This morning I shipped off three more initial rings to their recipients, and thought about expanding the my custom initial jewelry line even further. Initial jewelry has been popular this year for bridesmaid gifts, to celebrate relationships, anniversaries and even the birth of children. I've even sold initial jewelry for those looking to commemorate the initials of a special pet. Lots of people simply want to even wear their own initial. I offer my custom initial jewelry in the Miscellanea Collection by Valerie Tyler.

Pretty, Pink, Pastel - Valentines Jewelry Ideas

I'm not always a huge fan of pink. I guess I always want to be a bit "edgier" or "tougher" or something. (as if!) However, I always make an exception for subtle, muted ballet pink. It's almost an earthy, natural tone. It's flattering to most skin colors and sublimely elegant. Here's two of my favorite pieces in more neutral pink:

Gemstone Statement Necklace - Raw Pink Quartz

It's elegant, natural and a versatile long length!
