I'm a sucker for a nice pair of hoop earrings. But me? I don't want them to be the standard, predictable, solid gold or solid silver jumpoffs. If these are the earrings that I'll wear on a near-daily basis, they need to be positively fly. And that's why I fell HARD for the Avanessi hoop earrings pictured at top (from the brand's Knot Collection).
Available in 14k rose gold, yellow gold or white gold, the Knot Hoop earrings are part of a collection that utilizes the knot as a symbol of romantic commitment (kind of like "tying the knot," if you will). Of course, you can always give the knot detail your own personal interpretation — maybe it speaks to your bring people together or your belief that everything in the universe is interconnected. But whatever you want that knot to symbolize, one thing is certain: it adds a flair to these simple hoops, making them decidedly intriguing in the most subtle of ways.
If you're a tireless romantic, you might also appreciate Avanessi's Love Pendants, also available in 14k white, yellow and rose gold. Each pendant measures an inch in length and features a diamond detail at the end, punctuating the final cursive letter. LeAnn Rimes is apparently a huge fan of her pendant, which she was spotted wearing it at the announcement of the nominees for 44th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards.
