What You Need to Know When Buying a Diamond Ring

May 3, 2012 by  
Filed under Guest Posts

A diamond ring is arguably one of the most expensive purchases an individual will make in their lifetime.

The general rule of thumb when buying a diamond ring is that it should not cost more than two months of your annual salary, although many people far exceed this when faced with a truly spectacular diamond.

When buying a diamond it is important to consider the “Four C’s”.

Carat

The carat of a diamond is essentially how much the gemstone weighs, with one carat being the same as 200 milligrams of weight and is often abbreviated to ‘ct’. Small diamonds are measured in points and there are 100 points in each carat. Similarly sized gems may weigh significantly different amounts due to the density or the carat of the diamond.

Most distinguished wedding rings have a carat weight of above 0.5, although for smaller hands a smaller weight of 0.3 to 0.4 carats can proportionally look perfect in the right setting.

Cut

The cut of a diamond is essential to the sparkle on any wedding ring. The cut of a diamond refers to the proportions of the gemstone in its uniformity and the depth and width of the stone. To create that magical sparkle diamonds need to be cut in a certain way. Too shallow a cut and the light is deflected towards the bottom of the stone, whilst too deep a cut leaves the light escaping out of the sides of the rock.

There are a number of different types of cuts you can have for your diamond. ‘Pear shaped’ diamonds are popular and are often used in diamond earrings. The hybrid cut combines an oval shape with a marquise edge producing an almost teardrop like shape. ‘Princess cut’ diamonds are also popular and are almost square in shape and are designed to produce maximum scintillation from a square cut. There are numerous other cuts including round, radiant-cut, marquise, oval, trillion and heart shaped diamonds available on the market.

Colour

The most popular diamonds are completely colourless (white diamonds), though some coloured diamonds can be even more sought after. There are colour treatments, which can enhance and alter the colour of any diamonds.

Yellow is one of the most common colours found in diamonds and most gemstones will exude a hue of yellow. Yellow diamonds are therefore the most affordable and compliment white diamonds and white gold settings brilliantly. Red and blue diamonds are the most valuable coloured diamonds in the world and are mined in the southern hemisphere.

Clarity

The clarity simply refers to the flaws of a given diamond. Almost all diamonds have some manner of flaw, such as blemishes on the surface of the stone or microscopic chips and cracks.

The International Diamond Council rates diamonds from loupe clean, which means they’re basically flawless, to I3, which means the flaws can be seen with the naked eye. ‘Eye clean’ diamonds are visually flawless to the naked eye, although under a magnification flaws can be seen.

Anyone purchasing a genuine diamond should receive certification, which highlights the characteristics of the diamond including its ‘Four C’s’, but when it come to the band itself, it is essential to find one that matches the worth of the diamond.

Bands are made from a range of precious and semi-precious metals, including white gold, yellow gold or rose gold as well as platinum and palladium, whilst the setting within a diamond ring is also quite important.

A solitaire diamond will stand out if put in a prong setting for example, but if more than one diamond has been bought, the buyer might want a common prong, which can hold a few diamonds at a time. There’s also cluster settings, pave settings and bezel settings.

Anyone considering buying any type of diamond jewellery should find a reputable and legitimate company that sells diamonds and can track their origins. The company should be registered and also certified by the European Gemmological Laboratory or the International Diamond Council.

There are certainly many things to consider when buying any type of diamond jewellery, and using the four C’s along with some good advice from a reputable jeweller could help you find the diamond ring of your dreams.

I have already listed my 5 Mothers Day gift essentials as well as ideas for spending this day in style and luxury. So, now I guess whats left is to create a list of Mothers Day gift ideas and this topic will be fully covered.

When I try to figure out what gift to get for my mother I always start with something that I would be happy to receive myself. Then I adjust it to the brands she likes and what she needs the most at the moment. My preferred list of options include designer handbags or clutches, exquisite wallets, scarves, jewelry or something similar. But these kind of presents I usually buy for her Birthday and on Mothers Day stick to the essentials such as flowers, cards and perfume. My mothers’ Birthday has passed already, but I still wanted to pick some fancy gifts. Maybe it will be helpful for someone who has no idea what gift to buy or maybe I will get something sophisticated for the most important woman in my life after all. Anyway here is my list of Mothers Day gift ideas:

6 Famous Movie Jewels

April 2, 2012 by  
Filed under Guest Posts

Movies are made of the stuff of dreams—including jewelry like rings, necklaces and famous stones. Although movie jewels are props and have no value in themselves, the props become valuable as the movie becomes popular. In some cases, precious metal and stone versions of movie jewels are even made for the general public. Curious about some of these famous jewels? Read on!

