1980s Current Vintage Jewelry Trends

Jewelry from the 1980s was a fun combination of big, bold, and chunky often layered pieces. Two tone jewelry was popular; silver and gold worked together whether it be sterling silver with gold or costume silver-tone with gold-tone jewelry. Hoop earrings were big and rhinestones were bigger! There were large chain necklaces and layered chain necklaces. Pearls and chunky faux pearls were popular and added glamour to the layered look. Many of the earrings were clip-on due to the weight of the larger than life earrings. And if you have huge dangle post earrings, you can find earring backs that are for heavier earrings (to help distribute the load and keep the earlobe from drooping). Many vintage jewelry collectors have a large collection. The 80s vintage trend is a great reason to wear layers of chains with big bold pieces.
