Kathrine's Jewelry Picks for the Holidays from Jewelmint and Twisted Silver

Here we are, one week before Thanksgiving and the hunt for the best holiday gifts is almost here.  I am the typical girly girl and love getting jewelry for Christmas.  I am always checking out what’s new on the horizon when it comes to fun jewelry and I think I have found some pieces that should be considered for gifts. Two of my favorite jewelry sites are Jewelmint and Twisted SilverJewelmint carries pieces that are inspired by the runway, vintage jewelry, and celebrity style.  You always can see on their site what the new trends are. Twisted Silver, on the other hand, has a more earthy approach to their pieces. Twisted Silver uses many recycled materials and their items are also one of a kind. They never repeat a style twice so you won’t see someone else on the street with the same necklace, bracelet, ring, etc.  You should definitely browse these sites for unique items that can satisfy all the women on your holiday list.

Jewelmint – This site is a subscription service where you receive monthly jewelry picks based on the style profile you fill out.  For $29.99 a month, you can pick a piece of jewelry that you desire. Most of the pieces on the site are this price but there are some that are more.  I have found numerous items in the $29.99 range that I love and wear all the time.  If you decide you don’t like anything, you can skip the month free of charge.  Just make sure you do it in the first five days of month.  If you forget this, you will just have a credit waiting for you. (So you buy two pieces the next month!) I never have a problem finding anything but I am a little obsessed with jewelry.  They also have mystery boxes on their site which is when you pay a ridiculously low price to get a couple of mystery pieces.  It’s fun to see what turns up in the box.  The last time I did this I received a fun cuff and statement necklace for $30. Score! One other bonus to point out is that each piece comes in a beautiful box.  Here are my latest finds from Jewelmint that I am giving as gifts this season.

I am in love with the Sweet Aura Earrings especially.  They could spice up any outfit for the holidays.

The Supernatural necklace is a no-brainer because it incorporates the trend of layering necklaces.  The guesswork of putting necklaces together is done for you.

Twisted Silver – Their use of unique materials is a hallmark of their jewelry line.  I recently received the Park Place Necklace and Muscle Bracelet. The Park Place necklace is another piece that has layers.  It is made of antique brass and vintage glass pearls. Since the necklace is so sweet and elegant, I plan on pairing it with a leather jacket, skinny jeans, and heels.  I like the mix of hard and soft together.

The Muscle Bracelet has more of a rocker feel and has three layers of chains done in antique brass and matte silver. Attached is the video on the Muscle bracelet I did recently for their YouTube channel. You must subscribe to this channel to see and hear about many of their gorgeous pieces.

Check out both of these sites.  What are you planning on buying for others this season? (or for yourself for that matter!)
