I’m not sure if it’s the cluster effect of the cuts—rounds, kites, princesses, and baguettes—in these darling little studs that has me smitten or if it is the vibrant color combination, but they will certainly be a standout in any collection. New York City–based designer Kerri Halpern of Madstone turned an assortment of tiny colorful stones into a sassy and fun pair of modern earrings that are memorable and attainable at $2,800 a pair. The design inspiration may be melting ice, but the overall effect is easy to warm up to.

Cluster earrings from the Melting Ice collection in 18k yellow gold with 0.3 ct. t.w. amethysts, 0.3 ct. diamond, and 0.2 ct. t.w. pink sapphires, $2,800
