Jewelry : The Basics

I travel a lot. So  I spend about half a year on the road. I dislike packing . I hate leaving shoes and clothes behind (Yes, I hurt their feelings ) but with new airline  rules its one suitcase allowance to travel with. 

Today I m gonna show you my basics / go to  jewelry pieces.

Weather you travel a lot and space is limited , you have no space in you house , or you never wore jewelry or you are on a budget .. this is a good place to start.

 

1) Watch. Get a good watch. This is probably the biggest investment when it comes to jewelry. Its also a good place to base what kind of jewelry you add to your collection.

2) Basic necklaces. Something that you always have on and that will go .. well with anything. Decide if you want gold/white gold or silver. Any length chain with one pendant. You can opt out for your birth stone , letter , cross .. anything simple.

3) Custom jewelry. Get two or three colorful yet simple necklaces. Try and get one small , medium and a large design piece. I wear a lot of black & neutral colors...soo I take pink, black and blue with me .

4) Bracelets: Get some simple bracelets you can layer. If you got a gold watch , stick yo similar tone bracelets. You can also try an have colors that will work with you necklaces.

 

Pandora silver bracelet & charms , vintage gold bracelets , black and pink Pandora links that you can put charms.

5) Earrings. I have two pairs. One gold , one silver. something you can wear with anything works pretty well. If you don't like dangly/long earrings studs are a great option.

6)Rings. You can get fairly inexpensive , pretty good quality rings pretty much anywhere now days. Try different shapes & sizes of rings that way you can mix and match.