1 – The ring from Lord of the Rings

Iconic jewels if there are any in this world, the rings from the classic J.R.R. Tolkien story have popped up everywhere in jewelry stores after the movies came out. Jewelers paid special attention to the engravings inside the ring, as they are otherwise simple polished gold rings. Can you, like Frodo, carry the weight of the One Ring and take it to its final resting place in Mount Doom?

2 – Kryptonite from Superman

Kryptonite isn’t exactly a jewel, but the stone has been set in jewels throughout the history of the character. Kryptonite can do different things to Superman: weaken him or rob him of his powers, change his personality or even hurt him. The amount of kryptonite on Earth changes regularly throughout the history of the comic and movies, providing Superman with more or less challenge to his power.

3 – The Sankara Stones from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

Religious stones hold special power in this movie, and our intrepid Indy is out to search for missing stones that have been stolen from their village by an evil Kali cult. The stones contain diamonds and are thought to contain great power when put all together. Indy recovers the stones and brings them back safely to their villages.

4 – The Heart of the Ocean in Titanic

This necklace is probably the most famous piece of jewelry in movie history. Based on the Hope diamond, the Heart of the Ocean plays an important part in the plot of Titanic. Celine Dion wore the best replica at the 1998 Oscars ceremony. René Angelil, her husband, later bought it for 2.2 million dollars at an auction for Princess Diana.

5 – The Pink Panther diamond in The Pink Panther

Very few people know that the Pink Panther is not actually the detective, Jacques Clouseau, but rather the name of the diamond stolen in his first case, called Pink Panther because of its color and an imperfection in the stone that looks like a panther. However, the popularity of the character took over and is now associated with the name, while the diamond itself appears only in half the Pink Panther movies.

6 – The Maltese Falcon in The Maltese Falcon

Another eponymous piece of jewelry, The Maltese Falcon is a movie with Humphrey Bogart as a detective on the trail of thieves who are after an ancient piece of jewelry called, you guessed it, the Maltese Falcon. Legend holds that the Maltese Falcon was sent by the Knights of Malta as their annual tribute to Spain but was lost in a shipwreck.

Wouldn’t you love to receive a replica of one of these famous jewels, along with flowers, for your next birthday? What a great way to feel like a movie star, rich girls!

Choosing The Right Jewelry For Every Outfit

April 2, 2012 by  
Filed under Guest Posts

Picking the right outfit takes time. And it matters. Oh, how it matters. With the right combination of clothes, you can become the prettiest fairy princess as easily as you can become a dancefloor owning dominatrix. Settling on the right clothes isn’t the whole picture though: it’s perfectly possible for you to absolutely butcher even the most perfect outfit by accessorizing it in the wrong way. So how can you be sure of picking the perfect piece? Read on!

We’ll start with the dull stuff: work. Whilst it’s fair game to think of your job as glorified fuel for your shopping addiction (I do), looking good is an important part of turning up for the 9-5 slog. Needless to say, office jewellery shouldn’t be overdone: this will just give you the look of someone who’s trying to pull the boss. (Obviously you’re welcome to try this, but being seen to do so is never a bad thing…). Smaller, more subtle pieces are the way forward: small earrings, necklaces or even a bracelet can look great. Needless to say, the 24 carat ear-rings that are the size of your stiletto should probably be left at home ;)

STEPHEN WEBSTER - JULES VERNE BRACELET

Right, the boring bit covered, we can move onto the bits you really care about: those gorgeous, figure-hugging dresses that have all your best friends secretly hating you. And attracting admiring glances from every man in the room. Every girl’s dream, obviously.

Picking the right jewellery for the right dress is an artform in it’s own right. Just as a man’s personality can be securely judged by his belt, shoes and watch, so we can judge our fellow girls by their necklace, earrings and pendants.

Necklaces are, as you’re probably very aware, reliant on the neck lining of the dress. If you prefer heart-shaped or strapless bodices, then you’ll want something that reaches your collarbone, as this will help to emphasise your bare neck and shoulders. For v-necks, a pendant or drop necklace with a centerpiece is the best way to highlight the “girls” (I heard that term from Scarlett Johansson, and can’t stop using it!). If you’ve got an open collar, then a thicker, chunkier piece is normally the best approach. Your standard square neck is best accentuated by a long chain.

