ShopLately Favorites: Gorgeous Handmade Rose Gold Accessories

Affiliate Links Press Samples

What do y'all think about rose gold? Personally I love it—sometimes yellow gold can look a bit "off" on my skin, but rose gold is really pretty and flattering, I think. If you're also a fan, you're in luck! This month I've combed through ShopLately's vast catalog of jewelry and picked a few of my favorite rose gold baubles to share. (Hint hint: Know someone else who loves rose gold? Holiday gift ideas!)

New to ShopLately? Here's what you need to know:

  • ShopLately is an online marketplace featuring a variety of designers and merchants. Think Etsy or eBay, except fashion and beauty-focused, plus much easier to navigate. Hooray! You'll find a mixture of handmade, indie goodies and mass-produced brands in the marketplace.
  • The site has new arrivals and special sales pretty much every week. One of this week's special events is A Touch Of Handmade, where a bunch of ShopLately's best handmade merchants are offering their wares at a discount!
  • See tons of stuff you want to buy on the site? ShopLately has something called the Insider Program, which only costs $9 per year (with a 30 day free trial) and gets you FREE SHIPPING on all items. Think Amazon Prime for awesome baubles but way, way cheaper! (ShopLately items are only available to be shipped within the US at this time, just FYI.)
  • New customers can get $10 credit towards their first purchase of $15+ by signing up via Facebook through my referral link.

As I mentioned above, one of this week's sales is focused on merchants who create beautiful handmade goodies. I was giving the site a good browse a couple of weeks ago, and couldn't help but notice the abundance of amazing rose gold jewelry made by seller Rivkasmom, so I picked out a few of my favorites from that shop to share with you—hope you like them as much as I do!


18k Rose Gold Lovebirds Necklace ($14.99 $19.99):

Rivkasmom Shoplately 18k Rose Gold Lovebirds Necklace birds

Two adorable lovebirds perched on a branch, hung delicately from an 18" chain. I was really impressed by the level of detail on this necklace, and couldn't resist because it's just so darn cute. Not sure if I have anyone who is shopping for a female significant other reading, but if so I think this would make a lovely gift for your sweetheart.


Czech Turquoise Pendant ($19.99 $29.99):

A beautiful turquoise glass drop pendant, put together with rose gold components made the seller. I'm a really bit fan of turquoise, and I think it just goes so well with the rose gold—not to mention the amazing floral and butterfly design molded into it:

It feels sort of vintage to me. Maybe because I had a stationery set with a similar motif when I was a kid, heh.


Rose Gold Spike Buckle ($4.99 $8.99):

And now for something a bit different! I tend to think "delicate" when I think of rose gold for whatever reason, but this bracelet is thick and maybe even sort of edgy? It's constructed of several metal plates with spikes (and even a faux buckle) molded into it, but is quite easy to take on and off because the plates are held together with elasticized bands. Handy! Since this has a fair bit of stretch, I think it's definitely a "one size fits most" sort of deal.


Stretch Skullie Ring ($5.99):

Speaking of elastics, this ring is also stretchy! The sizing guide on the product page says that this will probably fit ring sizes between 6 and 8. 5. All I can say is that I wear a 7 on my ring finger and this fits me great. Rivkasmom actually included this as a little bonus item with my order, and I was really grateful because there was a bunch of adorable skull-themed jewelry in her shop that I was considering pretty hard. I'm looking at you, Tricolor Skullies necklace and Mini-Migrane earrings. Perhaps next time!


Of course Rivkasmom isn't the only seller on ShopLately to offer gorgeous rose gold pieces—check out this gorgeous ring by Anci Decor Jewelry!


Wide Rose Gold Stacking Ring ($25.00):

Anci Decor has a variety of engraved metal jewelry including rings, necklaces, bracelets, etc. I chose this "Love More" ring because... well... we could all love more! This particular ring is about 1/2" inch wide and quite comfy to wear. It's available in three sizes—I picked up a medium because their size guide said it would fit sizes 7-8, and I can confirm that it fits my size 7 finger quite well.


Like what you see? Head on over to the "A Touch of Handmade" sale page for more (ends on 11/24 at 8AM PT). This event isn't just limited to rose gold, by the way—tons of different handmade baubles are included. I don't know about you, but I've always appreciated the uniqueness of handmade jewelry as a gift, and since the holidays are coming up ... well, you know what to do. If you are planning some ShopLately purchases, don't forget to sign up for your new customer $10 credit and check out the Insider Program trial for free shipping!

  2. I like the Spike Buckle bracelet! I tend to like a mix of rose gold with other metals. For example, rose gold and silver look really nice together.

  4. I agree! The seller who makes the spike bracelet also has a necklace with different-colored metal skulls and it's awesome. I love the necklaces I got but I wish I had that one too, haha! :)
