While we spend a lot of time trying our very best to curate the perfect capsule wardrobe, our favorite jeans, slim fit tees, and chunky knitwear for when the weather drops would be nothing without a stacked jewelry rotation. We all succumb to new jewelry trends from time-to-time, with toe rings, anklets, statement necklaces, and statement earrings being the latest of them—we're only human, after all and, as editors, we're presented with temptation all day everyday.
From perfecting the art of the necklace stack to cherished heirloom pieces with familial significance and embracing a maximal, more is more mindset for summertime, to my personal addiction to shopping for resin bangles on Depop (it's just somehow never enough), team Coveteur has a special, intimate relationship with our jewelry pieces.
Ahead, we breakdown our jewelry preferences, the pieces that we never take off—sleeping, swimming, showering, and all, and the pieces reserved for special occasions that still hold a place in our heart.
Jordan Rossman, Managing Editor
"I'm not one to switch out my jewelry—it's just never been my thing! So, when I find pieces I love, I'm willing to invest. Lately, my daily jewels have remained pretty simple: my Cartier watch (which was passed down to me from my dad), a pinky ring from Dorsey, my wedding rings, and a pair of diamond studs from Blue Nile. The simple combination makes me feel good everyday, without having to fuss! If I want to spice it up for a special occasion, I'll grab my tennis necklace from Ring Concierge or a beaded number from Lié Studio."
Ella O'Keeffe, Senior Fashion Editor
"I don't defer much from my daily drivers when it comes to jewelry, and I'm certainly a minimalist even then. That being said, there are a few items that rarely leave my person: My cross necklace inherited from my great aunt (I am not religious but have always been obsessed with religious imagery), my Trinity ring, a silver band, and medium silver hoops which I sleep and shower in. If I am going out, I will add my Agmes Giselle Cuff or a classic vintage Cartier tank with a leather strap."
Natasha Sherdian, Social Creative Lead
"I used to be all about the necklace stack—the more, the merrier. But the older I get, the more I find myself reaching for timeless, minimalist jewelry pieces that I can wear every day and never have to think about. There are a few key pieces that I haven't taken off in years, and if I did, I'd feel naked. My Mejuri huggie earrings haven't left my ears in over three years, and my newest addition, my tennis bracelet, is one of those pieces I know will never go out of style. (Jennifer Meyer is worth the investment, IMO.) Even though they're small, they're mighty."
Kala Herh, Social Strategy Lead
"My jewelry philosophy has always been rooted in the idea that less is more, which is why I’m naturally drawn to timeless, minimalist pieces. The one piece I never take off is my Tiffany & Co. diamond pendant. There’s something so effortless about a simple platinum chain and round brilliant diamond. It feels like the perfect finishing touch without ever overpowering an outfit. Whether I’m wearing it on its own or layering it with other delicate chains, it has become my everyday signature and the kind of piece I know I’ll treasure for years to come."
Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
"My jewelry ethos has been evolving as of late. I was a steadfast silver girl for most of my life and I've been dabbling in metal mixing, with my statement Jennifer Fisher Chavez Cuff leading the way. This summer, I've been very into maximal jewelry: stacked bracelets, stacked necklaces, and rings on every finger. My staple pieces (my David Yurman DY Madison chain bracelet, my heart-shaped Gucci ring, and my mini Georg Jensen Mercy Ring—all gifts from my mom!) stay on, with pieces from brands like Stone Fruit, Eliette, Common Era, Miraki and Heaven Mayhem rotating out."
McKenzie Stoute, Editorial Assistant
"When it comes to jewelry, I gravitate towards pieces I can dress up or dress down and don't need to worry about taking off every day. I wear my rings from Mejuri at all times. They're perfectly understated and so comfortable I forget that I'm wearing them. To transition an outfit to night, I'll throw a statement piece on top of my everyday jewelry, like chandelier earrings or a chunky bracelet, which is so effortless but can completely change an outfit."
