If you are planning on attending a big New Year’s Eve party this year, you’ve probably started thinking about what you are going to wear that night…maybe a cocktail dress or frilly top?

Whatever you decide, ringing in the New Year requires some dramatic, fun, or sparkly jewelry! I’ve put together some suggestions that are sure to pair nicely with whatever you decide is appropriate attire for the evening.

Black Onyx and Crystal Quartz Earrings and Necklace

Gray Freshwater Pearl and Swarovski Crystal Earrings

Long White Freshwater Pearl Necklace and 8mm White Pearl Stud Earrings

Sterling Silver Paddle Necklace

Tourmalinated Quartz Chandelier Earrings or Crystal Quartz Teardrop Earrings

I love to wear and design dangly, colorful earrings full of attitude and spunk. But not everyone shares the same taste in jewelry as me. Many people claim that their hair is too short or they can’t wear dangly earrings at the office or at school (mainly teachers). Alright, alright….I have come up with a solution to this dangly earring conundrum.

I have come up with a new series of freshwater pearl stud earrings that even I am excited about! Nowadays, pearl studs aren’t just for classy formal attire. These pearl studs can brighten up your beautiful face any day. So let’s take a tour of the different sizes and colors of pearl studs now available at www.naturalbeautyjewelry.com.

8mm White Pearl Studs - (8mm=5/16ths of an inch)

6mm White Pearl Studs - (6mm=just under 1/4″)

The 8mm pearl studs are pictured on the left and the 6mm pearl studs are on the right, just to give you a comparison on size. Aren’t they cute in their little boxes?

6mm Mauve (rose) Pearl Studs - (6mm=just under 1/4″)

6mm Peach Pearl Studs - (6mm=just under 1/4″)

6mm Peacock Pearl Studs - (6mm=just under 1/4″)

These deep purple pearls contain hues of purple and blue…kinda like a peacock!

I recently designed this necklace and earrings using beautiful aquamarine stones and white freshwater pearls. I first presented the piece to a certain someone and they exclaimed, “It looks like an ocean wave!”… and what a perfect description.

When I tried on the necklace for the first time, it took on a life of its own and the two longer strands overlapped each other. This unique design was unintentional but a quality that myself and many people enjoy about it. It is a fairly new piece, but will be up on the website soon, so check back soon!

Here is a new twist on an exciting design! I re-designed this necklace and earrings using Citrine, Peridot, Blue Howlite and a brite blue Turquoise. I also made the earrings so that they hang the opposite way from a small sterling silver hoop instead of facing forward with the filigree component used in the previous design.

Feel fresh and clean wearing this necklace and earrings designed especially for springtime!

I am working on a collection of chandelier earrings that are similar in design. The pair pictured above are made with light blue freshwater pearls and faceted teardrops of amazonite.

This design is made with chips of multi-colored Tourmaline and white freshwater pearls. Each section is hand wire wrapped to sterling silver chain links. This piece can also be worn two ways, either wrapped around twice or as one long necklace (as pictured). The matching post earrings each have a cluster of Tourmaline chips hanging at the bottom.

This necklace is made with sterling silver chain and pink freshwater pearls. I am really excited about this design, because it can be worn two different ways. The first (which I like best) is looped around the neck twice as pictured. Or, if you want you can wear it as one long loop which is approximately 34″ long. I like the versatility of being able to change it up, so I think I am going to design a couple of different designs with the same functionality.

I designed this three strand necklace and matching earrings totally on a whim….and it turned out to be one of my favorites! I started with the strand of Red Howlite, then added the second strand made with Turquoise and Garnets. The third strand is made out of oval pieces of Citrine separated with sterling silver spacers. The matching earrings have a little bit of everything linked together so that they really dangle. As suggested by a Natural Beauty Jewelry enthusiast (my brother Matt), this design fully deserves the name “Fiesta!”.
