I am no stranger to the allure of dazzling diamonds, shimmering sapphires, enchanting emeralds and radiant rubies. I’ve gone wide-eyed with wonder over pretty platinum pieces, and I don’t even try to hide my excitement for rose gold! That said, loving all things luxe can get a bit pricey, and cutting costs without compromising on style is a skill I’ve worked hard to perfect. But I didn’t do it alone. Sites like Derng.com have helped quite a bit!

A friend recently introduced me to bib necklaces from Derng.com, and at just $11 and $12 apiece (yes, you read that right!), I don’t see any reason not to grab one of each. For less than the tax you’ll pay on one designer bracelet you can score infinity bracelets in gold, silver and rose gold, and grab an infinity necklace while you’re at it. If I wasn’t already loving the infinity jewelry trend, I would be now!

The bib necklaces from Derng.com are also worthy of checking out and the chunky chain link jewelry is among the boldest and brightest I’ve seen. A definite step up from most of the fashion jewelry on the market, many of the pieces at Derng are handmade by the owner in her Texas studio. Her ‘About Us’ page tells me that her jewelry has been ordered not only by American fashionistas, but by serious shine-lovers in over 50 countries! With that kind of reach, I can’t help but think Derng will be around for quite some time. And that’s a very good thing, because I can’t wait to see what jewelry trend is next.
