Why Jewelry is Fun!

I love jewelry! Matching my jewelry with my day to day outfits is so fun! Adding that pop of color to a simpler outfit makes that statement I am going for. I also get enjoyment when I wear my diamond cross pendant with a simple, elegant white gold chain. Expressing my religion is very important to me and an important part to who I am as a person, therefore it brings me joy wearing those pieces of jewelry.

I love how jewelry is an expression of oneself and really has no right or wrong to it, because everyone is different and has different tastes. From the trends of layering multiple chains together, to stacking rings on the same finger, jewelry is meant to be a reflection of who you are! For instance, when i wear my pearl necklace with my white gold and diamond dangle pearl earrings it makes me feel sophisticated and classic! Others may say, “pearls are so out of style” but that is just another example of how jewelry unique to each individual. I am more of a subtle jewelry wearer because thats the kind of person I am, quiet and traditional. I do not care for large, gaudy cocktail rings, or large colored gemstone rings….and yet still love my diamonds and amethyst dangle earrings. Others love that big, loud style and it looks great on them…more power to ya! =)

Most importantly, Jewelry also often has a lot of sentimental attachment- more than likely many of our customers have seen me wear a yellow gold omega chain. I love that chain because it was given to me by a special family member, and jewelry is unique in that often its a gift that someone can keep their entire life if they take care of it. There aren’t many other things you can give a high schooler that they will still love when they are 40. I love my iPad and my iPhone, but in 5 years they will be completely obsolete and practically worthless. The jewelry I’ve been given will last me my whole lifetime, and then I hope to be able to pass them down!

I hope you enjoyed this lil article, I promise to write you guys something again soon!

Gifts for Her

|Categories: Informational|Tags: , , , , , , , , |

If you are looking to buy jewelry as a gift for a wife, girlfriend, or mom, it can be difficult to choose. Jewelry comes in many shapes and sizes, and there are many options to choose from. If you come to Silver City, our jewelry specialists will help you choose a great gift. If you can’t come in or you’d like think about it ahead of time, this is a quick guide to get you on the right track.

Yellow or White Gold?

Most women either wear only yellow or only white gold. If you aren’t sure which one she likes, look at the jewelry she’s wearing next time you see her. If she wears no jewelry at all or you can’t figure it out, today’s most popular choice for women is to wear white gold.

Birthstones or Diamonds?

If you are looking for a nice piece of jewelry without breaking the budget, a piece with a birthstone is always the first place we recommend. Birthstones are thoughtful, traditional, and sentimental. At Silver City, we have a huge inventory of birthstone jewelry, with genuine and lab-created varieties available. If you want a custom approach instead, we can make a piece to your exact specifications. If you don’t know that she loves her birthstone, or you want to make a bigger statement, diamond jewelry is always a winner. There are diamond pieces of all kinds available at many price points. You don’t have to spend a fortune to buy a nice diamond piece!

Earrings, Pendants, Rings, Necklaces, or Bracelets?

Earrings are a piece of jewelry that most girls can never have too many of. A nice pair of birthstone earrings is always a solid, affordable choice if you aren’t sure what she likes. Rings are the next most consistent choice, if you know the kind of ring she likes. Some women love large stones, and some prefer subtle, petite rings. Like earrings, women can always have more than one ring! If you know that she has a nice chain to hang it from, then pendants are also a lovely gift. Pendants, like rings and earrings, have the advantage of being useful to women for matching specific outfits. If you know that she doesn’t have a nice chain, then that may be the best answer for you. Women’s chains are usually one of the cheapest jewelry options, and you may have enough money left over to buy her a pendant too! Finally, if none of these options sound like the right answer, there are bracelets and gemstone necklaces available. Bracelets and necklaces usually have much more metal in them than other pieces, which can increase costs, but they are also often more impressive.

Still not sure? Come see us!

Our staff are expert jewelry professionals, and we will go through our huge inventory with you to find a piece you (and she) will love!
