Happy Valentine’s Day, anti-Valentine’s Day or day-after-Galentine’s Day<\/a>, y’all! Whatever holiday you celebrate is okay with me. I don’t discriminate!<\/p>\n

Big thanks to Danielle Prescod<\/a> of Elle for including three of my designs in an online feature called “Valentine’s Day\u00a0Jewelry for the Funny Girl<\/a>.” (That’s so perfect. I am passionate about fine jewelry with personality<\/a>.) My “Heart You” gold studs<\/a> are there to represent my sweet side, while my middle finger emoji stud earring<\/a> and IDGAF necklace<\/a> represent my easily-fucking-annoyed side. As Walt Whitman wrote, “I am large — I contain multitudes.” Don’t we all?<\/p>\n

Something for every person and every mood. Click to shop.<\/p><\/div>\n

Do read Danielle’s captions for her Valentine jewelry slideshow<\/a> if you need a laugh. You should also follow Elle<\/a> on Twitter, because the feed is pretty sassy! I LOL’d at these two tweets about the jewelry feature.<\/p>\n

Thanks also to the Gem Standard<\/a>, which also included my IDGAF necklace<\/a> in post called “Valentine’s Day Jewelry for All Moods<\/a>.” The mood I represent is “over it all.” Ha!<\/p>\n

One person who isn’t over it all is Katerina Perez. She still believes in love and promises, and kindly included my Cleves swan ring in her “Guide to Promise Rings<\/a>.” Thanks, Katerina<\/a>!<\/p>\n

I’ll leave you with a good song for the day. Love the one you’re with — even if that’s yourself. Wait, especially if it’s yourself!<\/p>\n
