A coordinated bridal party is the sum of its parts; if the parts don’t match, the overall look is diminished. Choosing matching jewelry ensures a cohesive appearance and a happier you. Gift your bridesmaids wedding earrings from Borsheims that highlight their individuality while maintaining balance with the rest of the group. 

Gold Bridesmaid Earrings

When deciding on gold bridesmaid earrings, three elegant options present themselves: yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold. Yellow gold is supreme for warm-toned dresses such as burgundy, olive green, and mustard yellow. Yellow gold also brings out the vibrancy of earthy tones and deep jewel colors, making it a multifaceted choice for both autumn and winter weddings. White gold, on the other hand, is an excellent match for cool-toned dresses, including shades of blue, purple, and gray. It also coordinates well with pastel hues like blush pink, mint green, and lavender, ensuring a soft finish appropriate for spring weddings. The romantic pinkish tint of rose gold complements a variety of dress colors, especially those with golden undertones such as blush pink, peach, and coral. Rose gold also renders a stunning contrast to navy blue or emerald green dresses. We particularly love the subtlety of the rose gold huggies shown. Mixed metal designs blend varieties of gold, making it easy to match different dress colors within your bridal party. Never fear, mixed metals create diversity without sacrificing unity.

Pearl Bridesmaid Earrings

The allure of pearls is everlasting, especially when crafted as studs. Bridesmaid stud earrings are an unfailing option because of their versatility. Plus, they provide worry-free movement and dancing without the risk of tangling. We can’t get enough of pearl cluster earrings, and we’re confident you won’t either when you choose them for your bridal party. Their floral motifs are ideal for spring and summer weddings, but we wouldn’t dare isolate them to a particular season because they’re gorgeous all year round

Blue Bridesmaid Earrings

Whether your wedding theme incorporates shades of blue or you wish to honor the “something blue” tradition, blue bridesmaid earrings are just the thing. These earrings aren’t just for wedding day; they can be worn for years to come. If sapphire is any of your maids’ birthstones, these inside out hoop earrings are a win-win. Gemstones like aquamarine, tanzanite and blue topaz would also go along swimmingly with this color palette. For additional blue gemstone jewelry to pair, explore this post.

Fashion Bridesmaid Earrings

Fashion brands offer affordable bridesmaid earrings to get your girls through wedding day and beyond. Crystal earrings can mimic diamonds, presenting a similar brilliance. These pieces often showcase new designs, unique materials, and trendy elements for your modern occasion. Consider complementing your black-tie affair with bridesmaid drop earrings. Shop Borsheims’ collection of stylish, high-quality fashion earrings at competitive value.

Bridesmaid Necklace and Earring Set

As best practices for styling bridesmaid earrings with an accompanying necklace, select jewelry that complements rather than competes, and confirm the metals match. Also factor in the dress’s neckline and the bridesmaids’ chosen hairstyles.

Disorganized jewelry can be quite noticeable and is one of the last things you want to worry about before your big day. Visit our flagship store in Omaha’s Regency district, where our jewelry experts will help you select your bridesmaids’ jewelry at any price point.

What Does the Evil Eye Mean in Jewelry? https://www.borsheims.com/blog/what-does-the-evil-eye-mean-in-jewelry/ Tue, 25 Jun 2024 18:30:44 +0000 https://www.borsheims.com/blog/?p=15739 Read more about evil eye jewelry which protects wearers from any ill will wished upon them.

The post What Does the Evil Eye Mean in Jewelry? appeared first on Borsheims.

]]>

After 2020, the theme all around seems to be no bad vibes, so it’s no surprise that a symbol designed to protect the wearer is in the limelight of stylish jewelry.  

Evil Eye Meaning

The evil eye is associated with envy and jealousy, and it is believed that these negative emotions cause harm to others. By wearing evil eye jewelry, one may protect themselves from the effects; the eye acts as a shield, reflecting the illwill back onto the onlooker.

Belief in the evil eye is not limited to any single religion or culture. It is found in different forms across various civilizations, including Greek, Roman, Jewish, Arabic, and Hindu cultures. Many societies adorn their children with the symbol because, as innocent as they are, they are more likely to attract envious glances that could bring trouble. Evil eye amulets are commonly exchanged as gifts during important life events as a way of expressing wishes of safety and happiness.  

Is the Evil Eye Good or Bad?

The concept of the evil eye has a dual nature—it is both a negative force and a protective symbol. While the evil eye curse is considered harmful, the evil eye symbol, particularly in the form of jewelry, is employed as a protective measure to ward off the very misfortunes associated with the curse.

