January Jewels 31: Tiffany Key Necklace

What girl doesn't dream of owning a Tiffany Necklace one day?

I especially love the key necklaces ever since watching Zoey 101 back in the day. She didn't have a Tiffany necklace; she just wore her room key around her neck because she always forgot it. But she painted it and made it look pretty.

Anyways back to today's pick: Tiffany's Crown Key pendant in 18k rose-gold.

Check out details here:

Considering the general price of Tiffany jewelry, this isn't too bad. But still, not something I can pick up anytime soon.

Anyways, hope you enjoyed January Jewels this month. Stay tuned for next month's featured products!

January Jewels 30: Chanel Camélia Necklace

Today's wishlist piece is a Chanel necklace in white gold with diamonds. It's a statement piece that kind of reminds me of those necklaces that look like ties. But of course, it wouldn't be Chanel-esque is it wasn't classier and beautiful.

For details:

It doesn't say the price online, but one could only guess that it is about to be really expensive.

January Jewels 29: Champagne Pop Bracelet

For the last few days of the month, I thought I'd start sharing some of the jewelry pieces that I would eventually like to buy.

Today, I have a bracelet, which is a first because I'm not a big fan of arm candy. But this one is so pretty! It's from Baublebar. It has It has rose-gold baubles with alternating baubles of white and rose-gold stones. Absolutely stunning.

January Jewels 28: Black Chunky Necklace

Today's piece is a chunky necklace with black, white and silver beads of all different shapes and sizes.

I've mentioned before that I like silver jewelry better than gold. This necklace is one of my top picks as far as statement necklaces go. Since it has neutral colors, it'll go with any shade your dress is in.

This necklace was purchased at New York & Company.

January Jewels 27: Gunmetal Heart Ring

This ring has seen a lot of love. I wore it almost everyday, even though it is large. The only slightly annoying thing is that the hearts go all the way around, so you can't make a tight fist with this ring on...

January Jewels 26: Silver Flower Ring

Today I have a silver ring with a large flower set with many white stones. Definitely a statement piece. Definitely sticks out when you're wearing it.

January Jewels 25: Multicolor Stone Ring

Talk about flashy! This is a really big ring with lots of bright stones on it. Mainly blue, but some other colors too. The back of the ring is stretchy again, so it's a one-size fits all.

January Jewels 24: Pink Stone Necklace

I love love love this necklace. There are so many different kinds of stones and beads on this necklace and I love that it isn't symmetrical, matching or in a pattern. I have a lot of pictures of this one so you can really see all the colors and textures.

This necklace was purchased at New York and Company.

January Jewels 23: Pink Statement Ring

This is the first statement ring I ever bought. The ring is stretchy around the back. The front has fairly large "gems" in light and darker pink. It also has 3 large pearls. And finally it has a little hand mirror charm on it. 

I do think at some point it had a little high heeled shoe dangling from it too, but that broke off as soon as I got it.

January Jewels 22: Brushed Gold Ring

Alright, time to start showing off the bigger pieces. Today I have a brushed gold statement ring. Not too large, but still definitely noticeable. I love the intricate metalwork going on here, and the antique-y look that this ring has.

January Jewels 21: Silver Ring with White Stone

Ok, I promise this is the last piece of jewelry I have from Charlotte Russe. But they have such great pieces and they are pretty inexpensive.

This is a silver ring, similar to the one I featured a couple of days ago, but this one has a white stone in the center. It's similar to the gold ring from yesterday in that it has indentations around the stone. Gotta love the texture!

January Jewels 20: Gold Ring with White Stone

I love this gold ring. It has a small white stone in the center. It's subtle but pretty. A more fancy everyday ring. I also like the slight texture of the ring around the stone.

January Jewels 19: Silver Ring with Pink Stone

Today's featured piece is once again a ring from Charlotte Russe. It's a simple silver ring with a relatively large pink stone in the center. Halfway between a statement piece and an everyday ring.

January Jewels 18: Gold Ring with White Stones

Gold with white stones always look so rich.
Today's piece has white stones all the way around the gold ring.

This ring was purchased from Charlotte Russe.

January Jewels 17: White Stone Necklace

I love wearing this necklace for a semi-formal or dressier occasion. It's thin and delicate, and sits right on my collarbone. 

Around the necklace there are small groups of three white stones. In the middle, there are three larger groups of stones.

January Jewels 16: Blue Necklace

A small, silver necklace with pastel blue stones. The larger stones are almost foggy. And there are small white stones in between the larger ones. It's pretty short, so it lies close around your neck.