STEPHEN WEBSTER - FLY BY NIGHT VORTEX NECKLACE

It’s not only necklaces that can prove to be a bit of a disaster: it’s perfectly possible to ruin a beautiful dress with the wrong set of earrings. Not that I’m trying to scare you, obviously, but this stuff matters! Fortunately, getting it right is just a case of picking the right variety to suit your face:

Round/Fuller Faces: Go for length. Narrow and elongated earrings can effectively balance the shape of a rounder face.

Thin/Longer Faces: As you might have guessed, the reverse applies, with close-to-the-ear, rounder earrings the most appropriate choice.

BLISS ROSE - MARGUERITE EARRINGS

Squarer Faces: As a rather square faced girl myself, I once made the mistake of wearing square earrings. The result? I looked like a rubix cube. Hooped earrings all the way for this one!

Heart-shaped Faces: As with squarer faces, round earrings are the right way forward, as they’ll soften the angles – if you’re really looking for something longer, then teardrop or pyramid shapes will look great.

Oval Faces: If you’ve got a more oval face, then count yourself lucky: you’ll fit virtually anything! Not that I’m jealous… much.

How to Keep Your Priceless Jewellery Looking Brand New

February 9, 2012 by  
Filed under Guest Posts

Although most of us never want to sell our Jewellery and would have to come on tough times to do so, looking after it is essential to secure that it remains as brand new irrelevant of resale (if ever). Here are some top tips for looking after your Jewellery.

Storage

It is important to store jewellery properly, whether it is expensive or not, so that it does not get damaged.

Keep chains flat, either lie them down or hang them up. Always leave them done up. This should prevent tangling and scratching.

Keep all jewellery in a dry room, neither excessively hot or cold, to avoid moisture, rust, warping and discolouration.

Keep jewellery out of direct sunlight. Especially opals, pearls and coloured stones, as they may discolour or even crack in extreme temperatures.

Keep jewellery separated. If it is mixed up together it is likely to become damaged. Diamond is an exceptionally hard material and could easily scratch or chip anything else you have in your jewellery box.

jewelry storage box

Store in either soft cloth pouches, acid free tissue paper or untreated cotton or silk. The jewellery boxes that you purchased the items in are ideal but can be bulky en masse. Get creative! For example get a ribbon to hang somewhere that you can put earrings through, displaying and protecting them at the same time.

Care

Different kinds of jewellery needs different types of care.

Jewellery should be the last thing that you put on, the the first thing you take off to avoid contact with harsh surfaces.

Check your jewellery regularly. Check that the clasps are strong, that links are not worn and that jump rings are not pulled open. If you feel that a piece of jewellery is becoming worn it is advisable to take it to a jeweller to be given professional advice, especially if you wear it frequently.

As jewellery is easily scratched, it is inadvisable to wear it whilst at the gym, playing sport or doing housework. Opals can crack if put into water.

Put on all cosmetics, including perfume and hairspray before you put your jewellery on. Cosmetics can damage stones and cause discolouration.

Wear your jewellery regularly. The continual movement against your body should help to rub off tarnishing.

Cleaning

Clean with mild soap like washing up liquid and warm water. If a piece is particularly tarnished it may help to soak it for a while first. A soft toothbrush or make-up brush is ideal for cleaning. Be aware, particularly with older pieces and ones with delicate settings (like a four claw setting for example) that the dirt may be helping to hold stones in place, so consult a jeweller if you are in any doubt at all.

Threaded jewellery should not be put into water, if it needs cleaning use a slightly moist cloth and make sure that it lies flat and straight to dry as the thread may stretch.

Silver jewellery cloths are great for cleaning most jewellery and are easily available. They will remove tarnishing and return the jewellery to its original lustre.

Tarnishing is caused by humidity, chemicals, oils and oxygen. Sterling silver is alloyed with copper in order to make it stronger; copper tarnishes very easily so it is likely to need regular cleaning.

If something is exceptionally tarnished it may need to go into silver dip. Be warned that this removes a layer of metal from the item, so it is best to do this as few times as possible. After dipping it make sure that all of the dip is washed off, dry it and then rub it with a soft cloth to bring back its shine.
You cannot put all stones into silver dip; the ones to avoid are opals, pearls, amber.

Surprisingly, a lot of people do not know these basic tips, even in a time when a quick web search can bring up the best method to clean any type of metal or stone jewellery.