Evil Eye Color Meaning

Typically, evil eye jewelry features a blue eye motif, though it can also appear in other colors. A red evil eye is said to fuel passion and drive, as its strong color wards off fear and provides additional strength to the wearer. Orange evil eyes are believed to uplift spirits, foster emotional healing, and inspire artistic endeavors. A yellow evil eye brings happiness and good fortune, linked to improved health and the breaking of negative patterns. Wearing a green evil eye is thought to attract harmony, restore balance, and promote feelings of love and well-being. Spirituality, wisdom, and enlightenment are the supposed virtues of a purple evil eye. A black evil eye offers power and preparation for the unknown. And lastly, a white evil eye signifies purity and focus, helping to clear obstacles and bring about mental clarity. 

No matter the color, each variation of the evil eye symbol is designed with the intent to protect and nurture the wearer through its specific attributes. 

Evil Eye Necklaces

The placement of the evil eye pendant close to the heart lends a formidable guard against envious gazes, instilling a sense of security in the wearer. Deepen your spiritual journey by layering your evil eye necklace with other significant emblems. Pairing an evil eye with a hamsa necklace brings together two powerful markers of defense. The pictured yellow gold evil eye necklace is a classic Grecian style made from enamel.

Evil Eye Earrings

The proximity of evil eye earrings to the head extends a direct line of defense, creating a protective aura surrounding one’s thoughts and ideas. A fusion of ancient tradition and twenty-first century artistry makes this fine jewelry truly exceptional. The tsavorite garnets in the evil eye stud earrings shown are mesmerizing surrounded by a halo of diamonds.

Evil Eye Rings

There are no strict rules regarding which finger should wear the evil eye symbol. The placement of the ring on the thumb is associated with freedom and individualityMeanwhile, the index finger, or pointer finger, is connected to leadership and ambition. The middle finger is a powerful position, being centrally located, that is associated with balance and responsibility, signifying stability in one’s decisions and actions. Wearing the evil eye on the ring finger can be a fitting choice for those seeking to fortify their emotional well-being and romantic connections. Regardless of your choice, it should be one that reflects individual desires, comfort, and style preferences.

Evil Eye Bracelets

Stacking your evil eye bracelet with multiple jewelry styles can create a personalized and dynamic look. For a chic, bohemian effect, fashion it with complementary pieces like station and mixed metal bracelets. You may consider incorporating additional charms into the mix that hold personal weight. For a more elegant approach, pair an evil eye bracelet with a minimalistic watch.

Exploring new trends can often introduce special practices into our daily lives. Consider evil eye protection for your next gifting occasion and give more than just the tangible.

As an authorized watch dealer, we carry the trust of our designers in every transaction and the knowledge and services to be the one and only destination for your timepiece.

Though, don’t be mistakenNomos has a tradition of handmade watchmaking that spans over 175 years. Made in Germany, made with precision, and made just for Dad. 

Seiko Essentials 39mm Men's Watch, White Dial

A Sports Watch

A Seiko watch is where strength meets style. It is the premier choice for a men’s athletic watch built with active dads in mind. Seiko stands out especially in the realm of athletics, frequently sported by two of its ambassadors: MLB star Shohei Ohtani and tennis talent Novak Djokovic.  

TAG Heuer is celebrated for originality in the niche of sports watches because of its association with the Olympic Games and motor racing. The Carrera collection, inspired by the illustrious Carrera Panamericana auto race, is ideal for dads who have a passion for motorsports. Alternatively, TAG’s water-resistant Aquaracer line is a prime option for fathers who partake in water sports or enjoy the maritime lifestyle.  

Montblanc 1858 Automatic Date 41mm Men's Watch, Iced Sea Dial

An Adventure Watch

Enjoy rugged reliability with a watch from Breitling. Any watch from the Navitimer, Superocean, and Superocean Heritage lines will give peace of mind to any dad in motion. Breitling watches are renowned for being durable and stylish (yes), but—above all—cutting-edge. The brand’s aim is to create a “legendary future” accomplished in part through digitalization. The move in 2020 to introduce a blockchain-backed digital passport for all new Breitling watches was a significant advancement. Elevate Dad into the twenty-first century with a watch that can go with him anywhere and function beyond his imagination.  

Did you know that you can actually use a watch in place of a compass? Montblanc—a company that takes their name from the highest peak in the Alps—has pioneered the 1858 collection—a series inspired by the spirit of mountain exploration. These watches often come equipped with (see product details for specifics) a compass bezel, dual time zones, and a chronograph, providing reliability in the most challenging environments. You may already know Montblanc for their high-quality writing instruments, which make thoughtful Father’s Day gifts, but their watches are equally as exceptional.

