Let’s face it, most women want jewelry for Valentine’s Day. I’m excluding myself in this category as I’m probably the only woman in history who has told her husband repeatedly that she has enough jewelry. I know, I’m weird. Luckily I recognize that, so we’ve put together a blog of our favorite new jewelry brands that you can forward along to your significant other or buy yourself this Valentine’s Day. All of these brands are focused on giving the consumer the most value and style for their money, which is exactly what we try to do here on the RLS blog!
Happy Shopping!
AURate
AURate jewelry is designed and handmade in New York, using ethically sourced diamonds and gold. Their designs are classic with a chic sculptural edge, which we love. They have two stores in Manhattan, one in Brooklyn, and one here in DC, in Georgetown.
Mejuri
Mejuri believes in fine jewelry for the everyday. By utilizing white sapphires and high-quality gold vermeil, they offer a ton of pieces at a great price point. They produce their pieces in small quantities, so if you find something you love you’ll have to grab it fast. Mejuri has stores in New York, LA, San Francisco, and Toronto.
