Creating Your Jewelry Wardrobe: The Top 5 Must-Haves
An elegant jewelry collection brings an effortless glow to any outfit. To transcend passing trends, however, you need to carefully curate a selection of versatile classics you’ll reach for again and again. Here are the five timeless must-haves for your jewelry collection, along with some tips on creating a capsule jewelry wardrobe that will dazzle for years to come.
The Power of a Capsule Jewelry Wardrobe
A capsule jewelry wardrobe centers around a thoughtfully curated collection of exquisite essentials designed to mix, match, and layer. This selective approach saves you from accumulating an overwhelming jumble of mismatched pieces you rarely wear.
Instead, a capsule jewelry wardrobe offers a versatile, coordinated selection that enables countless elegant combinations suitable for both everyday wear and special occasions.
John Atencio’s 5 Must-Have Jewelry Wardrobe Essentials
When creating your jewelry wardrobe, it’s best to start with iconic jewelry staples. That said, you don’t necessarily have to limit yourself to the same classic jewelry wardrobe your parents wore. John Atencio offers timeless designs with a contemporary artistic flair that brings a uniquely alluring edge to the five must-have iconic jewelry classics:
1. Diamond Stud Earrings
A pair of diamond stud earrings brings subtle sparkle to any look. Endlessly versatile, these dazzling yet understated earrings complement both dressy and casual wear. They also make an especially meaningful gift to celebrate a special occasion.
When designing his distinctive diamond studs, John Atencio applies the same bold creativity he uses for every single jewelry piece in his expansive collection. This gives customers an astounding variety of options, including his dazzling Orion studs, bold Devotion earrings, and eye-catching Treasure earrings with a brilliant cluster of fiery diamond stones.
2. Pearl Necklaces
Luminous pearls cast a flattering glow suited to both day and evening wear. Strands of classic delicate freshwater pearls create lightweight layering necklaces. Meanwhile, uniquely designed pearl pieces make an ultra-glamorous statement.
Take, for instance, John Atencio’s Solar pearl necklace. Solar brings John’s hallmark circles, triangles, and lines to the forefront, symbolizing the struggles we all face in balancing family, relationships, and communication. Current and lasting, John’s Solar pearl necklace adds an element of individuality along with deep meaning that makes this iconic piece especially unique.
3. Diamond Pendant Necklaces