Bell & Ross has a penchant for precision and a bold, state-of-the-art style. Their timepieces are inspired by the instrumentation found in aircraft cockpits, making them highly readable and especially trusty. If Dad isn’t in the armed forces but he values military grade engineering, a Bell & Ross watch is still a gift he will appreciate. Each time he straps on his force of nature, he will have an all-purpose tool that merges practicality with refinement.  

Omega Seamaster Diver 300m Co-Axial Master Chronometer 43.5mm Men's Watch, Black Dial

An Extreme Watch

From seas to skies and everything in between, an Omega watch is prepped for action. So much so that a watch from the iconic Speedmaster collection was the first ever worn into space. So you better believe it can survive anything Dad tackles, like those Saturday morning projects.  

James Bond popularized Omega’s Seamaster, but it’s favored by divers because it’s water resistant. Various models offer capabilities to withstand depths up to 2,000 feet. Those such as the Diver and Planet Ocean feature a helium-escape valve, allowing divers to safely release any helium that may infiltrate the watch during prolonged underwater excursions. Go to great lengths for Dad by giving him a watch that will do just the same.  

Custom Engraving

Engraved gifts for men go a long way. Inquire about your engraving options by phoning us at 402-391-0400 or heading to our flagship store in Omaha’s Regency district. 

A watch may be a man’s first taste of luxury, so do it right with a Father’s Day watch from Borsheims. Book a private in-store or virtual appointment online today and let our watch experts can help you find the best watch for Dad this Father’s Day.

The Best Affordable Watch Brands for Men https://www.borsheims.com/blog/best-affordable-watch-brands/ Mon, 21 Nov 2022 08:00:00 +0000 https://www.borsheims.com/blog/?p=5541 Learn about the best affordable watch brands for men now!

The post The Best Affordable Watch Brands for Men appeared first on Borsheims.

]]>

For the practical shopper in search of affordable luxury, we’ve rounded up a list of the top affordable watch brands. From American-made classics to Swiss staples, you’ll also find a hand-picked selection of the best casual, everyday watches for men under $1,000, just in time for the holidays!

Seiko

Seikosha, as it was originally called, started out making wall clocks in Tokyo, Japan, in the early 1880s. In 1895, Seikosha created its first pocket watch, and then in 1913, it produced Japan’s first-ever wristwatch. From there, Seiko went on to make many major advances in watchmaking and is now one of the most recognizable names in watches. Perhaps Seiko’s most significant contribution to the watch industry came in 1969 with the introduction of the world’s first quartz watch, the Seiko Quartz Astron. This significant accomplishment kicked off a series of international firsts for the brand, including the world’s first diver’s watch with a titanium case, which set a new standard for diver’s watches. Today, Seiko watches are known and admired for their rich history, timeless design and incredibly innovative movements.

Shinola

Established in Detroit in 2011, Shinola possesses an unwavering dedication to quality craftsmanship and developing products that are built to last. Shinola also demonstrates a steadfast commitment to its local community and restoring jobs in America. Because of this, all Shinola watches are Swiss quality but hand-assembled in the United States. A luxury watch brand with a more affordable price tag, Shinola offers a wide selection of casual watches with leather straps, and most Shinola watches are under $1,000.

Tissot

Tissot is a Swiss watchmaker founded in 1853 by a father-son duo in Le Locle, Switzerland. From technical advancements to design, Tissot watches have a reputation for quality, reliability, and innovation, as evidenced by the company’s slogan, “Innovators by Tradition.” Tissot was responsible for the first mass-produced pocket watch and introduced the first pocket watch with two time zones. Tissot was also the first to produce watches out of plastic, stone, mother of pearl, and wood.

From cycling and motor sports to ice hockey and beyond, Tissot is very involved in the world of sports on an international scale. Perhaps most famously, Tissot has served as the official watch of the NBA since 2015 and boasted brand ambassadors such as Tony Parker, Klay Thompson, and Trae Young.

Hamilton

Having supplied timepieces for the railroad, aviators, and armed forces, Hamilton has a rich history that began in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in 1892. Known as the “movie brand,” Hamilton watches have a close association with Hollywood and first appeared on the silver screen in 1932. The Hamilton Ventura watch is a particularly iconic piece made popular by Elvis Presley in the film, Blue Hawaii

Innovation has been one of the biggest keys to Hamilton’s success, with significant developments emerging in the mid 20th century that changed the world of watchmaking forever. In 1957, the Ventura Watch became the world’s first electric watch powered by a battery. Pulsar, the world’s first LED digital watch, followed in 1970.
