Lindsay Earrings

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Lindsay Earring is the perfect combination between the Kate Earrings and the Waverly Earrings. A little larger than the size of a nickel, these earrings are the perfect match to anything! Great for bridesmaids or perfect to dress up during the holidays!

Price: $52.00

King Family Vineyards Wedding

These ladies in red look beautiful against the Blue Ridge Mountains at King Family Vineyards in Charlottesville, Va.  I loved working with Lindsay Doswell Forston to design a special pair of earrings for her 12 bridesmaids and 2 flower girls. She loved the look of the Kate Earrings, but she was think that she’d like the smaller – similar to the Waverly Earrings. So, we decided it would be best to combine the two pairs of earrings and create the Lindsay Earring. We also designed simple small pearl studs for her flower girls.  Congrats to you both!

Earrings in Silver and Monterey Blue

Congrats to Caitlin and Coley who were married in Savannah, Georgia this past summer. Caitlin chose custom blue and silver teardrop earrings to match the bridesmaid’s Coren Moore dresses.  I love how soft and vibrant the syle looks.

Pink Coral Bridesmaids

Recently, I blogged about Betsy Wallace’s wedding and the beautiful white coral earrings she chose for herself for her wedding day.  Her bridesmaids also wore similar coral chard earrings, but in pink coral! I love the way that the coral works with the ocean blue dresses. Photography by Etc.

White Coral Bride

Betsy Wallace’s wedding at Figure 8 Island was lovely and etc. photography captured every detail of the day beautifully.  Betsy wanted a laid-back and natural feel for her jewelry andshe chose a custom design earring of wrapped white coral.  I think it was the perfect choice for a beach wedding.
