It’s no secret that I love a good accessory. I believe the right jewelry can transform an outfit from ho-hum to WOW, and I love that you don’t have to spend an arm and a leg for a lot of impact. So when Nordstrom asked me to talk about accessories that would be great to give and receive for Mother’s Day, I jumped at the chance! Accessories are powerful and easy to incorporate into your wardrobe, and I happen to have some favorites. 😉
So instead of highlighting something new today, I thought it would be fun to just take a walk down memory lane. I’m recommending these items today because they are items that I personally own and love. Many of these pieces are ones that you see over and over and over again on the blog! The jewelry today starts at $18 and goes up to about $120, so there’s a price point for every budget and an item for every mom!
First up, the Rayne necklace. Over the years I’ve collected these necklaces in magenta, white, and black. It comes in tons of colors and you truly can’t go wrong.
my little white dress/ MUST HAVE jacket / magenta rayne necklace / cork wedges ON SALE (order 1/2 a size up)/ clutch/ watch ON SALE / gold bracelet / gold hoop earrings /ray-ban sunglasses / best strapless bra ever
THIS abalone bracelet is big and makes quite the statement. I think it’s the most expensive option on the post today, but it sure is pretty! The little gold bracelet would be a great basic piece for anybody to have. You can wear it on it’s own, but it’s also great to stack.

If you are looking for a personalized gift, THIS initial necklace could be the way to go. (Another designer that has great options for personalized items is Pandora.)

I’ve had THESE blingy hoop earrings for years and still love them. And check out this $18 tassel necklace!!!!! The necklace comes in turquoise, white, and black and is obviously an awesome price point!

Here’s a close up of the simple gold bracelet I mentioned earlier. I honestly don’t know a mama that wouldn’t want this bracelet. It’s a middle of the road price point at $48, and there are colored ones available HERE. My wrap around watch is sold out, but you can find a similar one HERE with a single strap and a double wrap HERE in white (they were on sale on Sunday night, and I hope they still are today!).

Here’s another shot of both the earrings and the super affordable tassel necklace!

Another great staple for any woman to have is a pair of THESE Elle earrings from Kendra Scott. They are the perfect size and add a great pop of color! If you or your mama has dark hair, I highly recommend the white!

Here you can see the same earrings above, but in abalone. They are fab ifidosaysomyself. The abalone itself is beautiful (the picture below gives you a really great idea for how pretty the abalone stone is!), and it really does go with everything. If you or you mama is more of a studs person, click HERE for an abalone stud.

Okay, so clearly I’m a fan of the Elle earrings…because here is another pair. Click HERE all of the options in one of Kendra’s newer colors, the gorgeous amazonite (kinda green and kinda turquoise). If you want the Rayne necklace in amazonite, you can find it HERE.

Yet another shot of my SHOULD HAVE BEEN A MUST HAVE circle hoop earrings.

One more picture of the bar pendant necklace. It’s an amazing value and would really make a great gift.

When it comes to earrings, I tend to have sensitive ears and I have found that my Kate Spade studs will irritate me if I wear them all day, but my Kendra Scott and House of Harlow earrings do not. I’m not sure what the metals used are, but I’m guessing Kate Spade doesn’t use real gold? I absolutely love the look of her earrings (I have teal glitter studs and Aurora Borealis studs) but I have been disappointed by quality. Have you noticed this issue?
Sheaffer says
Hi Stacey! I too have sensitive ears, and the Kate Spade studs don’t bother me! Sorry I’m not more help! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Teo says
You look amazing, lovely stuff 🙂
