Jewelry Buying Guide

For anyone who’s trying to find the perfect jewelry gift but isn’t quite sure where to start, this short guide will help you choose something just right. A woman’s jewelry collection contains many of her most prized possessions. From basics to fashion items, there are countless designs to choose from, and browsing our list below will help you determine what might be missing from her collection.

THE BASICS
Though each woman has her own unique taste in jewelry, there are certain basic items which no woman should be without. Think of it like cooking; whatever national cuisine might be your forte, you’d be pretty lost without the salt!

DIAMOND STUDS
Diamond studs instantly add a touch of class and dazzle to any outfit. It could be the first small pair that she received for her 16h birthday, or the 2 carat 20th anniversary studs. Whatever the occasion, diamond studs are always appropriate.

DIAMOND PENDANTS
A dash of sparkle at the neckline is a guaranteed way to elevate an outfit. From subtle to dramatic, diamond pendants can be elegant, playful and sexy.

DIAMOND BRACELETS
Whether it’s a classic diamond tennis bracelet or something more whimsical, a diamond bracelet will accentuate other jewelry items with extra sparkle.

DIAMOND HOOP EARRINGS
From tiny huggy hoop earrings to inch-and-a-half long pave diamond stunners, hoops are classy and beautiful. Consider her style and personality to determine which design suits her best.

PEARL STUDS
Pearl jewelry is classic, elegant and sensual, and pearl stud earrings are an essential component in any pearl jewelry wardrobe.

PEARL NECKLACES
Those pearl studs won’t look quite right without something to complement her neckline. It could be a full strand or a solitaire pearl drop pendant, but either way, a pearl necklace is something no woman should be without.


ACCESSORIES
Perhaps you’re shopping for a woman who has the basics firmly covered. Fortunately, there is a wide variety of fashion jewelry and accessories to choose from as well. Whether it’s a subtle accent, or a bold centerpiece, gemstone and diamond fashion designs are a great way to accentuate any wardrobe.

RIGHT HAND RINGS
Diamond right-hand rings can add sparkle and dazzle to an outfit in a playful way. As opposed to engagement rings and anniversary bands, right hand diamond rings are typically more whimsical and can add the perfect amount of diamond sparkle without saying “I’m spoken for”.

DIAMOND DANGLE EARRINGS
Diamond Dangle earrings usually hang freely which provides them with a more dynamic and kinetic look. Catching light with even subtle movements, these designs are scintillating and chic.

STACKABLE RINGS
Stackable jewelry is a unique and popular way to change up a jewelry wardrobe with variety and whimsy. Wearing a single stacking ring can be a subtle accent while combining a large group provides a look that is fun and playful.

STACKABLE BRACELETS
In the same way that stackable rings can lend a fun and versatile look, stackable bracelets can provide the same effect with even more impact. Stackable bracelets have been de rigeur at red carpet events for years now, and this look is bold and exciting.

GEMSTONE JEWELRY
There are countless gemstones found throughout the world, and jewelers create all kinds of fascinating designs using these natural wonders. From multi-colored semi-precious gemstone designs to classic ruby, emerald and sapphire staples, gemstone jewelry is a great way to add accent color an outfit.

GOLD JEWELRY
Gold has been coveted for thousands of years and has been used in jewelry design by a wide range of cultures. While this vibrant and captivating metal has a tendency to go through more or less intense periods of fashion, it is never truly out of style. Currently, yellow gold jewelry is extremely popular, and brands like H.Stern, Gurhan and Marco Bicego offer innovative and exciting gold jewelry designs.
