Diamonds to Dazzle Your Holiday Shoppers

No matter what trends have dominated the year—and which ones have staying power for the year ahead—there’s one category of jewelry that never seems to fail: diamonds.

Perhaps diamonds are so universally enduring because they go so well with everything (and who ever tires of that sparkle?). There’s no need to decide which color gemstone a loved one might like best (a good problem to have, but a difficult choice at times!). Instead, the decision comes down to which variety of diamond jewelry to go home with. There’s the classic pendant, stud earring, and hoop. More brands have taken liberties with these styles to provide an updated twist on an everlasting staple, providing a plethora of options to choose from.

Simple chain necklaces that dangle diamonds like charms—sometimes referred to as “fringe”—have grown quite popular in the last several years. So have interesting pendants—you’ll find a reversible option here, speaking to the demand for more versatile, convertible jewelry.

And one can never go wrong with a great pair of diamond huggie earrings or a multi-row diamond band. Whether for wedding jewelry or an everyday staple, it’s the kind of piece that can be treasured forever, heedless of trends.
