Timeless Jewelry Pieces to Gift or Keep
You all know that I love my bling! I’ve always believed that jewelry is the icing on the cake of any outfit. I have my share of costume jewelry, but sometimes, you want a little something special. Whether you are treating yourself after a long year or looking for that perfect present for a daughter or best friend, investing in timeless pieces is always a smart idea. These picks are classic and elegant, but you can also wear them every day without being overdressed.
My Personal Favorites
Some jewelry is pretty, and some jewelry means something, and this combination manages to be both. These are my everyday necklaces, the ones I put on and honestly forget to take off. The Large Cross 14k Yellow Gold Necklace has such a beautiful shape and soft shine, and layering it with the Small Mantra Necklace adds that quiet, personal reminder we all need now and then.
Pieces like this are timeless because they don’t rely on trends or seasons. A simple gold cross and a meaningful word are just as relevant today as they will be years from now. The chains glide together without tangling, most of the time, and the different sizes let each piece stand on its own without competing. It’s the kind of combination that slowly becomes your signature, not because you planned it that way, but because it feels like you.
Classic Pearl Studs
Every woman needs a pair of pearl studs; they are like the little black dress of your jewelry box. These are the perfect size, not too big and not too small, and they go with anything. Wear these running errands in jeans and a tee, or with a dress out to dinner!
- Instantly brightens the complexion
- Lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear
- A versatile classic that never goes out of style
- Secure backing sits well on the earlobe
Elegant Pearl Necklace
I went pearl shopping with my SIL recently. She bought a nice pearl necklace for her daughter’s birthday because you can’t go wrong with a classic strand of pearls. This necklace is from Quince, which makes the luxe affordable. The length hits at just the right spot to wear with a variety of necklines. It feels substantial and high-quality, the kind of piece you pass down but want to wear right now.
- Luminous pearls flatter all skin tones
- The perfect length to wear with various necklines
- smooth surface feels lovely against the skin
- sophisticated look for church or dinner
Diamond Drop Earrings
If you want something super special (with a price to go along with it), these diamond drop earrings are gorgeous. They are available in yellow or white gold, and are actually fairly petite. Three carats of “Gurls Best Friend!”
- Dangling style helps frame the face
- Adds sparkle without being heavy or dragging the ear
- Secure latch prevents them from falling out
- Timeless design that looks very expensive
Emerald Cut Diamond Studs
If you want a diamond stud that feels a little more modern than the traditional round shape, this emerald cut is stunning. It also happens to be my favorite cut! The shape is very sophisticated and tends to look larger on the ear. I love that they sit flat against the earlobe, so they don’t droop or snag on your clothing.
- Modern shape that offers a unique look
- Sits flat to mask stretched ear piercings
- Incredible sparkle that lights up the face
- Durable setting for daily wear
14 K Gold Chain
Is anything more timeless than a gold chain? It’s the ultimate staple! You can wear it with anything, dress it up or down, add charms, you name it! Available in 16, 18, 20, and 24 inches.
- The ultimate staple for every woman’s wardrobe
- Matches absolutely every outfit you own
- 16, 18, 20, and 24 inches
Gold Tube Hoops
I love a good hoop, but I cannot stand heavy earrings that drag my earlobes down and make them look stretched. These tube hoops are chunky enough to be noticed even if you have longer hair, but they are hollow and lightweight, so you can wear them all day comfortably. They add a youthful, fun vibe to your look without trying too hard.
- Hollow design is lightweight and ear-friendly
- Thick enough to be visible and stylish
- Classic gold warms up your complexion
- Secure clasp that is easy to manage
Two-Tone Watch
I still love wearing a watch, not just to tell time, but with bracelets. The two-tone metal here is a lifesaver because it means you can wear it with your gold wedding band and your silver earrings without clashing. The mother-of-pearl face is easy to read and adds such a feminine, soft touch to a practical piece.
- Mixed metals make it versatile for any outfit
- Large, easy-to-read face
- Acts as a piece of jewelry and a timepiece
- Classic link band is adjustable and comfortable
Opal Cross Necklace
You all know how important my faith is to me, and I am almost always wearing my cross. This one features a lab-grown opal. It’s delicate and tasteful, making it a wonderful gift for yourself or someone special in your life.
- A beautiful symbol of faith
- The opal stone reflects colors to match any outfit
- Delicate chain that is perfect for layering
- A sentimental gift that has deep meaning
Sterling Silver Cuff
As we get older, fiddling with tiny lobster clasps can be a real pain in the neck (and the fingers!). That is why I am a big fan of cuff bracelets like this one; you just slip it on and give it a little squeeze for a custom fit. The silver texture is interesting and hides scratches, making it a durable piece that looks great stacked with a watch.
- No clasp design is easy for stiff fingers
- Adjustable fit for all wrist sizes
- Textured silver hides wear and tear
- Looks great alone or stacked with other bracelets
