The challenge with reasonably priced fine jewelry is that most brands opt for simple everyday gems (Vrai & Oro does them beautifully). There aren’t many jewelers who can marry an unexpected design with precious metals and still come in at a price that isn’t astronomical. Dannijo’s new fine jewelry collection accomplishes this with its all-gold pieces. (The diamond options are significantly pricier.) The Spinelli ear jacket is my favorite. It has the brand’s signature irreverence with a delicate touch and gives you the option of replacing the center stud with a favorite from your own collection. I imagine it looks darling with a diamond center or a colorful gemstone. It’s still an investment at $325, but the versatility is worth it.
Currently Coveting
Right now, I’m coveting:
- A coat of glossy turquoise painted on a ceiling
- A simple shift in a punchy hue
- This colorful cluster of gems
- A gilded lily candle holder
- Flamingo glasses that are motivating enough to brave the crowd at Ikea (thanks to Laura Bear’s post!)
- Updating tuxedo pants with a floral lace stripe
- A turquoise statement necklace
Remember the pineapple stirrers from last week’s post? They’re currently part of C. Wonder’s flash sale and available for $19.99.
