Diamonds

August 9, 2017

I was asked to participate in the #JaredTimelessMoments campaign, sponsored by Jared The Galleria Of Jewelry. Although I have been compensated, all opinions are my own.

I like to think of myself as unique, but there’s one thing that I most certainly have in common with other women:I love diamonds. I remember when I turned 16 and my parents gave me my first diamond. It was this little tiny speck of a diamond on a heart shaped pendant. It was cute and full of sentimental value for me. From then on, I was hooked on pretty, meaningful jewelry.

I’ve actually had graduation on my mind lately as I’m attending a graduation next weekend and then my sweet cousin graduates from high school this year too (congrats, Britney!). I feel like graduation is the perfect time to gift a piece of jewelry that will last a lifetime and always remind us of such a special point our lives. After all, they do say diamonds are forever. A special piece of jewelry is the perfect reminder of how much a graduate is loved while they’re off at college, or wherever their future takes them. High school graduation is the first step of independence for many people, so it’s definitely a moment worth celebrating and remembering forever.

Now I’m teaming up with Jared The Galleria Of Jewelry to showcase some stunning options to celebrate all of the recent or soon-to-be grads. When I came across this gorgeous, 14K White Gold 7 Carat t.w. diamond necklace, I couldn’t help but think it could be an amazing way to commemorate an even bigger graduation celebration, like an adult getting their PhD or completion of a Master’s program. The way the necklace sparkles is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. It’s stunning!!

When looking for pieces to feature, I knew diamond earrings would be at the top of my list, and these 3/4 ct tw Princess-cut 14K White Gold earrings would make an incredible gift. I love the gold setting with the delicate halo of smaller jewels that surrounds the large, centerpiece stone. These earrings would be perfect as a high school or college graduation gift. They are something that can be a staple in someone’s wardrobe for years to come; they’re truly timeless. My staple jewelry is a pair of simple diamond studs that I very rarely take off. If you go back through my posts, you’ll see that I’m always wearing them. They go with anything, whether it be an evening gown or a day at the beach. Maybe that’s why diamonds really are a girl’s best friend.

What’s your diamond story? Have you ever received a diamond as a graduation gift?
