Add a Dash of 'You' to Your Everyday Shine
Katie Dean, March 11 2024
Today, we're diving deeper than ever into the captivating world of personalized jewelry. One of our longest standing best sellers, the Initial Collection, embodies the perfect design elements for a minimalist all while making each piece is as distinct and special as the person wearing it.
Personalized Perfection
Have you ever peered into your jewelry box and felt something is missing? That touch of personalization that would finish off your look perfectly? The Initial Collection is your answer. It's a call to infuse your personality into every outfit. Choose an initial ring for understated elegance, or an initial necklace that states, "This is me!" in the daintiest way. Each piece represents a part of your story and we love how they can evoke conversation with a mere stranger at the coffee shop or at a workout class.
The Initial Ring: Elegance at Your Fingertips
Imagine a ring that does more than just stack perfectly with your other everyday rings. The Initial Ring, crafted with 18K gold plating over a brass base featuring a Swarovski Crystal opposite the Initial, is elegance redefined. Perfect for stacking with other beloved rings or as a standalone statement, it's versatile. It’s also adjustable! If you didn’t know, your diet can totally change your rings size. Surprise! When you eat salty foods especially, your fingers will expand from retaining water, kind of like when you wake up and your underage is puffy. But luckily with this ring you just have to gently push up on each side to expand the ring so it sits comfortably on your finger.
The Initial Earring: Your Story, Softly Spoken
Elegance can be bold, or it can be subtle. The Initial Earring, made nickel-free (meaning it is hypoallergenic and safe for almost all sensitive ears!) is a quiet yet potent expression of individuality. Our Initial Studs are intentionally sold individually so you can personalize your pair to represent your first and last initials or your kids! It also makes for a more unique layering look when you pair mixed initials with your other earrings. If you need inspiration, here’s an example: Katie wore the “K” and “J” initial studs for her wedding to represent her name and her husbands name. You can check out this Wedding blog to see pictures from their big day. Needless to say, the Initial Studs are perfect for laid-back weekend outings or your board meetings, they're as adaptable as your life's varied chapters.
The Initial Necklace: Your Personal Style Statement
Anyone else love a necklace they can easily wear everyday? If you’re a creature of habit the Initial Necklace is the ultimate game-changer in your style arsenal. Intentionally designed with a petite initial, this necklace is all about the little details. It’s meant to make people do a double take. It’s also adjustable in length — you can clasp it at 16 inches or 18 inches making it easy to mix it up with a medley of other necklaces for that edgy, 'I just threw this together' look. Don’t be shy of wearing it solo though! It gives off an effortlessly chic vibe all on its own.
Styling Tips for a Personalized Look
Not to sound like a broken record but the Initial Collection really is versatile. We encourage you to get creative and mix and match these pieces with your existing favorites but don’t be afraid to let them stand out on their own. Whether you are at the beach wearing the Initial Ring paired with a breezy summer dress or at an evening dinner with friends wearing the Initial Necklace layered with your favorite chain necklace (may we suggest the Linked Necklace-hint, hint), we know you’ll love these best sellers.
The Art of Gifting
Don’t overthink it! Personalized gifts are always a hit. It really takes your gifting to a new level when the recipients initial is part of the present keeping the sentiment heartfelt without being cheesy. Winning combo if you ask us.
