Necklace// Cuff Bracelet
However, I do think there is a time and place for Costume Jewelry, and some outfits truly *need* it. I thought I would share two pieces of costume jewelry that I have gotten over the past year or two that I have been reaching for over and over. I believe these are classic pieces that won't necessarily date an outfit. What I also love about them is that they are plain metallic, so they pair with most outfits. They are more of a subtle statement relative to other pieces out there, and I find that's what works best with my wardrobe!
Not only are these two pieces classic and beautiful, but they're not cheaply made. The necklace is lightweight but high-quality. I like that it is lightweight because it makes it comfortable to wear. The bracelets are heavy and feel substantial. The only downside with the weight of the bracelets is that traveling with two of them probably adds a whole pound to my luggage! I think the look of the bracelet has a Bulgari Tubogas vibe which I love. At right around $100 for the necklace and $140, I find their prices to be inexpensive for how nice they are! I also like to travel with these pieces. I would be sad if I lost them or if they were stolen but they would be easily replaceable.
I really love the look of the cuff bracelets stacked. I have two, but honestly considering a third for an even bolder look. I prefer wearing the necklace with a high neck top. I think the gold kind of blends in with my skin so wearing it over clothing really helps to make it pop!
You can see many ways I have styled the pieces over different seasons.
