You Can Buy Summer's Biggest Jewelry Trend on Etsy

Think fast, when you read the phrase 'summer camp', what comes to mind? S'mores? Tie dye? Parent Trap? All things extravaganza a la Met Gala? Don't worry, there's no wrong answer here. However, when it comes to jewelry and accessories, there's one thing that screams summer camp: friendship bracelets. From colorful beads to personalized ones there isn't much else out there that will go so seamlessly with all your tie-dye clothing and bucket hat ensembles than a multicolored beaded bracelet, necklace, or even a pair of earrings.

Fast forward a few years since you last went to summer camp, the trend that's coming up strong (alongside all the other nostalgia-filled fads) is the 2.0 version of friendship bracelets. Take it from Etsy's trend expert, Dayna Isom Johnson. "There have been over 31,000 searches on Etsy for camp within the clothing, jewelry, and accessories categories in the last three months," she told Teen Vogue.

This means that people have likely been stocking up on the aesthetic with utility vests, athletic shorts, and chunky sandals (to pair with socks of course). However, what makes beaded jewelry an all-time favorite (at least in our books) is that you can score it on Etsy for under $25. Sure, you can also DIY it, just like tie dye. But if you don't have the time, just like our favorite Etsy vintage stores, these Etsy's vendors are here to save the day.

Whether you were eyeing a cool beaded chain for your sunglass (a look we believe is only bound to get more traction), simply want a personalized bracelet, or need to switch out your gold hoops for some colorful ones, there's a camp-inspired jewelry piece waiting for you online. Best part? You're also helping a small business along the way. It's a look that is equal parts stylish and supportive. Ahead you can find 11 of the best, multicolor beaded pieces you can find on Etsy:
