It can be difficult to find the right gift for someone, and it can also be hard to shop for jewellery. It seems like a few weeks away, no matter where you are in the year. If you haven’t started thinking about gifts for the special lady in your family, now is the time. One smart way to do this is to choose jewellery.

Although jewellery is often regarded as a reliable gift, it is not easy to find the right one. The process can be overwhelming with distracting embellishments, a variety of brands, and many styles one cannot even understand…

Where do you start? We love the unique designs of luxury houses and award-winning independent jewelers, but we also love the elegant options that are affordable. Here are some of our favorite names in women’s jewelry right now.

MISSOMA

Missoma is all over Instagram, TikTok, and almost everyone’s jewellery wishlist. The extensive range of products includes delicate gold rings with freshwater pearls and bohemian-inspired necklaces that are layered over each other. Every piece in this influencer-favorite collection is sure to bring smiles when unwrapped. At missoma.com

THOMAS SABO

Thomas Sabo’s crowns are filled with royal themes and celestial imagery. The label is innovative and expressive. It offers a variety of layering pieces as well as more dramatic, bold designs. Thomas Sabo’s designs feature stars, skulls, and crucifixes, as well as delicate diamond embellishments and the famous love knot motif. This label is all about capturing the essence and distilling it into a pendant or ring, or bracelet, that can be worn as wearable art. Thomas Sabo allows you to express what you feel with a gift.

MEJURI

Mejuri’s everyday fine jewelry is a favorite for women who are fashion-conscious and work in womenswear. You will find a wide range of 14kt gold staples, including croissant dome earrings and chain necklaces as well as square signet rings. Each piece is packaged in an elegant dust bag and comes with a box. This makes it the perfect gift option for the holiday season. You’ll also find a holiday collection.

GUCCI

Gucci, designed by Alessandro Michele, is a classic in modern fashion. Its unique combination of Hollywood glamour and 1980s style references makes it a true icon. The jewellery collection of the house is filled with vibrant embellishments and antique-effect gold, as well as geometric patterns that were heavily influenced from the label’s own archival materials.

& OTHER STORIES

Are you looking for a stylish gift that won’t break your bank but still looks elegant? & Other Stories has you covered. Revolving accessories from Other Stories, a high-street store, are simple and effective. Many of them are made from recycled brass or recycled sterling silver. This is the ideal place to stock up on stylish stocking stuffers with Christmas right around the corner. Its collection of rings, wavy-hoop earrings, and layer pearl pendant necklace are all great. It’s easy wins. Stories.com

SWAROVSKI

Swarovski is a well-respected brand in the jewellery business. This is because all of its designs are of the highest quality and stylish. It is therefore the ideal place to start when shopping for Christmas gifts, regardless of whether your recipient prefers a bold birthstone pendant, or a pair of ortyx hoop earrings. You can start by looking at the “gifts to her” section. FYI: If you spend $150 you will receive a gorgeous Ginger bracelet and pouch. Swarovski.com

SAINT LAURENT

Saint Laurent is one of the most iconic fashion brands. If a piece from the French house’s jewelry rests above the giftee’s outfit, it will instantly elevate their style points. We recommend that first-time shoppers start with a logo-framed design. This could be a bracelet, threader earrings, or statement broach. These are all simple, but they will be fashionable.

SERGE DENIMES

Serge DeNimes, a trend-focused brand, is changing the face of affordable jewellery. The brand was founded on the conviction that affordable accessories don’t have to compromise on style and shouldn’t make you look sloppy. It designs unique pieces made from sterling silver. Serge DeNimes’ newest offering, The Tudor Collection is an extension of its heritage. It celebrates Renaissance craftsmanship where construction was revered rather than accelerated. These heirlooms are a tribute to hallmarking law. They feature sharp, anachronistic patterns that subtly, and not-so-subtly, reference the Tudor period. Serge DeNimes, the brand that unites minimalists and maximalists, is not to be missed when gift-giving season arrives. Selfridges.com

SHAUN LEANE

Shaun Leane’s skills in accessories are among the most impressive in the world, having been awarded the Outstanding Contribution Award at the UK Jewellery Awards. His eponymous brand of jewellery is the best example of this. It has four top-selling collections, including Rose Thorn, Serpent’s Trace and Cherry Blossom. You can make a choice based on the giftee’s personality, but we recommend something silver from either the Serpent range or Rose Thorn collection. We suggest the trace wide bracelet and trace drop earrings. This is the definition of elegance. Shaunleane.com

VERSACE

Versace jewellery is an excellent choice if the giftee isn’t afraid to make fashionable statements. The house’s famous motifs, which range from striking Medusa emblems and Greca pendants, are a great way to elevate her ensemble. We recommend the Crystal La Medusa bracelet, earrings, and necklace for those who are looking to get started. This is the hallmark of Italian excess. Versace.com
