Splurge vs Steal – Statement Jewelry Edition

If you haven’t noticed by now, I love me some statement jewelry. Whether it’s necklaces, earrings, or large cuffs, I simply cannot walk out the door without adding some sparkle to my look. For this edition of Splurge vs Steal, I thought I’d share some of my favorite types of statement pieces that will work for any budget.

DRUZY RING

I think druzy is just so gorgeous. I particularly love it on rings, as I think it’s a feminine yet fun way to add some flair to any look. They look really expensive, yet there are a lot of affordable options out there.

STATEMENT NECKLACE

I am addicted to statement necklaces. Any size, any shape, any color. Just give me all the statement necklaces. For winter, I particularly love the black and emerald color combo.

DROP EARRINGS

Much like statement necklaces, my collection of drop earrings is also embarrassingly large. I think with a sleek pony and a pretty dress, drop earrings can make you look so chic and polished. At the same time, these earrings added to jeans and a tshirt make for the perfect daytime look. I really love these dreamy shades of blue.

GOLD CUFF

I am a watch girl. I always have either an over-sized boyfriend watch or a delicate feminine watch on my wrist. However, sometimes it’s fun to shake things up and throw on a big cuff that calls for no other arm party attendees. I think these are so pretty and so easy to throw on and head out the door.
