Summer Style

The calendar loosens its grip somewhere around the first warm week. Summer asks less of you — fewer layers, longer evenings, a heat that takes the hurry out of things. So wear the jewelry that asks just as little: warm gold, cool silver, a diamond for the nights that go long. What follows is a short list for exactly that — the pieces worth reaching for every day of it.

Full Circle

Summer Hoops

Hoops go on without a second thought and stay right all day — which is what makes them the summer earring. Wear one oversized gold pair on their own, or stack several small ones and let gold and silver mix. Auvere makes them in both metals across a full range of sizes, micro to XL, so the scale is yours to set.

Out of the Blue

Blue Note

Turquoise belongs to this season the way no other stone does, and it asks for gold. The Byzantium 24K Ring Turquoise sets six bezeled turquoise cabochons in 24 karat gold, and the warmth of the metal deepens the blue-green of every stone. Stack the Stoned Gold Turquoise Bangles beside it — slender rounds of gold with facing cabochon points that wear as well alone as they do together. Against white linen or a vivid print, the color does exactly enough.

Neutral Territory

Lighten Up

Neutrals take over the closet this time of year — cream, sand, linen in every weight — and they hand gold its best backdrop. The Praying Mantis Diamond Ring Wide anchors the palest palette with real weight and the textured sparkle of pave set diamonds. The Conic Mobile Diamond Earrings, in solid 22 karat gold with pave set diamonds, bring movement to bare shoulders and pulled-back hair. Where you want brilliance with the warmth, the Diamond Drops Bracelet answers. The Golden Pod Necklaces, in polished or satin 22 karat gold, finish a neckline without crowding it, and the Double Link Bracelet Light does the same for a bare wrist.

Silver Breeze

Cool Metal

Sterling silver runs cool when the season runs warm, and that contrast is the whole argument for it. Against bright white or bare skin, the flash is immediate. The Double Link Necklace Heavy and Double Link Bracelet Heavy carry real weight in sculptural links that ask for nothing else around them. Layer in the large Captured Cone Amulet & Chain Silver / Large in silver for dimension — geometry that reads light at any scale. And the Lunar Cuff Silver finishes the ear with no piercing required.

Diamonds at Night

The evenings stretch longest this time of year, and diamonds belong to them. A point of light against the dark is the whole logic of the night sky — the same logic, worn close. The Ice Cream Cone Diamond Earrings Large top cones of 22 karat gold with full scoops of pavé diamonds; the name plays, the light doesn't. The Spaced Out Hexa Ring sets diamonds into an open hexagon of 22 karat gold. Run the Double Moon, Clean Cut, and Diamond Ear Cuffs along the ear, and let the Celestial Star Necklace finish the look it names.
