Time flies, memories blur, and the stylish woman collects well-crafted charms to remember her most special occasions.
This season, she will most likely take a curious look at Pandora’s Winter Collection and wonder which charms to add to those in the sterling silver bangle that already coolly rests on her wrist.
The holidays take center stage in the brand’s Facets of Winter series. Imagine saturated ruby, emerald and sapphire-hued colored stones in bangles, rings, earrings and trademark charms that echo the festive mood.
The Timeless Elegance series also has stackable rings that can also be worn solitaire-style. Sapphire blue is a modern alternative, definitely more expressive than somber black. The
ruby-colored stones have pink undertones, while lush emerald rocks provide the classic green of the season.
More playful
The sterling silver jewelry of the Icy Blue series is younger and more playful. Think of charms in opalescent, royal and Swiss blues sparkling on a wrist that’s handing over brightly wrapped gifts to excited children. Or a heart-shaped pendant’s sparks of “fire” on its wearer’s throat as she sings holiday songs.
The Icy Blue series’ Shooting Star pendant and earrings are thin elegant rows of sparkling stones that mimic a meteorite’s trail.
Pandora is also excited about its brand new rose-gold jewelry that blends the blush of rose metallic tone with sterling silver.
Jewelry makers have observed that rose gold resonates with trinket fans more than white or yellow gold at the moment. Probably because it flatters most so-called warm and cool skin tones.
And what could be more jovial than Santa Claus, candy cane or snowflake charms in rose gold? There is also a Christmas tree, a beautifully wrapped gift dotted with tiny crystals and socks that will remind stylish women of holiday presents past.
Intricate designs
Pandora has reserved its Essence Collection for the inspiring and independent woman who sets the holiday mood for her family, co-workers and friends.
The bangles are thinner to better offset the intricate designs and colors of the charms. The Essence Collection is also more special because the bangles, bracelets and charms in the series have hidden messages that the wearer can turn to as the hustle and bustle of the season revs up. One quick glance and the pieces whisper “Optimism,” “Peace” or “Confidence.”
Young girls with a taste for fine jewelry can enjoy iconic Disney charms featuring Mickey and Minnie Mouse and this season’s fave, Lilo and Stitch.
Pandora’s charms are created to tell personal stories not limited to the holidays. They are also great gifts to mark birthdays, engagements, anniversaries and other successes, while ethically sourced materials provide the glow without the guilt.
Pandora now has 25 stores nationwide in Metro Manila, Pampanga and Cebu. Visit pandora.net.
