Shine On

This year it was a kitchen, next year she’ll set her sights on something sparkly.

The diamond doesn’t fall far from the ear lobe.

Start her off with a few pieces from Brooklyn-based duo Atsuyo et Akiko. Their wearable (and affordable) jewelry collection for kids ages 6 months to 6 years includes a delicate brass locket and bird charm necklace, along with simple “daughter” bracelets in woven ribbon and leather combos.

For the ultimate baby bauble, look no further than the heirloom heart ring in fourteen-karat gold with a tiny diamond centerpiece.

The pieces are made to be worn every day — not saved for special occasions — so there’s nothing annoyingly precious about them.

And that’s brilliant.
