Remember rummaging through your grandmother’s jewelry box as a little girl and trying on all of her old jewelry? It was always so much fun to pick out the really shiny, jeweled pieces and dress up with them until our little hearts were content. Maybe it’s the sentimental nostalgia of it all, or perhaps simply the fact that all of granny’s jewelry had a certain je ne sais quoi about it, but we still love dressing up with vintage-looking jewelry.
Fortunately for us (and you), there are so many vintage-inspired and antiqued jewelry pieces to choose from right here at Max and Chloe. What’s amazing about this type of jewelry is that every bit of it is timeless and classic, as opposed to old-fashioned. They looked great in the past, they are fabulous for the present, and will bring beautiful style to your collection for years to come.
For starters, Carolee Antique Worn Gold Multi-Strand Necklace is a fabulously chic piece that has a wonderfully vintage feel. It’s got an old-Hollywood vibe to it that brings to mind those glamorous starlets or days gone by like Audrey Hepburn or Bette Davis. The rich gold tones and luxurious pearls are just begging to be shown off. The necklace pairs perfectly with Anya Jewels Citrine Chandelier Earrings. This pair stays in line with the color scheme of the antiqued gold in the necklace, but adds a bit of sparkle to your look with the gorgeously faceted citrine stones. They are flashy without looking gaudy.
To finish off your polished look that Judy Garland would be proud of, slip into Courtney Simmelkjaer’s Riverstone Bracelet. It perfectly coordinates with the other two pieces for a completely classic look. The large round riverstones will keep with your overall jewelry theme, but have a mottled white color that gives it a naturally antiqued look.
Vintage jewelry is so fun and versatile that you can wear it whether you are dressed up or dressed down. With celebrities like Katy Perry sporting full-on vintage duds, there has never been a better time to play with your look. Some key elements to look for when shopping for vintage-inspired jewelry are pearls, richly colored stones, and oxidized or antiqued metals. Pair your new jewels with some fabulous vintage clothing, and the rest is up to you. So go ahead, and have a ball reliving those little girl days full of rings and pendants and brooches (oh my!).