And finally, handle it with care. It’s expensive and in some cases sentimental!

Occasions for Wearing Pearl Jewellery

January 10, 2012 by  
Filed under Guest Posts

Prior to the most romantic holiday of all times – the Valentine’s day, we continue featuring jewelry related articles. Here is a guest post about the several occasions when wearing pearls would be the best choice. Enjoy! ~ Rich Girl

It is fair to say that pearls are one of the most luxurious and sought after forms of jewellery but they are not suitable for every occasion. There are certain social situations, however, that are tailored made for pearl necklaces or earrings and if you’re looking to add a touch of luxury to an outfit, pearl jewellery is the best way of achieving it.

Below are some of the main scenarios where pearl jewellery is likely to be the perfect accessory for your outfit:

Weddings – There is no occasion where pearl jewellery is more fitting than that of a wedding, particularly a winter wedding. Pearl earrings or a striking necklace are the perfect accompaniment to any wedding dress and will elevate your wedding outfit to a whole new level. There are many different types of pearls available, of course, but when it comes to complimenting a wedding dress, styles such as Akoya and Tahitian pearls are one of the best choices. Take a look at a stunning Tahitian pearl necklace below:

Cocktail Parties – There are invariably occasions where you want to make your mark and look a million dollars and pearl jewellery is the perfect way of doing this. When attending an upscale cocktail party, you will need to match your choice of jewellery with your outfit and this is why pearls are such an ideal solution as pearl earrings and necklaces can be used to compliment almost any elegant outfit. Once you’ve found a cocktail dress that is to your liking, your attention must turn to the jewellery that you are going to wear to accompany it – how about some of the examples below, which include one of the most stunning pearl necklace:

pearl necklace

Job Interview – Needless to say, you need to make a positive first impression when attending a job interview and nothing exudes more elegance and sophistication than the pearl jewellery and, for this reason, it is the perfect accessory to wear to that important job interview. As the old saying goes, “you don’t get a second chance to make a first impression” and you won’t need any second chances if you turn up to your interview wearing a stylish pearl bracelet or an understated and sophisticated pearl necklace. The pearls below are ideal for attending a job interview:

pearl pendant

If you have occasion coming up where you truly want to stand out from the crowd for your grace and sophistication, you are certainly unlikely to go too far wrong by choosing pearl necklaces, earrings or bracelets to accessorize your chosen outfit. Whether you opt for South Sea pearls, Tahitian, Akoya or Freshwater pearls, you know that you are wearing a piece of jewelry that is timeless as it is elegant and which is perfect for all upmarket occasions in your life.

Matching your Pearl Jewelry

It goes without saying that most women will want to wear a number of different types of jewellery with their outfit and when it comes to pearls, there is jewelry that doesn’t compliment pearls. For example, if you wear pearl necklace, you may wish to accessorize it with a pair of diamond earrings and this is a look which will add significant level of sophistication to your outfit, but avoid mixing it with cheap plastic accessories. Providing that the jewellery that you’re wearing (whether it be pearls, gold, silver or diamonds) are all of a similar quality and style, there is no reason that different jewels can’t be worn together successfully. But make sure you don’t over do it. If in doubt, only wear one piece of jewelry at any one time. Keep it simple, and follow the rule of elegance – less is more.


If you’re thinking that you really want to stand out from the crowd with your choice of pearl jewelry, it may be worth thinking about pink, gold or even black pearls – these unusual and unique forms of jewellery are the perfect choice for any occasion and will bring your outfit to life with their elegant shimmer and understated grace. Take a look at a breathtaking black pearl necklace below:

7 Most Expensive Diamonds in the World

January 10, 2012 by  
Filed under Guest Posts

Valentine’s day is fast approaching and what a girl wants to receive as a present on this special day?! Of course fancy jewelry! And since diamonds are girls best friends, here is a guest post about some of the most expensive diamonds in the world. Enjoy! ~ Rich Girl

We know that some of you probably can’t afford even a fraction of the diamonds we’re going to show you today, even on a diamond ring. But those diamonds are so large, so beautiful and so expensive that they have inflamed the imagination of even the richest and most powerful people on this planet (living AND dead). Curious to see some of the most expensive precious stones in the world? Read on!