January Jewels 15: Gold Earrings

Sometimes, I like my earrings to be a bit flashy. And these gold earrings do the trick. They are long, and have bunches of gold sequin-type things hanging from them. Great for a night out!

These earrings were purchased from Claire's.

January Jewels 14: Tire Ring

I call it a tire ring, because that is what the texture kinda reminds me of. This silver ring has small grooves all around the ring.

This ring was purchased from Charlotte Russe.

January Jewels 13: Flattened Silver Ring

Today's piece is a silver ring (again). It has some markings on it, not really representing a specific shape. The ring is also flattened, if you can tell from the pictures. However, that doesn't make it harder to wear.

This ring was purchased from Charlotte Russe.

January Jewels 12: Chanel Logo Ring

I bought this Chanel ring at a flea market actually. It was $8. So, I'm completely aware that this is a knockoff. In fact, I don't know if Chanel even makes jewelry like this, with it's logo on it. But still, I thought it was pretty, simple and a great everyday ring.

NO picture, sorry.

January Jewels 11: Violet Earrings

Violet gives a pop of color. With these earrings, it is a small pop, but a pop nevertheless. The metal around is a dark silver. The stones are set in a clover-type pattern.

January Jewels 10: Heart Necklace (small)

1 week later, I'm posting about another heart necklace. This one, I wear much more often. It's smaller, simpler and seems more like an everyday type necklace. It's a bright, shiny silver and the heart has some small stones in it that reflect different colors.

January Jewels 9: Silver Ring with Pyramids

Ok, not legit pyramids. But it's a pyramid-like shape around half the ring. And it's silver.

This ring was purchased at Charlotte Russe.

January Jewels 8: Silver Pearl Ring

Pearls = classy. In my eyes, this is always true.
This is a nice, simple classy silver ring, with a large pearl in the middle. There are also 3 small white stones on each side of the pearl.

This ring was purchased at Charlotte Russe.

January Jewels 7: Gold Flowered Rings

Today I have a pair of rings, that are meant to be worn together, though of course you could wear them separately if you wanted. I've always worn them together. 

The rings have a rope-like band and cream flowers on them. The ring with the larger flower has a small pearl in the middle. The gold and cream make these rings very delicate and feminine, like many other pieces I own.

These rings were purchased at Charlotte Russe.

January Jewels 6: Gold Bow Ring

This gold bow ring is so feminine and pretty! I love wearing it when I'm wearing a super girly outfit :)

This ring was purchased at Charlotte Russe.

January Jewels 5: Brown and White Pearl Choker and Bracelet

I've always loved how pearls look so classy, elegant and chic. I got this choker and bracelet as a set. I typical don't wear them together since it starts to get to matchy-matchy for me, but I love the way the look and since it has such neutral colors, I get a lot of use out of it.

January Jewels 4: Heart Necklace (Large)

It's almost like a locket, but the back of the heart is hollow. This is a silver necklace with black stones on the heart. The chain is simple so that the heart pendant really stands out. This  is such a simple, elegant piece.

January Jewels 3: Gold Necklace with Small Beads

I love necklaces with a lot of strands that naturally create a layered look. Especially when they have asymmetrical, differently shaped beads or stones on them. This necklace has the same small gold beads throughout on 5 strands, but you can move them around wherever you want on the strands and create different designs.

This necklace was purchased at Claire's.

January Jewels 2: Silver Detailed Ring

Today I want to share my favorite ring to pair with yesterday's Love Ring. It's silver again, and has an intricate design of vines and buds on it.

This ring was purchased at Charlotte Russe.

365 Days of Blogging! + January Jewels 1: Love Ring

The year of 2013 is bringing some changes to this blog. I'm going to change it up this year and do a year-long project called 365 Days of Blogging. I want to post everyday, featuring a different product and every month will have a common theme. Over the year, the themes will be of things that I'm interested in obviously. If anyone else decides they want to do this too, please post a link of your blog, I'd love to check it out. 

The beauty product reviews are going to put on break for this year I think. If I have some extra time at some point and I can do product reviews in addition to my daily posts I'll do it, but I can't make any promises.


So start off the new year, I decided to do January Jewels. Everyday this month, I'll feature a jewelry piece that I have or wish I owned. Today's piece is my Love ring. I've wanted one of these for a long time, and I finally got one for Christmas. It's silver, which is great because I usually tend to wear silver jewelry.





This ring was purchased at Charlotte Russe.
