Summer Glow-Up With Colour Trends And Coloured Gemstones
1. Aquamarine For The Colour Skylight
Pantone describes this as “a pure and watery cleansing aqua”
Is there any other colour that screams summer, like pastel blue? We don’t think so!
Perhaps the coolest colour trend of summer 2024, the Skylight is reminiscent of restless waves at the beach, backyard pools and cloudless summer skies. The icy-blue shade evokes calmness and tranquility and appeals to even neutral-tone lovers. And given that Mermaidcore is having a major moment, now would be the best time to hop on the trend with some aquamarine jewellery pieces.
You can shop unique aquamarine rings and bracelets to level up your stacking game or even treat yourself to earrings and pendants for an uber-cool summer glow-up!

5. Amethyst For The Colour Grey Lilac
Pantone describes this as “a dreamy and ethereal lilac infused grey”
Long before Taylor Swift put us all under a hypnotic purple spell with her “Lavender Haze” music video, Pantone had predicted Grey Lilac would be the next big thing for summer 2024.
There’s something alluring about this muted shade of purple, It’s feminine, subtle yet powerful and has a calming effect. And since it also ties in with the Y2K aesthetic trend (which is still going strong, BTW), investing in some pretty purple jewels like amethysts is something we’d recommend.
Besides adding a regal touch to your outfits, amethyst jewellery is believed to help calm your mind and enhance your intuition. Pretty great, huh?
