Let’s face it: the landscape for interesting and fun designs is becoming kinda bleak out there. With all of this mass production, we’re missing the creative touches in our everyday items and in our wardrobes that used to brighten our habitats just a smidge. Now everyone has the same five chrome appliances and artisan work feels like it’s becoming a thing of the past. Well, not if we have anything to say about it. Make way for the creative and innovative designs at Jude Frances. We’ve been craving a luxury option for personalization, and Jude Frances fills that void perfectly.
We’re pretty charmed by our newest addition to the Deutsch Fine Jewelry family – and it’s easy to see why. Jude Frances is the perfect designer for the girl with a penchant for an evergrowing jewelry collection. Combine one of their iconic 18k gold and diamond hoops with any number of interchangeable charms and frames and see a plethora of options unfold. Each hoop can be attached with a charm, which hangs down below the lobe. If the look requires a more dramatic touch, the hoop can also be set with a collection of delicate frames that effortlessly surround any of the gold and gemstone charm designs. With one combination set of hoops, charms, and frames, a collector could find four distinct looks: the classic small hoops, hoops with charms, hoops with open frames, or the showstopper of hoops with framed charms.
Hoop Dreams
First, we start our personalized earring journey off with a pair of classic huggie hoops. The original Jude Frances Diamond Huggie Hoop Earrings are an elegant, timeless look on their own. These 18k yellow gold earrings sport a dazzling pavé of seven brilliant round white diamonds and a milgrain edge that brings a touch of texture to these boardroom beauties. We chose the original huggie hoops, but Jude Frances has a variety of hoops to peruse and mix and match with their collection of charms and frames. From white gold look to the coveted mixed metal fasteners, an earring enthusiast will be able to find the right hoop for her look.
Charmed, I’m Sure
Now that the hoops are chosen, it’s time to be charmed. The Morrocan Turquoise Ogee Earring Charms by Jude Frances are shown suspended by the aforementioned Diamond Huggie Hoops, and the look is already coming together. The shape is reminiscent of the opulent filigree found in fashion and architecture of North Africa. The pointed shape at either end is punctuated with a cluster of three brilliant round white diamonds and the turquoise centerpeices of each earring is set with a silver boarder with yellow gold accents, which is a subtle nod at the growing love of mixed metal jewelry that is popping off in the fashion world right now. These turquoise beauties can be a full look by themselves on the huggie hoop, but there’s an extra step that the discerning collector might want to try.
We’ve Been Framed
Get a little fancy with it. These Casablanca Moroccan Earring Frames from Jude Frances are a dainty, simple jewelry look on their own, but when paired with our Diamond Huggie Hoop Earrings and the Moroccan Turquoise Ogee Earring Charms, this simple look turns into a bold, eye-catching combination. Made of 18k yellow gold, each curve and edge of the frames are accented with a line of brilliant round white diamonds with delicate metalwork to add fine detail to the airy earrings.
Mix n Match
Have a bit of fun. Choose between the myriad charms, hoops, and frames available at Jude Frances and make a whole new look, completely personalized. For a high-powered business meeting, nothing is better than a pair of power huggie hoops for the mixture of elegance and professionalism. Brighten it up by adding a pair of open frames for an outdoor brunch or park date. For a chill evening out, add a cute gemstone charm for some shine and personality. When the calendar falls on a big event with a need for some va-va-voom, bust out all three components and make an eye-catching earring entrance.
