The Best Affordable Jewelry Brands to Add to Your Collection ASAP
Whether you’re here for the Y2K jewelry trend or all about timeless, dainty pieces you can layer, the best affordable jewelry brands on the market offer rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings you'll want to add to your everyday ~lewk~.
Yes, fine jewelry is #goals, but tons of buzzy brands are putting out fun and stylish designs that are fun to indulge in, easier on the wallet, and more fitting for everyday wear—think gold vermeil chains, chunky dome rings, pretty pearl pieces, and colorful drop earrings. Many even offer high-quality adornments made from solid yellow gold, silver, and rose gold with legit diamonds, gemstones, and pearls, if you’re looking for a more investment-worthy style at a better price point. No matter if you lean minimalist, classic, or full-on maximalist, there’s undoubtedly a budget-friendly bauble for you.
As for styling jewelry at affordable prices, we’re partial to the look of classic pieces featuring bolder styles with bright colors, playful beads, acetate, and more. When skewing timeless, consider layering a few pendants with a sleek snake chain or seed pearl strand. Or mix and match delicate studs with gold hoops for a modern vibe. All about bracelets? Try piling on the retro-inspired chains, and mix in a tennis bracelet for a hint of shimmer. A signet ring reads Bridgerton-chic, and when leaning into the ’90s or ’00s look, have fun with a cute anklet or two—for an even bigger statement, go for the body chain.
Once you have your bling in hand, consider investing in an eye-candy-level jewelry box for safekeeping. Ready to shop? Ahead, discover the 12 best affordable jewelry brands to dial up your look.
