The perfect jeans. An essential tank top. Go-with-everything ballet flats. Our beloved wardrobe staples help us get dressed in a pinch and still look put-together.
The new Jewels Aficionado collection emphasizes the versatile fine jewelry equivalents that do the same. The range focuses on fine jewelry’s most valuable players that will take you from the office to a lunch date to an upscale event, all depending on how you mix and match them.
So, what are the most essential jewelry MVPs to have in one’s jewelry box?
In Part 1 of the conversation, we’ll focus specifically on the necklace and bracelet styles no woman should be without.
First up in the necklace category, there is no style as versatile as the diamond tennis necklace. The style hits just at or below the collarbone–a universally flattering length–and is simple to dress up or down.
A tennis necklace provides a chic focal point for a casual outfit, instantly elevating a crisp white t-shirt and trousers. Conversely, a diamond or gemstone necklace is utterly appropriate to pair with a high-wattage evening look.
All of the new Jewels Aficionado tennis necklaces are adjustable, so they can be worn higher at 13 inches, or lower at 15 inches for the perfect individualized fit. This length is ideal for further layering. Maximalists will love combining a tennis necklace with a longer pendant or additional diamond chains.
Like the rest of the collection, the new Jewels Aficionado tennis necklaces are crafted in 18-karat gold and the highest-quality diamonds and colored gemstones.
The Pear-Shaped Diamond Riviére consists of a splendid row of bold, on-trend pear-shaped diamonds set horizontally, while the Mixed Shape Diamond Tennis Necklace alternates pear and round diamonds for a delicate interplay of shapes.
Vibrants pops of color courtesy of yellow diamonds, ruby, emerald, and blue sapphire, create unique juxtaposition in the Pear-Shaped Diamond Riviére Tennis Necklace with Yellow Diamonds and the Mixed Cut Diamond Tennis Necklaces. These gemstone “winks” of color can represent a loved one’s birthstone or simply a favorite shade.
For a more casual take on the style, the Pear-Shaped Diamond and Paperclip Necklaces and the Diamond and Gold Paperclip Necklaces marry the sparkle of diamonds with the cool factor of a gold metal chain.
When it comes to the MVP of bracelets, flexible cuffs and bangles are the ultimate accessory for the woman on the go. Whether on vacation or at home, Jewels Aficionado Flexible Cuff Bracelets make layering a no-brainer.
Round diamond and colored gems line the open cuffs that culminate in a trendy pear-shaped silhouette. Classic fine jewelry pieces should be easy to wear, and these are ideal for pairing with a favorite timepiece or layer several in different colors.
Another Most Valuable Player jewel is the Jewels Aficionado Stretchy Tennis Bracelet. Unlike a traditional tennis bracelet, this 18-karat gold style is engineered to be completely flexible, so it can be slipped on and off over the wrist. Take your choice of white diamonds, yellow diamonds, or colored sapphires.
