Summer provides us with the perfect opportunity to have some fun with our style choices, especially when it comes to accessories. While there are plenty of cool accessories trends to dabble in, I’m honing in on beaded necklaces—a playful trend that I’m spotting on fashion people everywhere right now. Beaded necklaces are one of the coolest ways to amp up basic tanks, tees, and dresses. A colorful beaded necklace can take your outfit from zero to 100 in an instant, and the best part is that there are so many great options out there for every budget.
Below, I’m sharing my absolute favorites. Whether it’s a statement-making piece from Éliou or a pretty find from J.Crew, these eye-catching necklaces are guaranteed to incite all the compliments this summer.
