Monday Must-Haves: Spring & Summer Jewelry

Here are four pieces of jewelry I haven't been able to live without this Spring! 

The Tassel Necklace

Great with v-neck t's, plain tops and dresses to add some spice to the outfit. With silver and gold and a removable tassel, this necklace goes with everything--I have to stop myself from wearing it every day! The tassel can be removed for a simpler look, and better for boat neck or round neck tops. Find it HERE via Stella & Dot.

Given my allergy to lead and nickel--I am not able to wear Kendra Scott, but I have a couple friends who just love her pieces. I'm virtually obsessed with this tassel necklace below!

Find it HERE on Nordstrom

Statement Earrings

These were a birthday present from my hubby, and they are great to have around for special occasions such as weddings, parties, dinners, or a night on the town. They can jazz up a plain black or white dress--who doesn't need a little sparkle? Mine are made by Swarovski.


Here are some of my favorites seen online:
Crystal Chandelier Earring via White House Black Market
Long Earrings via Zara

Stud Earrings

These are my go-to during the work week! From left to right: A nice diamond stud (these were my grandmothers--I love the different shape, it is called marquee), a simple stud to accent a color (Kenneth Cole), silver studs with a tannish CZ stone (from my favorite German designer, I stock up when I get to Aachen!), and gold and white to go with all my ivory and white tops, or anytime I need a pop of neutral (from C. Wonder)!


My rule of thumb is to keep your colored jewelry in the same color family as your outfit--if you are trying to accent. For example: a light, dark or mustard yellow top with yellow earrings, etc. Blue dress with blue mostly blue earrings. Obviously with black and white, and even grey, pops of color are perfect. Neon  in small doses, ladies! Ever heard of too much of a good thing?! This is where color applies.

Statement Cuff

I'm a little leery of cuffs, given my short arms. However, I found this awesome Zara piece when paired with white shorts, pants or jeans, it can really bring the outfit together. Plus, with geometric patterns in style right now, this adds the perfect shape to your outfit without the hefty price tag! You can buy it HERE.

Here are some other cuff options that have caught my eye...
