We Are All Obsessed with Beaded Necklaces

It should be called a new fad: beads are definitely the new trend of the spring. It’s time to have fun because there is no room for boredom this season. The '90s and Y2K revivals have reinvigorated the fashion world with a new dose of energy, lightness, optimism, bright hues, and overall joie de vivre. First, it was the return of pop rings, next feathers, glitter, and fluorescents rejoined the runway, then low-waisted flares outmatched skinny jeans, and now the beaded necklaces you made during your childhood trips to summer camp are back to bring some joy into your wardrobe.

While there's no shortage of DIY versions, while smaller jewelry brands really started the trend by creating nostalgic, customizable pieces, major houses like Bottega Veneta and Balenciaga have created their own highly branded and expensive versions as well. 

Celebrities and influencers have gravitated towards beaded necklaces in recent months to add a touch of spunkiness to their outfits, from Dua Lipa to the soft boy himself, Harry Styles, who wore his Eliou necklace in his "Golden" music video.
