A Very Merry Christmas Haul

A girl just doesn’t get any luckier than this. Although I insisted my family not buy me any presents this year, as a wedding is more than enough of a gift, they surprised me with a few of my wishlist items. CLICK TO READ THIS POST →

Gift Guide: Jewelry Lover

by Kristina on December 8, 2011 · 16 comments

1. Nordstrom LusterLoc Jewelry Trunk $58 | 2. Yves Saint Laurent ‘Arty Dots’ ring $250 | 3. Ippolita Rock Candy Rosé Teardrop earrings $375 | 4. Dior Jeweled Logo Necklace $190 | 5. Elizabeth & James sterling silver knuckle ring $195 | 6. Nordstrom crystal bangles set $98 | 7. Kate Spade hinged bangle $88 | 8. David Yurman sterling silver link bracelet $650

My tastes in jewelry run the gamut from costume to fine (and admittedly most of the time that so-called gamut is skewed dangerously toward the David Yurman end–I’ve collected about 6 DY pieces over the years). But when you’re gifting a jewelry lover, it is what it is. My favorite places to shop for that hard-to-find jewelry-wearing gal (who may just be yourself) are Saks 5th Avenue, and Nordstrom. Neiman Marcus is also a great place, if you have it in your area. (Is it a Southern thing? Am I having a dumb blonde moment?)
