Blue and green might be the hot color combination for the year—and especially for summer—but as we transition into fall, a desire for something new takes over.
Our editor-in-chief, Victoria Gomelsky, put it best in her reporting on top fashion trends for autumn: “Barbiecore pink gives way to a vivid crimson hue this fall, reflecting the fashion world’s collective embrace of red as the color of the season.”
That article features a gorgeously dramatic ring by Gyan Jaipur comprising ruby, pink opal, and black onyx—an unexpected, though darkly pleasing, combination. It’s just the color scheme we need to bring summer’s Barbie pink in line with the earthy, more subdued hues we take on in the fall.
In jewelry, this color combo couldn’t be more sensational. Here are 16 enticing examples.
