MTJ Gift Guide: Quiet Luxury
Every season is jewelry gift-giving season. When in doubt, go small, sparkly, and sentimental. Find holiday and milestone gift-giving ideas with our MTJ gift guides. And go ahead, treat yourself once in a while just because.
Simple. Elegant. Polished.
One of the biggest trends for 2023 is the oh-so simple, yet sophisticated “Quiet Luxury”. It consists of elevated basics in subtle color palettes, like a refined heather grey cashmere sweater or a logo free brown leather accessory. It’s by no means a new trend, but has caught on lately for many reasons, including the fact that it can be worn by anyone and can consist of just a few staple pieces, including jewelry. Yellow gold and minimal diamonds in classic to modern designs can elevate one’s already refined ensemble and holiday wish list!
