Fashion Trends for 2012 - What's the Hottest This Year

People will always crave for the best and hottest trends in fashion. For 2012, the latest fashion news declares some of the most unique yet desirable trends for fashion setters to relish as they strut down the street. Such trends include skinny jeans, pleated skirts, metallic shades, metallic blazers, and bold accessories.

Skinny Jeans

This piece will always remain stylish since its flatters all body shapes and sizes. Just make sure that it is matched with a beautiful top. Some of the best tops for a pair of skinny jeans are flowing blouses, tunic top, and tuxedo blazers. All this will make anyone in skinny jeans look fabulous. The ideal skinny pair is dark wash type, since it is the most flattering.

Pleated Skirts

Women might want to invest in some pleated skirts in 2012. They must choose one that falls below the knees in order for it to be worn in any type of season. During summer, ladies can wear pleated skirts with sleeveless blouse tops and naked sandals. In winter, they can try on a pair of stockings with the pleated skirt. On the other hand, cashmere sweater that is worn on top of a collar blouse and matched with a simple pleated skirt will make any lady look radiant during winter season.


Metallic Shades

Metallic shades have always been the rage every year. 2012 is certainly not an exception. Some of the most attractive and flattering metallic shades of all types and shapes are silver, brass, rose, and pewter.

Metallic Blazers

Metallic blazers, as well as similar pieces such as metallic tanks and skirts are certainly wise investments, since they can be matched with many clothes and items that are found in any wardrobe.

Anyone can match her metallic blazer with even the simplest t-shirt and pair of denim jeans. She must put on a pair of middle-rise boots and carry a small purse, and she is ready to show off her edgy look. Any metallic skirt matched with bow-tie blouse and black shoes offers a cool look as well.

Bold Accessories

Such accessories are effective and savvy ways of enhancing any look in a radical manner. Women must make sure that they use uniquely bold and vibrant accessories in order to bring out the wow factor in them. Some of the best and most appropriate bold accessories are multi-colored bead necklaces and over sized bracelets. Needless to say, rules in fashion are thrown out of the window when dealing with bold accessories.

Spring 2012 Jewelry Fashion Trends

Spring is here: A time for rebirth, renewal... and new jewelry fashion trends! So what should be on the to-wear list this spring? Jewelry this season is all about bright colors, big and bold statement pieces, and gold, baby, gold. Here's a rundown of the jewelry styles being seen on the runways and red carpets around the world.

Pastel colors are in, especially mint green. You probably have plenty of pastel colored clothing in your closet already. That's a good thing, because soft candy hues and sherbet shades are the tasty colors this season. Mint green is going to be super popular, along with orange and tangerine. Pick up a big bright peach or pink bracelet, oversized rectangular ring or gemstone pendant necklace to go with a matching blouse, handbag, pair of jeans or shoes.

Go mad with mod. What was groovy is now groovy again. Retro 1960s-esque jewelry is back, thanks in part to the return of AMC's super popular Mad Men series. If that's your style, go for Art Deco, geometric shapes such as triangle/chevron earrings or necklaces with circular or square pendants. Clothing company Banana Republic is on the bandwagon. They just launched a Mad Men-inspired spring clothing and jewelry line featuring more than 40 pieces for both men and women, designed in collaboration with Mad Men costume designer Janie Bryant. Groovy, baby, yeah.


Time to wear tribal. Have you ever gone on vacation and bought an exotic piece of tribal jewelry? Great news: Now's the time to wear it. The bigger and more striking, the better. Think layered necklaces with beads, stones, crystals, and fringe or feathered earrings (Thanks again, Steven Tyler). Get really exotic by adding a few carved wooden sticks to your hair. In fact, hair jewelry is back in a big way. Dust off those barrettes and hair bands, and if you're feeling particularly playful, wear a tiara or brooche pinned in place for a night out.

Gold, baby, gold. Over the past decade or so, silver jewelry has reigned, at least with younger people, but yellow gold is making a big comeback in 2012. Gold jewelry is never really out of style - it's a timeless look that says class and elefance. Look for polished satin and shiny hammered gold pieces with woven textured patterns and finishes. To take your diamond ring to the next level, sandwich in between two gold bands. And don't forget about golden stones like beryl and rutilated quartz in a necklace, earrings or pendant.

When you bring in a piece of jewelry or other item to Empire, that property is appraised by a professional jeweler. If you choose to take a loan out or "pawn it" instead of sell it, the item becomes collateral against the loan, and you receive cash against that collateral.
