Hunt for Unique Jewelry
"Find a piece of timeless vintage jewelry that speaks to you," says Catharine Becket, a specialist in Sotheby's jewelry department. "A great Art Deco bracelet is just as chic today as it was 80 years ago, and you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing it’s something very rare, possibly even one-of-a-kind." Hunt for such a piece at thrift and vintage stores, ebay.com, auction houses and estate sales. A great treasure like Lauren Conrad’s bold cuff can take an outfit from basic to stunning.