1 – The Moussaieff Red Diamond

This diamond, albeit rather small (5.11 carats) is estimated at 7 million dollars (not that much, you’ll see!), because of its unique color (Fancy Red) and intricate cut (trilliant cut). The Moussaieff is the largest Fancy Red diamond in the world and is owned by Moussaieff Jewellers Ltd., which is renowned for multi-million dollar pieces of jewelry.

2 – The Hope Diamond

The Hope Diamond, worth 350 million dollars and weighing 45.52 carats, is the inspiration behind the “Heart of the Ocean” diamond in the blockbuster movie “Titanic”. Some people believe it’s cursed; some old rumors (actually spread in the early 20th century) have the diamond stolen from a Sita statue in India, making the owner cursed. Kings of France and England as well as sultans have owned the diamond. And now the “most famous diamond in the world” is in display at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, DC. It is definitely must-see item in this museum.

3 – The Steinmetz Pink Diamond

This beautiful pink 59.60-carat diamond is the only diamond ever to be classified as “Fancy Vivid Pink” in color. It is currently worth around 25 million dollars and is the largest known pink diamond in the world. Pink diamonds are extremely rare and usually found in much smaller sizes. It took the Steinmetz Group 20 months to cautiously cut it, because it is so extraordinary, one wrong move and the priceless diamond would have shattered.

4 – The Cullinan Diamond

Worth 400 million dollars, the Cullinan diamond or “The Star of Africa” is the biggest gem-quality diamond ever found and the 2nd largest cut diamond in the world. At 3,106.75 carats (or 621.35 grams, almost a kilogram!) in the rough, the diamond was perfect to cut and polish into an impressive 530.2-carat tear-shaped diamond. The gem is on display of Crown Jewels in the Tower of London, United Kingdom.

5 – The Heart of Eternity Diamond

The story of the Hope Diamond might have inspired the story of Titanic, but its shape is based on the Heart of Eternity diamond, valued at 16 million dollars and weighing 27.64 carats. What makes it so unique is its deep, vivid blue color, unmatched by any other major blue diamonds. The Steinmetz group cut it into a heart shape before selling it to the De Beers group.

6 – The Sancy Diamond

The Sancy diamond, still inestimable (and therefore priceless) is part of the French Crown Jewel collection hosted at the Louvre museum. The cut of this diamond is unique: it is made of a pair of crowns and has no pavilion. The pale yellow color might be considered an imperfection, but its symmetrical cut is quite intriguing.

7 – The Koh-i-Noor

We couldn’t discuss famous expensive diamonds without mentioning the Koh-i-Noor. This diamond also remains inestimable; it is still part of the British Crown Jewels (actually set in the crown of the Queen Mother Elizabeth). It used to be the biggest known diamond in the world, but several cuts and re-cuts have made it smaller – 105 carats.

Imagine receiving one of these diamonds along with your Valentine’s Day flowers! Wouldn’t that be amazing? Oh, you’d also need a really strong vault to keep it protected from the thieves.

Gemstone Bracelet = Magic, Luxury, Beauty And Heeling

December 14, 2011 by  
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog

A few days ago I have noticed that my friend was wearing a very beautiful and unique bracelet. I haven’t seen something like that before, so I asked her what was that and where did she get it. She explained me, that it was a present from her boyfriend and the bracelet is handmade out of Agate Botswana gemstones. That these stones provide energy to the aura and promote eternal love, increase creativity and help you find solutions, rather than dwelling on your problems. And this stone also has been said to increase fertility and is known for increasing sensuality and passion in the person that carries it. So, not only the bracelet was really pretty, it also bared magic within it. I was jealous.

Where are a lot of stones in this world and each of them has a different meaning and has specific healing or protective qualities. I am not that much into stones myself, but I know a lot of people who can talk for hours about it. One of my guy-friends wears huge aquamarine ring on his finger, because it is said to be sailors’ lucky stone as well as a birthstone for those born in March. For me it may look a little bit strange, as I am not a fan of any kind of rings on men other than a wedding band, but I also respect his way of expressing himself.

I don’t know if you believe in special powers of certain stones, but in the course of human history, people have always believed in the power of crystals and stones, in their healing and spiritual qualities as well as ability to attract good energy, love and ‘luck’.

To enhance the power of the stones you need to make sure, that you wear them in skin contact, so bracelets or necklaces, which are made out of stones, are the perfect choice.

