We often relate Valentine’s Day with expensive over the top, symbolic jewelry gifts. But we’re here to tell you it doesn’t have to be that way. People are leaning towards chic simplicity in all ways. So we’ve curated a list of items that will provide your love with a light, clean and stylish aesthetic that won’t cost a fortune- ranging as low as $40 to $600. Edgy chic Ear cuffs being the star of the show today! Heavy statement jewelry may be a thing of the past as we are seeing the trend move towards the subtle and delicate pieces.
Valentine’s Day is a time to celebrate all the loves of your life with fabulous gifts. Friends included! Let’s be honest, it’s easier to shop for our friends than it is the men in our lives sometimes. Not to mention a little more fun too!
Ear Cuffs
Ear cuffs are an edgy but classy choice for the ladies in your life. They add that element of interest to the look of your overall accessories. A simple lightweight dainty hoop that wraps around the ridge of your ear. No piercings necessary.
A perfect gift for all the ladies: girlfriend, wife, mother, daughter, gal pals or why not a gift to yourself. They range from $40 to $300 in gold vermeil to 14k gold. It’s one of those subtle embellishments that take those accessories to the next level in a clean and minimal way.

- Bold ear cuff just $40
- The Infinity ear cuff is my favorite $60
- A dainty mini circle ear cuff for the girl who likes simplicity $150
- Bold ear cuff with diamonds $300
How I Styled My Ear Cuff
My ear cuff has turned into that jewelry piece that I keep on all day and night! Swapping out hoops or studs depending on how I’m feeling for the day. For this #OOTD I styled mine with a crawler and jacket back style earring for elegance with edge.
Rings
Which brings us to the bonus round in gift ideas. Can one ever have too many rings? We think not, especially when stackables are such a trend right now. Our top choices are again simple in style and add a cool and modern vibe. Lightweight, elegant and simplistic conversation pieces for the girl who doesn’t need a lot of bling.
Necklaces
Delicate necklaces that you can easily layer is one of my favorite things to do right now. These can all be mixed and matched to create unique looks. If the lady in your life is minimalist in their jewelry style these are a great choice.
- Lariat necklaces are pretty and delicate for an everyday necklace.
- Diamond bezel necklaces are such a great starter for layered looks. This one would look great paired with the Connection necklace.
- Perfect for the moon lovers the crescent moon pendant necklace!
My Top Four for Simple Everyday Wear
- Kendra Scott is always a winner when selecting gifts for the lady in your life.
- Zodiac coin necklace perfect for Galentine’s. In fact, it was a gift from my business partner and soul sis. What’s your sign?
- Simple ear cuff
- Open link ring is perfect for a stackable look or worn on your pointer finger.
