Everyday Gold Jewelry Favorites

Lifestyle

Apr 11

Since we’re all hanging inside these days, I wanted to round up my gold jewelry favorites in case you’re looking for some new basics for the months ahead. This post has been requested a few times and I often get questions on my Insta stories about my rings/bracelets/necklaces, so I hope having it all in one place is helpful — whether you’re online shopping now or adding to a wishlist for later!

I like to layer delicate gold pieces to wear everyday on their own, which then can act as a quiet complement when you want to add in statement pieces. This is a selection of things I own and rotate often; typically I wear the same rings everyday, and then mix up my bracelets and necklaces. Over the years, I’ve definitely taken more of a quality over quantity standpoint when it comes to jewelry — I avoid pieces that I know will tarnish quickly (or at all), because they tend to wear out quickly and end up being a waste of money. I’m also super allergic to nickel and other metal compounds, so I look for items that are either solid gold, or plated with gold or something comparable. I know we’re all different, but I can say that none of the pieces linked below have given me any allergy issues!

Jim gave me the signet ring below engraved with a “J” because I looooved the idea of this as a boyfriend ring – you can add your own initial, or a number, or anything special to you. I got mine in a smaller size and wear it as a pinky ring :) If you’re looking for a splurgy-worthy piece, I’d definitely recommend the diamond beaded ring from Mejuri (and really any of their pieces) — it’s so dainty and the diamond gives the prettiest bit of sparkle!

There are also some pieces from local favorites like Wildfoot Studio and Océanne below; I wear my Wildfoot stacking ring every.single.day. The pieces I have from Gorjana are also pool and summertime approved — I’ve worn my necklaces and bracelets in the pool/lake for the past few summers and have had no issues with them tarnishing or staining my skin, which is a must! I definitely take care of my jewelry but love to have some delicate pieces that I can wear constantly throughout the summer. Hopefully this helps if you’re gearing up for the season!
