All Put Together: Revamping Your Jewelry Box

By Carinna Arvizo, the Dartmouth Staff | 10/15/13 6:00am

I love to wear jewelry. An outfit feels incomplete without a few snazzy pieces. The pieces you wear show off your personal style, but we all need a jewelry box revamp every once in a while. Here are a few finds under fifty bucks that will have you turning heads.

 

1. Put a spike on it.

I’m all about necklaces, from layering necklaces to wearing a simple chain. I typically wear simple necklaces. Until I discovered the spiked necklace. This dramatic piece fromH&Mwill be the focus of your outfit.

2. Logograms anyone?

In my opinion, Kate Spade has the best necklaces. Kate Spade’s ampersand necklace is simple enough to pair it with another necklace, but it can also stand-alone. It looks small, but people will be sure to notice it.

3. A bracelet for any occasion.

Like necklaces, you can layer a bracelet. This pave stone bracelet from Target is similar to J.Crew’s classic link bracelet, but is a fraction of the price. Be sure to try layering it with simple bangles.

4. Everything from Texas is always better.

This necklace from Son of a Sailor is probably one of my favorite finds. This Austin-based brand is known for its geometric designs and use of color. This piece is a perfect complement to solid colored tops.

5. Bugs can be cute.

These junebug earrings from Anthropologie are truly beautiful. The mixture of colors and different stones make these one of a kind. Honestly, I would probably wear these everyday of the week. Anthropologie has an excellent earring collection overall; you’ll always find something that suits your style.
