Trend spotting

For every bride, her wedding trousseau is considered incomplete without that perfect jewellery set that makes her look priceless on her big day. So what's shimmering this season? Bling It On explores: The best friend: This year diamonds have made a comeback as women are now experimenting with contemporary and unique designs. The Indian bride is now open to using diamonds and platinum in her wedding trousseau as opposed to gold. And with the diamond market offering more options like coloured stones, they have become better than a best friend for today's girls! Old is 'gold': Although contemporary designs are in vogue, a touch of tradition always adds a charm. What can be more touching than being able to wear a timeless piece from your grandma's collection? Royal pearls: Pearls always manage to look regal, and if you want to keep it simple, nothing works like a beautiful pendant held together with a string of pearls. "Pearl jewellery mostly appeals to women who love traditional jewellery as well as to those who have an 'uber' lifestyle. With changing trends, pearls are now also beautifully combined with diamonds to make really exquisite jewellery," says Prasanna Joshi, GM, LaguBandhu. Sparkle — that doesn’t cost a bomb!: Crystals are vibrant gemstones which can be set easily with all kinds of metals. They have a brilliant cut and shine that can easily compete with diamonds. And if you want to stick to a modest budget without compromising on the sparkle, Swarvoski is the way to go!
