Jewelry Trends Inspired by K-Pop Stars

In the last few years, all of us have seen the Hallyu wave get stronger with individuals from all corners of the globe looking to Korea for fashion, beauty, and music inspiration. In almost no time, K-pop music and Korean skincare products have gained a lot of traction in the western markets. K-pop superstars and groups such as Blackpink, EXO, Twice, BTS, and many others are now household names for music lovers around the world. 

The world of fashion has always had a connection with musical superstars and fashion preferences. Today, many young people are looking to revamp their personal style, taking a cue from their favorite K-pop artists. While the maximum focus in on the off-duty as well as onstage outfits of the K-pop stars, their accessories have also gained a lot of attention on social media. According to information from Adina's Jewels, mentioned below are the most popular jewelry trends that were inspired by the fashion-forward K-pop idols. 

Min Yoon-gi, a rapper of the pop idol group BTS better known by his stage name Suga, created quite a stir with his chunky diamond jewelry in 2019 during the group's comeback. In line with the group's hit song "Boy With Luv," his jewelry featured a softer look. Suga is often seen wearing a white button-down shirt with a jewel-encrusted Cuban choker. The rapper's love for diamond-encrusted jewelry has been a big hit in the past, too. As a tribute to the group's fans, Suga famously wore his chunky ARMY rings during BTS' "Love Yourself" tour. Both these diamond jewelry pieces worn by Suga were made by a Korean brand that specializes in customized silver jewelry pieces. 

If you are a K-pop follower looking to emulate the looks of Suga, you may consider encrusting chunky jewelry with cubic zirconia. If you want the real deal, however, your best choice would be customized jewelry manufactured using ethically sourced stones and metals. If caring for the environment and protecting the human rights of the workers is important to you, opt for eco-friendly jewelry made of recycled gold, fair trade gold, or lab-grown diamonds. Most importantly, this concept relates to BTS' message of caring for the environment, being kind to others, and loving yourself. 

Numerous male and female K-Pop stars have followed the trend of having multiple piercings and sporting tiny earrings for many years. However, chandelier earrings were back with a bang since the comeback shows by Twice. In the group's widely followed "Feel Special" video, all nine members were seen complementing their glamorous looks with different styles of chandelier earrings. You may try out this earring style with a power suit to create a glam style statement that is perfectly suited for a dinner date or party. 

All the female members of the Blackpink group are renowned style icons who have been official brand ambassadors for brands such as Dior Beauty, Louis Vuitton, and Adidas. Out of all four members of the group, Jennie, in particular, has been an inspiration for fashion enthusiasts because of her sublime sense of style. Today, thousands of ladies around the world seek fresh fashion ideas by scrolling through her Instagram page. Jennie's popular signature look features stunning hair jewelry, ranging from rhinestone pins to jeweled brooches. You may also get a similar look by taking some pins and gluing a few rhinestones to them. Also, be sure to wear some pieces in your head's front portion.
