In the last month of 2024, my inbox remains overstuffed. Turquoise, tanzanite, and topaz—a terrific trio for those born this month—have been shared bountifully, while a very complementary cavalry of Mocha Mousse jewels has reignited our love of all things earthy and brown.
Thanks to the highly publicized engagement of Selena Gomez, elongated gemstones—particularly marquise cuts—have come on like an avalanche (though we’ve been talking about them for months).
Here are some jewels to carry us into 2025. They’re giftable but enduring, on trend but with everlasting style. Happy New Year, and may your holidays shine as bright as these jewels!
