Chunky jewelry is an easy cool girl accessory, and we’re excited that it’s here to stay. It’s an impactful way to add some styling to a look in a flash. And as much as we love layering dainty jewelry, sometimes the look (or the clock) calls for a quick statement piece that gets you out the door fast. Of course, as the true maximalist knows, chunky jewelry can also be layered for a real show-stopping look. Whichever path you choose, you can’t go wrong. The jewelry style ranges from trendy heart-shaped accessories to fine jewelry, and no matter the price, chunky jewelry is always playful and bold.
We’ve compiled the best chunky jewelry under the $300 mark across a range of styles, metals, occasions, and more. So if you’re looking to take on 2024 jewelry trends, such as all things silver, adorable bow accessories, and oceanic influences, read on to find statement pieces you’ll want to add to your spring wardrobe.
The Best Chunky Earrings
These chunky earrings aren’t your typical earrings. We picked sculptural statement hoops and droplet studs in a range of styles that could be worn for Friday nights out or to an elegant wedding. Consider adding any one of these earrings to your collection and instantly transform looks into bold ones.
The Best Chunky Necklaces
When we think of chunky necklaces, chain styles are the ones that come to mind. But they don’t just need to be gold or silver; multicolored ocean-themed necklaces have been spotted on catwalks along with mixed materials, such as pearls and gold. Youthful styles like puffy initial necklaces and charm necklaces are also having a moment.
The Best Chunky Bracelets
Bracelets are typically the jewelry piece we feel we can play with and switch up the most. You might as well go all out with the chunky jewelry trend. Everything from freshwater pearls to heart-shaped bracelets have modern interpretations of everyday jewelry.
Chunky Rings
Chunky rings may have previously been reserved for cocktail parties, but the novelty style has become more of an everyday look. Whether you want a classic, streamlined piece or a chic bauble, there are countless chunky rings that are a major upgrade from your Grandma’s costume jewelry.
