Purple jewelry

Beautiful purple jewelry caught my attention this week. No matter if we’re talking about earrings, rings or bracelets, a violet touch is more than enough to obtain an amazing visual impact.

These exquisite pieces of jewelry are my picks at the end of 2013 and the beginning of 2014. Purple jewelry will be in high demand next year as violet tulip and radiant orchid are among the most prominent hues for spring 2014 in fashion, according to Pantone Color Institute.
