Jade bangles are heirloom pieces meant to be treasured and passed on, so choosing one made with high quality stone is important. For a modern take on jade, opt for a piece that’s got that extra something, like this one from Gen.K Jewelry, made with 9-karat white and yellow gold.

A pendant necklace is always chic, and wearing one with a simple black or white t-shirt dresses up the whole look. Wearing it with a low v-neck top also helps to elongate your entire frame. To make a pendant necklace more meaningful, get one to mark a milestone achievement, like buying your first apartment or getting that big promotion at work.

Celebrate your birthday all year round by wearing your birthstone; they’re a beautiful way to represent another year around the sun… or in the case of those born in June, another year around the Moon(stone).

A statement necklace may seem extravagant, but investing in one can elevate any outfit or bring a party outfit to the next level. If you’re only going to buy one, make sure it’s representative of your signature style so it goes with everything in your wardrobe, and so you’ll wear it for years to come.
