If you’ve been following along this year, you know I have been working towards being more minimal and focusing on quality over quantity. The first step was to clean out, refresh and organize my whole closet. The second step was moving on to the jewelry to get rid of any pieces that I don’t wear often, that easily break or leave that annoying colored stain on my skin (aka, cheap jewelry). Spending less money on pieces that will most likely break or change colors seems wasteful and irresponsible. Instead, I’m now investing and collecting well-crafted pieces that will last me years and won’t be out of fashion. Minimal, but edgy gold and silver pieces are what I’m loving right now.  The trick is to find something that’s minimal enough but also has its own unique details to give that edgy look.

In true Frank Vinyl fashion, all these pieces can be dressed up, dressed down and layered all together. From delicate necklaces to chunky chains, here are some of my current favorite everyday jewelry I can not stop wearing:

Child of Wild Aurelian Coin Necklace

The Aurelian Coin Necklace from Child of Wild is of my favorite necklaces right now. It’s a replica of ancient roman coins. Aurelian was an Ancient Roman “soldier-emperor” who helped the Roman Empire regain its power during the latter part of the third century. It can be worn with both silver and gold and adds just the perfect touch to any outfit. I love to layer this with both chunky and more delicate pieces or other coin necklaces.

Jane Basch Silver Hoops + Madewell Gold hoops

Hoops hoops and more hoops, please! My ears are very sensitive so when it comes to earrings, I want to make sure they don’t hurt. I always need good material and no cheapo’s allowed. The JaneBash sterling silver hoops are my faves and I wear them almost every single day! They don’t weigh my ears down and always add the perfect touch. I’m also a fan of these more affordable Madewell earrings. So far, they have not bothered my ears so these made the list.

Tilly Sveaas chain bracelet

I wear this Tilly Sveaas sterling silver chain bracelet almost every single day. My ride or die. I’ve already been eyeing the rest of her jewelry and can not wait to add to my collection! Love a good chunky chain with every single outfit. Tilly Sveaas jewelry is really always luxurious but has so much edge and attitude. Love love love.

Melissa Araujo Cuff Bracelet

I love this Melissa Araujo cuff so much! It adds the perfect minimal edge to any jewelry situation. It stays on pretty secure also. This one is not sterling silver so I normally take it off when applying lotion, perfume or anything like that to make sure it stays pretty longer. Love how lightweight and stylish it is!  SHOP HERE

LunA & Rose Saint Necklace

I really adore this St. Jude by Luna & Rose necklace. St Jude is a talisman that inspires hope & a reminder that nothing is impossible. I love wearing this. It’s a beautiful layering piece or great on its own. This brand makes their jewelry out of recycled silver. This piece is silver with 18k gold plating. Also cool about this brand, they donate 1% back to the planet. SHOP HERE
