11 Jewelry Instagrams by Nonjewelry People

It’s one of the best worlds you can be absorbed in, one with jewelry. I do it by writing about trends based on styles I see most often; I use press materials from designers and manufacturers, peruse blogs (both jewelry and non), and of course spend way too much time on Instagram. While I follow plenty of jewelers on the social platform, there’s a big mix of others in there, too. My hobbies outside the jewelry world (does this sound like a resume or dating profile to you, too?) include plenty of travel, food, soccer, and—a surprise to no one—anything Disney-related. The Instagram accounts I follow reflect that. Rounding out the “other” category is a handful of fashion and lifestyle bloggers, many of whom you could argue are pretty tuned-in to the jewelry world; some are even paid to post about jewelry. But when two worlds collide and I get a good glimpse of jewelry on one of those other accounts, now that is a joy. Because you can see the jewelry industry’s influence—that of every single person who works in it—translating to the real world (well, sort of—see previous note about bloggers’ sponsored posts).

TL;DR: So basically this is my long-winded way of saying sometimes people who aren’t strictly jewelry designers or bloggers post photos of jewelry. And it’s pretty cool. Here are the latest to get my double tap.
