Ted Baker London Harly Heart Stud Earrings
Make sure you know your giftee is into heart-shaped jewelry (and, well, has their ears pierced) before you buy them these earrings, but other than that, these are a true crowd pleaser. Since these are tiny studs and come in a selection of rose gold, gold, or silver-toned metals, they’ll fit nicely with any outfit under the sun and for any occasion too. They’re also engraved with the brand name and come in a lovely pastel jewelry box for a little taste of something designer but at a fraction of the price.

For your more glamorous friend who always seems to get invited to galas, premieres, and private social clubs, nothing less than this pair of glitzy drop earrings will do. Despite being very shiny, thanks to their selection of pavé crystals set in gold or silver metal, these teardrop jewels aren’t actually over the top at all. They simply say “sophisticated party.” Plus, you get that high-end effect for a really reasonable price, so we’d call that an all-around win.

These earrings by Missoma hit the nail on the head with their two intertwined chunky chain links, one in 18K gold vermeil and one in silver-toned rhodium-plate. These make a perfect present for your loved ones who are always ahead of trends and love to look really cool for brunch as much as they do for work. As for us, we’d wear them with a pair of mom jeans and a black bodysuit.

Pascale Monvoisin Ava 9-Karat Gold and Silver, Diamond and Sapphire Ring
While we could totally see this ring serving as a less conventional engagement ring, it’s also a thoughtful way to mark someone’s birthday or other milestone. It’s named “Ava” after Ava Gardner, embodying the Old Hollywood aesthetic with its round and lozenge-shaped stones. It alternates white diamonds and pink sapphires and is set in sterling silver.
