THE BLOSSOMING OF HAPPINESS (The Classic Trend)

Swarovski Crystal New Innovations Spring/Summer 2016 Jewelry, Color and Fashion Trends

Swarovski_Crystal_New_Innovations_Spring_Summer_2016_The_Blossming_of_Happiness

Spring has long been a metaphor for renewal, with new growth appearing even after the harshest winters. This is reflected in floral pastels, with a dreamy new Blush Rose color reminiscent of fancy pink diamonds, mixed with mellow green, noble burgundy and pale primrose yellow, with cool steel blue adding an elegant twist.

Swarovski_Color_Blush_Rose

Pink is a Key Color Trend for Spring/Summer 2016

The new Swarovski color Blush Rose is an important development according to the color trend forecasts, which name pink as the key color for the coming season. In color psychology, pink is a sigh of hope. It is a positive color and inspiring warm and comforting feelings and a sense of a silver lining on the horizon. With Blush Rose, Swarovski introduces its own graceful, soft and dreamy, dusty pink hue that is reminiscent of highly prized fancy pink diamonds.

Swarovski Crystal Blush Rose New Color Spring Summer 2016 Innovations

Color Description and Pairing

Blush Rose creates a modern and sophisticated classic look with a mellow, feminine touch. Blush Rose is a universal, feminine color that can beautifully soften a neutral or gray color palette, tone down juicy summer bright, and lighten up dense and rich golden or dark hues.

Its sophisticated radiance freshens up foggy opals and patina crystals. This very feminine hue symbolizing love, harmony, and joy for life – can be easily be combined both with warmer and cooler tones, which makes it the perfect addition to the new trend color palette.

New_Swarovski_Crystal_Lacquer_Pastel_effects

Pastel Colors are a Predominant Color Trend for the Season

With pastel being the “it”-color of the season, Swarovski offers an entirely new premium coating palette, and with it a fresh take on pastel colors in cut crystal. The delicate powdery colors of the Pastel Crystal LacquerPRO effect answer the continuing trend for vintage and washed-out looks. Their subtle color range freshens up retro-inspired designs and adds a feminine touch to timeless classics.

Swarovski_crystal_pastel_effects_New_Innovations_Spring_Summer_2016

Color Description and Pairing

A tender color palette if there ever was one, the new Pastel Crystal LacquerPRO effects (Crystal Powder Yellow, Crystal Powder Green, Crystal Powder Rose, and Crystal Powder Blue, Crystal Powder Grey) represent the strong new design direction of softer, opalescent hues, while at the same time offering a more modern interpretation of the pastel classic – and an entirely new premium coating within the Swarovski assortment!

Subtly elegant with a hint of nostalgia, sugary sweet yet with a modern update due to the powder finish – the Pastel Crystal LacquerPRO effect palette evokes soft pop, retro-inspired trends, and filigree designs predestined for spring.

The pastel accents of the Pastel LacquerPRO Effect subtly offset the bright summery crystals, creating a bold contrast between matt and shine. Powdery hues, both in crystal and pearls, are perfect for washed-out and sun-bleached pastel palettes, and also add a modern touch to monochromatic, tone-on-tone color combinations.

 Swarovski_Floral_jewelry

Continuing Classic Trends

 Classic designs are updated with geometric simplicity: origami-inspired effects are an important design component, with varied sizes of precise modular crystal shapes mirroring the complexity of floral anatomy.

Swarovski_4785-Crystal_Luminous_Green

Storytelling and meaningful consumption have become important purchase drivers. Providing an ideal base for nature-inspired patterns, the traditional symbolism of the new Clover Fancy Stone offers both a charming jewelry component and talisman in one. The Clover Fancy Stone represents a timeless, instantly recognizable symbol of good fortune. It is a cheerful addition to sophisticated classic styles with a modern twist – from playfully small everyday accessories to large statement evening attire.

Magnificent Marsala ~ 5 Inspiring Swarovski Crystal Jewelry Designs for the Stylist in You!

Marsala Pantone Color of the Year 2015

(Color Love – Pantone Marsala by suelibertiny on Polyvore)

My new color crush is emphatically, marvelous Marsala!

I adore this color, not only because it’s the color of the year, but because it provides a versatile platform for which so many complementary colors can emerge from, such as deeper or lighter red colors, as well as purple or pinkish – salmon hues. This intoxicating tone also has the added benefit of pairing incredibly well with standard colors, such as gold, silver, white and black.

You just can’t go wrong with the multi-talented Marsala!

Swarovski Marsala Ruby and Gold Bracelet

Bracelet designed by Fineheart handmade jewelry on Etsy.

This gorgeous Swarovski Crystal bracelet features the 5520 Graphic beads in Ruby along with charming accents of 5020 Helix Beads in Crystal Golden Shadow. These color combinations work remarkably well with the 14K gold wire and clasp, creating a stately, sophisticated and high-end piece.

Swarovski Crystal Pearl Bordeaux Bracelet with silver pave beads

This bracelet design was created by DebraAnnCreations found on her Etsy page.

This beautifully simple yet very elegant Swarovski Bordeaux Pearl bracelet is accentuated with silver crystal pave beads. The silver really pops against the rich maroon-like red pearls.

 Marsala pearl and crystal necklace with silver tones

This twisted pearl and crystal necklace was created by JoyKatharine found on her Etsy site.

The berry-like tones found in Marsala pairs exceptionally well with silver hues as well. This multi-stranded Burgundy, Blackberry and Light Grey Swarovski Pearl necklace incorporates a touch of sparkle creating a youthful, energetic look that is fashionably chic. These are not Swarovski crystals, so to make this more of a luxurious, timeless piece, incorporate Swarovski Beads in light to medium grey tones such as Crystal Silver Shade, Crystal Satin or Black Diamond.

Swarovski Crystal Ruby, Padparadascha and Light Rose Earrings

These earrings were designed by Crystal Victoria found on her Flicker page.

Similar Marsala colors include Siam and Ruby which coalesce especially well with soft pink and salmon-like hues such as Light Rose and Padparadscha found in these lovely Swarovski Crystal Bicone earrings. A natural complimentary tone to tie these influences together is gold or rose-gold finishes.

 Swarovski Marsala Burgundy Emerald Cut Necklace

This necklace was made by BeYourselfJewelry and found on their Etsy page.

This stunning necklace is so captivating, it’s a standalone Burgundy beauty!

The Swarovski 4627-27 x 18.5mm Emerald Cut Fancy Stone boasts a brilliantly robust and earthy red wine color. This elegant style radiates an exquisite faceting structure that is graceful and timeless.
