Great jewelry for office parties
The holidays are fast approaching, and for many employees, that means the annual office party is on its way. It'll be hard to top the stunning outfit you wore last year, but with the right Brian Gavin jewelry, you are sure to wow your coworkers. Start planning now to have your fine jewelry needs met in time for party season.
Keep it subtle
The best way to play up your natural features is to highlight them, not overwhelm them. Jewelry for an office party should be elegant and understated so everyone you talk to is focused on you. Of course, you can use your jewelry to start the conversation. A perfect pair of earrings to keep your accessory ensemble simple are the Bezel Stud Drops. These handmade earrings feature Brian Gavin Signature melee and can be purchased in white, yellow or rose gold. The drops hang 2 inches total, framing your face perfectly.
If you want to go for a bigger statement, choose one piece of jewelry as the focal point. A large necklace or opulent earrings should be paired with thin pieces. If you go the statement route, also keep your wardrobe understated. A simple black cocktail dress will pair well with Extended Chandeliers. These 14k white gold earrings feature G/VS round brilliant diamond melee.
Stay classic
Office party ensembles are all about taking business wear and transforming it into formal wear. The clean, sharp lines you wear to work should be in your party outfit as well. Like your clothes, your jewelry should exude class and timelessness. There are few pieces of jewelry as long admired as the diamond tennis bracelet. The Brian Gavin team offers this treasure in several settings, including a Half Bezel Tennis Bracelet. With Brian Gavin Signature melee decorating your wrist, your party attire is sure to wow the crowd.
The two-thirds rule
Occasions like an office party require you to dress up, but not too much. A simple way to make sure you're fitting the unofficial dress code is with the two-thirds rule. There are three general types of jewelry: earrings, necklaces and bracelets. Pick two of the three to wear. You get a freebie on rings, as most people who wear them are married. If you want to include a pendant necklace in your evening outfit, Diamonds by the Yard is perfect. The 16-inch chain carries seven handmade bezels that nestle Signature melee. Other lengths are available upon request.
