Celebrities are Swapping Their Diamonds For the Stone Necklace Trend

Sorry diamonds, but there’s a new jewellery trend that’s latching on to the necks of the chicest celebrities this season. Less ostentatious and far more wearable day-to-day, stone necklaces are the fresh and playful accessory the most-stylish stars are reaching for right now.

With a boho-infused energy, this pretty necklace trend adds a relaxed element to an outfit in a way that few other jewels could. Already a mainstay in the wardrobes of fashionable famous people, I’ve spotted Nicole Richie and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley take to the trend in recent weeks, styling them with evening outfits and relaxed day-time looks alike.

Wearing a gold chocker necklace with a vivid red stone attached, Richie added a subtle flush of colour to her otherwise all-black ensemble in the chicest way last week. A timeless accessory that matched Richie’s laid-back personality, the growing jewellery trend added a subtle point of friction to her polished evening look, creating an interesting ensemble that felt elevated yet uncomplicated.

Another new fan of the emerging accessory, I spotted Huntington-Whiteley style a pendant stone necklace with white roll-neck top and horseshoe jeans whilst away in Spain last week. Letting her long pendant necklace drape over her white top, the model’s necklace added a point of interest to her outfit, without overwhelming her look.

Available in a wide range of colours, cuts and sizes, each stone necklace is packed with plenty of character. Whilst I like to look out for these kind of jewels in vintage shops and markets, there’s a whole host of compelling versions cropping up across high street and designer brands.
