ONE MIGHT HAVE expected the pearl trend to start cooling down about now, but the opposite is happening. We have Margot Robbie’s Barbie press tour outfits sparking interest in ultra-feminine vintage style while Harry Styles is out there showing men that it’s OK for boys to wear pearls, too. At the same time, ocean-themed Coastal Cowgirl and Mermaidcore are two of the hottest style trends of the year. Pearls are relevant to pretty much every corner of the market right now, and you need to be ready.

Sterling silver jewelry by Tanya Moss includes pearl necklace with Sacred Geometry charm, $199; pearl bracelet with charm, $75; butterfly studs with cubic zirconia, $79; butterfly earrings, $49; Fondant ring with mother of pearl, $179; and multicolor sapphire necklace with gold beads, $619.

Coastal Cowgirl

Coastal Cowgirl exploded into prominence at the beginning of summer 2023, but it’s a style perfectly suited to autumn as well. This category lives at the intersection of Westernwear and beachy BoHo; think white lace, cowboy boots, flowing linen, and denim jackets. In terms of jewelry, this means Southwestern boldness meets BoHo’s sweetness.

Mermaidcore

The key to Mermaidcore is imagining what a glamorous, sea-dwelling mermaid would wear if she had the chance to shop in your store. Think organic shapes, aquatic greens and blues or seaside sunrise hues, patterns reminiscent of swirling seaweed or cresting waves. Mermaidcore is romantic and soft with an undercurrent of mystery as unknowable as the sea.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
