Is a special man in your life a music mogul in the making, or simply appreciative of the blinding bling so many in the industry dazzlingly decorate themselves with? FantasyJewelryBox.com is proud to present a growing collection of hip hop jewelry that brings the same beautiful, bold looks the stars wear for thousands (or hundreds of thousands!) less. To add an even bigger hit to our impressive line-up, we’ll even ‘wrap’ it for you for just a few bucks!

Spectacular sterling silver and crystal clear CZs combine to bring the look of platinum and diamonds to these Hip Hop Rings. Absolutely drenched in sparkling stones, this ring is fit for a King, with a clean look and unstoppable style.

Adding an intriguing design dimension and elegant collection of colors are these Hip Hop Bracelets. Clear cubic zirconia stones combine with chocolate brown stones and vibrant yellow stones to create a pattern that is awesome from every angle. While these bracelets are fitting for the most celebrated hip hop artist in the business, they also possess a polished power that should find itself at home with any confident man, whether he spends more time behind the mic or behind a desk.

On the jewelry hunt for something beaded and beautiful? We don’t blame you, darling! And we also don’t plan to punish you with outrageous prices. As your reward for being stylish and awesome, FantasyJewelryBox.com is prepared to bring you an outstanding assortment of Faux Pearl Bracelets that will practically jump off your wrist with luxurious luster, for a price that doesn’t even come close to breaking the bank. See? We can be pretty awesome too!

If pearl bracelets are like children and you aren’t supposed to pick a favorite, I’m a bad bracelet Mommy. Don’t tell the other bracelets, but these Purple Pearl Stretch Bracelets are totally my must-have, hands-down pick of the pack! I adore them all, and have an ideal outfit for each, but if I could only have one, this is it. I lean toward jewel-tones for my clothing, with my favorite neutrals being charcoal gray and burgundy, so this bracelet looks beautiful no matter what I pair it with. It looks amazingly elegant with deep, rich reds, fun and flirty with bright blues and greens, and polished and practical with white and gray. That’s a lot of wearability for a bracelet that’s less than $20!

Coming in at a close second for my faux favorite are our Aqua Pearl Stretch Bracelets. Awash with a watery shade of blue, these are both fashionable and fresh. With a luxurious look that far outpaces their modest price, these faux pearl bracelets can easily hold their own as the only jewelry you wear, or work effortlessly with many other pieces. I personally love them stacked with the purple bracelets above – if your style leans toward chunky and funky they look amazing together!

As summer winds down and discount stores begin filling their aisles with pencils and notebooks, we move closer to the time when the air fills with sounds of school bells and the streets become home to those big yellow buses. Ah yes, Back to School is upon us! And while it’s been a few years since I have done any back-to-school shopping for myself, I distinctly remember the rush of all those wonderful new things just waiting to be worn! I remember the importance of the absolutely perfect ‘First Day Outfit’, and the breaking-in period of a new backpack. I remember the brilliantly colored pens and markers, and the return of small bags of chips to the pantry for my lunch. But being a jewelry-lover through and through, I most acutely remember the new shimmer…the new shine…the back to school bling!

Instead of thinking of traditional ‘goes-with-everything’ jewelry to freshen up your gemtastic wardrobe, think instead of what you’ll actually enjoy wearing often. Sure, a simple pair of Cubic Zirconia Stud Earrings are pretty and practical, but if they aren’t really your style, you won’t wear them. Much like everyone’s closet is supposed to contain a white button-down shirt, we are told what our jewelry collection must contain too. But my closet doesn’t have a white button-down shirt, because regardless of how practical it is, I would never wear it! And even though they aren’t as obviously universal as a small set of studs, these Feather Earrings complement my clothes and my style much better. They also make me smile – invest in jewelry that makes you smile! There’s enough in life to be super serious about.

It’s also important to remember that you don’t have to buy a year’s worth of jewelry in one trip. Think of what might make more sense for Spring, and save that for your Christmas list. It will free you up to dedicate more attention to what you’ll be wearing for Fall and Winter, instead of trying to think ahead 7 months.

A FantasyJewelryBox.com Fall Favorite are these vibrant yellow leaf print Wooden Bangles. They have a fresh, organic edge, and work well with many styles of dress. Another seasonal sensation that will work wonderfully for Fall and beyond are these Tiger’s Eye Rings. A cool, cushion shape accents the large genuine stone perfectly, with faceting revealing a texture almost wooden in appearance. Set against a silvertone band, this ring will look amazing for school and the weekend!

Happy Back-to-School Shopping, and Best of Luck for a Fantastic New School Year!

This gorgeous synthetic White Onyx Ring is accented with bold, black enamel making a most beautiful statement piece. I prefer chunky jewelry, and would wear this most often on my ring finger, but it would also make a great middle finger ring with a gorgeous oval shape and silvertone roping framing the center stone. The colors and style make it a great everyday ring, and the price is fantastic!

Go extra bold when you go gold with this gorgeous Champagne CZ Cocktail Ring. The warmth of the metal is wonderfully accented by the peachy emerald-shaped checkerboard stone. Simplicity of style keeps this ring looking classic and contemporary.
