My Everyday Jewelry
PIECES I wear on repeat
One of the most frequently asked questions I receive in my DM’s is about my daily jewelry! While I’ve done a decent job of sharing the pieces here and there, I thought it’d be helpful to share some of my favorite classic pieces in one place you’ll see me wearing most often with a bit more context. There are many pieces I’ve owned and worn for years and some that are newer, so today, we’re digging in!
When it comes to daily jewelry, I’ve been gravitating towards more delicate, classic pieces, and you'll notice I love to mix silver and gold. This is my preference; some stick to gold, silver, or rose gold, but I say do what you love. There are no “rules” about mixing.
Brian bought me this necklace a few years ago for my birthday, and it’s one of my favorite pieces that I’ve ever owned. I rarely take it off, and it has held up beautifully. I have the longer length in gold!
The bracelet stacking has been a fairly new experiment for me… Last year I started with this set of beaded bracelets to see how I’d rock the trend before I invested in more expensive pieces that I never take off. I was kindly gifted this bracelet (here’s a similar option for less), and I rarely take it off along with this bracelet, I believe my code CARALYN is still valid sitewide.
I recently discovered this brand, and they’ve quickly become a favorite. They’re a small female-owned, and the quality is the best I’ve tried regarding stretchy bracelets. You can choose your size to measure your wrist to ensure a perfect fit! All of the other stretchy bracelets that I wear constantly are from them! I believe CARALYN10 should work on their site too.
I love the look of a classic stud! I have worn this pair for years which held up and cleaned beautifully. For my 30th birthday, I received this pair of diamond studs as a gift from Brian, and I’ve been wearing them on repeat. On a recent trip to Dallas, I visited the WILDLIKE shop (highly recommend) and got my second holes re-pierced with these studs that are permanently in, and I found a very similar shape in a set for less here.
My engagement ring is definitely my favorite thing I’ve ever owned; BK picked it out and proposed with it back in 2017. You can read our engagement/love story here if interested! My original wedding band after four years started giving me a severe reaction on my hand, so I bought and started wearing this one in the interim until we figure out another one!
A FEW FAVORITE PLACES TO SHOP FOR JEWELRY
ABLE | AMAZON | BAUBLE BAR | DANA REBECCA | ERICA WOOLSTEN | LISI LERCH | MIRANDA FRYE | PAVOI | TUCKERNUCK
I love mixing high and low price points, just like I do with my clothing and home decor! I hope this post helps give the scoop on my everyday pieces. You can shop the pieces and similar options below.
As far as storage goes, I keep this ring dish next on my nightstand that I put my rings and bracelets in each night. It comes with two dishes, so I keep the other one in the bathroom for when I shower! I also have this one in my closet! When I travel with jewelry, I absolutely LOVE this travel case - it fits a ton of my costume/bauble earrings. For necklaces, I have this stand that keeps everything untangled and easy to view. You can check out more on how I organize/store my jewelry on my closet reveal!
DOn’T FORGET TO CLEAN YOUR JEWELS!
I bought this device in 2017 when I was recently engaged, it’s a bit bulky, but it cleans jewelry just as well as you can get it cleaned at a jeweler. I throw my fine and inexpensive jewelry in there and sunglasses/eyeglasses. It comes with a little bottle of solution that lasted me a while, but after a few years, I bought this and add a capful with warm water each time I want to clean.
I’ll also use this cleaner and a toothbrush to clean pieces for a less bulky option. If you know anyone recently engaged, jewelry cleaner makes a fantastic gift idea!
Thanks for reading!
