Trends come and go in jewelry—oversized hoops, layered chokers, chunky bangles—but some styles always circle back with fresh energy. Right now, that’s charms for necklaces. And unlike the charm bracelets of the past, today’s charms are sleek, customizable, and designed to actually fit your everyday life.
But here’s the truth: not all charms are created equal. Some are cheap, plated, and destined to tarnish before you’ve even had the chance to love them. Others are timeless, versatile, and personal—built to be worn daily without fuss. That’s the difference at Mogano. Our charms for necklaces are crafted in 14k Gold Filled and Sterling Silver, making them safe for sensitive skin, water-resistant, and durable enough for real life.
What Makes Charms for Necklaces So Popular?
Charms are trending again for one big reason: personalization. Jewelry lovers are over “one-size-fits-all” accessories. Instead, they want pieces that tell a story—whether it’s an initial, a birthstone, or a little engraving that only makes sense to them.
Here are the trends defining charms for necklaces right now:
1. Initial Charms
Personal but subtle, initial charms are everywhere. They let you represent yourself, your partner, your kids, or even your best friend without saying a word. Mogano’s Bubble Letter Initial Charms bring a playful twist to a classic trend, designed to layer seamlessly into your necklace stack.
2. Birthstone Charms
Color + meaning in one. Birthstone charms add personality and depth to any necklace. September sapphires, October opals, December turquoise—they’re all about making your jewelry feel personal. Our Gemstone Birthstone Charms are bezel-set in gold filled or sterling silver, giving you lasting quality with a pop of color.
3. Engravable Charms
Customization is at an all-time high, and engravable charms are leading the charge. Whether it’s a date, name, paw print, or fingerprint, these charms let you create a keepsake that’s completely your own. Explore options on our Engravings page to see how easy it is to design yours.
4. Statement Symbols
Think lockets, dog tags, or clover charms—pieces that carry meaning beyond just aesthetics. These charms feel bold, iconic, and timeless while still layering effortlessly with initials and birthstones.
How to Style Charms for Necklaces Every Day
The best part about charms? They’re versatile. Here’s how to make the trend work for you no matter your vibe:
Build Your Base
Start with a chain you love—maybe a sleek herringbone, a classic paperclip, or a versatile stacker clasp chain. Once you’ve got your base, you can start layering on charms.
One Charm for Minimal Vibes
If you’re more of a minimalist, one charm says it all. A single birthstone or initial on a delicate chain is simple, chic, and perfect for daily wear.
Charm Stacks for Maximum Personality
For the bold jewelry lover, stacks are where it’s at. Layer a dog tag engraving with a birthstone charm and a bubble initial to tell a fuller story. Mix metals (yes, it’s trending!) to create contrast, or keep it all in gold for a polished vibe.
Seasonal Styling
-
Fall: Rich colors like sapphire or garnet birthstones pop against cozy knits.
