I design the jewelry that blends seamlessly into your life, whatever your style may be. Your favorite pieces of clothing and jewelry should be worthy of being worn with everything you have already invested in.
If you are just joining us for the first time, welcome, I am a fashion-turned-jewelry designer and the STYLE LAB series continues with a fusion of new jewelry arrivals and collector favorites, styled into three different categories.
Featured in today's STYLE LAB is the modern minimalist in an all white high/low metal mash up, a relaxed and casual bohemian vibe with mingling metals and black gemstones, and the quintessential classic chic in yellow and rose gold.
Let's get to it...
Modern and/or being a minimalist can mean something different to you than what I have styled here.
For the girl that likes to layer her jewelry (I think that is most of us) this is definitely a more minimalist look. I wanted to use a high/low blend of silver, white gold, and platinum to make this monochromatic look POP!
When I wear white metals, I always mix them with yellow and rose gold, but my eye is drawn to an all white look, if it is done well. Here, the jewelry and accessories is the sole focus, but the clothes and cosmetics are right in line with a modern statement.
Here are the new arrivals...
The next bangle to add to your Legacy stack is our diamond bangle from the ETERNAL COLLECTION in 14K White Gold. Super chic worn on its own, with your watch, or a charm bracelet. Use as a jumping off point or add to your legacy stack. This bangle is versatile, a lighter weight, and feels so comfortable on. You may even forget it is there. I am excited to own a few of these myself - if I can sneak a few past the husband ;)
My version of the dog tag shown in platinum and diamonds, baring my husband's name. Of course, I made his in platinum - the preferred metal for a man. This is true, I have been doing in-person research and men want to purchase platinum over any other precious metal!
Because I love variety, my dog tag is also available in gold in yellow, rose, and white gold plus she's customizable in your favorite faceted gemstones! Just want a single letter, or a number - all you need to do is ask! But, more are on the way in fun combinations, fear not.

And of course, the statement Retiarri earring, which is as you know, is my logo! Retiarri is comprised of shields which represent a modern-day talisman and aids in protection, to shield ourselves. Retiarri is a bestseller and hard to keep in stock! Lucky for you, I have some right now...

Does this look make you want to kick back, relax? Pass the sangria, and listen to some great music with friends in the garden? Wear this look and you will instantly feel like you are living a life of leisure.
I love a big bold boho print against a simple ensemble. A bohemian look is so accessible because it can be achieved at all price points, and anything goes. I chose to throw in some black gemstones, to give this vibe a little edge. Remove the jacket, switch with black, and voila - back to modern or classic chic!
Give it a try this summer, and if you do, tag me in a picture! Head on over to Walmart, Target, Nordstrom, or Saks to pick up something for your version. I can't wait to see ;)
The jewels in this boho layout is a mix of new and collector favorites, but they all work.
Black diamond initials are a new twist on the classics, choose which combo is best for you! Shown on an 18K ruthenium black chain, it is elegant and sophisticated in real-life. Popular with collectors, and I also own a necklace with my children's initials, which I will show you in an upcoming post very soon.
Collectors, black chains are here to stay and this one is exceptional. Choose your charm here.

A single cocktail ring with ample finger span is always fun. The secret is, this particular ring can be collected over time through purchases of individual stacking rings and once collected, fused together to make one ring! However, if you are ready for it all at once, this ring is currently available and looking for her forever home.

I adore white gold and rose gold together. This blend of gold, when accented with bright, flashing diamonds creates an ethereal affect. I like black gemstones, and oxidized metals to elevate the drama in the bohemian boundaries, giving it an undone feel.

For the last layout in this STYLE LAB, I would be remiss if I did not pay tribute to the classics. Blue and white reigns supreme in decor, fashion, and jewelry, and a color of historical significance.
Whether you live at the beach, in the city, or rolling hills of the countryside, this look is adaptable for the lifestyle you live in the tried-and-true classic colors of navy and white.
Jeans. Everyday, all day. No questions there. Pair with your best jewelry, of-the-moment shoes, dress up or down. Sometimes I think jewelry and jeans work best, because jewelry shines the most when you are comfortable.
Comfort in jewelry, now that is another important thing. I have achieved that with my high-karat signet ring. Bold in iconic design, yet melds into your finger, becomes part of you.
Sometimes you only need one important ring, and this one has it in spades. Handcrafted in 22K yellow gold with a custom cut Top Notch Faceting gemstone, a rare and collectable phenakite, this ring was also recognized in the prestigious Indesign jewelry awards - taking second place in the gold category!
Signets are classic, a must-have in your collection. More are on the way...

Two stars are always better than one - to attract double the luck! Choose to layer singularly, or wear one adorned in sapphire and diamond, in our newest duality star, the double-sided Lucky Star.

I am completely smitten with my Lucky Star heart charm for it's hefty weight, the fact that it is completely 3D! If you love hearts, than my heart should be on your radar, just sayin'.
A heart charm is a forever favorite in every collector's jewelry box. I recently met a collector that has a full charm bracelet of only hearts. You know that gave me an idea ;)

And of course, the bangle, the perfect complement to everything you own, in the classic combo of yellow gold and diamonds, mixed with the same in rose gold. Yes, you can mix rose and yellow gold, and I do it all of the time.

When photographing jewelry, it is incredibly difficult to capture the lustre and brilliance of each piece. You see variations in gold due to the different photography styles, lighting and situation. I invite you to follow my Instagram and Facebook pages for styled, real-life images and videos of each piece. If you have any questions, I am here to help you with your fine jewelry purchases.
