Orelia in the Press – Summer 2025 Round Up: Celebrity Styling & Jewellery Trends

By Hannah Little

In recent months, Orelia has appeared in numerous summer features across major press and trade publications. From multiple SheerLuxe mentions of the dreamy Côte d’Azur collection, Metro’s recognition of our waterproof range, and even major celebrities spotted wearing Orelia.

It’s been a season of standout coverage - and we’re loving every minute. We’re so happy to see jewellery lovers just as obsessed with these pieces as we are!

The Jewellery Trends Defining Summer 2025

This summer has been all about “Sardine Summer,” the return of shell jewellery, and those bold, statement pieces that instantly lift an outfit. From playful seaside motifs to eye-catching accessories that spark conversation, the season’s trends have added a fresh, joyful edge to summer styling.

Our design team has loved diving into these inspirations, creating pieces that capture the spirit of coastal chic while still feeling easy to wear every day. By blending timeless seaside details with contemporary touches, we’ve had so much fun bringing these trends to life – and we’re so happy to see them out in the world, styled in so many unique ways.

Fish Cord Necklaces

We saw the Sardine Summer trend, popping up everywhere from playful dress prints to designer bags, but it really made its mark in jewellery.

One of our favourites, the Molten Fish Cord Necklace from our Côte d’Azur collection, quickly became a much-loved piece and even sold out faster than we expected.

The excitement around it didn’t stop there. After so many requests, we couldn’t resist bringing it back for a special end-of-summer restock.

Trend Agenda: Delivered

Some of our favourite summer styles were spotted in places like WHO WHAT WEAR, Cosmopolitan and SheerLuxe – and one trend kept shining through: shells!

Shell jewellery really made a comeback this season, becoming one of the standout accessories of summer. From delicate anklets and stackable bracelets to statement necklaces and bold earrings, we loved seeing people embrace these pieces. Simple outfits, styled with jewellery that did all the talking – it was such a fresh, effortless way to dress for summer.
