We talk a lot about jewelry trends around these parts. As an editor, before showing you all the affordable pieces you can buy without thinking twice, I like to educate you all on where these trends are starting: the fine jewelry space. Since that's clearly a been there, done that topic as far as my spring reporting goes, it's time to get into the nitty-gritty of where to source some of the biggest jewelry trends on a budget. Investing in fine jewelry is something that takes a lot of thought, so we figured that on this lovely Monday, we'd offer you up something a little easier on the wallet.

Ahead, I have chosen seven major spring/summer jewelry trends that we've been talking quite a lot about and shopped out a handful of the best affordable versions of each. With nothing (except one Mejuri ring I couldn't not include), ringing in at over $150, the selection ahead is one that will have all of your last-minute, festive, and quirky accessorizes cravings more than satisfied.
