Body piercing has been around for a while now and there are new ones popping up every day. There are so many different body piercings you can get these days and fantastic jewellery to go with each one. There are trends that come in and last a long time and then there are others that don’t quite get as popular as others.
So what are the hottest trends in body jewellery at the moment?
Layered Ear Piercings
Who has just one piercing in their ears these days? Layer ear piercings are becoming very popular. The look is achieved by having multiple ear piercings along the ear. There can be some next to each other in a horizontal way or vertically up and down the ear.
The jewellery used is normally an assortment of different pieces, hoops, rings and studs that all have a similar look or colour to them.
The reason this look is so popular is that you can tailor the colours and styles to your mood, outfit or style.
Lip Piercings
Lip piercings are becoming popular again with many females now taking the plunge and getting the piercing as well. Gone are the days where the lip piercing was just on the far side of the lip. Many people are experimenting with multiple piercings next to each other, the middle of the lip or both sides. This is a popular choice for those wanting a ring piercing.
Novelty
Novelty studs and rings are becoming popular with people loving being able to express something about them in a fun and exciting way. Novelty jewellery pieces are very popular and you can find almost anything in the way of a piece of body jewellery these days.
Simple
Another very popular trend at the moment with body jewellery is simple pieces. Many are now opting for simple signature pieces that will not take the focus away from them as a person. Small gems in their studs, pastel colours and plain matte blacks for facial jewellery. This is also a popular choice for those who work in industries where piercings are not the ‘norm’. It means that they can keep their piercings in without too much judgement or staring.
Linking chains
Chains are another popular choice for body jewellery.
There are many styles available where you can link a small chain or row of gems from one piercing to another. This works extremely well for those who have multiple ear piercings. It gives a new level to the piercings and is always a great conversation starter.
Whatever your style is, you are sure to find a piece of jewellery that will suit it. There are so many different pieces available for purchase these days. The hardest part about choosing your body jewellery is stopping at just one or two pieces.
