The Gold Necklace Search Is On

September 18, 2019 In Accessories/Shoes, My Wardrobe Essentials, Style

14k gold necklaces

This summer, I lost my two favorite delicate gold necklaces. (The two shorter ones in the above photo.) In the midst of all the terrible things happening in the world right now, I realize that losing a couple of necklaces probably isn’t the biggest deal, but I’ll be straight with you, I was pretty devastated. I’m no stranger to losing really important pieces of jewelry, but I’ve been lucky in the past and found them. (I still can’t believe I found that diamond band BURIED IN THE SAND AT THE BEACH 6 HOURS LATER.)

Unfortunately, I don’t think I will experience the same luck this time around because I’m almost 100% positive my necklaces are somewhere in Breckenridge, Colorado. #wompwomp

Naturally, I’ve started looking for lovely gold necklaces to grace my lonely, deprived neck and I’m happy to report that there are many. This retailer is a favorite (both lost necklaces purchased there), as well as here and here.

love how delicate these necklaces are

I figured I might as well share what I’ve found during my searches. Here are some of my favorite gold necklaces, some solid 14k and some plated to fit varied budgets.

What are some of your favorite jewelry retailers? Would love to hear about your favorites!
