One of the popular jewellery trends these days is to make sure that your jewellery speaks for you. That means wearing pieces like a sterling silver pendant or even a sterling silver CZ pendant that depicts a design that shows a little about who you are and what speaks for you.

While that could mean spending a fortune on an expensive designer pendant that shows your love of the beach - depicting a mermaid, sea shell or surfboard, you could just as easily show off by wearing a more affordable design like a sterling silver pendant or designer inspired pendants.

Wearing designer inspired pendants that show summer is in full swing is not only trendy, but lets people know a little bit about you according to TrendToGo chief executive officer and founder Michael Trofimchuk. “As we shed clothes in the summer our jewellery becomes more and more visible…as much as we are taught not to, people still judge books by their covers and you better believe that your jewellery will not go unnoticed."

So, what kind of pendant is best? That all depends on the person. If you want to make a simple statement, try a sterling silver pendant that is in a shape of something that lets people know who you are like a set of scuba tanks or a margarita glass.

Want to make a bigger statement? Why not add a little flash to that pendant. This is what a sterling silver CZ pendant can do. In addition to having the shape of the item that represents you, the CZ will offer a little glimmer and shine to the overall picture.

Finally, if you are really trying to make a personal statement as well as a jewellery statement, you should consider designer inspired pendants. These are pendants that look as if they are something that would have come out of Tiffany's or another high-end shop, right off of the fashion runway.
