    Now that we have talked a little bit about why this type of jewelry is so bad – let’s dive on into another piece of Christmas jewelry that does not look the best but really is not all that bad … sort of.  This is actually a pair of earrings and while I am all for cute pieces of jewelry, this looks a little too cute.

    Also – what would you wear these earrings with?  A hideous sweater at a hideous sweater party?  That is probably what I am guessing but why waste your money?  Christmas-themed jewelry and clothing is something that I have never been a fan of.  There are better ways to spread your Christmas cheer than fashioning yourself down.

    So remember – cutesy things like this are not fashionable and I can tell you that they do not look good … on anyone!

    Christmas Jewelry

    Jewelry is something that is not only fashionable most of the time but also something that is personal.  I have to say however that right around Christmas time, some of the most hideous pieces of jewelry is brought out – and that is what we are going to cover in the next couple blogs. 

    There is a standard in which most people follow when they are picking out jewelry and around Christmas time that standard seems to go down.  Christmas jewelry is terrible most of the time – like these pins for example.  These pins are the perfect example of jewelry that you should not be wearing.

    First off – these pins do not go with anything at all and second, they are only good for one time of year and nothing else.  That does not make sense to spend your money on them!  More Christmas jewelry in the next blog.

    snake necklaceNathan and Moe made its debut back in 2002, in the month of March. It is the work of Nancy Liebowitz, a jewelry designer born in New York City. The line is eclectic, elegant, fashionable, and utterly stylish — as well it should be, because prior to creating her line, Nancy Liebowitz was a publicist for three of Proctor and Gamble’s popular daytime dramas: Another World, As the World Turns, and Guiding Light, where style reigned.

    This elegant, sinuous Snack Necklace is a gorgeous example of her work — and it explains why celebrities like Salma Hayek, Nicole Ritchie, Eva Longoria, and Lindsay Lohan have all worn her jewelry.

    It is slick but dainty, not to mention completely one of a kind. The necklace is double stranded, plated in 14k gold, and it features a smooth little snake charm.

    charm earringsStephen Dweck is a highly renowned jewelry, a talent who went to New York City’s School of Visual Arts. There, he began with carving stone bangles — by hand. That speaks volumes of his talent then, and what it has evolved into now.

    This is good news for you, because he now has some pieces which speak to a growing trend: charms. But we are not talking about the standard charm bracelet here, oh no.
    These are Stephen Dweck’s Heart Dangle Earrings with Charms. They come from the famed Garden of Stephen collection. They feature a crescent moon of lapis, flowers made of malachite, and spades made of turquoise. These charms dangle from a red heart of carnelian.

    panageaRussian born artist and designer Dmitriy Pavlov has had exhibitions all over the world, earning him worldwide renown. He is considered world class when it comes to his talent as a goldsmith and as an artist. His jewelry pieces are handcrafted, focusing on metal art done in exquisite miniature.

    This gemstone Panagea Pendant is a great example of his gorgeous, intricate work. It contains green peridots, white diamonds, and green chrysophrase, all put together to create an exquisite final product.

    Though normally not a fan of yellow gold, even I have to admit that the green peridot makes a stunning complement to the gold.  The necklace is bright and bold without ever veering into the realm of gaudy.  It is at once antique looking but edgy.
