I was visiting Jill MacKay's blog one day and she was referring to Creative Leisure News. Even though the subscription is a little pricey ($195), there's a lot of good information to be gained from the site without being a member.

Jewelry predictions from Jill MacKay include leather, long strands wrapped around the wrist, multi-bangled bracelets, the use of eco-sustainable goods, fringe-y jewelry, matching accessories ... such as matching jewelry to a purse or shoes. Here are just a few representations I found on the internet to support Jill's ideas for the future in jewelry design ...
