Summer is calling, ladies! And this is when I unpack my most loved colorful summer dresses and love to show my skin, get tanned and see the many beautiful jewelry sparkle on my body. I love large earrings and necklaces. For me, jewelry is a way to express my feminine and it feels just so good to wear the most beautiful pieces.
Besides unique and gorgeous jewelry designs, I highly appreciate quality (I don’t want to remove it when taking a dip in summer), and most importantly, I place a focus on ethical jewelry. Good working conditions, recycled materials, and imperfect pieces are what I’m looking for. In the following, I present 5 ethical jewelry brands that will feature you with their breathtaking summer pieces making you even feel more feminine. Let’s dive right in, girl!
