Coveted Cuffs!

4 Apr

I often get asked about my “favorite” jewelry brands. That’s not easy to answer because so many jewelers are talented and make the cutest stuff! I will however, say that I definitely find myself wearing Giles & Brother Railroad spike cuffs time and time again. Like almost daily in fact. I wear them when I’m super dressy or casual. They are the perfect morph of understated & industrial meets elegant & pretty . These cuffs are for everyone(they are unisex) seriously, whether you’re edgy or super chic. They come in a variety of colors and sizes and look great alone or stacked. I have just about every finish and have never had a problem with tarnishing, but they do come in solid silver or gold, if you’re looking for a high end piece to last a lifetime.

Giles & Brother Railroad spike cuffs $75-$5,100

Industrial chic Just got Better!

22 Apr

If you follow me on any social media platform, it is no secret that I have a small obsession with Giles & Brother railroad spike bracelets.  I have so many styles of jewelry that I wear from dainty to colorful to bold, but my all time love would be modern/minimal pieces.  The Giles & Brother railroad spikes are super minimal with a bit of edge. The railroad spikes come in three sizes Original(thick) Skinny(medium)and Mini(thin) my preference has always been the “skinny”size  but I recently ordered the mini and I love it, it’s super dainty and delicate. How could these bracelets possibly get any better you ask???? Well, they are now available in precious metals!!! YES!!!!  If you’re a jewelry connoisseur you can rock a SOLID GOLD G&B bracelet!!!  These bracelets are also unisex which is very cool!

G&B bracelets are available in different finishes including brass, hematite, yellow gold tone, rose gold tone and silver tone. Sterling silver is also an option and solid gold(rose & yellow).

Wear Your Memories With This Cool Bracelet!

19 Dec

I think I may have found the coolest bracelet EVER!  I have always loved industrial, yet feminine jewelry, so I was instantly smitten when I layed eyes on these.  Coordinates Collection bracelets and rings are great because they show the latitude and longitude of any place in the world that you choose. You can pick a place where you first met someone, went to school or had a life achievement i.e. graduation, baby, marriage etc.  That’s not all……on the inside,  you can get a special date engraved and a message as well. These are just so cool and I’m gonna be wearing mine all the time!!!!

Coordinates rings start at $130 and bracelets start at $204. The price depends on the style and the material. For example the plated bracelets start at a couple hundred dollars and the solid rose or yellow gold can set you back thousands of dollars. You can also add birthstones for a bit extra as well. The pieces are all unisex  and come in different sizes. Although they may be an investment piece, these wearable memories will be with you for a lifetime!

Not a ring person? How cute are these bracelets  instead of wedding rings?!!! Just a thought. Get all matchy matchy with your hubby or wife!

Fabulous Friday Finds (Cutout bracelets)

28 Jun

Happy Friday lovelies!!!!!!!  I hope you’re  having a great week thus far.  Today my finds(under $20 as usual) consist of cutout bracelets, my new favorite piece. Every jewelry collection should include at least one.  These bracelets are a perfect for summer!  They make a statement and are very wearable during hot months, they’re open and airy! Although I’m a serial stacker when it comes to my wrist wear, I prefer to wear these cutout bracelets alone because they have such great detail that I don’t want to be sidelined by a surrounding stack.

These unique hinged bracelets and cuffs are priced from $4.80 to $8.80  and are all available at Forever21.
