#italo jewelry

[csuitebitches]

Hello! I'm a recent follower and have been loving your advice.

I would like to know more about the good quality jewelry you spoke about in one of your asks, do you have more recommendations on where to buy them? I would love to know more about how to recognize them too.

Thank you!

I know a couple of websites that my friends have bought from like Italo jewellery but I’ve never purchased from them. I don’t want to recommend websites or stores that I haven’t personally purchased from, even if someone close to me has had a good experience.

I don’t wear or buy fake/ plated accessories; everything has to be as pure as possible, whether it’s gold, diamonds, gemstones or otherwise. Therefore I never purchase online and i avoid designer jewellery like Tiffany or whatever like the plague (the only exception being my van cleef pendant which I adore). I have a seller who lives in the next city to mine who sends his collections to my home, my family has had a relationship with him for many years- we get everything customised and purchase only from him and my aunt who also happens to be a jeweller.

01.24.23-01.31.23— Week 18 [Venice, IT, pt 1]

We made it to Venice. I had low expectations of Venice and thought it might be cheesy and campy. I was blown away by how lovely, quaint, true to character, and comfortable it was. I am not so sure it would so lovely in the summer with a mob of tourists. But in the winter, as cold as it was for us, it was perfection. We’d initially booked our apartment for three nights and extended to five.

We departed from the Milano Centrale station. The kids were able to enjoy the Italo lounge prior to boarding, which gave them a bird’s eye view of all the platform. Hero was beside himself with excitement. When we arrived in Venice, he wanted a photo by the station platforms.

Walking out of the Venice train station was picturesque. The sun was shining and we immediately caught sight of the Grand Canal. Our 20-minute walk to the apartment through the cobblestone streets and narrow alleys had us constantly stopping and “wow”ing. The up-and-down steps of the mini canal bridges were not as awesome but since the weather was so lovely and the scene so different than anything we’d ever experienced, it was tolerable.

That evening I went for a walk to some stores [and for a break] and then called the kids to see if they were comfortable walking from the apartment to meet me. Atlas was eager, he loves to explore. Hero was nervous but he will go along for food. We met at the Rialto bridge for some pictures. And then Atlas eagerly settled on a tourist-trap restaurant. But we enjoyed sitting along the canal for dinner.

On our first morning in Venice, we just went for a long walk to acquaint ourselves with the neighborhood. First, we walked to the Grand Canal to see the Rialto bridge. Every day of our visit to Venice, Hero insisted on sitting on the steps and watching the waves made by the boats.

We made our way to the Saint Marks Basilica and the Doge Palace. They only tolerated me reading a little Wikipedia to them about the sites; they were not interested in museum visits. They decided that there were three types of boats to ride in Venice: a bus boat, a taxi boat, and a gondola. They were relentless in convincing me to ride a taxi boat so we took one from Venice to San Murano Island, a 25-minute ride.

Per their usual MO, once we landed on the island they immediately wanted to eat again so we stopped for a snack and a few games of Uno before walking around the island. San Murano is known for its glass blowing and each shop had beautiful displays of glass art, jewelry, and house decor. A few of the shops had artists working with the blow torch.

What are some inexpensive jewelry pieces worth purchasing?

By inexpensive I understand that you mean stuff that isn’t fully real. I don’t buy anything that’s not real, but a website you could check out is Italo Jewellery.

I know that Nomberry is like a luxury repurposer, but I’ve read reviews saying that their stuff can be fake. And for the prices that they offer, it’s honestly a good bargain.

However, I’ve never purchased anything from either of these websites, so buy carefully.

If you’re talking about the types of pieces itself, then you should consider buying as a beginner:

1. Diamond tennis bracelet

2. A gold bangle

3. A pair of solitaire earrings

4. A simple pendant for everyday wear

5. A beautiful watch

The Lord giveth, the Lord taketh: Italy won the Euros, and now the only thing YouTube recommends to me is this lady who talks with a stereotypical and exaggerated Italo-American accent, says that to “look Italian” you need to wear costume jewelry, and “teaches” people how to cook American dishes telling them they’re “true Italian” ones.
