can completely elevate an otherwise uninspired outfit.
The pieces below have caught my eye recently, and I’m confident you’ll dig them too. From lucite hoops and bold beading, to friendship necklaces and dainty pendants—these are some of the best summer jewelry pieces to add to your wardrobe.

Jelly Hoops have become a summer accessory staple. They’re super cute and go with nearly everything. My preferred way to style them is with a pair of high-waisted cut-off jean shorts (these are my favorite), a cropped t-shirt, and a pair of classic white sneakers.