Of course, if you are interested in learning more about the power of stones, you can find a lot of useful and interesting information online. The reason why I wanted to write this post was because I really loved the bracelet which my friend was wearing and I wanted to have something similar. Turned out that these bracelets are handmade by highly skilled professional craftsmen and jewelers using the highest quality gemstones and diamonds in all colors, incorporating Platinum, Gold and Silver. The only way to get them is to order online at Nibrana.com.

So, I contacted the owner of the site, expressed my admiration, asked a lot of questions and as a result they offered me 20% discount on any purchase. Which was super cool, right?! :) You need to talk and be nice to people, it always pays off, you know. They also liked the Rich Girls Club so much, that they decided to offer 20% discount for everyone with coupon code: richgirls

So, whether you believe or not in the special powers of stones, you can’t deny the fact that these bracelets look amazing and one of them can definitely be a great Christmas present for someone special! Sometimes it is so hard to find a gift with a certain meaning, so let the stones do the talking for you.

Below are just a few Nibrana bracelets, which I loved the most. You can find a lot more on their site.

Maybe you had a story to tell us about how wearing stones helped you? We would love to hear back from you! Also, don’t forget about 20% discount on Nibrana.com with coupon code: richgirls

Rich Girls Find Bulgari Watch Under Pillow

March 10, 2011 by  
Filed under Rich Travel

People say that rich girls have amazing life: they travel around the world, always get what they want, their path in life is covered with rose petals and smells like expensive perfume, and all they ever do is party and drink champagne! Well, now in addition to all that rich girls can also have their personal exclusive luxury tooth fairy.

You may ask how is that?! Well, I just received amazing offer from the Ritz-Carlton, Dallas and the newly-unveiled Bulgari boutique at North Park Center. These two luxury mega brands have partnered to offer a “surprising” new guest experience beginning March 1 through Labor Day 2011.

Ritz-Carlton Suite Dallas Texas

What they came up with is to my mind the amazing offer called “The Suite Dreams Shopping Experience at The Ritz-Carlton, Dallas” and which will be best suited for us, rich girls, who adore Bulgari jewelry. The package features a one-night stay in a Deluxe Suite complemented by included transportation to the Bulgari boutique located just a few minutes from The Ritz-Carlton. In addition to Bulgari concierge shopping assistance, guests staying on the new package will receive a Bulgari gift during their visit to the boutique — either a selection from the iconic brand’s celebrated international fragrance collection, or a stunning Bulgari coffee-table book written by Sotheby jewelry experts Daniela Mascetti and Amanda Triossi.

Ritz-Carlton Suite Dreams Bulgari Shopping Dallas Texas

So, Bulgari shopping and presents for shopping, sounds great isn’t it?! But the main catch is the complimentary Bulgari watch! Because one Suite Dreams guest per month will receive a complimentary Bulgari watch nestled under his or her pillow during the stay. The Bulgari Carbon Gold Limited Edition Watch will be presented to a single Suite Dreams guest per month, featured as part of evening turn down service in the one guest’s suite and selected via a random process.

I think this offer will be great for planning your next girls get-together, because it combines everything which girls love: shopping, presents, surprises and having a good time. I personally have never been to Dallas, so I could also add sightseeing to all the above.

So, girls, what do you think?! Does it sounds interesting and exciting to you?! Let me know what you think in the comments below.

Yours,

Rich Girl

Heart Shape Jewelry For Rich Girls

Happy St. Valentine’s Day to all the Rich and aspiring girls! This is a special day, when happy couples celebrate their love and those who haven’t found her Mr. Right yet, dream about meeting him. No matter if you are happy in love or in constant search for the best match, today we celebrate Love – the most wonderful and healing feeling in the Universe.
I love everything about St. Valentine’s Day – flowers, candies, balloons, but most of all I love Hearts! That is why I decided to search for the best heart shaped jewelry I could find and share it with you. Consider it my little present for you today! I hope these amazing pieces of art will make you smile and hope for the better and richer life.
Almost every brand which creates and sells jewelry, have at least one piece with the shape of heart. And this is not a surprise, because presenting jewelry was always considered as a sign of your true love and passion.
Below are only a few pieces of heart shaped jewelry I really loved and could find on the Internet.

I think that Chopard’s Happy Diamonds collection is the best St. Valentine’s Day present ever created.

So, girls what do you think? Do you like heart shape jewelry or you think it is too much? Would be great if you could share your favorite heart shape jewelry or maybe the one you have ever received on Valentine’s Day!

I wish you have a wonderful Valentine’s Day and that all other days were also filled with love and passion!
