A Few of My Favorite Things...

Growing up in the jewelry industry, I never thought I’d find myself with a career in that same field. I remember being in the store (Hurdle’s Jewelry) at a young age and feeling so important that they let me windex the glass cases….little did I realize it was just some child labor! Ha!

I had little intentions of continuing the family business and working at the jewelry store after I graduated from the University of Colorado. Fast forward a few years, I was needing a transition job to figure out what I was going to do with my life. I started working at the store, and simply fell in love. Everything about it, the jewelry, the people, the family history, everything!  

Now, here I am years later, constantly obsessing over jewelry. I’m excited to share some of my favorite things from our store and the designers we work with.

  • Amali Jewelry has the most stunning pieces, I’ve already covered my love for Sara & her jewelry in a previous post, but truly she’s ridiculously amazing! These turquoise & blue diamond earrings are so unique and beautiful.

 
  • I wear this necklace every single day. I’m not a huge heart shape fan, but for whatever reason I became attached to this mini diamond heart necklace from Yasuko Azuma. It’s so perfect as a tiny accent or layered with other necklaces.

  • Next up, I absolutely love the color of Lapis mixed with yellow gold accents. This “Heirloom” Lapis bracelet from Nina Nguyen is perfect for stacking next to a watch or other bracelets. Not to mention, Nina Nguyen is a local designer based out of Denver! She has tons of gorgeous wrap necklaces and bracelets in addition to this one!

  • Shay Jewelry has a special place in my heart. I’m obsessed with all of their designs. They make their pieces in rose gold, yellow gold, white gold and my favorite, black rhodium plated gold (like the ring below). I've never seen a piece of jewelry from Shay that I didn't fall in love with! Pave Diamond Link Ring from Shay:

  • Everyone needs a good watch. This TAG Carrera is not only functional but also gorgeous!! The strap is a soft leather with cross stitching. The diamonds and rose gold accents are what make this watch my absolute favorite!! This is also available in navy blue too! The obsession is real.

  • The perfect everyday diamond stud earrings. These come in yellow, white & rose gold. They also come in a larger size too! The best part about these earrings is their price. They're $545 and have a big look in your ear for diamond stud earrings. If you were to buy single diamond stud earrings that look the same size you'd be paying upwards of $5,000! I'm all about saving money and still getting look!

These are just a few of my favorite jewelry pieces. I'm so passionate about jewelry and can't wait to share more of my favorites in the future! I would love to hear what you think of my favorites, along with what your favorites are too!
