Can you believe summer is here? Hurray! One of the reasons we love this warm weather is that it brings with it bright, cheerful colors. And given the kind of year we’ve had, we’re more than ready to welcome the splash of vibrance into our lives and our wardrobes.

If you like us, are looking to make the most of this amazing season, and look stylish while you’re at it, then here are the five colored gemstones that you need to add to your jewel box ASAP!

• Yellow Sapphire Halo Ring
• Rose Quartz Teardrop Pendant
• Aquamarine Dangling Earrings
• Amethyst Halo Bracelet
• Peridot Cluster Flower Stud Earrings

Yellow Sapphire

Summers are all about basking in the sunshine, so yellow seems like the perfect hue to match the vibe of this season, right? Plus, this color also happens to be one of Pantone’s Color of The Year for 2021, which gives us all the more reasons to add it to our closet. The yellow sapphire is a spectacular gem that’s both gorgeous and eye-catching. It scores 9 out of 10 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, which means it’s highly durable as well. So, if you are looking for the perfect everyday accessory, then a ring with this jewel should do the trick.

Rose Quartz

How about romancing the summer with soft, delicate hues? Feminine and oh-so-pretty, the rose quartz is one of our favorite gems for infusing some elegance into pastel-hued and light-colored summer outfits. Also, this blossomy pink gem radiates an understated charm that will grab attention wherever you go. We highly recommend you opt for a necklace like this if you’re looking for a piece that is timeless and trendy. Here are a few more of our rose quartz stunners.

Icy Aquamarine

From runways to magazines, this serene blue shade is the one hue we have been spotting everywhere. So, how could we not include a gem with this ‘IT’ color on this list? No matter the occasion, aquamarine jewelry will always brighten up any outfit. Its icy blue hue looks especially stunning with white, corals, and even red-colored clothing. So, if you want to brighten and liven up your look this summer (and all other days of the year), we reckon you should get your hands on a pair of aquamarine earrings.

Amethyst

Next up, we have the splendorous amethyst. It’s glamorous and captivating, yes, but we also think that its unconventional hue will infuse peppiness even into the most mundane outfits this summer. When it comes to the amethyst, we say don’t keep it subtle and instead find a piece of jewelry that can match up to the boldness of the ravishing purple gem. A bracelet with this gem, for instance, is guaranteed to make an unforgettable first expression whether you choose to wear it on a date or even a formal event.

Peridot

Our list of top 5 colored gemstones for the summer would be incomplete without the earthy green peridots. Their zesty golden-green shade is perfectly in sync with the nature that surrounds us, and their vibrance doesn’t fail to catch the eye. Plus, this shade of green will work well with summer outfits of any color, be it a pastel-hued summer dress or even a floral printed top. We think a pair of floral studs is the perfect way to showcase the gem’s charm this season.
