At The Vintage Pearl, we like to say there is never a bad time to treat yourself! Your birthday is an even better reason! It’s the perfect time to pull the trigger on something you’ve been eyeing or a piece you’ve wanted for years. Consider putting yourself first this year and making it the best birthday yet.

Doing something for yourself should never be frowned upon or scrutinized. You work too hard, and life is too short to take yourself for granted! Buy the shoes! Or eat the cake! Whatever it is, don’t hesitate to do what puts a smile on your own face.

Whether you are the type of girl to stay on top of the trends or simplistic and love to stay in and watch movies, consider getting yourself a personalized piece of jewelry this year.

A sweet piece with a name or initial is great if you are looking for a trendy piece. You can choose your initial or the initial of a loved one to complete a gold or silver chain. Or, look for a piece with a pearl or a dainty charm to complete any outfit, comfy or cute. It’s the best accessory to complete a movie night in or a date night out.

Symbolize reaching another birthday with a pearl, or a sweet flower on the other hand! If you prefer hand jewelry over neck jewelry, try an engraved ring or custom birthstone bracelet.

A custom ring can be personalized with your name or the name of a loved one. However, it can also be as simple as a dainty stacking ring with a birthstone or two.

As for bracelets, you can gift yourself a simple bangle with your name or even a statement piece with multiple charms. Whatever you choose to treat yourself with, make sure you fall in love with it!

No matter what age you’re turning, you should never skip out on making it a special year. Treating yourself to a personalized piece of jewelry is a great way to symbolize all of your hard work and the crazy year that has passed. Let this birthday be one to remember!
