1. Diamond Necklace: Diamonds are beautiful and always in season.  Invest in a necklace you’ll wear every day. While a simple solitaire is always pretty, we opted for an understated diamond web necklace. Pictured $1267

2. Diamond Studs: Diamond studs are the perfect every day accessory. Start small and work your way up to football player status with our diamond trade-in program. Starting at $349. Pictured: $4050

3. Diamond Tennis Bracelet: Who doesn’t dream of wrapping their wrist in diamonds!? Tennis bracelets combine old Hollywood glamour with the trends of today. Wear your diamond tennis bracelet alone, or pair it with a watch or other bracelets for a gorgeous stackable look. Pictured: $7232

4. Pearl Studs: The bigger the better here. Pearl studs are incredibly affordable and add instant class to any outfit. Plus, pearls are suitable for work, weddings, and everything in between. Pictured: $129

5. Pearl Necklace: A nice strand of pearls is timeless and transcends generations. While you can’t go wrong with white pearls, multi-color pearls add a fun twist on a jewelry classic. Pictured: White strand $725, Multi-color strand $1188
