  • Hoop Earrings: A favorite of ancient civilizations and diverse cultures, they can make a statement while keeping things simple. With their ability to draw attention to your face without being distracting, they are a great go to.
  • Chain Necklaces: We spent some time sharing some of the variations of chains (check out our blog here) and they really are versatile. You can easily add a pendant, layer with other chains and they go with everything from jeans to cocktail dresses.
  • Cocktail Rings: Originally reserved for cocktail hour and showcasing a large center stone or ornament, these can now be worn any time and dress up all types of clothes. Wear these on your right-hand ring finger and enjoy the compliments!
  • Stud Earrings: We love these with diamonds, but any gem works. They can be worn everyday or on special occasions, providing just the right amount of glam. Consider different cuts and settings to make these your own!
  • Pearls: Pearls are the ultimate timeless piece, but they don’t have to boring! Pearls come in many colors and shapes, explore their look to find just the right one with your skin tone.
