April was predictably dripping in diamonds (in inbox speak, at least), but what surprised me more was the sheer number of necklaces that came through my email—and big, eye-catching ones at that.
We’re definitely in steadfast statement territory, where a single powerful necklace takes the stage over all else. If there’s one category to beef up on as summer comes through, the necklace looks to be it.
Of course, that doesn’t mean we’re left wanting for covet-worthy rings, earrings, and bracelets—and even a couple of sea-inspired jewels just in time for summer travels.
Here are some favorite jewels from my April inbox.
