I spent a decade of my life at summer camp. Yes, that means ten whole summers spent sitting in a cabin in New Hampshire! So, you can imagine how happy I was when I saw colorful, beaded summer camp-inspired jewelry begin popping up on TikTok and Instagram. I felt like childhood me had pioneered the look! If you’re not a camp gal, though, I have some good news—you can still buy these bracelets and necklaces and look every bit the arts-and-crafts superstar with none of the effort (and none of the glue on your hands).
This bold, beaded jewelry trend is just the next phase in the colorful wardrobe makeover that’s been slowly occurring as we enter into the summer months. Still, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen bright accessories go big online—camp necklaces follow the rise of Gen Z-approved enamel earrings and chunky, kitschy bubble rings.
When styled with those playful pieces, these campy picks actually seem a little more understated. But that doesn’t mean these aren’t just as fun! Whether you gravitate towards a more delicate option or pick up a necklace covered in smiley faces and glittery hearts, there’s no wrong way to do it up.
Summer 2021 is truly the season of maximalism, from the clothes we wear to the bags and jewelry we accessorize with. After a year of spending so much time indoors, it makes sense that we’re ready to experiment with our style again! I love black leggings as much as the next person, but there’s a time and place for colorful things that spark joy—and that time and place is right here and now.
Read on to shop a few of the coolest beaded bracelets and necklaces the Internet has to offer. I won’t tell anyone you didn’t make them yourself! Oh, and don’t forget to style them with your bucket hat and platform sandals for peak 2021 vibes.
