For fun, girly, not-too-expensive jewelry, Soo Ihn Kim has us covered. If you want unique but aren’t interested in going overboard – think jewels that stand out, without roaming outside the box of everyday versatility – these Frugal Snob-approved picks are right-on. Just enough to be noticed – an off-kilter cluster here, a wrapped chain there – without necessarily changing the tone of your look.
The gold-plated “Allison” Bracelet has clusters of Swarovski crystals sitting atop little domes. They’re like glittering bursts of snowballs around the wrist. The Rimma Ring couldn’t be more different. This wild gunmetal-plated ring darkly shines with Herkimer diamond quartz stones. Its asymmetry and rocky texture give this piece some real edge. At Shobop for $105.
The “Mulholland” earrings bring us back to almost dainty with their coin charms and beads dangling from a wrapped chain. The mixed-metals save them from being too prissy. And lastly, the “Gaby” earrings – a stud that again features the dome with Swarovski crystals. Simple and elegant. At Shopbop for $68.
These blendable pieces are easy to mix with others in your jewelry box. They welcome layering – and that’s really how you personalize jewelry to create your own unique style.
“Rimma” Ring on ShopBop for $105.
“Gaby” Earrings on ShopBop for $35.
